Meal Prep Tips for Balanced Blood Sugar

Everyone is always asking us for new recipes, and we’re like... 😬

Of course our members get all our favorite meals and we share a ton here...

But, The...

Eating a macronutrient balanced meal can be one of the most delicious, satiating, and nourishing moments of your day.

Without fail, every time I eat in the perfect balance for my body, I legit feel like I’ve had 10 cups of coffee without the jitters.

You won’t be lethargic afterward - you’ll have so much energy that people might accuse you of being annoyingly joyful 🤣

You’ll feel satiated but not unbutton-your-pants-and-lay-on-the-couch-in-a-Netflix-and-binge-food-coma kinda way.

You’re mood will be so stable, you’ll find yourself wondering if the world’s problems could be solved by simple balancing of blood sugar.

Your sleep will improve leaps and bounds, which keeps old cravings at bay over time.

You’ll crush your workouts and apologize to your body for all the times you said no to quality complex carbs - the body’s preferred source of fuel.

The easiest way to make balanced meals and reduce decision making fatigue of “what the F to eat”, is: meal prepping.

Download our cheat sheet for how to identify macronutrients. Then, choose two proteins, complex carbs, and fibrous carbs to cook each week. It could look like:

  • Chicken and bison
  • Rice and sweet potatoes
  • Broccoli and cauliflower

Fats are extremely nutrient dense at 9 calories per gram and will likely be included in your meal prep and/or if you're consuming animal protein, so make sure not to overdo it on the oil and sauces - a little bit goes a long way!

Did you know that you can lose body fat at least 30% faster by focusing on macronutrient balancing and strength training instead of just cardio and starving yourself?

If you’re just looking to lose weight without regard to your overall health, muscle retention, and hormonal balance... we’re probably going to ask you to give us a hot minute to explain how this all works 🤓

We strategically support increased strength and *fat* (loss if desired)... not weight loss at the expense of your health.

Long-term fat loss while retaining or growing muscle mass requires specific attention to balanced macronutrients (including water) + a stimulus like progressive strength training.

We’re not interested in helping you crash diet, do a crap ton of cardio, and slashing calories steeply just to lose water weight and muscle in an effort to get “skinny”.

We understand if this is one of your goals when starting with us... and we will stand by your side, smiling, if you wake up and realize one day that you actually love the feeling of having muscle to support your frame, additional food intake, and energy levels 💪

And no, you won’t get bulky unless you want to by eating in a major surplus and/or taking steroids :)

What our members are saying:

"This year's live workouts have kept me sane - they've made it so easy just to turn up and workout when I've just wanted to slide into a pandemic-cocoon on the couch. And what's more the classes are fun - I have really valued having workout buddies to sweat alongside and the support and encouragement of the GDL family. I've also really appreciated the thought behind the progressive programming - and of course Shannon's instruction is among the best in the business - somehow she can make sure that everyone's form is on point via Zoom. :-) Not sure I'm going to go back to live gym workouts any time soon." ~Anya C.

"I worked with Shannon back in 2019 and got to my goal weight in 5 months. She gave me all the tools I needed to succeed while we worked together.

Then COVID hit and I ate / slept / sat on my couch and the weight came roaring back.

Along with the extra pounds, my mental head space was a mess as well. Now with the support of GDL, I weigh less than I was pre-COVID and feel great inside & out." ~Michelle Y.
