25.01.2022 Do you implement Self Care? IT IS THE WEEKEND SO A GREAT TIME TO START!! A device cannot run when the battery has no energy to give. While you are much more valuable than any device, you do not run so well on depleted batteries either. You have to fill your cup! So many of us get caught up in all the responsibilities we have daily that we forget to take some time out for ourselves - Does this sound like you!?... We are less likely to be able handle life’s challenges if we are already depleted physically, emotionally or mentally. It is hard at times to step away. But YOUR NOT superhuman and there is only so much you can stretch yourself before it takes its toll. For optimal mindset self-care becomes such an important aspect to allow you to manage stress, replenish your spirit and allow you to serve others. I incorporate self-care into my schedule on a weekly basis. Some of my favourite tasks to ensure I have optimal health and balance include: Do a hobby that you love I MAKE CANDLES Try a new hobby Go for a walk / Go hiking Call your Mum / Dad / daughter / siblings Read a book or magazine Draw or paint Sit outside with a coffee Go to the markets and stock up on fresh produce Gym Yoga SAY NO WHEN YOU NEED TO! Try a restaurant you have never tried before Take a bath Watch a movie Give someone you love a hug Order dessert Garden Eat nourishing foods Take a bike ride Sleep in Burn a candle I LOVE doing this Meditate Get a pedicure You do not need to implement ALL THE THINGS each day or week. But choose a few that you can do each week and make them a priority at the end of the day this your ‘fuel’ and ‘energy’ and ‘recharging the batteries’ so your able to give the world the BEST OF YOU not what is LEFT of YOU!

22.01.2022 IT IS CHRISTMAS WEEK! LET THE FUN BEGIN!! MY TEAM HAVE DESIGNED A FEW REMINDERS FOR YOU ALL TO NOT FEEL ‘RESTRICTED’ THIS WEEK!... 1. You do not need to earn your food this week making MEMORIES is KEY, say yes to the event, drinks, or unexpected beach day! One day off less nutrients or more calories will not cause excess kilograms & fat gain, (what does is WEEKS in a surplus) 2.Do NOT punish yourself by trying to burn off additional calories this week. This will destroy your mindset, work out because you LOVE your body, not because you hate it. 3.Do NOT feel ‘defeated’ for training a bit less. If there is a time to take your foot off the accelerator it is NOW, consider it is not what we do from Christmas to new years that causes excess body fat and our clothes to feel tighter, it is what we do from New Years to Christmas! 4.YOU’RE NOT NEGLECTING YOUR HEALTH for going over your macros YOUR LIVING & YOUR HUMAN. 5.NO CRAZY RESTRICTION THIS WEEK just mindful eating and enjoying every bite. Restriction = binge out in private, punishment mindset & a vicious cycle. 6.AIM for WEIGHT stability this week NOT a LOSS, if you are working with a nutrition coach ask them to manipulate you targets immediately, a diets break (increase in calories) or EXTRA carbs is always a wise decision at this time of the year! As a nutritionist & weightloss coach my approach through the festive season is realistic & about creating a lifestyle! www.cindafit.com.au

18.01.2022 LONG WEEKEND HACKS WHEN DINING OUT!! Eating out can be simple & basic all while allowing you to still hit your goals and not have to start over on Monday First is first: ... Remember good balance and variety in your food choices is ESPECIALLY important, that also means soul foods on a periodical basis. You can still eat foods you love and use a approach which provides flexibility to include these types of foods in moderation Do not be afraid to make healthy swaps to meals e.g: Remove sides. Add vegetables these are great, since they contain very few calories, but lots of healthy fiber and nutrients (you will feel full!!!) Ask for the sauce or dressing on the side THAT WAY YOU HAVE CONTROL. Simple meals are always best and easier to track. -E. g steak, salads, chicken, stir fry ect Order your food grilled, baked, broiled, poached, or steamed instead of fried. Ask for dishes to be cooked with a little olive oil instead of butter. YOUR MFP DIARY WHEN YOU DINE OUT if in a weighloss phase: - They will not be exact but provide you with accountability to track the remaining day and not end up thousands of calories in a surplus. - Look up the location you are eating out and plan the rest of your day around this. Most places have menus online. - Eat high protein snacks around dining out & a lot of nutrients eg vegetables and salad. HAPPY LONG WEEKEND FROM CINDAFIT TEAM www.cindafit.com.au

