Nicole’s Food Philosophy
No foods are “good” or “bad.”
While some foods are healthier than others, labeling them “bad” can create an unhealthy relationship with food. Instead, enjoy everything in moderation.
Focus on whole foods.
Forget about shakes, bars, and cleanses. Good nutrition means eating real food.
Make veggies the star.
Plan your meals around vegetables. They should shine at your table, while proteins and grains play supporting roles. This simple change can boost your energy and help with weight management.
Do what you can.
Healthy eating is possible no matter where you shop. I can help you make smart choices that fit your lifestyle, whether you’re at a supermarket or a local store.
Keep moving.
Exercise is essential. Whether through weightlifting, calisthenics, or sports, it’s important to set aside time for physical activity.
