Helping women break free from the yo-yo diet cycle to achieve health and fitness goals without sacrificing foods you love.
Welcome! I'm Gina.

My Mission
I’m here to empower women to achieve their health and fitness goals in a way that is simple, sustainable and enjoyable. It cannot be just about the way you look, it must be about the way you feel!
I believe a healthy lifestyle should never mean sacrificing the joy of eating. Together, we will develop tailored, lifelong nutrition plan & habits that fit your unique needs, preferences, and lifestyle to help you uncover the best version of yourself. I am so excited to be your partner in your journey towards a healthier, happier you.
I can’t wait to help YOU find YOUR HEALTHY GLOW!
Follow Me on
No bread. No pasta. No dessert. Basically no fun.
These are the rules you need to lose weight?
All that excitement you had turns into frustration because, deep down, you know how this ends.
You’ll follow the rules for a while, but eventually, the cravings win.
You “give in,” feel like you failed (again), and wonder why you can never stick to it.
But the problem isn’t you. It’s the restrictive diets that make weight loss feel like a punishment.
I have good news...there’s a better way—one where you can eat the foods you love while fueling your body and making real progress.
Macros give you that freedom. No more guilt, no more starting over, just learning how to make it all work for you.
Because let's be real- if losing weight means giving up everything that makes food enjoyable… it’s not a diet worth doing.
Drop your favorite food emoji in the comments if you agree. 🌮🍦🍕🍫

Your body isn't broken....
It just adapted.
But the good news is you're not stuck forever!
A reverse diet allows your metabolism to thrive again so you can continue making progress, without having to cut calories even more.

I didn’t think it was possible to boost metabolism, let alone boost it in my late 30s.
I thought if anything my metabolism would slow down as I got older and I would just have to compensate by eating less.
Makes sense right?
But turns out, metabolism does not actually slow down until we are in our 60s and it was actually my habits.
Eating too little was causing my metabolism to down-regulate & adapt to a smaller calorie intake.
Only focusing on high intensity cardio was putting too much stress on my body, elevating cortisol levels, and causing me to lose muscle mass. (and muscle is needed
Once I started focusing more on:
Strength training & daily movement > cardio
Increasing calories & protein> 1200 calorie diets
I was finally supporting muscle growth, energy levels, & hormones crucial for long-term metabolic health.
If you’re tired of feeling like your metabolism is working against you, I can help you turn it around. Let’s chat—DM me ‘METABOLISM’ to get started!

The way you think about your weight loss journey matters more than you realize!
You don't have to be perfect to make progress, this only causes you to stay stuck by constantly quitting & starting over.
But when you focus on consistency over perfection, you build habits and results that last long-term. 🚶♀️🏋️♀️🛌🌮🥦🍨

I was so desperate to lose weight that I was trying everything.
I kept thinking maybe this will finally be the diet that works for me.
But it never was.
These diets all worked until they stopped working.
They were all about strict rules, restrictions, & cutting things out and I just couldn’t stick to them long-term.
They didn’t teach me anything about nutrition so that I could make lasting, realistic changes that fit my life. (a life where I could enjoy social events, holidays, & my favorite foods without ruining my diet)
I would love to know which of these diets you’ve tried. Let me know in the comments!

Totally worth it!
Now that I'm a mom, working out at home is much easier to fit into my schedule than going to the gym so it was time for a new addition to the home gym.
I'm someone who always feels guilty when it comes to spending money, but then I realized spending money on things that support health—whether it’s a gym membership, workout equipment, quality food, or coaching—is so worth it.
It’s easy to justify spending money on other people or things that feel “necessary,” but taking care of yourself is just as important.
Prioritizing your health isn’t a luxury—it’s an investment that pays off in energy, confidence, and longevity. 🎉☺️💪
Super excited to level up my fitness journey!

The scale can be so discouraging...
If you've ever stepped on the scale only to be completely discouraged, I totally get it because I have been there.
But the scale does not define your progress and the scale increases for so many reasons.
Focus on non-scale victories instead, including how you feel because that is worth celebrating 🎉
Don't forget to save this to refer back to the next time you feel frustrated by the scale.

Imagine this.. It’s the birthday of a family member… there’s a beautiful cake and all you can think about is the calories….
As the cake is being sliced and the plates passed around, the thoughts rush in.
"I can’t eat this. I’ll undo all the progress I’ve made on my diet."
"I’ll just have a small piece? No, that’ll turn into a complete binge."
"Everyone else is enjoying their cake carefree, why can't I?"
You push the plate away, pretending you don’t want it, because you’re trying to be ‘good.’
But instead of feeling proud, you feel left out, frustrated, and angry.
This used to be me.
But tracking macros changed everything for me, because there are no foods that are “off-limits.”
Now I can enjoy the piece of cake while celebrating & making memories with family, without fear of losing all my progress.
And I’m not alone. So many of my clients once felt the same way, until I taught them how to navigate social events without guilt—because they know how to balance their nutrition in a way that works for real life.
If you’ve ever felt this way,I promise you—you don’t have to choose between your health & fitness goals and making memories with your family. Comment "BIRTHDAY” below to book a free consult call.

