23.01.2022 Thrive and not just survive! Water makes up over 60% of your body and over 90% of our blood! So yeah, being hydrated is pretty important. Why is water so good for weight loss? It often replaces a high calorie drinks with a zero calorie option! Literally saving you hundreds of calories per day! It is also a great appetite suppressant, as often we think we are hungry but your body is actually just thirsty!... Water is also great for increasing your energy. Being dehydrated can sap your energy and make you feel tired. Mild dehydration, as little as 1-2% of your body weight can affect your body. If you are thirsty, you’re already dehydrated, which can lead to fatigue, muscle weakness, dizziness and lack of mental focus. Our digestive system needs a good amount of water to digest our food properly. This means it impacts our body’s ability to absorb nutrients from our food as well as flush out toxins and remove waste from our body. And of course, bloating or water retention is also the body’s typical reaction to lack of hydration. If you don’t drink enough water, the body tries to hold on to it and often around your digestion area. So how much should we have? It all depends on YOU, it is an individual thing but our recommendations is to have around 2-3L per day depending on your activity levels and ambient temperature. Our tips to increase your hydration: Have a glass of water on waking. If you are not a fan of just water, make it a warm lemon water (cut a fresh lemon, and squeeze). It’s a great daily habit to kick start the day and get some Vit C into your body! Have a glass of water prior to your meals. Fill a bottle of water and take with you when you leave the house, sip whilst in the car. Treat yourself to a pretty new bottle to take everywhere! Have a large bottle of water on your desk at work. Or use a glass and have a tally on the top of your dally work page or diary note. Extra steps to go to the bubbler or tap! Not a fan of water make it more exciting add delicious fruit for flavour! #drinkmorewater #h20forthewin #fatlosstips #stayhydrated #healthyyou #drinkmoreinsummer #healthyhabits #waterislife #balancedlife #healthylifestyle

22.01.2022 Walk, don’t run towards your goals! This life is not a race and New Years resolutions only work if you consistently commit to making the changes required to achieve the goal. But here’s the thing.... if you run towards these goals and change everything to achieve them as quick as possible... the results are very unlikely to stick around. ... Why? Too much change in too many areas of your life at the one time can require significant energy levels to achieve and often are not sustainable... so the plan doesn’t last and the goal is never reached! So, this year, why not try something different... a slow and steady, sustainable approach! We know it’s not as sexy as 6wk bikini shred... but what if this time next year you were at your goal weight and the fittest you can be and were life ready... not just beach ready! And didn’t have to sacrifice the lifestyle you enjoy! Commit to making small changes that you can stick to and that fit your lifestyle. Pick one change and focus on hitting it for 2 weeks, then add another in. Make goals smart and write them down so that they are real! Make it achievable and do it most days! Some key healthy habits which will help you achieve weight loss: - drink 2-3L water a day, - Eat 2 serves of fruit and 5 serves vegetables per day, - Try and get 7-8hrs of sleep, - Move your body every day and hit 8-10K steps daily, - Do at least three x 45min exercise sessions per week, preferably with resistance training, - Only eat out a couple of times per week, - Pack your lunch and snacks for work, - Prioritise lean protein at each main meal What small changes can you commit to that future you will thank you for? #motivation #healthyhabits #newyearnewme #balancedlifestyle #fitfam #goals #justeatrealfood #makeitreal #flexibledieting #keepitsimple #fatlosstips #slowandsteadywinstherace #nutritiontips #newyearsresolution #lordhoweisland #beachlife #oceangirl

15.01.2022 How to win the Weekend One of the biggest hurdles to achieving your health and fitness goals is blowing out on the weekend. There can be many reasons for this. One of the most common is that people tend to restrict too much through the week and then ‘reward’ themselves or end up ‘binging’ without control.... One social event out can often add up to an additional 2-3,000 calories, when cocktails and desserts are included. This has the outcome of creating a calorie surplus for the week. not just a day! So, how do you have a fun weekend without sabotaging your health goals? Our top six tips: 1 Plan ahead if you know you will be having a social outing, can you save some calories from the day before or in the morning of. 2 Only eat one meal out a day. Dinning out has so many hidden calories with all the butter, sugar, oils and salt which help to make everything taste delish, but add up very quickly! 3 Make mindful choices no one needs a 3 course calorie dense meal plus multiple cocktails. Choose lean grilled protein with salad and veg options if possible. Or share that something your craving and may be more calorie dense, pizza, pasta or dessert, and pair it with a salad! Have an entre OR a dessert. And of course, hydrate with water and maybe only have 1 or 2 drinks. 4 Move your body, use the time to increase your activity and step levels, make catch ups with friends based on activities rather than just sitting whilst eating and drinking. Make it a walking coffee, a bike ride, go whale watching, get a pedicure or explore somewhere different! 5 Travelling during the weekend or out of the house for long period of time? Take protein and low calorie based snacks with you so your not reaching for calorie dense, low nutrient fast food. 6 Spend some down time with your self and time the opportunity for some self care. Is it a relaxing bath, some time in the garden, reading a book? Try and do something that nourishes the soul and doesn’t involve a screen. This could even be planning for the week ahead with some groceries and meal prep. #wintheweekend #mindfullness #healthybalance #activelifestyle #justeatrealfood #flexibledieting #nodeprivation

And the reality, is you don’t get get to take a moment to appreciate the life your living. ... So, take this day of rest to have a moment to recharge and enjoy the simple things in life. Is it a walk in the sunshine with friends or family, playing with your kids or your dog... or treating yourself to lunch out and a glass of bubbles... why... cause you are worth it! A happy, healthy life is about balance and not sweating the small stuff... take a moment to be mindful and appreciate all the good things in your world. And know that slow and consistent steps in the right direction will always get you to your goals quicker than significant restrictions that are not sustainable! #balancedlife #justeatrealfood #mindfullness #liveeachday #dontsweatthesmallstuff #flexibledieting #justeatrealfood #sundayfunday #onlinenutritioncoaching #healthylifestyle #poptheprosecco #slowandsteadyforthewin @ Latitude 30 Restaurant and Bar

14.01.2022 Why is everyone always talking about their steps? Steps are just an easy way to take into account and measure how much Non-Exercise Activity Time (NEAT) you do in a day. This has an impact how many calories you are burn in day, otherwise known as your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE).... This ‘Calories Out’ side of the equation is made up of four main elements: Basal Metabolic Rate, BMR is about 70% of TDEE and is the amount of energy required for your body to operate, sleep and breathe. Non-Exercise Activity Time, NEAT is about 15% of TDEE and is the amount of energy required for all of you subconscious bodily movements. Exercise Activity Time, EAT is about 5% of TDEE and is the time spent doing mindful exercise activities Thermic Effect of Food, TEF is about 10% of TDEE and is the energy required for the body to process the food you eat. As you can see above, NEAT has a far greater impact on burning calories each day than that 1 hour in the gym or on a bike, which most often overestimate. But NEAT can be so variable and if not monitored, can decrease significantly when we are in a calorie deficit. In a deficit our bodies will often try to conserve energy expenditure by decreasing typical movement and our mind will often say ‘you went to the gym this morn, rest up this arvo!’ These combined can reduce your NEAT, which can undermine your weight loss results as your calorie deficit is slowly eroded away. So it’s really important when trying to lose weight to monitor your NEAT levels and tracking steps is just a quick and easy tool to do this. #stepitout #onlinenutritioncoaching #balancedlifestyle #letsgetphysical #healthyhabits #whatgetsmeasuredgetsmanaged #justeatrealfood #fitandhealthy #livefitnutrition #getupandmove #iliketomoveitmoveit #neatup247 #caloriedeficit #macros

10.01.2022 The Look of Love . . Do you take the time to be mindful of what you are eating? ... . . In these challenging times many clients have been saying they are struggling with boredom, emotional or just mindless eating. So here are a couple of tips to help you be more mindful of what you are eating to help keep on track with your goals. . . Eat without distractions, can you leave your phone in another room so you’re not scrolling through social media Sit down to eat, away from work area and away from the TV, Take the time to chew and enjoy your food, Put down your knife and fork between mouthfuls . .

Can you wait ten minutes and ask yourself the same question and check in with your hunger levels . . Often a stall in your weight loss can be a result of this mindless eating and the little untracked ‘licks, bites and tastes’ that can add up to a couple of hundred calories each day which can take you out of a calorie deficit. . . #mindfuleating #healthylifestyle #justeatrealfood #flexibledieting #macros #onlinenutritioncoaching #healthynothungry #mindfulness #lifestylegoals #healthieryou #livefitnutrition #stepawayfromyourphone #cheweachmouthful So take control and be mindful not mindless when it comes to eating

