Katie is a full time working mom of 4 kids under the age of 8, with the youngest being twins. When I first met Katie, she was newly post partum after her 2nd baby, and had gained 80 lbs in that pregnancy.

Even with working out religiously at Orangetheory, she gained more weight than she'd intended in the pregnancy, and was having a hard time losing it afterwards. Working together she lost the baby weight (and more) and she continued her nutrition coaching during her pregnancy with her twins.

The reality is that eating is much harder than working out. We make numerous decisions about food every day, and food is often used as a coping mechanism. This means that changing our eating habits requires MORE support and education around nutrition. It is normal and healthy to seek support and help when trying to make any change or improvement. Making mistakes or having bad days with your eating is not a moral failing, as long as we learn from it and make changes.

When it comes to fueling for a hike, it's all about balance. Learn which foods to avoid and which ones to focus on, and how to make sure you're getting the most out of them.
