Macros & Midlife - Weight Loss, Nutrition, Strength Training, Simple Meal Prep, Consistency, Simple Lifestyle Habits, Systems for Success

Do you wish you could keep the weight off after losing it? Do you struggle with all of the restrictions and extremes of diet and exercise? If you are tired of quick fixes and want a sustainable path to health, you are in the right place! Hey, I’m Emily. A retired homeschool mom, wedding florist, and nutrition coach who understands what it’s like to struggle with health and fitness. After years of not knowing what to do to both lose weight AND keep it off, I found freedom through macro counting. The problem for me was that I didn’t have a clear path with a step-by-step approach for weight loss, and I was always throwing spaghetti at the wall trying to see what stuck. I hit a point when I was done trying to go it alone. I finally hired a nutrition coach, and this changed everything. With my coach’s help, I learned how to track macros, balance my nutrition, and how much food I actually needed to fuel my body properly. I lost 20 pounds and have maintained my weight loss for years. If you are ready to finally find a simple, sustainable, macro-based nutrition plan that will help you to lose weight, improve your fitness, and get off the diet roller coaster, welcome! I’m glad you’re here.

Making changes in your lifestyle to be able to lose weight requires doing different actions to be able to reach a different outcome.
As I've been studying a lot lately regarding personal finance, I wanted to share a few thoughts with you today on how getting out of debt and weight loss have so many correlations.
Getting out of debt and losing weight both can be challenging and rewarding goals, and necessitate patience, strategy, time, and consistency. In order to have lasting success with either goal, habits must change, but more importantly, a mindset shift needs to take place if the results are to be long lasting.
