I hate cooking. If there’s a pan involved, it might be too much work All right, well I don’t go that far, but usually I try to maintain a one-pan maximum and also a 10 minute max on time. However, we all know that the reality is, the more you cook the better you look (shout …

I make it a habit to ask people who sign up for my newsletter what their #1 struggle is with nutrition, exercise, mindset, etc. This is important for me because it gives me insight into what JillFit gals are working to improve and how I can help. The answer I get the most is this: …

I realize I blogged about this a few weeks ago. And that’s not by accident. In the last month, I have slept in my own bed a total of 3 nights, ha! I am sure many of you who travel for work can relate. Though it’s been an amazing and fun 30 days, it has …

“There is no one giant step that does it, it’s a lot of little steps.” –Peter A. Cohen Last night, I was catching up with my sister-in-law and JillFit Coach Jillian Teta since we hadn’t seen each other in over a month with travel and crazy schedules. You all know Jillian, and you know that …

This past weekend on the ME Lifestylers‘ community page, a member was lamenting having to travel for work and was worried about how to stay “on plan” while traveling. I love this problem! Why? Because I believe this about healthy eating and exercise: If you can make the right choices while traveling, you can make …

Part of living a lean lifestyle is learning how to bend your diet without breaking it. Which means meeting yourself where you are and being realistic when you need convenience options, but never going overboard. In an ideal world, we’d all have the time, energy and desire to make all of our food fresh daily …

I remember a few years ago when I was meeting with a potential competition client. During the initial session, she asked me if she had to give up ketchup and butter during the prep. I remember thinking how odd this was. NO, OF COURSE YOU CAN’T HAVE THOSE ON A COMPETITION PLAN! Lol. But a …

In Part 1, I revealed some of the key insights I had in 2012 about mindset. Today I want to talk about body, and how I learned so much more about physique change, willpower and the desire for “The Perfect Body” in 2012. Between the years of 2006 and 2009, I did a lot of …

By Dr. Jillian Teta Digestion certainly is not the most elegant topic to discuss, yet discussion becomes necessary and warranted when we consider that digestive health plays a major role in body composition, overall health, whether you are prone to be overweight, and even if you are having difficulty losing fat in “problem areas” like …

By Dr. Jillian Teta In case you haven’t noticed, here at JillFit we are kind of obsessed with eggs. Eggs, in fact, have often been touted as the “perfect food”, and for the most part we agree! We use them as an integral part of physique optimization and maintaining leanness year-round. Let’s break it down …

Getting a lot of questions in the JillFit Lifestyle group this week about how to curb cravings for sugar, so I thought I’d share some of my favorite DOABLE tactics. I’ll admit, I used to be a huge Sugar Queen, and even still at times, I have an insatiable sugar tooth, but I’ve dealt with …

Let’s just get this out of the way right now–under no natural circumstances can a drug-free woman EVER look like this: Bodybuilder Jay Cutler So the idea that any woman will blow up the point of looking like a man is truly absurd–especially considering even MEN have a hard time putting on legitimate muscle, and …

Personally, I follow a low-carb diet. I do well on it–I’m able to maintain my weight, have good energy and also feel satisfied with fairly mild cravings, at less than 50g of starchy carbs per day. However, everyone is different when it comes to nutrition, and certainly when it comes to this somewhat controversial macronutrient. …

It’s Thanksgiving in the states, and I am visiting my mom and stepdad in Florida with Jade and Dan. 2012 has been an amazing year, and I was just telling Jade that it has been the Year of the Mindset for me, especially considering I started with my first spiritual coach last year and hired …

If I had a nickel for every time someone asked me about losing their gut….well, I’d have at least $20 But seriously, it seems that for many people, losing lbs from their midsection is a lifelong battle, and no matter how much exercise they do, it’s the stubborn middle that remains. Well, what I am …

By Jillian Teta It has been so interesting to me to watch the subtle shift in JillFit’s approach to body transformation.

I was inspired to write this post after reading an great blog post from Chris Guillebeau, from The Art of Non-Conformity blog. Love everything he puts out (check out his best-seller ‘The Art of Non-Conformity‘), but the blog I read today really resonated with me. It was about letting go of what other people think …
