Time to shift away from the grift dismay

The key is consistency, frequency, persistence and effort if the goal is muscle activation and preservation. #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
TY @mackinprof for highlighting the importance of individualization when it comes to resistance training implementation. Strength training is not one size fits all, one type of weight, only one fitness location or type of equipment.
Focus on what matters: building strength and consuming enough protein, calories, carbs, fiber, fluid to protect not neglect your body. This is how to be sage as we age! No #frailjail #seasonedwithreason #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
TY Stuart Phillips,PhD for setting the record straight that even in menopause it is not too late to build muscle! Invest in your self,divest from the negative thinking that menopause should define, undermine or confine. Attitude shift towards time to design a fitness and eating plan that can!
A huge and heartfelt thank you to Kristie Abt,PhD for the opportunity to present on Fueled not Fooled for the Exercise is Medicine on campus speaker series for the SMU faculty and student community. Love being able to edutain, inspire, debunk the misinformation and focus on the hope over nope!
and supporting a #healthyselfie Thank you for the opportunity to work with those who can positively impact the physical, nutritional and mental health of the SMU community. #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
It was an honor to spend time chatting with the Southern Methodist University well-being peer student educators. We discussed how to have conversations around suspected eating disorders, addressing misinformation, helping students navigate dining venues on campus ,suggestions for shelf stable foods
A great canvas to showcase protein and produce with ease and taste to please. Part of my daily #pro-scription for #nutritionintuitioninthekitchen #talkcurdytome #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
sponsored TY @muluprotein for the cottage cheese Innovations for nutrient amplification! A casein AND whey blend cottage cheese with taste and creaminess to please! 18 grams of high quality protein per 1/2 cup that is ready to eat, without effort and no waste.

TY @nepdpg for the Outstanding Member Award. As past chair and education chair the goal is to help our members learn, grow , strive and thrive with education, collaboration and conversation. Nothing better than being recognized by one’s peers and profession. I am humbled and honored.
Honoring the intuition and tradition in the kitchen is a smart start to nutrition amplification and health preservation. Be com-pulse-ive with including beans, peas, lentils to elevate your bowl or plate. @usapulses #cannedbeanscando #FoodFluence #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
Beans, peas, lentils-good for the heart and the gut to give your microbiome a healthy home. 2.5 cups of pulses (canned, frozen, ready to eat) every week or 1/2 cup most days delivers the protein ,fiber, micronutrients (vitamins/minerals) phytonutrients (bioactives)with great taste +no waste.
Protein AND carbohydrate(with adequate fiber) produce, healthy fats and appropriate fluid intake should be the daily goal. #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
TY @mackinprof for once again bringing THE evidence and the sense to the protein conversation. When it comes to daily protein intake consume what you need but do not assume you have to exceed 1.6 grams/kilogram/day or 0.72 g/pound body weight /day.
through what you eat and considering an electrolyte supplement if appropriate to help you succeed in meeting your needs. #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
Hydration never takes a vacation! 70% of Americans are not adequately hydrated. Capitalize on your liquid assets with enough fluid from what you drink and the foods you choose and remember to hydrate well you need water AND get it right with your electrolytes
Thank you @pittsburghfsc for the opportunities to engage with the coaches, parents and skater communities. #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
As a sports dietitian I strive to bring the intuition to performance nutrition, explain the reasons to steer clear of myth-information and make recommendations based on science, sense, practicality and reality.
So looking forward to continuing the protein conversation at the eatright_ct annual meeting as we clear up the confusion, emphasize the importance of quality, needs-based quantity and the nutritional contribution of the whole plate in the #proscription for continuity and consistency
The #proscription is not one size fits all and recommendations must include cultural considerations, culinary competency, food availability and affordability.

What do you need to know when it comes to pro (tein)? So excited and delighted to share the virtual stage with @drmyo.head as we discuss how to right size when it comes to protein quantity, quality and the importance of diversity in macronutrients on the plate.
why not focus on constancy, consistency , substance and sweat equity. Persistence, #insistenceonresistance and an emphasis on ENOUGH! #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
TY @drlaurencs1 for bringing the sense into a world of influence. To all the women who who feel that nutrition and fitness recommendations are confusing, overwhelming and unattainable Rather than worrying about “best” workout or the latest greatest gadget, supplement or workout
This Passover I’d like to dedicate the Seder plate to all of the family with whom we would celebrate. The readings, the songs, the silliness, snark and most of all #traditionfromthekitchen. We miss you and love you
TY @americanfrozenfoodinstitute for the gift of #freezerpleasers. Frozen foods are a fromance of ease, taste, no waste &bring the nutritional wealth to the freezer shelf. Alone or paired with produce/grains/beans/potatoes to deliver on the intuition &tradition in the kitchen. #thethrillofthechill
It’s comments like these that I’m grateful for in my feed. The registered dietitian translates the science to realistic, do-able implementation-incorporating personalization over generalization with passion, purpose &practicality. #nutritioninfofromthosethatknow #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
The registered dietitian is the WAZE to cut through the nutrition message haze. #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement
