| From Your Nutritionist, Katy
You’re working out consistently, eating “pretty healthy,” and still not seeing the results you want? Your nutrition may be the missing piece.
Here are 5 common mistakes that could be slowing your progress:
- Not eating enough protein
Protein supports muscle recovery, helps maintain lean muscle, and keeps you feeling full. Try including a protein source at every meal.
- Skipping meals or eating too little
Eating as little as possible isn’t always the answer. Undereating can leave you tired, overly hungry, and more likely to overeat later.
- Forgetting about the extras
Dressings, oils, sauces, specialty coffees, snacks, and “just a handful” of something can add up. You don’t have to track every calorie, just start paying attention.
- Being too strict during the week
Eating perfectly Monday through Friday and then treating the weekend as a free-for-all can make it difficult to reach your goals. You don’t need to eliminate your favorite foods; you need balance and consistency.
- Trying to change everything at once
A complete diet overhaul rarely lasts. Instead, focus on one or two realistic habits and build from there.
The Bottom Line
Getting results isn’t about eating perfectly or spending more hours at the gym. It’s about finding a nutrition approach that works for you and that you can actually maintain.
If you’re putting in the work but aren’t seeing the progress you want, a personalized nutrition consultation can help identify what’s holding you back and create a realistic plan based on your goals.
