Portion Control - My holy grail 🙌🏾 There’s a huge misconception out there that everyone can just eat “intuitively” and be perfectly fine. Now don’t get me wrong, this may work for the select few but most of us do not do well with this approach (especially when actively trying to lose weight) and here’s why: WE ARE UNAWARE OF WHAT AN APPROPRIATE PORTION IS. ... You may “intuitively” eat an entire bag of almonds but guess what? That’s a huge number of calories and while it’s a healthy option, you CAN have too much of a good thing while aiming to lose weight. ... So if you need to meal prep, measure, use a food scale, calorie count etc. that’s okay! This will help you learn how much to eat. With time it will become more automatic or in other words more intuitive. . . . . . . . . #portioncontrol #postpartumweightloss #postpartumweightlossjourney #weightlossaftertwins #weightlossjourney #weightlossafterbaby #weightlossafterpregnancy #weightlossaftercsection #momlife #healthcoachlife #twinmom #twinmomlife #mealplanning #eatlikeyouloveyourself #mywellnessjourney #myhealthjourney #mommyblogger #healthylifestyle

Back at it ☺️✨ While my diet is no longer 100% plant based since my pregnancy with my girls (blog post explaining this further coming soon!), it’s definitely plant focused 🌱 and well balanced. I’m enjoying getting back to the basics and making my health and wellness a priority again. Happy Sunday 🌞 . . . . . . . #plantfocusednutrition #plantfocused #plantfocusedmeals #postpartumjourney #postpartumweightloss #postpartumweightlossjourney #postpartumhealth #momoftwins #twinmomlife #twinmoms #moditwins #healthylifestyle #balancedeating #groceryhaul #blackmombloggers #mangomaverick #cleaneats #healthcoachlife #momofmultiples #myhealthjourney #consistency #2020goals

It’s been SUCH a long time since I’ve meal prepped and my god does it feel good to have it done. The two major perks of meal prepping for me is convenience and portion control. I’ve been avoiding it for weeks now but this 20 pounds isn’t going to lose itself so here we go 💪🏾 . . . . . . #mealprep #mealprepping #mealpreppingmama #backtothegym #postpartumweightloss #postpartumjourney #healthyliving #healthylifestyle #healthyhabits #twinmom #momoftwins #lifeafterbabies #weightlossjourney #wellnessjourney #saylessdomore #reachingmygoals #myjourneytohealth #myjourneytofit #nolabels

Late post 😩 but I cannot believe these 2 are 6 months old. Their bond and little personalities are blossoming more and more each day and words can’t express how grateful I am to be able to watch them grow 🥰🥰 . . . . . . #twins #twinsofinstagram #momofmultiples #momoftwins #twingirls #moditwins #blacktwins #africanamericantwins #identicaltwins #twinlife #twinning #twinmom #twinmomlife #momlife #girlmom

Postpartum is a time when self care can go by the way side. It’s so easy to bury your needs underneath the babies’ needs, housework and other tasks. ::: This past weekend I set the intention to be more diligent with my self care. I enjoyed a mani/pedi, enrolled in 6 weeks of kickboxing and also will be making sure I get a moment to myself to enjoy a cup or two of tea. ::: Teami Relax tea is one of my favorites to unwind with. The touches of peppermint, lavender and chamomile are absolutely soothing. Here’s a small token to help you get started with self care: Use my codes @teamiblends MANGO15 - 15% off any order MANGO30 - 30% off $34 Thanks for the support ❤️ ::: From one mom to another and to anyone who needs a little more “me” time please do yourself and everyone around you a favor and make it happen. . . . . . . #thankyouteami #teamipartner #postpartum #selfcare #selfcaresis #metime #teatime #looseleaftea #looseleaf #winddown #relax #chamomile #lavendar #peppermint #wholefoods #wholefoodplantbased #naturalhealing #holisticliving #holisticlifestyle #healingherbs #motherhood #crunchymamas #selfimprovement #selflove #wellnessjourney #weightlossjourney #postpartumweightloss
