Hello everyone! I want to take a little time to introduce myself and give you a little information on what I do at StillPointe. My name is SarahErin Palmer and I am a Wellness Coach and Certified Personal Trainer, and I am also Certified in Nutrition. My focus is on helping people to lead healthier lives through nutrition. I will be meeting with each contestant to discuss their goals and help them make healthier food choices for themselves and their families. With the contestants I am also conducting BIA tests- which is a simple test that gives us a lot of information! It tells us the body fat percentage, fat-free mass percentage, based metabolic rate-how many calories the body burns during the day if sitting or resting all day, water weight and so much more. Some of the contestants will also receive an EDS test, which uses the same technology as a EKG. The test will tell us if a system or organ in the body is stressed, weakened, or balanced. With this system I am also able to test for food allergies/sensitivities, parasites, mold/fungus, bacterial infections, viruses, etc.
I am very excited to be working with Spirit 92.9 and all of the Biggest Gainer families! Here are some healthful tips to help you through this journey:
1. Have a "meal planning day" scheduled into every week. (For many, this is Sunday.) The whole family comes together to make meals and portable snacks for the coming weeks. This is a great way to have something healthy ready on the go. Some sample meals and snacks would include: a large vegetable soup or stew, stir fry with brown rice, trail mixes, or homemade granola.
2. Work veggies and fruits into ever meal and every snack. Fruits and Vegetables keep you full, energized and your bodies pH level balanced. They also supply your body with many vital nutrients, including fiber and water.
3. If you like to have a little flavor in your water, skip the artificial sweeteners and add a fresh lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit wedge. It's delicious and healthy!
I hope the above tips are helpful to you and your family. Remember: You only have one body, take care of it!
SarahErin
