Chanel here. Welcome to menopause nutrition.
I believe women can thrive in menopause and
had the body composition of their choice if
they must have their nutrition and lifestyle.
Chanel here, your Menopause
nutrition.
And today, I am going to talk a
little bit about why
the Summer row pro slice on my meal
plan this week. And for those of you
who already follow me on social media, you
may have seen the real that I posted
yesterday
because
I have about
50 messages of people wanting the recipe. So
that doesn't surprise me because I can tell
you I'm just actually finished the piece. It
is actually delicious, and it looks delicious, but
we're going to talk about why, I I
am actually making it this week and, of
course, sharing the recipe with you guys.
But before we get started,
I just wanna remind you that if you
need help mastering your nutrition and lifestyle, I
am the person for the job.
And the reason I say that is I
am not only in men of was myself
or on my journey.
I have learnt from my own experience, but
I'm also a qualified nutrition, sports nutrition, health
coach, or So I have a lot of
reasons
that
I can help you in this in this
field and in this way. Because I have
turned my own journey around, and
I truly at 51 feel better than I
did when I was 21.
I say that because now I have more
muscle on my body. I have better awareness
of what I need to do. I know
now that when you turn 40, and things
have to change, and I teach people how
to learn these things. And you'll hear me
say this all the time.
When we know better we do better, and
this is why I have a program. I
have when I'm on coaching
because other people, and you may be wonder
if them listening in.
Might have been like me where I really
did not know anything about this stage of
life. Unfortunately, society does not set us up.
So we find ourselves often and a bit
of a mess, not understanding.
So this is what I do. And so
if you
miss the boat on the camera program. I
only run my programs 3 times a year.
So we're in currently
there's 50 women in right now in the
middle program, which is we're in week 5,
week 5. The weeks are going so fast.
Right now,
we'll then join the wait list for the
September 1 that will be the last program
I run this here.
1 and the wait list basically is where
you get updated on everything. You also will
get a very hefty bonus
bonus
discount. You'll get bonuses. Don't worry about that.
My waitlist is like my Vip list. So
it's definitely the place to be, but you
get a very hefty discount if you're do
decide to join the September program.
So definitely jump on that. I'll pop the
link here after we get finished.
And then if you're listening in and you're
like, you know what, I actually am sick
and tired of this, I'm not waiting to
a September, but I wanna get started right
away.
I think I have actually 1. Just 1
spot before I had to wait this on
my 1 on 1 coaching.
So let's jump on a call, have a
chat at see if you feel like I
can help you and we can get your
started straight away.
Otherwise, the wait for September is the option.
Right. So let's chat about this. My summer
roll
protein
slice. Is delicious. Like... And those of you
who have seen the real that is on
social media. You can see
by the real, it is delicious It tastes
amazing.
Now why am I making this? I'm making
this because
I like to have something free after lunch.
So
after lunch,
I have my high protein meal, which today
was the slow cooker, lemon grass chicken delicious,
but I always feel like a little something
for after lunch.
And I have gotten the bad habit I'm
having
a processed
protein bar.
And
as much as these have a place, they're
not something that I would recommend you consuming
on a daily basis, and I'm gonna talk
about why.
So I took the the
liberty of adding up how many ingredients are
on this
ingredients list, 24,
24 ingredients make up this. Now, this actually
has 15 grams protein in it. So
I actually... It's quite good. But
from a
amount of ingredients and the nature of the
ingredients,
24 ingredients has a lot of ingredients.
So
the the summer rolled
protein slice definitely does not have as much
protein, but I'm not actually consuming
this
2
trigger protein muscle synthesis if you like. Everything
I make, I add protein to because
that is just me because I'm obsessed with
protein. Right? Like, those of you can listen
and
protein is the queen over here for me.
And so If I can substitute an ingredient
for protein powder, then I'm going to do
it every day of the week because
if I can get more protein into my
diet, I will be doing it, and that's
how I roll. So... But I'm not
