The 4 things I was told to limit after my auto immune diagnosis

Leave a comment

When I was first diagnosed with Crohn’s disease 2 days after my college graduation I was told limit:

⏭️ alcohol, dairy, gluten and processed sugar.

Ya’ll – Did you read that last sentence?!

I was a 21 year old freshly graduated from college young adult – who – may I add – was about to spend 4 months living my best life at the beach…

Naturally I rolled my eyes back to that doc and took the script to the pharmacy to fill the prescription that I would refill monthly for the 7 years that followed – popping a pill 3x daily.

I lived the auto immune disease life feeling like a victim until one day, a decision to try and prove an infomercial wrong left me feeling better than ever wondering if maybe just maybe the food I was eating did in fact impact more than the waistline!

That product I added in 9.5 years ago became a staple in my daily routine as did the healthy habits I began implementing and the reason why I began sharing publicly on social media.

Because there is no doubt there is another mama out there making emergency runs to the bathroom & trying to survive off popping pills who doesn’t yet understand your daily FOOD CHOICES MATTER.

Like REALLY MATTER.

Perhaps there was a reason behind grandmas everywhere forcing us to “eat our veggies” back in the 90s!

Now let me say I am not a doctor.

But I am a mama – who once struggled daily to have the energy to keep up with her little kiddos – who learned how POWERFUL daily nutrition choices are and who is committed to helping other mamas unlock that for themselves too!!!

I’m going to be hosting a new type of wellness challenge:

The FIRST EVER Healthy Holiday Kitchen will run from NOW until New Year! This exclusive community will be a place for you to focus on your nutrition goals, invite God into the fight, learn how food fuels your body, try new yummy holiday recipes, incorporate Shakeology and lots of Shakeology desserts that won’t steal your joy or progress as you fight for the healthiest version of YOU this holiday season! 

Don’t worry!  We’re gonna allow ourselves a few days to enjoy the good ole traditional eats we have always loved at the holidays, but the REST of the time we’re going to make good, clean, whole and YUMMY eats!

Complete this application, and I will email you your enrollment options if you’re not already a client of mine!  We WILL be incorporating Shakeology at LEAST 5 days a week for the purpose of improving your gut health, digestion, energy levels and metabolism! 

But for now I want you to know that there’s a possibility that tweaking (or in my case drastically changing) your nutrition could change the game for you!

Brownie Batter Protein Bowls

Leave a comment

Dessert for breakfast anyone? (pup not included)

I won’t lie, I love my sweets, I love chocolate and I love to EAT!


But I also understand that food is fuel, too much sugar is detrimental to my physical and mental health AND all food should actually TASTE good not just be good for you!

I’ve also learned the older I get the more important adequate protein is for my body on my quest to age gracefully!!!


Enter: MY DAILY BROWNIE BATTER PROTEIN BOWL

I’ve been enjoying these bowls for over 6 months now and its the most requested recipe on my social media and I am finally responding and putting it together for you!

What you need:

1️⃣1 scoop nutrient dense superfoods (I went with chocolate but honestly any flavor will do)
2️⃣1 scoop post workout recover protein (again…🍫🍫🍫)
3️⃣1 tbs-ish of your favorite nut butter (currently obsessed with costco mixed seed nut butter)
4️⃣ Collagen
5️⃣ Almond milk (or your favorite milk)

Optional: chia seeds, flax seeds, granola, berries and/or bananas and other toppings

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO: Here’s where it gets tricky – you need to add enough milk to make it the consistency of batter. I don’t measure 😜 just don’t over do it or you’ll be eating chocolate soup 😜 I’ve never actually measured it but you’ll get the picture once you start mixing it up!

Simply top with your favorite granola or fresh fruit and thank me later 💋💋💋
