Hey Divas!
Protein helps to repair, build and shape those fabulous ” muskies ” of yours while you burn calories to reduce fat. Whey protein supplements can be used as an exercise recovery drink within about a half hour of exercise; It can also be used as an occasional meal replacement.
So what exactly is Whey? Whey protein is natural part of dairy products like yogurt for example. You may see it a lot in the stores as a supplement shake in big jars. Be careful not to take too much if you experience bloating or headaches it’s not a good look for a diva and you are trying to do a bit too much. Studies recommend one gram per kilogram of body weight but take heart divas do your own research to find out how much you need.
What makes Whey Protein so Fabulous?
Picture this; you are in the gym working on your fitness and bringing’ the sexy back lifting weights, after your routine you have a delicious Whey Chocolate Protein Shake taste sooooooo good, you almost forget that it’s healthy.
Whey protein gets digested very quickly by the body which means it can be used faster than other forms of nutrition even other types of protein. In supplement form it’s much lower in calories of fat and carbs sooooooo that means if you take a swig after a weight bearing exercise; it will go straight into the fabulous sexy & lean sculpted muscles of yours!

Hey Divas!
Eating has gotten so complicated hasn’t it? Sometimes it can get frustrating when the racing thoughts come to mind of what should I eat how much of it, when should I eat? It’s pretty crazy how that like everybody is familiar with antioxidants, saturated fat, omega -3 fatty acid carbohydrates, gluten, probiotics,folic acid, stevia, simple carbs, complex carbs, the list is endless! In general we know it’s good for us and it ends there, most of us do not know why it’s good for us.
The crazy thing is that with ALL of this information we have it seems like food is not food anymore and somehow the enjoyment and satisfaction of eating has turned into counting carbs and nutritional facts more than the simple enjoyment of eating a good meal.
Having so much information can overwhelm a diva!
Feeling frustrated and confused in general about how to eat is what promoted me to deep dive and learn about nutrition and learn about how to eat properly and make better food choices.
I don’t want to have to rely on someone to tell me what to eat. I have worked with personal trainers who have given me a ” list ” to eat from and it did not work for me long-term because I did not understand food and how it worked in my body. I eventually got bored with my ” list ” and went back to my X Mr. McNasty…..he can sure sweet talk a diva during those late night foodie calls……. I know it’s complicated.
I’ve had to learn from my body and listen to her of what food works what food doesn’t. It’s not over night it takes time. What I have found out is that typically if I’m craving a certain food means that I am lacking that nutrient, for example milk; if a diva starts stalking and tip cows at night for milk ….then ummmm you may need calcium however calcium foods are typically higher in fat calories so experts recommend to take a calcium supplement to help curb the craving but still get the nutrition without the extra calories when trying to lose weight.
#Foodtip broccoli is a great source of calcium!
