Kathleen Tesori’s Personal Philosophy  

“Nutrition is the most important piece to the seeing and feeling results. When people contact me about how I achieved my physique the first thing I ask is to see a few days of their diet. A good rule of thumb is that 80% of your success will come from your diet (anything you put in your mouth) and only 20% will come from the work you do in the gym.

I am sure you have heard this before, but here are few simple rules I follow:

• Eat every 2.5 to 4 hours 
• Each meal should combine a protein, carbohydrate and a healthy fat. 
• It’s best to not eat a carbohydrate alone - make sure to combine it with a protein. 
• Ensure you are drinking plenty of water (3 liters a day is a good gauge).

Keep your meals fun—pick your favorite foods and try to find a healthy recipe. Whether it’s chips, waffles, cakes or puddings, there are plenty of members on BodySpace [or sites like cleaneatingmag.com] with great recipes to share.” - Kathleen Tesori (pictured)
