WINTER WARMER FOR BREAKFAST

June 5, 2018realadmin_adminNutrition

Need something to warm the soul on these chilly, Sydney mornings. Well I have the perfect recipe for you.

QUINOA & BROWN RICE PORRIDGE

  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1tbs maple syrup
  • strawberries or raspberries (or any fresh fruit)
  • quinoa & brown rice

I must admit i did cheat in this recipe and luckily enough you can too with this one. I brought the organic 90sec brown rice/quinoa from coles.

 

METHOD

Bring the coconut cream and maple syrup to the boil in a small saucepan and then add the rice/quinoa mix and turn the heat down.

Leave to cook for 3-5mins and stir as you go.

And that is it!! Fantastic for meal prepping or for when you have just had enough with eggs. Mix your meals up so you don’t get bored of them and pack all your hard efforts in.

i re-heat and then add my fresh fruit, you could also add a dollop of coconut yoghurt on top and a sprinkle of fresh mint leaves.

 

Enjoy!

And remember everyone deserves good health.

HOW TO EAT WITH AWARENESS 🤔 Being aware and mo HOW TO EAT WITH AWARENESS 🤔

Being aware and more present with our daily nutrition seems to be less and less common. What are some ways we can become more aware of what we eat?

1. Set an intention. How do you want to feel at the end of the day? Tired and lethargic? Or strong & healthy? If the answer is strong & healthy than packaged foods and sugar aren’t going to get you there.

2. Track your food. In order to become more aware we need to understand the calories that are coming in. By tracking your food you can understand what your food is made up of in terms of nutrient value.

3. Where your focus goes your energy will flow. Focus on consuming less processed more whole foods. Less alcohol more water. Increase your protein intake and your sugar consumption will naturally drop off. 

Combining these three things when deciding on meals for the day or week, writing a shopping list or when you are eating out with friends. These simple and very achievable guidelines will help you become more mindful and back on track after the festive season.

HOW TO STOP OVERCOMPLICATING YOUR NUTRITION With HOW TO STOP OVERCOMPLICATING YOUR NUTRITION

With the weight loss industry promoting new diets almost weekly that will shed fat, increase muscle mass, put you into ketosis, detox your organs, improve your physical performance and leave you feeling energised... But only if you exclude certain macronutrients, food groups or just eat meat and animal products only...?
It can be easy to see why people feel confused and lost when it comes to figuring out what they should eat. Today I am going to break it down into the 3 most important takeaways that will get you started on a healthy, balanced path:

1. Calories in VS calories out will always be top priority 🍉: if you eat more calories than you burn, your weight will increase and the inverse is true. Your goals will discern how much or how little you should be eating but by complying with your calorie limit, you will achieve the result you are after
2. Protein Protein Protein 🥩: we talk about it all the time but it is seriously one of the most neglected macronutrients even though it provides the most benefit by far. Protein not only resynthesises muscle which promotes growth (therefore increasing our caloric demand meaning we can eat more) but it also increases satiety, meaning when you consume enough protein, you don’t feel as hungry for the snacks or sweets that will derail you long term 
3. 80:20 Rule🍔: this one is my personal favourite and where most people get stuck. If eating 1 burger on a Saturday night with some friends is what helps you stick to your nutrition plan for the rest of the week, eat the burger. When we don’t allow ourselves to indulge in the things we love every now and then, we inevitably experience burnout and give up entirely. Just remember 80% whole food: 20% soul food.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THIS SUPER ⭐️ BERNADETTE!! CONGRATULATIONS TO THIS SUPER ⭐️ BERNADETTE!!

Bernadette is our latest client of the month. Finding her spot on the wall of fame, Bernadette has had raging success since she first started here at RFT. 

“B” started with the end goal in mind and hasn’t forgotten it since. She has been renamed “Little Miss Consistent” sticking to 
🏋🏼‍♀️x3 PT sessions/wk 
🚶‍♀️committing to increasing her daily movement
📓 tracking her food on a consistent basis over a year and a half
🥵 and getting 1-2 sweat sessions in per week
As a result B’s body composition has consistently (and never spiked or increased at any point!) gone down. Body fat has decreased and muscle has either stayed the same or increased. 

Working in a high pressure full time job, looking after her two precious children, wife, and everything in between Little Miss Consistent definitely deserves these results and more!! 

I am so very excited to see where 2021 takes her. Watch this space!
