Have you ever heard someone say that you need to t

Have you ever heard someone say that you need to track your food intake in order to make sure you’re getting enough nourishment?

I’ve seen this advice spread around the internet, even by well-intended dietitians.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to make this kind of a blanket recommendation for all people.

There are a few key reasons why:
-It’s simply not necessary
-It’s often inaccurate
-It can lead to or exacerbate disordered eating

The reality is we don’t need to meticulously measure and analyze every bite we eat in order to consume plenty of nutrients.

If you’ve ever tracked your intake, how did it make you feel? What impact did it have on your relationship with food? What impact did it have on your relationship with your body?

You might be wondering, how do you get enough nourishment without tracking what you eat?

I’m here to share with you a few core nutrition strategies that are a better use of your mental energy rather than tracking what you eat!

These key strategies are important skills for healthful eating that will help you build long-term, sustainable eating habits that are both nourishing and satisfying!

How are you celebrating World Vegan Month? 🐮🐷🐔🐣🐵🐰🐶🐱🐝🕷️🐟

No sanctuary visits planned for us this month but here’s a sweet pic from when we visited @heartlandfarmsanctuary this past summer. How sweet for my tot to bear witness to animals who are treated with respect and compassion.

Don’t we all deserve that?

While sharing information and recipes online is an effective advocacy strategy, it’s really nice to remember why we’re doing this and actually spend time with animals and support those who are rescuing, rehabilitating and caring for them.

If you’re able to visit a sanctuary I highly recommend it! In addition to donations, visitor revenue is a key way that sanctuaries are able to survive and do the work they do.

Have you ever visited a sanctuary? What was it like? Who did you meet?

ID: Taylor’s husband is standing in the doorway of a barn holding their toddler daughter while looking out at and pointing toward a black and white cow who is laying in a pile of hay. The cow’s name is Daisy and she was rescued from a cattle auction. In the distance is a wooden fence, green pasture and grove of trees. The sun is shining on the cow (sunbathing is one of her favorite pastimes) and there are a few white clouds low in the blue sky.

A reminder about our values, both as a business and as humans.

We are anti-oppression and pro-liberation. For humans and non-human animals. Always have been, always will be.

While we are healthcare providers and nutrition is our specialty, we understand that systems of oppression impact everyone and all forms of oppression are linked.

We are not experts on (or even aware of) every single issue in the world but you can expect to see us sharing and supporting anti-oppression content and causes, including calling for a ceasefire and liberation of Palestinians.

We aren’t here to act as an authority on these issues but we do encourage you to consider your place in working toward liberation for all. There are so many roles in activism. What do you have the abilities and resources to do in this season of life? How can you can be the most effective?

Sitting here safe in the US, it can be easy to feel helpless. Remember that the oppressed want and need us to share their stories and struggles. They need us to show up. Call your government leaders (@5calls makes it super easy, please do it if you haven’t already). Participate in the marches. Talk with those in your community about what you can do collectively. Read about the history. Donate to mutual aid funds + bail funds for arrested protesters. Support organizers. Connect with other collective liberationists.

Remember, this is lifelong work. This isn’t about checking boxes for this one issue. We all need to make activism a sustainable part of our lives. We’re working, we’re parenting, we’re living and we’re protesting, we’re resisting, we’re fighting. We’re here with you. ❤‍🩹

Negative body image is something many of us strugg

Negative body image is something many of us struggle with, and adults aren’t the only ones! Kids of all ages have to contend with societal pressures, unsolicited comments and their own insecurities about their size, shape and appearance.

I was honored to write a guest post for @vegan.kids.nutrition blog all about this important topic!

While parents and caregivers can’t control kids’ body image, we can certainly help them build a healthy relationship with their bodies and cultivate resilience to unrealistic body standards.

Positive body image is characterized by self-acceptance, embodiment and self-compassion.

Positive body image doesn’t = a positive opinion of our appearance. The goal isn’t to think we look good all the time, it’s to move away from an external focus to an internal focus.

Rather than trying to love the way we look, we direct our energy toward resisting the objectification of bodies and thinking less about how they look.

We want kids to value much more about themselves than how they look!

We want our kids to show up for themselves with curiosity and compassion rather than criticism and shame. ❤️

Sometimes feeding little kids looks like serving t

Sometimes feeding little kids looks like serving them the same thing you're eating.

Sometimes it's making them something different.

Sometimes it's throwing together something super simple and easy.

Sometimes it's a pouch in the grocery store.

And sometimes it's sharing your burger and tots out at a restaurant.

Sometimes my kid eats all of the food I offer her. Sometimes she eats none. Most of the time she eats some.

Feeding kids isn't about perfection and while a lot about parenting may bring stress, hopefully feeding kids isn't a big stressor.

I'll be honest, even though I'm a vegan registered dietitian, I don't specialize in pediatric nutrition and I had to do a bit of learning in preparation for feeding my first kid. No shame here!

Thanks to @vegan.kids.nutrition courses and supplement guide, I feel totally confident in the foods, beverages and supplements I give to my daughter! I don't worry that she's not getting what she needs or that I need to spend hours a week planning meals and snacks for her. And I am SO relieved that I don't have to spend countless hours researching supplements for vegan littles!

Karla of @vegan.kids.nutrition is a fellow vegan mama and pediatric registered dietitian. She has been my go-to source for evidence-based info on vegan kids nutrition for years. She is the first place I send folks when they ask about this topic!

I believe in Karla's resources so much that I became an affiliate for them! If you've been around awhile you know that I rarely if ever do any sort of affiliations, so you know that I'm serious when I say these resources are amazing!

Affiliate link in bio to Karla's courses + guides. Her website is also loaded with great info, as is her newsletter which I highly recommend signing up for!
