Description

Using macros to form a balanced diet has become a very popular trend. But hitting your macros with success takes more than just knowing your numbers. This course is more than just a calculator, it contains practical information on how to get to your goal macros with success. I go through with you step by step how to build a plan without turning your life upside down and giving up every food you love. I also supply PDF resources with macro friendly proteins and how to calculate alcohol macros into your plan.

This course is intended for beginners and those that have tried macro diets in the past without success. I go through the most common mistakes I see as a coach and teach you how to navigate past them for success.

If you are tried of feeling overly restricted with food, taking this course and learning how all food can fit will be a game changer for you. Following a macro based way of eating is how I have been able to lose and keep off 60 lbs. I truly have found a balance and love of food and I'm so excited to share that with you! -Teresa Johnson, CPT, HKC, PN1