This mistake was the hardest to overcome…
I used to think that losing weight meant giving up all the foods I loved. And honestly? That thought alone made me feel like I’d never be able to reach my goals.
But learning how to track macros changed everything. I realized I could still enjoy my favorite foods in moderation while making progress—and that’s exactly what I teach my clients in my 1:1 coaching program.
Because you don’t have to choose between food and results. You just need the right strategy.
If you're ready to lose weight without restriction, drop a "BALANCE" in the comments. 🍦🍪🍕

I tried everything: Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, Atkins, Slim Fast, Special K, Weight Watchers, Beachbody portion fix… even magazine diets like “Flat Belly Diet” and “Lose 10 lbs in 30 Days.”
Every plan was too restrictive, left me hungry, and taught me nothing about nutrition.
This may sound familiar…
For years, I struggled with my weight. In high school, I started going to the gym, focusing only on cardio. I kept it up through college, but no matter how long or intense my workouts were, nothing changed. I blamed my genetics and metabolism, thinking I’d never feel good in my skin.
I saw diet ads promising quick weight loss and realized my workouts weren’t enough—I needed to change my nutrition.
But with these diets, anytime I ate something “bad” or “off-limits,” I’d spiral and tell myself, I’ll just start over on Monday, which caused me to keep losing & gaining the same 15-20 pounds.
In 2022, I finally hired a macros coach. I wanted to eat foods that I love and still reach my goals—I didn’t believe it at first, but figured I had nothing to lose.
Let me tell you, it was the best decision I ever made.
Now as a woman over 35, I learned that everything I had been doing—skipping meals, cutting out foods I loved, undereating, endless cardio—was doing more harm than good for my metabolism.
With macros, I’m eating more than I ever have, without worrying about losing my progress or results. Paired with strength training and simple habits, my body transformed, and I felt better in my late 30s than I ever did in my 20s.
Now I get to help other women break the yo-yo diet cycle, show them a sustainable way to lose weight, and keep it off. In 2023, I became a Certified Macros Coach & Personal Trainer and officially started Healthy Glow with Gina. My mission is to help women achieve their health & fitness goals in a way that is simple, sustainable, and enjoyable so they can feel their best from the inside out.

Cardio is not the best workout for weight loss.
While some cardio is great for heart health, too much of it was making me more tired & hungry, causing me to overeat.
I also didn't know at the time that too much high intensity cardio is a huge stress on the body and can actually make weight loss harder.
Strength training has helped me improve my body composition (less fat/more muscle), feel stronger, and boosted my metabolism allowing me to eat more food, which was a huge win for me as a foodie!
Even just 2 strength training workouts a week is enough to see a huge difference!
Is there anything currently holding you back from strength training? Let me know in the comments!

I thought my slow metabolism was to blame but turns out it was my habits.
Everything changed when I started focusing on:
1️⃣Prioritizing strength training over cardio-
Loss of muscle mass is one of the biggest reasons metabolism slows as we get older. Lifting weights helped me build muscle, which boosts metabolism by burning more calories at rest.
Cardio is great for heart health but too much was putting extra stress on my body, making fat loss harder. Now I mainly focus on getting in steps.
2️⃣Eating at least 3 balanced meals, including breakfast, prioritizing protein, and spending time outside of a diet provided me with the optimal nutrition needed for building muscle.
3️⃣Eating foods I love, instead of restricting, made it much more like a lifestyle that I was able to stick to long-term, rather than a short term fix that always caused me to end up in a yo-yo diet cycle.
If you’re 35+ and struggling to lose weight, I've been there and would love to help! DM me your biggest question or struggle and let's figure this out together!

Anyone else used to believe this?!
For the longest time, I thought my workout was enough movement and as long as I got my workout in, it wouldn't matter if I spent the rest of the day sitting.
Turns out it doesn't quite work that way.
Your workout is important, but what you do outside of your workout matters too & plays a huge role in metabolism & overall health.
Below are a few ways to increase daily movement outside of your workout:
-Parking further away
-Taking the stairs over the elevator
-Household Chores
-Fidgeting
-Playing with your pets and/or kids
-Standing instead of sitting
-Biking instead of driving
-Walking breaks between tasks
-Dance party

Eating as little as possible is not an effective strategy for weight loss.
I used to think eating less would help me save calories and lose weight faster.
But that approach always backfired because I would end up so hungry that I would overeat, ending up in binge & restrict cycle.
Eating more helped to keep me fueled throughout the day which made it a lot easier to stay within my nutrition targets and finally see weight loss.
Can you relate? Let me know in the comments👇

If only I knew then what I know now, I would have saved myself from years of stress, frustration, and feeling like I'd never lose the excess weight—when all I really needed was balance, not restriction.
Once I finally figured this out, I knew I had to help other women break free from the yo-yo dieting cycle, too.

I've made a lot of mistakes in my weight loss journey that made me feel stuck.
That is why I decided to create a series to help other women avoid those same mistakes so you can start seeing progress rather than spinning your wheels for years and years like I did.
Mistake #1: You can't outexercise a bad diet.
I thought exercise alone was enough to see progress, but nutrition is key.
If you have any questions regarding which nutrition plan is best for your goals, feel free to send me a DM. I'd love to help!

