  • It's actually not so random....It's based on getting as many nutrient dense foods with as much variety as I can.
  • I go to the garden and grab a big leaf of kale and one of Swiss chard, some grape tomatoes and maybe a few nasturtium leaves, throw that in the blender with a handful of baby carrots, a scoop of protein powder, a clove of garlic, a banana, a quarter cup of frozen blueberries and a cup of plain almond milk.

  • Mostly water, but sometimes I need something different, so a Zevia or a Steaz can really hit the spot. Once in a great while I hit Starbucks and splurge on an iced green tea.

You need way more nutrient rich food AND to go easier on your self. On top of not losing weight, the way…
