Cakenweights: Online Fitness and Nutrition Coaching

Someone asked me recently if tracking macros can trigger an eating disorder. It's a good question & a common fear.

As someone who battled an eating disorder before tracking macros my answer is not if done properly with the right education & guidance.

Honestly, learning more about nutrition, macros & how to properly fuel my body was a super helpful step in my recovery.

Tracking macros should never be about trying to eat as little as possible, even in a weight loss phase. The goal, especially in a weight loss phase, should always be trying to optimize your metabolism & hormones by eating as much as possible while still reaching your goals.

Like I said it's important to do it the right way though or it could definitely create an unhealthy mindset & unhealthy habits. This is the reason I became a coach & educate along the way.

Will always have the best view standing next to you 😘

🧨✨Happy 4th ✨🧨

Today it’s ok if it’s memories>macros

One day off macros won’t ruin everything, but losing out on precious memories with friends & family can’t be redone.

Just get back on track tomorrow 😊

Let's have FUN!

Starting your fitness journey can be incredibly overwhelming, intense and confusing... but it doesn't have to be! The best way to get started is to just do things that sound fun. Get your body moving! Explore around your city, go on walks and increase your steps for the day. Channel your inner kid and have fun on a jungle gym at a park with a friend! Sign up for a group fitness course like cycling or a dance class to meet new people. Go somewhere new and do something different like swimming, hiking or rock climbing!

Above all, fitness is about movement. Get active and have FUN!

Joy and happiness are just outside your comfort zone!

You don't have to be thrust into the unknown, but you do have to take some risks to try new things! Maybe you try wearing something different for once. Maybe you try a new recipe for dinner. Maybe you go to a new gym or try a new activity. Sometimes you find something new that you LOVE and other times, you learn that you don't like something. Learning what you don't like can actually help steer you in a direction to figure out what you do enjoy.

Your comfort zone is all about survival and validating your fears, so how can you expand your comfort zone this week to start thriving and living a life without any regrets?

You CAN have it all and you DON'T have to cut it out!

The sweet treats, the pizza nights, the morning coffee run... you don't have to say goodbye to your favorite foods to achieve your goals! When you choose to work with me, you're not going to get a boring meal plan where you dread eating bland food every day. Working with me means that we are teaming up to create a sustainable lifestyle diet of food that you LOVE that also helps you achieve all of your goals! The best diet is one that you can adhere to!

Love Yourself First💕

You are unique! You are enough! And you have nothing to prove to anybody!
Your approval and acceptance of yourself is the ONLY opinion that matters. It is the impossible task to change how anyone else thinks of you, but you can control the way you think about yourself! Are you creating a safe space that allows for you to be your true self or are you still hiding parts of your personality from certain people? Are you speaking kind words to yourself or are you repeating other people's opinions and perceptions of who you are?

Affirmations are an amazing way to ground yourself into who you are. What are you saying to yourself today?

Do it because you love yourself!

Working out can seem like a punishment when you first start out... you're sweating, you're tired, your body doesn't move that way, all of the weights seem heavy, and your whole body is sore after... but if you reframe your mindset? You're reminding yourself that the good things in life require hard work and dedication, you're teaching yourself to push past your boundaries, you're building confidence in yourself, and you're gaining strength! You're choosing to move your body because it creates a healthier version of yourself, mentally and physically! You're doing it because you love yourself enough to grow into the best version of you 💕

What is one thing you are learning to love since starting your fitness journey?

Five foods to eat to fuel your workouts!

1. Cinnamon Rolls
2. Pizza
3. Cookies
4. Pasta
5. Shakes

Not only are these foods delicious, but they are packed with carbs, an essential source of fuel for your body that gives you the energy you need to crush your workouts and conquer your day. What if I told you that you could eat all of these foods and MORE while losing weight? All of my clients are able to eat the foods they love while still achieving their fitness goals! Check out my Master Your Macros Course and CakeNWeights Cookbook with over 80+ recipes linked in my bio to learn how you can eat your favorite foods and achieve your goals too!

Achieve your goals… and have fun doing it!

You can move towards your weight loss goals while also enjoying what you’re eating, crushing your training, and flourishing in your relationships! My goal when working with my clients is to create a sustainable lifestyle that you will want to continue with for the long run. If you have a busy job and can only work out 4-5 times a week, let’s create a custom workout plan to make the most of your workouts. If you love having a date night once a week, let me teach you how to make those special outings work with your nutrition goals.

✨Mindset Shift ✨

Do you have a piece of clothing in your closet that you have been holding onto, just waiting for when you can fit into it again? Maybe it's a dress or a tee-shirt, or a pair of jeans. Are you on your fitness journey because you want to fit into some clothes? Or are you working hard to bring back the feeling of confidence that you experienced when you wore those those clothes?

Some of my favorite things I teach with my mindset course are finding your "why," detaching from the scale, loving your body, and building your confidence. Just like we train our bodies in the gym, we also need to train our minds!
