Mrs. Brown lost 3 lbs by eating more protein and logging her food.
Today's post is short and sweet. A client of mine lost 3 lb in the course of 3 days (NOT TYPICAL). The same client had previously been stuck on the same weight for about 3 weeks. The good news was that she been faithfully logging her food and documenting everything that she consumed. This allowed us to have data to see what was keeping her stuck at her current weight. Now, an important side note, unlike most people, this client actually logged everything she put into her mouth. So we had real day to day data. It wasn't, “I had some of this...
Client’s pants don’t fit right, good or bad thing?
The other day I was training a client and he was complaining about how he couldn't find pants that fit right anymore. I know...
Kenna doesn’t want “Sugar” Just like you don’t want a lean trim body…
Just last weekend we celebrated my youngest, Kenna’s 3rd birthday. And as you can imagine there was cake and ice cream and all the sugar a three-year-old could possibly want. But guess what, Kenna said she doesn’t “want” sugar...
How YOU Gain Weight “Mindlessly”
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/15b05d9fb9dbac5d The MINDLESS MARGIN! It is that time of year when you start pulling out some of your spring and summer clothes. Unfortunately, if you're like a lot of people, you don't feel super confident or comfortable as you did at the end of last summer. When you try on those old pants or swimsuits they seem a little snug around the hips and thighs. So what happened? According to Dr. Brian Wansink, the mindless margin happened! Dr. Brian explains that the Mindless Margin is a Zone where we can slightly over eat or slightly under eat and we don't even realize it....
Courtney a long time client of mine got asked for her old clothes : 0!
I won't lie this is a weird story even for me. Courtney has been training with me for about 8 months. One of her co-workers at work approached her and asked if she could have her old, “bigger” spring and summer clothes. I've never heard of anyone asking someone else for their older bigger clothes, crazy right!? But that's what Courtney's friend did :-). I guess Courtney's friends figured that since she was leaner, more fit, and toned she didn't need her old spring and summer clothes that were too big for her now, and she was right :-). Courtney went home...
A Client’s Friend Lost 6 lbs…Want to know how?
A client’s friend lost 6 lbs by following my client’s advice she learned at Just You Fitness. The advice really isn't earth-shattering. My client simply told her friend how I had her logging her food on MyFitnessPal. MyFitnessPal is an app developed by Under Armour that allows you to track your food and it tells you how many calories you consumed and what your Macros are. What makes it even better is that this tool is absolutely 100% free : ). After hearing about how my client has been logging her food and how she's been losing weight and improving her...
Want a Customized Exercise Plan for JUST YOU?
Are you a master planner? This past weekend I help my parents move some of their stuff into a storage unit. I'm sure everyone enjoys moving as much as I do :-). What made the task even more difficult is my dad ordered a truck that was supposed to be bigger than what he actually needed. This was supposed to make it easier to pack and manage. He wouldn’t have to “arrange” and “plan” things as precisely. The problem was when he went to pick up the truck, they didn't have the larger size truck...
How Phillip lost 10 pounds and met his short term goal…while traveling!
Today, I would like to tell you about a stub client of mine named Phillip. When Phillip came to me he wanted to lose weight and look and feel better. The BIG problem Phillip had to overcome was his crazy traveling schedule that would only allow him to see me about 3 times a month. And When I mean crazy traveling schedule, I mean he went to Germany, Texas, Maryland, and countless other places. Like I said, with such a crazy schedule he could only see me about 3 times...
One of my clients failed a medical exam : (…
So, I had a client who had to take an exam to see if she qualified for a new program. She failed, she didn’t get into the program, because she was NO LONGER PRE-DIABETIC! How AWESOME IT THAT! : ) Today’s email is short and sweet. If you want uncommon results you have to put in uncommon, CONSISTENT, effort. It is simple...
Are You Potty Trained?
My daughter is potty training… This week we started potty training my daughter Kenna. Do you know how I found out about it? Kenna came running into the studio wearing nothing but I think, My Little Pony “big kid underwear” and proudly displaying them to me :-). She gave me fist bumps, high-fives, and then she then started doing jumping jacks : ). Why, I have no clue? Needless, to say she was super excited and super proud that she was now going to using the big potty, like big kids. And an added bonus was, she didn't have to wear diapers, she...