13.01.2022 Struggling to shift weight!? Is something that you are having every day costing you extra calories? No matter how 'healthy' you think something is your body will not ignore its caloric value (ENERGY). ... Do not be fooled by beverages, THEY STILL HAVE CALORIES. 1 or more coffees a day could equate upwards of an entire meal. WHY: It all comes back to energy density, particularly if you are aiming to decrease body fat. At the end of the day weightloss = consuming less energy than expenditure. CINDAFIT TOP TIPS FOR COFFEE LOVERS: Choose skim or non-fat milk Choose small over large Make sure your account for the coffee in your diary / tracking application Consume in moderation, weightloss is a balancing game Swap sugar for stevia Try a dash of milk if having more than one per day, rather than full milk in all coffees Anything in excess is not ‘in moderation’ or ‘balanced’ We make weightloss simple. Weightloss and nutrition is what we do. www.cindafit.com.au

10.01.2022 Overindulging in food & alcohol and decreasing all activity becomes a common theme this time of year I have never really been a fan of the I will start again on January first mindset, as I like to preach and practice a balanced lifestyle all year. BUT RIGHT NOW LET ME GUESS... YOU HAVE A LOT OF CHRISTMAS SHOWS ON? AND YOU NEED SOME HELP TO BOUNCE BACK AFTER THESE? WELL... KEEP READING GIRL, I GOT YOU HERE ARE THE CINDAFIT TOOLS YOU CAN IMPLEMENT IMMEDIATELY: 1. FIRST IS FIRST: One bad day will not ruin weeks and weeks of good progress, so instead of ‘beating yourself up,’ pick yourself back up AND GET ON WITH YOUR WEEK. 2. Increase your water intake to remove excess toxins - sugar, sodium & alcohol. 3. Focus on being 100% adherent to your intake & goals the next day and increasing volume food. 4. Do not cut calories - or do an excessive amount of cardio this week to ‘punish yourself’. Simply go back to your normal routines. 5. Limit your temptations: if you have masses of treats around the house and are not good at self-discipline: - Freeze them, store them up the top of the pantry etc. 6. Enjoy balanced meals over the next few days add in extra volume, colour, and nutritious meals. 7. Increase daily steps & NEAT activity At the end of the day there is no crime in ‘indulging’ in a little chocolate or pudding, your program & plan needs to work around YOUR LIFESTYLE to be successful. Success comes from consistency so - GET BACK IN YOUR ROUTINE THE NEXT DAY, SET YOUR ALARM, AND KEEP A POSITIVE MINDSET - The body achieves what the mind feeds it. www.cindafit.com.au

You have anxiety around food It is exhausting starting over?! Girl, deep breaths - I HEAR YA! Firstly, we all start somewhere, so you can choose hard ‘now’ or hard in 5 years’ time.

It is tough taking the first step, but guys how exciting is it that the harder it is, the more your ‘old self’ is transforming into your ‘new self. Let us plan, I will help you navigate tough times that involve VALIDATING your feelings, DITCHING the self-shame, and taking positive ACTIONS in your life. You will soon see this health journey as a lifelong learning curve. Whenever you fall off, I will be here, cheering you on, picking you up and putting you back on the horse! Why?! You did not faill you just learnt an important lesson & another way not to do something. As Albert Einstein says so well You never fail until you stop trying www.cindafit.com.au

05.01.2022 A feast of Christmas food can be the ultimate temptation right Lets learn how to enjoy this Christnas without overindulging & ending up asleep in a food coma We fill up big plates on Christmas Day because there are so many different selections available to us! YET..... IT IS NOT THE FOOD MAKING YOUR GAIN WEIGHT, the options are actually very healthy IT'S YOUR PORTION SIZE & the simple truth is that weight loss efforts are easily undermined by large portion sizes. CINDAFIT BASICS GUIDE FOR PLATING UP THIS YEAR: 1. GOLDEN RULE: ensure your plate has a single layer of food - not a mountain. 2. Use your hands as a guide to plating up portions. 2. Your palm determines your protein portions. 3. 1-2 fists determine your vegetable & salad portions, these are your volume foods. 4.Your cupped hand determines your carbohydrate portions. 5.Your thumb determines your fat portions. 6.Find yourself walking up for seconds? Ask yourself: Do you need the seconds? Or are they just going to make you feel ‘over full’ One serving of potato bake tastes the same as an entire plate full www.cindafit.com.au

