- People say that age is just a number. And I agree - it's how you live your life that determines how young or old you are. Part of that is of course what you eat. How you eat. How much you eat. And how you feel. On that note, in celebration of my 47th birthday, I'm giving you 47% OFF my subscription plans until end of play Monday.
Use the code MIKKI47 for this awesome deal on my FLOW (fat loss plan for women), my Man Plan (fat loss plan for, you guessed it, men), my real food plan and my athlete plan.
Find these options here ( t.dripemail2.c... ) and use the code MIKKI47 (it IS case sensitive)
Also - because I like to share what's on my mind... here's 47 things I've been thinking about.
* Eating: is always ‘opportunity cost’
* Most people need to eat more protein
* Some women are afraid to eat meat for fear of gaining weight
* There are good and bad foods, and eating them doesn’t make you a good or bad person
* It’s not enough to eat one of those steam locked bags of vegetables at dinner and call it ‘good’
* Weetbix shouldn’t be a meal. Neither should toast
* Sometimes ‘good enough’ isn’t actually good enough - to reach your goals you have to do better
* You can’t get everything you need from food
* The people that take notice of the ‘eat less red meat’ messages are those that need to eat it the most
* Most people could do with eating less carbs
* 20g of protein in a meal is not a high protein meal
* Most people under-report the amount of alcohol they drink
* For most people, they don’t need to be perfect, they just need to be consistent
* Don’t rely on one source of truth for your nutrition advice
* Getting your nutrition advice from someone whose course was a week long is fine, until something goes wrong.
* Why call it a ‘cheat meal’ if you’re only ‘cheating’ yourself
* If you have toast for breakfast and a sandwich for lunch, you need to rethink your nutrition strategy
* Those small tins of tuna/salmon are not a high protein option
* Most people have an opinion on nutrition because they eat.
* You can’t be healthy at any size if you don’t exercise
* Those snack choices on a short haul flight are unnecessary and you don’t need to be eating a cookie
* If you care about your cholesterol, cut down on your carbohydrate intake
* Not everyone needs to lower their saturated fat intake
* In nutrition, there are people and organisations who have an agenda that isn’t related to your health
* Red meat isn’t high in saturated fat, actually
* Most processed food doesn’t contain saturated fat as it’s quite expensive
* If you don’t exercise, you aren’t healthy, even if you are lean
* You don’t need to be entertained by every single meal
* Family history is a big predictor in a lot of disease-states, however your genes are not your destiny
* It’s never too late to change
* Be wary of anyone who speaks in black and white, and won’t change their opinion in the face of new information
* Cardio is really important for your heart and long term health and it’s wise to do that alongside your resistance training
* Muesli bars/granola bars aren’t a good snack choice
* If you live in NZ you need to take a vitamin D supplement and you need more than the dose that we are allowed to sell
* Most people don’t need to snack, but athletes could do with that fourth eating opportunity
* The iron supplement you get from your doctor is not the only choice for iron
* Why are there ‘kids menus’ at restaurants?
* Your high blood pressure is as likely linked to a high carbohydrate load as it is your salt intake
* Some women train just fine fasted
* For some people, intermittent fasting is the best approach, even if they are women
* Fruit isn’t a health food for some people
* Butter trumps margarine
* Your cholesterol level is less important than what your doctor thinks it is
* Most people need a magnesium supplement
* Keto for fat loss is not a high fat diet
* You can’t get fit by eating differently. You have to exercise
* ‘Everything in moderation’ isn’t true for everyone
