I am such a big fan of having healthy treats on hand ❤️They are the perfect way to round off a beautiful lunch or dinner or when you just want 'something' 🤔 However, a lot of cakes, biscuits and sweet things, aside from containing heaps of sugar, also contain gluten, something that I try to avoid as much as possible. I honestly believe that if we all stopped eating gluten we would be healthier and importantly happier 😁 Check out my latest gluten free blueberry and macadamia biscuits, perfect with a cup of tea 😊 More info and recipe in blog link in bio ⬆️ #healthyrecipes #healthydesserts #healthybiscuits #glutenfreedessert #weightlossfoods #glutenfreerecipe #macadamia #bloodsugar #healthylivingtips

Dinner is on early today 😁 Feeling like a roast beetroot and roast sweet potato salad with rocket, goats cheese, walnuts, avocado and an olive oil and Celtic sea salt dressing 😋 It’s a great idea to boil your sweet potatoes before roasting them as it helps to retain more of the beta carotene - an antioxidant that your body converts to vitamin A which is great for your eyes 👀 skin and immune system. It also helps to lower their GI (glycemic index) meaning they cause a lower rise in your blood sugar level - which means more sustained energy 💪🏻 Topping this off with a nice piece of grass fed steak for protein and glutamine - which helps your immune system, gut health, lowering stress, helps your brain 🧠 and muscles grow big 💪🏻😁 #healthydinner #fitover40women #fitover40men #healthylifestyle #5amclub #mealprep #dinnerideas #weightlossfoods #losebellyfat #townsvillenutritionist

For weight-loss, having more energy, maintaining muscle mass and for a strong immune system you want to having at least 30g of protein per meal. If you struggle in the morning to reach 30g you can always add in a high quality protein powder (always check the ingredients) which should at least have 20g of protein per serve. Add in some berries for vitamins, energy and that extra glow 🍓 😁 #weightlosshelp #proteinshake #menopauseweightloss #buildmuscle #bellyfatburner #fitover40women #healthybreakfast

Strawberries are a powerhouse and luckily they taste amazing. They also;👇🏻 Great for detoxing. Contain ellagic acid which helps to neutralise carcinogens 🚬 Contain antioxidants so they keep you young 💁‍♀️💁‍♂️ Low in sugar 💃 Help your brain 🧠 eyes 👀 heart But…. Keep in mind they are on the dirty dozen list meaning they are sprayed heavily with pesticides and horrible chemicals than wreck havoc on our hormones 😏 To help clean the pesticides off, soak them in a bowl of water with 1-2 teaspoons of bicarb soda. This is because the alkalinity can break down the chemical structure of pesticides making them less toxic and easier to remove 😁 and when possible buy organic - frozen organic strawberries are cheaper than fresh. #weightlossfoods #weightlossfruit #lowsugarfruit #strawberries #healthyskin #healthyfoods #cleanliving #menopausediet #healthtips #darwinnt

Never underestimate the power of small changes to your morning routine 🔥 Here are 4 simple ways to spice up your morning and the rest of your day 😁 1.

Make sure your breakfast contains plenty of protein and healthy fats 🥚 Do these simple changes for 1 week and let me know if you feel the difference also 😊 #savourybreakfast #morningroutine #feelbetter #menopauseweightloss #losebellyfat #moreenergy #healthylifestyle #weightlossfoods

Following on from the ‘which is better series’ 😁 is it better to use butter or margarine and which type is better? 🤔 🧈 The answer to this is pretty easy, steer clear of margarines that are full of inflammatory oils and stick to the butters that contain the least and cleanest ingredients. If you would love another comparison video just let me know and I’ll make one 😁 #butter #nutritiontips #butterormargarine #healthyoils #antiinflammatoryfood #healthylifestyle #cleaneating #healthyshopping #weightlossfoods #fitover40 #feelbetter #menopausediet #losebellyfat

I was recently asked, aside from making your own, which is the best stock to buy? Again, it comes down to reading the label, checking for additives like MSG and chemicals and the sugar content. If I don’t have any home-made, I like to buy the stock and seasoning powders as they are often a lot cleaner, healthier and last a lot longer making them great value for money 😊 #foodshopping #healthyfoodideas #healthyalternatives #healthylifestyle #nutritiontips #queenslandnutritionist #townsvillenutritionist #weightlosshelp #feelbetter #menopausediet #fitover40

Biggest realisation - There’s no such thing as failure, everything is just learning. If things aren’t working always change direction.