04.01.2022 Just because something is made with fruit does not make it automatically healthy!!! Research has linked dried fruit and juices to ‘empty’ calories!! This post is not to shame these foods as you CAN get some alternatives which have no added sugars or preservatives but majority in in the supermarkets compare the same as the photo! ... A common mistake: I don’t track fruit, it’s healthy" WRONG!! Yes, real fruit is GREAT for you and provides your body with lots of essential vitamins, minerals, and fibre, it does still contain calories and all calories count, especially if you are trying to lose weight!! I recommend two serves of fruit daily in all my client’s programs as recommended by the Australia Guidelines for healthy eating 1 standard serve of fruit is equivalent to 150g Dried fruit on the other hand can be packed with excess calories and sugar! Of course, you can eat it BUT it will quickly add up. FUN FACT!!! Did you know 250ml of orange juice contains about the same amount of sugar and calories as a 250ml can of coke!? 1 serve of orange juice also requires the juice of almost 5 oranges; this means you are consuming almost 5x the amount of sugar than if you were to simply eat an orange!!!
04.01.2022 Can I ask you a question? WHY ARE YOU PUTTING IT OFF? WHY ARE YOU SO SCARED TO START? WHAT’S WRONG WITH RIGHT NOW?... We often hold ourselves back from achieving greatness. We do not do it on purpose, we do it because we are too scared to fail or worse the fear of rejection! We aim for this 'magical' perfection which means we never start because deep down, we know perfection doesn’t really exist, so our brain holds us back from starting (or finishing) to protect us from failure. Harvey Mackay quotes this: Most fears of rejection rest on the desire for approval from other people. Don’t base your self-esteem on other’s opinions. What if. we changed our standard. We swapped 'perfection' for 'our best'. We swapped 'insecurities' for 'confidence'. We traded 'failure' for 'failing forwards' We chose to look at hard as a 'challenge' We swapped mistakes for 'future development.' Once you can truly dissolve the fear of rejection one is liberated to be unapologetically themselves. In doing so one is liberated from the limited thinking of others. In this life you attract what you ARE. www.cindafit.com.au
02.01.2022 The role of energy density in weight management is KEY! When trying to achieve weight loss or maintain body composition knowledge about the energy density of food can be extremely useful. You do not have to give up your favourite FOODS to reach your goals! ... WHAT IS IT? Energy density is the amount of energy or calories in a weight of food and is usually presented as kcal/g. Some foods are very energy dense, other foods, usually foods that contain a lot of water and fibre have less energy per gram! (I call these ‘volume foods’!) These foods are what will keep you FULLER FOR LONGER! You can use volume foods to help satisfy your hunger while in the WEIGHT LOSS PHASE! The macronutrients, carbohydrate, fat, and protein have different amounts of calories per gram. Fat 9 Calories per gram Alcohol 7 Calories per gram Carbohydrates 4 Calories per gram Protein 4 Calories per gram Because our foods contain different combinations of these nutrients, they differ vastly in their energy content or energy density. A small quantity of food that is rich in ‘fat’ will have an extremely high energy content and your visual cues may not recognise a large intake of energy. If weight loss is your goal at the moment, there are a few key points to take note of: Eating foods that contain less ‘energy’ per gram, helps keep you fuller for longer and lets you to eat a larger volume of food. Consideration both the energy density of foods and food quality so it can be easier to adhere to your goal. Focus on having a diet that’s high in vegetables and fruit or foods containing high content of both water and fibre (think whole foods, rather than packaged ones!). Be mindful and limit the amount of higher energy dense foods, such as high fat foods, snack foods, oils etc. www.cindafit.com.au
02.01.2022 ARE YOU REALLY HUNGRY?!? Or are you bored, stressed, sad, lonely, anxious? HUNGER - Let us talk REAL, TRUE hunger VS HEAD hunger. Something I get asked ALL THE TIME is how to deal with ‘emotional eating.’... The most important thing to realise with emotional eating is that often, your body is not truly hungry. Your body is craving ‘comfort.’ I call this HEAD HUNGER, but it does not need to come from food. HEAD HUNGER: -You can go from one food to another to another and never FEEL SATISFIED, because it’s not hunger -You want a or certain food, EG: ice cream!! AND that is all you want -You feel guilty after you eat it. REAL HUNGER: -Shaky -Lite headed - Lethargic - Stomach rumble MY TIPS: I love to rate my hunger from 1-10 as it helps me feel in synch with my body. I personally like to always sit around 3-8!! It is 100% ok to eat the foods you love but do so when you’re in a great mindset so you can eat them slowly & truly savour every single bite rather than inhaling it because you’re emotional. I will allow myself to eat what I feel like but it is typically in portions and I will account for it in my day. USE Mindful eating practices: -Take your time -Knife and fork down -Minimize distractions if possible -CHEW YOUR FOODD WELL for optimum digestion. Learn to deal with difficult emotions in ways that do not involve food. Find other ways to self soothe & provide your body with comfort. www.cindafit.com.au
