Tracy Becomes a Nutritionist at Pure Austin Fitness

I just signed on as a nutritionist at Pure Austin Fitness, a premier gym with two locations in Austin, Texas.

Pure Austin has about five thousand members and offers tons of amenities. One of their locations boasts a rock climbing wall, an outdoor lap pool and a man-made lake in which Pure Austin members can go kayaking.

Here's a link to check out Pure Austin: Pure Austin Fitness

I'll be providing one-on-one nutrition coaching and nutrition clinics for groups and offering events and book signings. Most of my services will be open to non-gym members; however Pure Austin members will receive these services at a discounted rate.

Pure Austin will also carry my book, The Caveman Diet, in their fitness store.

I'm excited to become affiliated with such a professional, dynamic fitness facility and look forward to developing great nutrition and fitness programs with their staff.

I'll keep you posted about future events and services at Pure Austin Fitness that will be open to the public.

Three Quick, Healthy Breakfasts

Eating a filling breakfast gets your day off to a great start. If you're pressed for time in the morning -- as most of us are -- you may be tempted to eat something easy but not-too-healthy or to skip breakfast altogether.

In place of the typical carb-heavy American breakfast of sweetened cereal or a muffin, try one of the balanced options below.

The following breakfasts give you a great balance of protein, carbs and fat and are quick and easy.

1. Chicken Sausage and an Apple

Look for healthy chicken sausages made without nitrates at Whole Foods or other health food stores.

These large sausages are much lower in fat and higher in protein than traditional sausages and are made with natural ingredients. They come in a variety of flavors like Spicy Italian and Chicken Apple, so you can choose ones you like.

Get the pre-cooked kind, so you can just heat one up. Then have a piece of fruit afterwards, like an apple.

2. Egg Whites and Orange Juice

This is my standard breakfast:

One cup of egg whites cooked with one tablespoon of olive oil and seasonings. Afterwards, I drink a glass of orange juice, diluted one-to-one with water.

Diluting juice with water keeps your blood sugar from rising too fast and helps keep you full.

I enjoy salsa, basil, onions and tumeric in my egg whites. You could also have spinach, mushrooms, garlic or whatever you like.

3. Turkey Burger Lettuce Wrap and a Banana

If you want something you can eat on-the-go or at your desk while checking your morning email, try eating a leftover cooked turkey burger wrapped in lettuce.

Using a paper towel to hold your lettuce wrap will make it easier to eat. You can add mustard or another type of sauce to give your turkey burger flavor. I usually eat mine plain.

A banana makes a convenient finish to this on-the-go breakfast.