I believe resistance training should be a non-negotiable 😁 There are a ridiculous amount of benefits to gaining muscle and toning your body and no if you’re a women you will not become too ‘manly’ unless you are taking testosterone.

It’s essential that as we get older we limit our sugar intake as it contributes to inflammation and weight gain. Swapping out your fave products for ones that have less or no sugar can be the first step in helping you to feel great well into your older years 👵🏻👨🏻‍🦳😁 #healthyfoodswaps #lesssugar #healthyshopping #fitover40 #healthylifestyle #menopausediet #bellyfatburner #balancedbloodsugar #howtoloseweight #healthyfoodideas #soysauce

One my biggest joys is educating women to eat more! Calorie restriction is so damaging both mentally and physically 😔 It is so wonderful to enjoy food and life equally. The marketing and labelling is horrendous so it’s wise to educate yourself so that you can always make an informed choice. The key is to eat enough fibre, from salad and veg, protein and healthy fats at each meal and just sit back and notice as your energy return and waistline shrinks! And another secret 🤫 if you’re choosing starches like potatoes, each them at the end of the meal and add some fat 🥑 😊 #goodfood #eatright #balancedbloodsugar #bloodsugardiet #menopausediet #perimenopause #fitover40 #weightlossfoods #bellyfatburner

In a perfect world, which we certainly don’t live in, it’s great to eat 3 big beautiful meals per day and skip the snacks 🍪 This means we won’t have any unnecessary spikes in our blood sugar and will therefore keep us feeling energised. The key 🔑 to doing this, is to make sure that we eat enough protein in each of the 3 meals otherwise we get hungry soon after and no one wants to feel hungry all of the time. Therefore if you find yourself looking for food 45min to 2 hours after your meal, chances are you may not be eating enough protein 🥩 🥚 🥜 To watch the full video click the YouTube link bio 😊 #healthtip #weightlossover40 #bellyfat #menopausediet #bloodsugarbalance #protein #loseweightnaturally #weightlossfoods

Are you feeling frustrated that you are not reaching your health goals?

For a limited time, I am opening up 20 min health reset appointments to discuss your current dietary choices and suggest changes. Take advantage and book in now.

Seeds oils are in every things these days 🙄 Seed oils are high in omega 6 and when our ratio of omega 3 and 6’s are out of balance, ie more omega 6’s to 3’s it causes so much inflammation, chronic disease and heart disease. We don’t need to be afraid but we do unfortunately need to read the labels and not trust the marketing 🥴 #antiinflammatory #antiinflammatoryfood #antiaging #feelbetter #readthelabel #nutritiontipsoftheday

The glucose (sugar) that is stored in your muscles, is one of the best kept secrets to weight-loss 🤫 The sugar that is stored in your muscles is called glycogen. When you eat starches (bread, pasta ect) your body turns them into sugar for immediate use or later use. It sends some of the sugar to your liver and muscles and the excess is stored as fat (ie weight gain). When you exercise your body uses up the stored sugar in your muscles for energy, this then encourages your body to burn stored fat for energy 😃 Plus, regular exercise just makes you feel so strong and wonderful ❤️ 📸 @josephinecarterphotography #keepmoving #loseweightforgood #feelstrong #bloodsugarbalance #exercisemotivation #castlehilltownsville

Protein, protein, protein - boring right 🙄 but it’s actually a really important topic in order to get our mojo back and feel our very best!

The old days of counting calories and the words ‘just eat less and move more’ are gone!❌ It’s such a restrictive and sometimes really unhealthy way to live.

Are ‘cheat’ meals okay? A question I often get asked. I believe it all comes down to educating yourself about how different foods impact your body so that you can make an informed choice and weigh up the positives and negatives 😁 #cheatmeals #cheatmealsunday #cheatdayeats #cheatdays

Try a cup of green tea in the morning instead of coffee. Many people are running around in ‘tired but wired’ state. Green tea won’t raise your stress hormone (cortisol) like coffee will and it also provides so many health benefits to your mind and brain 🧠 #greentea #lowercortisol #morningroutine #weightlossnaturally #feelhappy #moodboost #townsvillenutritionist

Clients are often really happy with the spread they are currently using on their food - olive oil, lowers cholesterol, diary free, however when you flip these spreads over and read the ingredients it’s often a nightmare for your health! Preservatives and full vegetable oils that contain high amounts of omega 3 which is damaging to your health.
