STOP FOR A SECOND.

When was the last time you paused and took a look at how far you have come?

How much you have grown since last year, how much weight you have lost, how many dietary changes you've made, how much more mature you are than yesterday ().

This plate pictured here is the sign I made for the original Basically It Meals before it was Basically It Meals.

4 years ago, it was called "The $6 Lunch". I would bulk batch my own meal prep and then take it to work each week and sell it to my coworkers. I hung this plate up at my cubicle to let them know when I had a batch to sell.

That is how far I've come.....from $6 lunch offered to coworkers, to full time business owner, to online course purveyor, to producer and TV personality.

We are all capable of INCREDIBLE CHANGE but so often we are stuck in "I haven't done enough", "I am not enough", "I will never get there".

So, stop for just one second today and give yourself a pat on the back for all the BAD ASS work you have put in!

I am so...

I spoke with an awesome group of people in a weight loss program the other night.

These people are making HUGE dietary shifts.

Something most of us will talk about, dream about, but never quite stick to.

These people were truly inspiring.

They wanted to know how to make the transition easier, less painful.

They wanted to know how to stick with it for years to come.

I told them this kind of change takes some planning.  When we leave decisions food decisions until we are hungry, our brain is not capable of making a conscious decision.

When we're hungry we switch to survival mode, and we will eat the most calorie dense thing we can get our hands on.

We have to make those decisions ahead of time. Make them when we are in a clear-headed place with our end result in mind.

When we can do that, success is inevitable.

And the best way to do that is by meal prepping.

Your week is planned ahead, all your food decisions are made, and that way when you are hungry and tired and you open that fridge...

When it comes to my clients achieving their goals, I hear it all the time...

I'm thinking about it
I'm not sure I want to
I just don't know if I can
I don't know if I have what it takes
It can be hard to believe in yourself.

Especially if you have failed in the past.

You may think you don't have enough willpower.

Or you don't have the right resources.

Or you just don't know if you can afford it.

But you know where all of these come from?

A lack of belief in yourself.

If you believed in yourself, you would know that:

-You don't have to use willpower when you are committed to yourself.
-You have all the resources you need right in front of you.
-You have the money. You do. You just don't believe that you will follow through on your purchase and thus your money will be wasted.

When I was getting my nutrition degree, I was sucked into a common belief: that American's health is failing not by choice, but by force.

This attitude bleeds into our culture and tells everyone "You can play the blame game, too".

I spent many years being angry at fast food, being angry at big AG, being angry with the food companies hiring chemists to manufacture foods that could hijack our taste buds.

How could they do this to unsuspecting, innocent American's and steal their health?

I felt powerless. I imagine you have felt this way, too.
There is nothing I can do to save our health.
But then I began to realize, my health is in my hands.
Your health is in your hands.

America's health does not lie with big AG or in a factory farm. It lies with each individual American.

YOU are the only one with the power to get healthier or sicker.

And that is not me BLAMING you, that is me EMPOWERING you.

You have a choice; and there are actually quite a few out there.

If you're busy, low on cash,...

Diets don't work...
Unless you have a plan.
If you want to overhaul how you eat, you're going to need to put some planning in.

When I was in my size 8 pants, I would wake up and think "today will be different," but it wasn't because my fridge was the same, my pantry was the same, my habits had not shifted at all.

To lose the weight, to make a dietary change, you have to plan for it.

What foods will you be eating?
How are you going to get them on your table?
What is for lunch?
What is for dinner?
What are you snacking on?

You need to know this before saying "I am going to make a change,"" will actually result in a change.

I can help you do this, just like I have helped so many others do this.

Take it from Denise who has been able to effortlessly stick to keto since she took The Meal Prep Course.

"Since taking the course, sticking to keto has been so easy for me. I am losing weight and keeping it off." - Denise, Life Coach

I would love to help you do this work inside The Meal Prep Course...

The $1,000 course going for $47

I developed The Meal Prep Course with the thought in mind that if someone were to ask me to teach them these things in person, I would charge at least $1,000.

$1,000 because the result my client would walk away with would give them that back over and over each year for the rest of their life.

Because this info is so valuable, I wanted to make it easily accessible to all, I put it in a course. And I still thought “the value of this go at your own pace course is easily worth $1,000”.

When you take what's in The Meal Prep Course and implement it in your life, you can save thousands of dollars a year on wasted food.

• You can give yourself 2 weeks worth of time back
• You can spend your lunch breaks relaxing instead of stressed
• You can have evenings in the backyard with your kids instead of
  working in the kitchen while everyone else has fun
• You can have health for life.
• You can decide you want to make a major dietary change and then DO IT! And...

A month ago I was completely out of running shape. I could barely make it five minutes.

Yesterday, I ran two hilly miles in 14mins and I wasn’t even that winded.

That’s what a little practice will do.

What are you practicing every day?

Are you learning how to be better? How to live better? Practicing creating more time in your life? Practicing creating more money?

You can have all of that and it doesn’t have to cost you a lot of time or money.

If you can get organized in just one area of your life everything else will fall into place.

For my clients, that is organizing their food each week.

Cecily is getting 6+ hours back every week.  Ryan is saving 30% on food costs each week. Denise is sticking to her keto diet and losing weight consistently.

A little practice goes a long way!

Good things don’t come easy...

I was sweating my butt off at the gym today, kind of regretting being there, when this thought hit me.

If I want to feel the way I want to feel this summer, I’m probably going to have to go through it. Feel discomfort. Sweat. Skip dessert.

This goes for saving money, getting more free time each week, committing to meal prepping.

The work you put in upfront might not be easy.

You might even need to invest money upfront to get these things...
But if the result is worth it, then the “hard part” isn’t so bad.

I challenge you to do the hard thing today- invest in yourself, sweat, go through the pain.

It’s worth it on the other side.

Join the meal prep course and you will definitely give yourself the gift of time and money on the other side!

When I speak with people who have set many goals and not achieved them, there is a lot of frustration.

Self blame, guilt, resentment. It's not a fun place to be.

I have been there. My clients have been there.

Want to reach your goals?

Lose weight, gain health, be able to chase your kids, be sexy for your spouse, look good for bikini season, have more energy- it can all be achieved if you empower yourself to take control of what is going in your mouth.

Meal prepping is that control and I can show you how to get I done quickly, in a way that puts money back in your pocket and is relaxing and fun.

Join me for the movement.

The movement that is going to get you living a better life and change the face of American health as we know it.

The Meal Prep Course is it.

So far, the students who have gone through it are seeing changes in their life so dramatic, they are calling the course "priceless".