05.01.2022 How to make Meal Prep super quick! We always encourage our clients to plan out meals in advance to save time, money and have delish food ready to go at all times. Use a meal planner to make life easy. One that includes a grocery list is super convenient. You can get from Kmart/online, or shout out and we’ll send you a copy of Livefit’s Meal Planner. Then pop this plan on the fridge for quick reference for the week.... Easy tips for Meal Plan & Prep: Make a plan and get the groceries. This may just be for 4 to 5 days at a time and run from Sun lunch to Fri Lunch, so more flexible on weekends. Buy portioned controlled ‘grab n go’ snacks, also helps with portion control! Look for good high protein, high fiber, low calorie snacks that you enjoy. Make enough dinner for two nights in a row. Gamechanger do this twice a week, saves cooking for two nights! We luv doing this on a Sunday night so Monday dinner is sorted as well as Wed so Thurs is done! Buffet style for lunches cook a large batch of lean protein (chicken breast, lean rissoles, pulled pork, turkey breast roast), prepared salads: coleslaw bags or bean/lentil salads. Roast a large tray of veg for quick wraps or add to salads. Our fav’s: pumpkin, parsnips, beetroot, cauliflower, zucchini, sweet potato. You then just make your lunch the night before or morning of. Great for the whole family as can tailor each meal or serve size. Breakfast we love making a big breakfast frittata on Sunday which has 6 serves (mon to wed for two). You can change the flavours each week for some variety but keep the basic recipe, so super quick. Pair this with a big bowl of quinoa, also cooked on Sunday, or with toast/bread options. Or overnight oats/porridge for a couple of days and again, prep the night before so ready to heat or eat the next morning. Frinners Frozen Dinners! Make that Sunday dinner a bigger meal that covers Mon night & a spare to freeze. Our favs include: soups, stews, lasagne’s, curry’s, savoury mince (tacos, on toast, loaded baked potato, on pizza, pasta or zoodles). Then you can grab one and heat up for a take away feel on Fridays, without all the cooking and extra calories!

05.01.2022 Stress less, Achieve more In today’s crazy and ever changing world, do you take a moment to catch your breath and to be mindful of You?... Over training, work stress, family demands, poor body image, social media FOMO, lack of sleep, poor quality nutrition, and just the constant hustle can create a considerable amount of stress in our lives. And this stress can impact our health and fitness goals considerably. Without getting too technical on a Friday, our bodies role is to manage our stress levels between ‘fight and flight’ and ‘rest & digest’ modes.

03.01.2022 The secret to fat loss Patience and consistency. Oh, and of course, be in a calorie deficit! To achieve fat loss, your body needs to be in a calorie deficit where it is burning more calories than you are consuming. Sounds super simple right, but the reality is that to achieve results this calorie deficit has to be maintained for a period of time. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and nether was the excess weight gain achieved in a short period of time. So this calorie deficit need...s to be achievable, and adherable so that you can consistently be in a deficit and get real, sustainable results. Fat loss gone for good, not just a summer! Now, of course, we want to see results in a short timeframe, but a calorie deficit that is too aggressive can be very hard to maintain and place high levels of stress on our bodies and emotions! Dieting is hard! A typical response to an extreme deficit can lead to a binge cycle created by restrictions and deprivation. This can also create a very poor emotional relationship with food and create poor habits of yoyo dieting which can have the reverse effect of fat gain over time, which ultimately takes you further away from your goals. Instead at Livefit Nutrition, we recommend a slow, steady, and sustainable approach to fat loss which is achievable and can work into your lifestyle. By creating healthier habits, using smart swaps and enjoying social occasions in a mindful manner, many clients find dieting so much easier to help them achieve their health goals. Life is meant to be enjoyed and not put on hold to get shredded! Slow and steady does win the race! And allows you to enjoy making memories and living your best life! #nodeprivation #justeatrealfood #memoriesovermacros #onlinenutritioncoaching #caloriefuckingdeficit #sustainableresults #flexibledieting #healthyhabits #mindfulness #balancedlifestyle #goals #consistenancy #patience #fatlossforever

02.01.2022 Why is everyone always talking about their steps? Steps are just an easy way to take into account and measure how much Non-Exercise Activity Time (NEAT) you do in a day. This has an impact how many calories you are burn in day, otherwise known as your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE). This ‘Calories Out’ side of the equation is made up of four main elements:... Basal Metabolic Rate, BMR is about 70% of TDEE and is the amount of energy required for your body to operate, sleep and breathe. Non-Exercise Activity Time, NEAT is about 15% of TDEE and is the amount of energy required for all of you subconscious bodily movements. Exercise Activity Time, EAT is about 5% of TDEE and is the time spent doing mindful exercise activities Thermic Effect of Food, TEF is about 10% of TDEE and is the energy required for the body to process the food you eat. As you can see above, NEAT has a far greater impact on burning calories each day than that 1 hour in the gym or on a bike, which most often overestimate. But NEAT can be so variable and if not monitored, can decrease significantly when we are in a calorie deficit. In a deficit our bodies will often try to conserve energy expenditure by decreasing typical movement and our mind will often say ‘you went to the gym this morn, rest up this arvo!’ These combined can reduce your NEAT, which can undermine your weight loss results as your calorie deficit is slowly eroded away. So it’s really important when trying to lose weight to monitor your NEAT levels and tracking steps is just a quick and easy tool to do this. #timetostepitout #onlinenutritioncoaching #balancedlifestyle #letsgetphysical #healthyhabits #whatgetsmeasuredgetsmanaged #justeatrealfood #fitandhealthy #livefitnutrition #getupandmove #iliketomoveitmoveit #neatup247 #caloriedeficit #macros