Anyone else? 🤣🤷
I couldn't wait to have my baby girl join me on walks, but turns out she hates the stroller and screams & cries hysterically if she's awake.
Currently I can only get a short walk in with her if she's napping but the second she wakes up she starts to cry.
Hoping she outgrows this phase so we can enjoy walks together in the near future 🤞

Here's to not chasing a number on the scale- but rather focusing on rebuilding strength, fueling my body, and improving body composition.
I'm currently about 15 pounds above where I was pre-pregnancy and am using all of the knowledge I've gained through my initial weight loss journey, along with everything I've learned through my certifications, to do things right in order to achieve my goals.
My goal is to be strong, fit, and healthy and muscle plays a huge role in achieving that goal. That is why rebuilding the muscle and strength I lost is my biggest priority, rather than just seeing the number on the scale go down.

Macros are not just another quick fix, short term diet for weight loss.
They are a tool that teaches you how to eat the proper portion of protein, fats, and carbs for your body, lifestyle, and goals.
Macros can be used to help achieve your weight loss goals by reducing body fat, but they also can be used to maintain your results, build muscle, improve energy levels and your relationship with food, and so much more!
They set you up with a long term sustainable nutrition plan so you can eat the foods you love while enjoying your life!

Macros can be used to help achieve your weight loss goals by reducing body fat, but they also can be used to maintain your results, build muscle, improve energy levels and your relationship with food, and so much more!
They set you up with a long term sustainable nutrition plan so you can eat the foods you love while enjoying your life!

The best thing I ever did was quit dieting.
Diets were too restrictive, requiring me to give up foods I love, which was not sustainable for me long-term.
I thought giving up these foods was necessary for weight loss.
When I finally learned about flexible dieting through tracking macros, I realized I could still enjoy the foods I love while making progress toward my weight loss goals.
It was never about giving up certain foods, but rather eating the appropriate amount of calories & macros for my body & lifestyle that allowed me to lose fat and keep it off.
This is the exact approach I will use again when I am ready to lose the baby weight postpartum.
I'm so grateful to have discovered macros because I am a foodie at heart so being able to enjoy food I love while still hitting my goals makes the process so much easier.

Postpartum life is a whole new world...
As a nutrition coach and new mom, I’m leaning into the habits I can control during this time of rest and recovery.
During the first 6 weeks postpartum, I am not able to strength train, meet my step goal of at least 8000 steps, and getting at least 7 hours of sleep is not happening with a newborn.
But I can prioritize my health through my nutrition by choosing foods that help it recover.
My focus? Protein and nutrient-dense foods.
1️⃣Protein is essential for healing and recovery. After delivery, your body is working overtime to repair and rebuild tissue. It also helps keep me full and satisfied during this busy time when hunger can hit hard as I’m busy caring for my little one.
Plus, since I can’t strength train right now, protein is key for preserving as much muscle mass as possible which is so important for overall health. I am currently eating 1g of protein per pound of body weight.
2️⃣Nutrient-dense whole foods help provide me with the vitamins and minerals needed during this time of recovery. It also provides me with the energy needed to power through the day caring for my baby girl during this time of sleep deprivation. I do this by focusing on balanced meals of protein, complex carbs, and healthy fats (macronutrients).
Remember even small habits can have a big impact and you just have to focus on what you can do, rather than doing nothing at all. ❤️

I get it, mama...
Some days it feels like there’s no time to stop. The baby needs you, there’s a million things to do, and eating feels like just one more thing on the list.
Skipping meals might seem like the quickest solution to keep up with it all.
But here’s the truth: taking a few minutes to eat isn’t just important—it’s essential.
It’s how you give your body the energy it needs to recover, keep going, and show up for your little one.
It doesn’t have to be complicated. A quick sandwich, a salad, or a smoothie can provide you with the nutrients needed to keep you fueled.
Taking care of yourself postpartum isn’t optional—it’s how you show up as your best self for your baby. ❤️
You’re doing an amazing job, mama—just don’t forget to feed you, too!

Here’s the truth👇
Long term results don’t come from completely overhauling your lifestyle all at once or extreme measures.
You don't have to workout every day for hours, cut out foods you love, only drink juice to detox, do multiple workouts a day, skip social events with friends, or starve yourself on minimal calories in order to reach your health & fitness goals.
These actions are not sustainable so it's no wonder most people quit so soon (including me 🙋during my own weight loss journey).
Long term changes come from small, basic changes to your lifestyle habits that you can actually stick to—like drinking more water, eating more protein, increasing movement, getting enough sleep, and a balanced nutrition approach that doesn't restrict foods.
These lifestyle habits need to be customized for your lifestyle in order to be sustainable so that you can do this for life and don't have to keep starting the new year starting over again.
Don’t let January 10 be the end of your goals—let it be the day you reevaluate, simplify your plan, and start building a lifestyle that works for you long-term.
What’s one small habit you’re focusing on this year? Share below—I’d love to cheer you on!
And of course if you need support & accountability in building these habits, send me a DM and let's chat 😊
