It’s
nutrition hack day … and I’ve got a tip that will give you a major payoff both right now and into the future.
But first, I need to start with a big question.
When you sit down to eat, do you pay attention to your food and how your body feels while you’re eating?
Or … are you chowing down in front of the TV or while scrolling your phone/computer?
Paying attention to how you fuel your body – and being INTENTIONAL about your food choices – can seriously transform your results.
By being
intentional, I mean paying attention to:
● Where your food comes
from,
● How you prepare and serve it,
● What it tastes like and how satisfying it is (every bite), and
● How it makes you feel after you eat
it.
Check this out! According to a government study, the average person spends 2½ hours a day eating.
BUT for more than half of that time, we’re not paying attention to what we’re doing – we’re watching TV, working, on our phones, reading, etc.
More than HALF.
The problem
with that is that being intentional helps you figure out which foods are working FOR YOU or AGAINST YOU.
By that I mean, meals that keep you feeling fuller, longer … or make you feel bloated, blah, tired,
and/or hungry two hours later.
Try this: For the next few days, really pay
attention to your food.
● Before you eat, think about where
the food came from and how it was prepared.
● Take a moment to think about what purpose it is serving for your body, health and goals.
● Taste and enjoy every bite.
● Notice if/when you feel full or satisfied.
● Note how you feel 1-2 hours later.
You might be (you will be!) surprised at what you discover.
Committed to your success,
Nicki xx

Check out Nicola’s amazing results she has experienced in just 6 weeks!! Nicola has since returned from her holiday and is setting
more goals. I can’t wait to see what results she will get in the next few months!!
‘I started attending Nicki’s classes about 12 years ago, on and off - kettlercise, step, etc. I have always enjoyed them. But starting PT recently with Nicki and following her Lift programme has been the most uplifting and enjoyable, with amazing results! I was feeling quite low since lockdown, turning 40, with my body after putting weight on and work/family life balance. Nicki helps set food goals and how to easily
track calorie intake. I haven’t been left starving! Lifting weights has been exhilarating to see what I can actually do. It’s not about trying to look like a body builder. I feel stronger, happier and I look forward to each session. I lost 11lb in 6 weeks and a total of 22 inches. It meant I went on holiday feeling more confident and ready to wear my bikini! I was also really eager to get back to it after my week off. Each session is like therapy, happily chatting to Nicki as she pushes you to
do the best you can. I always leave sweaty but smiling. ‘
