Bodies change a lot through life - especially for

Bodies change a lot through life - especially for moms. It's okay if you're not at a place where you love how your body looks - you don't have to be. But work to love yourself. This is so powerful, not just in your life, but for your children to see, too.❤

STOP TELLING MOMS HOW THEY SHOULD DEFINE THEIR SEL

STOP TELLING MOMS HOW THEY SHOULD DEFINE THEIR SELF-CARE.

There've been some posts and videos going around saying things like "stop telling moms taking a bath is self care!" or "getting enough sleep is not self care!"

Except - it is. The most basic form of self-care is caring for one's self.

Just as me giving my child a bath, giving them a balanced meal, and tucking them into bed (even when they don't want to!) are ways that I care for my children, I can care for myself in the exact same ways, too.

And realistically? A lot of moms aren't even doing (or have the time or privilege to do) the basics. There are some seasons of life where basic self-care IS a lofty goal (see: newborn days, any age where a child is waking you up during the night, moms with medical issues, moms of children with medical issues, moms working two or three jobs to keep a roof over her kids' heads, and so many more completely valid scenarios).

Does self-care stop at meeting basic human needs? No. If you have the desire and ability to do more, go for it! You do you mama, enjoy the heck out of your self-care time, however that looks for you!

BUT - stop telling other moms how to define their own self-care.

Mama, YOU get to decide what's self-care to YOU in the season you're in right now.

You didn't become a mom to miss out on family mome

You didn't become a mom to miss out on family moments. Especially because a diet says so.

Eat the pizza.

You don't need to eat before you go to thwart your appetite, or just order a side salad, or pick off the cheese and toppings, or anything else.

Eat the pizza.

If you like pizza, it can fit into both an overall balanced diet and a balanced meal.

And you know what can cultivate a better relationship with food for both you and your kids?

Eating the pizza.

Showing yourself and your family that food is food, sure food is fuel, but it can also be more - including enjoyable, a part of traditions, and a means to connect and make memories.

Eat the pizza.

Do you have any fun, food traditions in your family?

Save this one for some easy, balanced snacks!🙌

Save this one for some easy, balanced snacks!🙌

YES it's fine to snack - for you and your kids! Just remember my two simple snack time tips for a more satisfying snack (you know, so your kids don't just eat a handful of goldfish and whine that they're still hungry in 15 minutes🙄):

1. Include FIBER and PROTEIN.
2. Make it something you ENJOY!

Fiber and protein can help a snack be more filling and do exactly what it's supposed to - keep your energy up and prevent you from getting hangry before the next meal. And enjoying your snack always makes it more satisfying!

What are some of your favorite snacks?

Hi! 👀Notice anything different around here?👀

Hi! 👀Notice anything different around here?👀

That's right - I'm now @nutritionist.for.moms!!
!

For those who don't know me, I'm Lindsey, I'm a mom of two toddlers, and I'm a dietitian passionate about all things BALANCE - no need for extreme or restrictive diets around here!

I'm also equally passionate about moms and motherhood. Because yes, while moms don't have the monopoly on busy and tired, motherhood absolutely brings some unique challenges.

You'll still see the same balanced nutrition content here that you know and love, but with more strategies specific to the challenges moms face, so you can better balance health and motherhood.

I'll be chatting more about the change in my stories today, so if you have any questions, drop them in the comments below or DM me!

Thank you so much for being part of this community!❤