consuming this
necessarily
for it to be high protein how So
the the summer roll protein size, I think
it has 6 spoons a protein. So it's
not... You wouldn't class it as high protein,
but it has some protein and that's a
win. Tick. Right? Now, the reason I'm making
it is there's a couple of reasons. 1,
it's actually a lot cheaper than spend the
4 dollars 50 on a protein by every
everyday, 4 dollars 15, quite expensive if you
ended that up, like,
nearly 35 dollars a week and on protein
bars that's quite expensive.
The other reason is the ingredients first. So
like I mentioned, this bar has put 4
ingredients.
What that does is it just bends your
body is then going
into the digestion mode of processing all of
those 24 ingredients
when we make the summer wrong protein slice,
I think 6 ingredients
So there's quite a difference defense. All of
those ingredients are whole foods.
They're very, you know, they're very easily
accessible.
It's low in sugar because that's how we
roll over here. We know and we learn
and menopause that sugar is a trigger,
and we need to be mindful of it.
To the point where
on the weekend, I actually got some sugar
free jam because
sometimes before my workouts, I'll have, like, as
a pre workout snack, like a like a
rice cake and some peanut butter and or
whatever. And so gone to the sugar free
jam into the... Actually when I'm going to
be doing is making my own. I'm going
next week at the markets, I'm gonna buy
the berries.
I'm going to make sugar free jam myself.
Because sugar
is not something that serves us on a
menopause journey. It is metabolically active
in our body, and it can disrupt sleep
and
tri symptoms and all sorts of stuff. We
know, obviously, it spikes insulin, so that can
be problematic with belly fat
situation. There's a lot of issues like surrounding
it, get into that. And I teach that
right, on the thrive program.
Or if you're working with me, we really
dive in the sugar.
So that is 1 area. So when you
look at the recipe or you look at
the real, You may sue chocolate. The chocolate
I use a sugar free chocolate. I actually
just get the whole sugar free chocolate because
it's actually dairy free as well because over
here, missus high maintenance,
dairy free,
it's sugar free. As well. Tastes great.
So I just get the curls, sugar free
chocolate.
So
it... But it hits the spot right. It
gives me a little sweet
treats,
sugar free,
it's,
you know, whole ingredients that I know my
body will process easier,
than 24 ingredients and a processed.
So there's like a number of different reasons
why
you know, there's a a good reason for
setting aside 10 minutes because that's really how
much it really doesn't take long to make
this. And then you have got yourself something
if you will like me
and
the calories on it are a lot less
than this
particular potential protein bar as well. So
those are all the reasons why this week,
and I can tell the I'm super excited.
I've just had a piece
delicious. Just delicious.
So
bake If you are not already following me
on social media,
and you haven't seen the real, then,
because go go do that,
comment recipe because you need to be on
my email list un sending the email, the
recipe out via email so you have it,
you can all try it. And then what
I would like you to do is
because you need to be connected with me

on Social media to do this. You need
to message me and tell me after you
made it and let me know if you
think it's delicious. So those people already on

And then
you will get my weekly emails that I

like to send something out so you guys
can try my cooking and see what you

and it's just a little gift. To me
gift from me to you,
a week, so you can... It's... It's often
1 of my favorite things that I'm sending
out to you. So
usually something that is on my radar if
you like. So you get to try it,
you can test it out and see
if you like it, and then you get
to experiment with the food that I eat
because, those are people that are already doing
on a program
They know that
we need to be excited about the food
we eat, we need to be looking forward
to it. So when we are looking
you know, like lunchtime is coming. We should
be excited to eat our food. It shouldn't
be like chicken and Broccoli, and we're, like,
I'm really just am I'm not excited for
lunch. It should not be like that. You
should be excited to look forward to your
food It should taste amazing. It should also
be high protein and
serve you on your journey of health and
wellness.
It can do all of those things and
take all of those boxes.
And I know that because that's how I
live and eat, and that's how I teach
you.
