Let’s focus on sustainability and less on quick weight loss. #slowandsteadywinstherace

Consistency is more important than perfection! Strive to incorporate a healthy change in your daily life. One goal could be to add a veggie to every meal. #lifestylechange

[Dr. Spencer Nadolsky @DrNadolsky]

What if instead of looking for diet and exercise “hacks”, we actually focused on the diet and exercise basics that we know to work be consistent with them?

[Sara Bruce @SaraBruceFit]

Consistency is key!! You don’t need to cut out entire food groups to lose weight but rather cut back in portion size or frequency.

[Sara Bruce @SaraBruceFit]

Examine your diet! Is there something calorie dense while not being nutrient dense? Such as a muffin or other processed foods. Cutting these out of daily routine can cut significant amount of calories and lead to weight loss!

Weight loss tip for low carb diets;

Just because you are limiting carbohydrates doesn't mean you have a free pass to to scoff as much dietary fat as you want.

Calories still matter and butter isn't a magical food you should eat in unlimited quantities.

[A Workout Routine @AWorkoutRoutine]

5 FOODS YOU SHOULD NEVER EAT:

1. Foods you don’t like.

2. Foods you have *legitimate* physical issues with (allergy, intolerance, etc.).

3. Foods you have ethical issues with.

4. Foods that make your diet unsustainable.

5. Foods you can’t eat without overeating.

[Jill Coleman @JillFit]

Contrary to what diet culture teaches us, it’s possible to eat for satisfaction while also reaching your goals.

[Sara Bruce @SaraBruceFit]

A great substitute for rice is cauliflower rice! I like to mix half rice and half cauliflower and then you don’t cut the rice out completely but you’re getting a veggie that’ll fill your belly at a lower calorie intake. #happyeating

[Dr. Spencer Nadolsky @DrNadolsky]

I’ve had many patients who lost 20% or more of their body weight by just “eating less.”

I don’t think it’s great advice but apparently it can be done.

They say instead of 4 slices of pizza they would eat 2. Instead of 5 sodas a day they would have 1. So on and so forth.

[Sara Bruce @SaraBruceFit]

Next time you eat out try drinking a glass of water first so that way you are less likely to overeat your meal! Take home the leftovers and enjoy them the next day.

The reason eating citrus fruits appears to protect against cancer may be because of DNA repair enzyme-boosting powers of a compound concentrated in the peel. https://t.co/xhmTzOMQtE

@stirproftip You also carried out the seminal studies showing that the "post-exercise window" is dependent on pre-exercise protein consumption; hence, the concept of a "peri-workout window" 👊💪

Did you know that 44% of couples diagnosed with “infertile” will eventually conceive without use of technology? This is because nutrition has a huge role in the reproductive system. Being deficient in something or over/under weight has an impact on fertility no matter the gender.

[Brad Schoenfeld, PhD @BradSchoenfeld]

Our paper on the "anabolic window of opportunity" for protein consumption just pubbed in Pubmed. Take home: "Consuming protein postexercise is important for muscular adaptations, but the window of opportunity is not as narrow as previously proposed..." https://t.co/KoIngZ1VSf

[Sara Bruce @SaraBruceFit]

This is awesome!! Also educating pre and post moms on the impact of nutrition at each stage.

[GirlsGoneSTRONG @GirlsGoneSTRONG]

And as much as you’ve been led to believe it’s a niche -- it’s not. 85% of women will have a baby at some point in her life, so if you work in health and fitness, you work with pre- and postnatal women. Learn how to give them the care they deserve ==> https://t.co/1TBVobWqSk

[Sara Bruce @SaraBruceFit]

Veggies can sometimes be difficult to consume especially for children. Next time you make them Mac and cheese add some cooked and finely chopped broccoli & some tuna for a more nutrient dense food they’ll enjoy!
