You can get results, you just have to get started.
People often ask me “What is the best way to begin this lifestyle?”
Although, going in at 100% is ideal, it is not always realistic for many people.
For those who just want to know a quick way to start, here is my recommendation:
Start by replacing just your lunch for a week or two.
Next, replace all your dinners. Eat all you want till comfortably full.
Your results will motivate you to complete the transition. Find recipes like the one in this “Hey, I can Make That!” series with few ingredients that take little time to prepare.
Delicious warm or cold over any grain or on a baked potato, which can be batch cooked in the oven.

Back in February, I had the opportunity to take a Hula Hoop lesson. It was a lot of fun. I could not believe that I was able to Hula Hoop!
When I was a child, I totally failed at this. After a few quick tips from Heather from Peace, Love and Hoopiness, I was actually able to keep my hoop up for 1/2 a minute! I was hooked and began to hula hoop at home for at least five minutes a day. After learning how to hoop, I wanted to share it with all of you.
I have helped many people maintain this lifestyle. If you would like help to learn ways to navigate this lifestyle, please contact me for a coaching session. I have learned many strategies, tips and hacks while coaching people since 2012. I would love to help you be successful as well.

When I first began this lifestyle, there were many dishes which we did not care for and just throw in the garbage. I finally learned that the trick is to make the (new to you) sauce separately. Taste the sauce first and if you like it you can later add to beans, potatoes, steamed or roasted vegetables. This helps to avoid waste and frustration.
I am fortunate to have created a group which meets twice monthly for healthy, Pot Luck dinners. We try to incorporate presentations before we eat. I found this yummy and versatile recipe for mayonnaise, which also makes a great base for other sauces.
I would love to provide you with more help in adopting this lifestyle. Please contact me for acoaching session.

I had not eaten pudding since adopting this lifestyle in 2012. When Beverly, a member of my WFPB Meetup group, brought this dish to our pot luck dinner, it rocked my world! I hope it rocks your world too! Don’t let the ingredients fool you. As with many dishes in our lifestyle, healthy ingredients can put a delicious twist on a dish.
