Tips:
1. Lower fat at restaurants by choosing grilled > fried, fruit cup instead of fries
2. If not eating because you feel “heavy” look at timing and food choice
3. Pregame meal 3-4 hrs before

Happy Valentine's Day! Remember it's ok to eat your favorite dessert.🥰Tips: 1. Consume the amount that feels good in your body (satisfied, not overly full) 2. Eat as part of satisfying meal or snack containing protein, carb, and color. You don't need to "save up" for the treat.

Another successful Lunch N Learn for our athletes! 👏

The goal was to try foods they may not be familiar with (cottage cheese…hit or kiss!) and identify an affordable, low prep, high protein option for breakfast or post-workout snack. 💪
