We were talking Burpees for Turkeys this morning on Good Morning Maine. 1 in 5 children in Maine lives with food insecurity meaning they lack sufficient nutrition to live a healthy lifestyle.
Join us for Burpees for Turkey this Saturday as we raise funds to support the Good Shepherd Food Bank in their effort to help end food insecurity in Maine. $5 buys you a burpee and through the Good Shepherd will feed a hungry child for an entire week.

She is climbing mountains in Australia with her daughter AND keeping up AND having fun. She is riding camels and having experiences of a lifetime. With a big huge SMILE on her face.  She is biking around Urulu National Park.
Diane is doing it - she is absolutely living her best life and we couldn't be any more proud of her. Thinking back to Diane's consultation a few years ago - she said she wanted to have the strength to carry her own luggage on the plane, to be able to hop on and off a tour bus, and to have the stamina to enjoy every single experience that comes her way. Diane, we are so incredibly proud of you. Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your health and fitness journey. Lots of love, Wilcox Wellness & Fitness INSPIRED to start getting fit to live your retirement years to the fullest? Schedule a call with us to see how we can help set you up for success! Click here!
I would like to propose a MINDSET Shift around the way that we think about the foods that nourish and heal our bodies. So often in the health and wellness industry, we are bombarded with messaging around what not to eat, what is not good for you, foods that are free of this and without that. Our goal is to shift your mindset around food and nutrition to focus more on the amazing benefits of the foods we use to fuel our bodies. We hope this little slideshow encourages you to focus more on the good and less on the bad and to get excited about experimenting with foods either in your own kitchen or through our NourishingFUEL meal prep program.
I hope this information is helpful. If you would like to learn more about NourishingFUEL (available in Bangor, Maine to WILCOX clients only) be sure to check out our new website, www.NourishingFUEL.com.

One of our major goals, when we opened Wilcox Wellness & Fitness, was to provide a place for trainers to be able to grow and develop careers that they felt really good about. Where they could do the job that they love, make a really incredible impact, and also have a life. With our Innovate for Maine Fellow, we made this recruitment video to explain how being a trainer at Wilcox Wellness & Fitness is different. And it gives me the chills. Hearing Katie explain in her words what she loves about her job is exactly the vision that Mike and I had from the very start. It took us a while to get here but I am so excited to be on this path with these people in these communities making this impact. We are so thankful for our community, for our team, and for the ability to positively impact so many lives. Thank you for your support, for your encouragement, and for believing in us.

In fact, according to data from 2013, the average child will eat about 3 cups of sugar on Halloween… That’s equal to 220 sugar packets! That’s over 16 times the recommended amount of sugar. GASP! OMG - our kids are going to be swinging from the rafters for weeks! Last year I learned about the ‘Switch Witch’ and it was a hit - our 5 year old, Hazen is already talking about the Switch Witch again for this year. Meet the Switch Witch. She even has her own poem.  As the poem suggests, the night after trick-or-treating, have your kids set their candy by the door and after they go to bed, you swap it out for a toy they want (Hazen knows EXACTLY what he wants), tickets to a movie or concert, or basically any non-candy item they’d like!
This means they get double the fun of Halloween – not only trick-or-treating, but also a surprise gift when they wake up the next morning. Then you can donate the Halloween candy to a local food pantry, homeless shelter, or the organization Soldier’s Angels (learn more here: Treats for Troops) and get a tax-refundable donation receipt. I hope this helps your family have a healthy (and happy!) Halloween. ENJOY! Paige REFERENCE: www.insider.com/how-much-sugar-the-average-kid-consumes-on-halloween-2017-1 WANT MORE OF THIS?

So many of our clients absolutely LOVE pizza and I have been on the hunt for a recipe that is healthy and delicious. This is a true winner in my book! For a long time, I have been experimenting with cauliflower crust, and while I do have a few cauliflower recipes that I love, they are incredibly time consuming. This recipe is super simple and you can see me whip it together super fast in the video below. AND - it has just a couple simple ingredients that you could have on hand at all times, so the next time you get that crazy craving - you are able to whip up something healthy vs calling the pizza delivery man. Super simple, right? And just a few ingredients: quinoa, an egg, salt, pepper, baking powder, and oregano. HEAVEN! Quiona is referred to as the 'mother of all grains' and for good reason - it has high in protein and is one of the very few plant foods that contain sufficient amounts of all nine essential amino acids. It is also high in fiber, magnesium, B vitamins, iron, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, vitamin E and various beneficial antioxidants. Read more here! Here is the recipe from Run Fast Eat Slow:  I hope you love it! Please let me know if you are going to give it a try for your next pizza night!
