Supplements, Macronutrients, and the Love Story My Body Needed
Oct 29, 2023
Hello, beautiful souls! It's Nicole here. I hope you're nestled comfortably with your favorite drink in hand, because I’ve got a story to share - a mix of misadventures, revelations, and lots of learning!
A few years ago, I stumbled upon supplements that genuinely made a difference in my health. They were like that unexpected text that lights up your day - a pleasant surprise in a world of health gimmicks. But, as time went on, I started realizing something. These supplements, as magical as they felt, had their limits. Imagine relying solely on fairy lights when what you really need is the sun. That was me: trying to brighten my health with these tiny glimmers when a more significant, more radiant source was waiting.
That’s when macros danced into my life.
For the uninitiated, macronutrients are the biggies: proteins, carbs, and fats. They’re the main sources of our energy, the foundation blocks of our nutrition. While cutting calories can lead to weight loss, it was the balance of these macros that truly determined the *quality* of that loss. Did I want to just lose weight, or did I want to feel strong, vibrant, and empowered in my skin?
With macros, it wasn’t just about eating less; it was about eating right (but in an intentional and thoughtful way, not restrictive or guilt-ridden). It became clear that without giving my body the proper nourishment, even the best supplements could only do so much.
I share this journey with you not as an expert, but as a fellow traveler. A woman who’s waded through the murky waters of diet trends, looking for that island of genuine, sustainable health. And while supplements did throw me a lifeline, it was understanding my body's needs and the magic of macronutrients that built me a boat.
If there's one thing I want you to take away from my little tale, it's this: nourishing your body is a love story. One where understanding meets action. Where health isn’t a destination, but a delightful, ongoing dance.
I wish for all you amazing women to uncover this secret for yourselves: the beauty of truly understanding what your body needs and giving it just that, with love and joy.
Let's journey together, shifting away from the quick fixes and diving deep into genuine self-care and nourishment. Because, my dear, you deserve nothing less than the best.
Big love and warm hugs,
Nicole π
