Protein-Packed Banana Bread Muffins

Big Thanks Posted From https://fitbottomedgirls.com/2018/07/protein-packed-banana-bread-muffins/

When it comes to meal planning, I am all about protein. I had bariatric surgery nearly 6 months ago, and all my meals and snacks are supposed to be “protein forward.” As long as I end up with 70ish grams of protein at the end of the day I’m golden. More specifically, a high-protein post-op diet helps you lose fat while holding onto muscle, and I have been doing a bang-up job. But when you physically can’t eat a whole lot, it can be difficult to pack in the protein, and endless protein shakes and bars get old really quickly. So…

Podcast Ep 91: Florida State Rep. Margaret Good

Big Thanks Posted From https://fitbottomedgirls.com/2018/07/podcast-ep-91-florida-state-rep-margaret-good/

Florida Democratic state Rep. Margaret Good became a huge media story on February 13, 2018, when she won her seat in a special election for District 72 (a district with a republican-leaning history). The Sarasota resident, who is also a Leader of the Florida Bar, took the big leap into politics after the seat unexpectedly became open — and the voter turnout was the highest for a special election in her district’s history. Those who know Margaret (including FBG Kristen) aren’t surprised by the rookie politician’s strong showing — this is a woman who sets a goal, then goes above and beyond…

What You May Get When You Nurture Your Child’s Voice

Big Thanks Posted From https://fitbottomedgirls.com/2018/07/what-you-may-get-when-you-nurture-your-childs-voice/

I’m big on adventuring with my children. I love adventuring in different ways, such as taking them on public transportation rides. I do my best parenting in public because I’m out of my comfort zone and my senses are altered by my surroundings. Being in public with my children may seem daunting to some — it did to me, too, at the beginning — but now I see a world of opportunities. There are many people to interact with, many people to avoid, many things to see, and much (if not all) of this is new to my children, so…

What It’s Really Like to Train for a CrossFit Competition

Big Thanks Posted From https://fitbottomedgirls.com/2018/07/what-its-really-like-to-train-for-a-crossfit-competition/

So I did a thing … well, two things actually. Let me back up a bit first. At the end of last year, I felt myself wanting a change. I mean, I really love running but I was feeling less and less inspired by it. Training for marathons had become a grind — one that I wasn’t enjoying the way I used to. It was time to change things up. So I stepped back from running for awhile and tried something completely different and way out of my comfort zone — CrossFit competitions. Prior to entering my first competition, I’d…
