Health BEFORE the Holidays with 9 Miles East

What’s trending on social media more than holiday shopping? Holiday HEALTH. 

I swear every other post I see on Facebook and Instagram are about how to cut carbs during the holidays, swapping traditional eggnog for a lighter version, and opting for the sugar free gingerbread cookies over the sugar-filled sugar cookies.

You know what I think? That way of living is lame. The holidays can be about indulging, and you shouldn’t feel guilty about it. 

I often get asked what my secret is for being able to eat sooooo much and still manage to fit in my jeans from college. Well, it’s more so about my lifestyle and how I choose to eat 80% of the time than how much I workout.

Growing up, I always loved my vegetables. In fact, if we didn’t have at least two veggies on our plates at dinner time, it didn’t feel complete. Now as an adult, I still focus mostly on the amount of vegetables I’m eating and eating whole, real foods.

That’s why partnering with 9 Miles East is never a question for me. They follow the same mission I do – eat your veggies and WHOLE foods and you’ll nourish your body without really thinking about it. We’re talking vegetables, whole grains like quinoa and brown rice, and legumes like pinto and black beans.

Eating this way just means you’ll have extra room for any guilty pleasures without feeling guilty (because no one should feel guilty about indulging in something they love.)

With the 9 Miles East Home Delivery, you’ll receive healthy, ready-to-eat meals delivered directly to your home in their specialized cooler on a day that works best for you. I mean… look at all that food above. IT’S A LOT OF GOODNESS.
