These real food changes can help you feel better

Real food. You need it. Your kitchen is still haunted by the ghosts of holiday-eating-with-abandon, and now you’re feeling blah. Since you’re feeling blah, you need help devising a plan to get more real food into your life.

Real food. Not “meals” that comes in a box or two. But things that haven’t been freeze dried, injected with preservatives and sugar and sugar and more sugar. Not something packaged in a little miracle pill or chalky chocolate shake. Real food. Stuff that comes as close as possible to plucking it out of the ground, combined in easy, tasty ways.

Real Food First

Nutritionist Caitlin Ball over at Teaspoon Living was kind enough to share some simple energy-packed recipes with Walking on Mom a few months back during my “Morning Routine For Stressed Moms” series. If you tried them, you know how delicious they were. If you didn’t, you need to. They’re easy and filling and packed with good stuff to keep you going.

Caitlin believes in real food and its power to give you sustained energy and help you feel like you’re more than the zombiemom that has taken over.

I’m excited to partner with Caitlin again, this time to bring you a program she developed to give you tips, recipes, support and coaching. It’s all part of her Real Food First program designed guide you on a new and inspiring path to eat better and feel better with real food. She even put together a special discount for readers of this blog.

Real food can change your life

I signed on to help Caitlin promote Real Food First because I know how intense the changes were when I made changes to my eating a couple of years ago.

I was a mom juggling two toddlers, debilitating bouts of anxiety and depression and pressures of life as a stay at home mom.

When I cleaned up my cupboards, and what I put in my mouth, I can’t stress enough how impactful the improvements were to my energy, my skin, and while I didn’t do it to lose weight, the 15 pounds I lost and hasn’t been missed these past couple of years.

But the biggest benefits, and the reasons I encourage everyone to examine their own eating habits, is because cleaning up my eating helped me rid the struggle of insomnia and made a clear, noticeable improvement in my mood.

This may sound all sales-pitchy, but that’s not what this is about. It’s about my belief that we have been sold a myth that you have to beat yourself up to be healthy. That you have to starve and run marathons and eat kale, kale and pretty much only kale to feel better about our food, our bodies, our health.

There’s no gimmick here. This is a real plan to help you look at real food and see if you can’t notice the changes. I think you will. And I think there’s no better way to make big changes than to invest in it, wholeheartedly with the support of others who are learning along side you.

So now for the good stuff.
