Built for real life, not perfection

If you want lasting fat loss results, you have to break the habit of quitting on yourself.

Life is going to get busy. You’ll have vacations, celebrations, stressful weeks, and days that don’t go according to plan.

The goal isn’t to be perfect. The goal is to stop using every obstacle as a reason to give up.

Something is always better than nothing. A protein-focused meal is better than saying f**k it and eating like an as***le. A short walk is better than skipping movement altogether.

The women who succeed long-term aren’t the ones who never get off track. They’re the ones who stop quitting every time they do.

Most people underestimate what they can accomplish in a year and overestimate what they can accomplish in a week.

A healthy body isn't built by one perfect workout.
It's built by hundreds of ordinary workouts.

It's not one healthy meal.
It's hundreds of balanced meals.

It's not one walk.
It's thousands of steps.

It's not motivation.
It's repetition.

We have lost a combined 180 pounds, and if there's one thing we've learned, it's that consistency beats intensity every time.

Stop looking for the magic key that’s going to unlock the kingdom of health.

Start looking for the habits you've been avoiding because they seem too simple. (And remember, simple does not mean easy. We are here to guide and support your journey, just a DM away!)

The basics still work. Eat your veggies. Get enough protein. Lift some heavy things a couple days a week. Move your body everyday. Manage your stress. Prioritize sleep. Drink your water.

What's one thing you can do this week that future you will thank you for?

Shout out to all the dads! Especially to Coach Miah! He's the best dad to our three kids.

Parenting is a wild ride, and I'm thankful everyday to have him by my side.

One of the things I admire most about him is that he prioritizes his health. As parents, it's easy to put ourselves last, but taking care of ourselves allows us to better take care of the people we love.

Here's to all the dads who are doing their best, leading by example, and showing their families what a healthy, active life can look like.

That said, none of us are perfect. If you're not where you'd like to be with your health, fitness, or energy levels, that's okay. Every healthy lifestyle starts with a first step, and it's never too late to make yourself a priority.

And if you're ready to take that first step, Coach Miah would love to help. Send us a message and let's talk about your goals.

Happy Father's Day!

Cooking dinner at home and doing some sort of meal prep was possibly the biggest game changer for us on our journey to losing almost 200 lbs together.

Often I'll try to do both in one shot as I did with this recipe. These are Creamy Beef Pasta bowls, and I decided to double the recipe, but make the second batch with ground chicken instead of ground sirloin.

The fact that I used two different meats made it a bit more labor intensive, however overall not bad. The were really good the first night for dinner. When I had them the next day it was a bit dry.

I think the major changes I would make is possibly add less stock to the meat, or cook it off a bit more. They did not come out creamy at all! When reheating I am also going to try adding a bit of water or stock to see if that helps with the dryness.

I would make these again for sure to see how those changes helped. Adding some steamed veggies boost the fiber a bit for sure, and adds a bit of color (these were pretty bland looking).

Comment below or send us a message for the recipe. And let me know any thoughts on how to make this creamier without adding too many calories.

If you’re trying to lose weight, you need a fitness goal.

I’m Coach Mo, and I lost nearly 100 pounds in my 40s. One of the biggest things that helped me stay consistent wasn’t motivation, it was having something to train for.

When I started, my goal was simple: finish a 5K without stopping. I didn’t care how slow I was. I just wanted to cross that finish line without walking.

And I did. It wasn’t easy at all, and the training really sucked at first. That first 30 second interval I thought was going to be the death of me. But I stuck with it.

Since then, I’ve finished a marathon, and right now I’m training to PR my half marathon this fall. I also have strength goals I’m working toward, five pull-ups and a 135-pound bench press.

Here’s why fitness goals matter.

They give you a reason to show up even when motivation disappears.

They also help keep your nutrition on track.

For example, this weekend I ate way more than usual at a family party. Nothing crazy, but enough that I woke up bloated, the scale was up five pounds, I slept terribly, and my run felt awful. Which I wasn’t happy about since it was the first run of my training block.

Instead of spiraling, I got right back to my normal routine of eating protein and produce at every meal, plenty of water, and back to my training.

Today? I felt amazing and crushed my run.

The goal isn’t perfection.

The goal is having something bigger than the number on the scale that keeps pulling you forward.

And if you’re a midlife woman who wants help losing weight while getting stronger and feeling better, I have a couple spots open for one-on-one online coaching. Send me a message and let’s chat.

Protein added to everything? Usually a no from me, but I’m always intrigued and will try it lol.

I swear 75% of “high-protein” snacks just aren’t worth it.

But these protein Popcorners from Target were actually really good and tasted like the regular version.

Are they a protein source? Not really. I still recommend getting most of your protein from whole foods.

But if you’re craving something crunchy anyway, the extra protein is a nice bonus.

These definitely passed the taste test.

What is your favorite protein not in its natural habitat snack?
