    Your videos are amazing! Ive been slowly watching all of them the past few days. i find avocado and lemon make a good "dressing" for salad, if you stir the avocado around it thins out and becomes dressing like. I think im going to start taking this approach to my meals, i just need to get my husband on board.

    Homemade dressings are the absolute best!
    If you're ever looking for something new try this one out. It's so good.
    Greek salad dressing
    2/3 cups olive oil
    1/4 red wine vinegar
    4-6 minced cloves of garlic
    2 T oregano
    1 tsp salt
    1 tsp pepper

    Great advice. I love the fact you mention read the labels. I watch another channel with Bobby Parrish FlavCity. He breaks down the labels and hits different grocery stores to show what to buy & what to avoid. Love your channel!

    Yet another great video! Thank you. I am a hard gainer and struggle getting enough healthy calories and the way you breakdown the portions makes so much sense. I just started (again) to try to track my meals and calories using MyFitnessPal. It's very overwhelming trying to eat more food than normal, but I am trying to do it the healthy way. I really enjoy the videos, keep up the great work!

    I don't know. I love eating too much. I've been keto for a few months but was still able to eat "to much" I mean I was working out so I put on muscle as well
    What I'm trying to say is that I really want to achieve this extra leanness but my eating is too much of a mess right now
    I'm really looking forward to some more helpful tips. Keep it up :)

    Hi Kristi. I'm a really big fan and supporter of yours!!!!
    I was just hoping you could offer a few words of advice because I recently found a pretty big wood log to use for exercise, and thought maybe to try: Shoulder Carries for distance, alternating shoulder presses, and "bear hug" squats with the log. I'm not an expert on fitness, but if you have a moment I could really use your encouragement. You're such a great motivational speaker......

    • @Kristi-Eramo-OConnell
      @Kristi-Eramo-OConnell  4 года назад

      Yes I do believe so. When I increase training around certain competitions I will increase my carb intake and lower my fats. That is not sustainable for me to maintain all year round or good for hormones do I make sure to only do it for a few weeks at a time when prepping for comp to make sure I am fueled appropriately
