If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you might have seen our big announcement this week that we are launching a NEW version of our meal planning service, called Take Back The Kitchen! 

Here’s the full story!

I always wanted to be one of those moms who had a perfect meal plan, and gorgeous home cooked dinners on the table each night. I pictured myself like those moms on magazine covers, where the family is sitting around this beautifully decorated table, smiling at each other and in pure DELIGHT just because they’re together. Afterall, when Jake and I were first married I cooked a lot. It was fun back then! I imagined it would only get better with kids! (My pre-mom self was so naive! ?)

When I had 4 kids under 4 hanging at my feet every evening when I was trying to cook, it was the last thing from relaxing or fun. If I had a centerpiece on the table it was often moved and set up high where they couldn’t destroy it. Getting them all to sit at the table at the same time was a full time job, and instead of smiles there was constant whining and crying and STRESSING. I would put so much work into a meal that NO ONE appreciated or barely touched. 

It didn’t take me long to learn I wasn’t going to continue spending so much time in the kitchen. We kept it super simple if we made dinner at home, but there were SO many nights when life was just too crazy and we’d end up grabbing take-out or fast food. 

I knew we were in survival mode, but I wasn’t satisfied with the path we were on. No matter how crazy our life was, meal time was constantly on the back of my mind! I wanted to feel the peace of knowing that as a mom I was doing whatever I could to instill healthy habits into our family. But it felt impossible. 

Two years ago when I was in the thick of all this, we launched a branch of our business that included a family meal planning service called Take Back The Kitchen. We have helped thousands of families get started on the right path! ??

It has been AWESOME to watch moms feel EMPOWERED to take back their kitchens and prioritize family meal times.

One piece that we feel has still been missing though, is the WHY behind why healthy eating matters, and a crash course about nutrition in general. With so many fad diets and gimmicks out there claiming to be the answer, it can be so confusing to know what to believe, and what to teach our kids. 

The most important thing to our team is teaching sustainable healthy eating that you can actually maintain over the long haul. We want to instill habits into our children that they can carry with them so that they don’t have to struggle to figure it out like we have. 

We are so excited to announce that NEXT WEEK we are launching a BRAND NEW TAKE BACK THE KITCHEN that will take EVERYTHING to the next level! It’s simple, easy to understand, and effortless to implement! 

As we’ve talked to so many of you who have had success with your nutrition, we’ve learned that you thrive on structure and everything being mapped out for you. We’ve also learned that the people who are succeeding have put time and effort into educating themself on WHY nutrition matters!
For this reason, the NEW TBTK aligns PERFECTLY with Beachbody’s new nutrition course, called the Ultimate Portion Fix! What we’ve done is found NEW recipes to share with you each week that align with the portion control container system, but are still SIMPLE and KID-FRIENDLY! You can feel 100% confident about feeding your family things they will like while staying on track with your macronutrient and calorie counts!
Have you heard about the Ultimate Portion Fix? If you’d done Beachbody workout programs in the last five years, you’ve probably owned a set of these containers! Recently, Beachbody launched an actual nutrition course to go with them and it’s AMAZING. It covers everything from why every food group matters and the roles they play, to teaching your kids how to actually eat healthy! It’s awesome because it’s no longer mom getting healthy while the rest of the family is left to do something separate. This is truly for FAMILIES to figure out a long term healthy lifestyle. EVERY Mom needs this course in her life! Here’s what’s cool too. Beachbody workouts are optional. If you WANT to do them you can, but if you have another workout regimen that you prefer, you can JUST do this nutrition course and implement the principles! 

In each NEW TBTK issue, you will find:
  • 1 new Shakeology, Energize, Recover, Daily Sunshine, or BeachBar recipe
  • 1 success story called “Cook’s Corner” from a TBTK member who has transformed her kitchen
  • 1 new breakfast option
  • 1 new lunch option for you
  • 1 new lunch option for the kiddos
  • 5 new dinner options
Our hope is that each week, you will have NEW options to feel inspired in the kitchen without having to do a bunch of searching. You’ll discover family favorites that you can make on repeat, and have new recipes hand delivered to you to keep it FRESH!
As we re-launch TBTK and align ourselves with the Ultimate Portion Fix moving forward, we will be changing the TBTK requirements a bit. All NEW TBTK members will purchase the Ultimate Portion Fix nutrition course to start. We are confident the course will give them the foundation of knowledge and a deeper WHY to implement a healthy lifestyle!  You will receive 4 weeks of menu with your original purchase, delivered to your email every Friday! 
Each month we will run an Ultimate Portion Fix Group to welcome in new members! Our next Ultimate Portion Fix Group starts on Monday, April 22nd! The first two weeks we’ll go through the course (10 – 20 minutes per day of videos), and then starting on Monday May 6th, we’ll start incorporating portion control for our 30 days challenge! I’d love to have you! Our ladies in the group right now are CRUSHING their meal planning and implementation! It’s been AMAZING to cheer them on! 
Here are some results from ladies who’ve been implementing Ultimate Portion Fix for 30 days! 
Oh, and these are my results after 21 days! Down 5 pounds and 5 inches! It’s honestly AMAZING how dialing in your nutrition expedites your results!
This group will take place in a private Facebook group where I’ll walk you through the course! In addition to what you will learn with the Ultimate Portion Fix, I will also be posting daily encouragement from a  book called “Made To Crave” by Lysa TerKeurst which is a faith based book that teaches us how to satisfy our deepest desire with God, not food! 
As a small group, we will meet “in person” weekly via a virtual video conference call, to check in and hold each other accountable!  
Here’s a little more about the content you can expect inside this nutrition course! 

  • Break your sugar addiction: You’ll learn WHY you’re addicted to sugar (because knowledge is power) and how you can break the addiction. You’ll be armed with grocery lists, meal plans, and easy-to-make recipes that emphasize whole-food ingredients, so you can finally cut down on processed foods without cutting out the joy of eating. I’ll coach you through discarding the hidden sugars that are so destructive to reaching your goals!
  • Get the whole family healthy: Those days of prepping one meal for the kids and one for the adults are over. We’ll cover everything from what and how much your kids should be eating, to getting them to eat enough fruits and veggies, and even how to end the “I’m only eating chicken nuggets for dinner” battle once and for all!
  • Feed yourself for performance: You’ll learn how you can customize your eating plan to your goal, whether it’s to lose those stubborn last 10 pounds or build muscle. The proven nutrition strategies are designed to maximize your nutrition so you can maximize your results — whether you’re paleo, vegan, or gluten-free.
