How I Got Back on Track After the Holidays and Mexico!
Hey babes,
Let’s be real—the holidays and my trip to Mexico took me out! I fully enjoyed myself (as we all should!), but when I got back, I knew I needed to reset and get back to feeling my best. So, I went back to square one with my routine, and it worked! If you’ve been wanting to get back on track too, here’s exactly what I did.
Step 1: Cleaning Up My Diet
I didn’t do anything extreme—just simple and sustainable changes that made a big difference. Here’s my daily breakdown:
Breakfast: High Protein, No Carbs
I started my mornings with protein-packed meals to keep me full and avoid that mid-morning crash. Some go-to’s:
- Eggs + chicken sausage (love the jalapeño one from Trader Joe’s) + avocado
- Cottage cheese + berries + a drizzle of honey
- Scrambled tofu + spinach + feta
To curb my sugar cravings, I ended every meal with a cup of tea and a little honey. My favorite tea helps with bloating and inflammation—link below!
Lunch: Balanced & Measured Carbs
For lunch, I added one measured cup of carbs and kept my protein and greens strong:
- Protein: Salmon, chicken, steak, or beef
- Carb: Brown rice, quinoa, sweet potato
- Greens: Spinach, arugula, or mixed greens
Again, tea after every meal! It’s been a game-changer.
Dinner: No Carbs, Just Protein & Greens
I kept dinner light but filling with a mix of lean protein and a good salad. Some favorites:
- Grilled chicken + Greek salad
- Shrimp + sautéed kale
- Turkey lettuce wraps
I also made sure to drink a gallon of water every day. My favorite glass water bottle helped me stay on track—link below!
Step 2: Moving My Body!
With my crazy schedule, I couldn’t do full workouts every day, so I focused on Pilates 3-4x a week. It helped me rebuild core strength and tone up without feeling burned out. I also started adding in morning walks now that the weather is getting nicer.
Step 3: My Go-To Supplements
I’ve been getting a ton of questions about this! Here’s what I take daily:
- Cleanse Pills – These helped me reset after Mexico. Now I take them 1-2x a week to keep things moving! 😉
- HUM Probiotic – Keeps my digestion on point.
- HUM Green Tea Gummies – For energy and metabolism support.
The Results
After a month of sticking to this routine, I felt so much better—less bloated, more energized, and back in my groove. I’m still keeping up with everything and making small tweaks as needed.
Final Thoughts
This wasn’t about restriction—it was about getting back to balance. If you’re feeling stuck, start with one small change and build from there. Let me know if any of these tips helped you, and if you’re doing your own reset, tag me on IG—I’d love to cheer you on! 💖
