A Macro Tracking Plan

Macros With Maria

Fat loss is no walk in the park! What you did in your 20's/30's no longer works. Chances are you've gained and lost the same 10-20 lbs. several times, eliminated food groups and tried fad diets, and did cardio until your knees just can't take it anymore. Let's face it, things are just different now. Our bodies are less stress resistant and less insulin sensitive causing an increased risk of diabetes making sustainable fat loss all that much more important. What most women misunderstand is that sustaining fat loss comes with balanced nutrition that you can maintain for a lifetime rather than severe restriction that leads to overeating on the weekends and that keeps you in the cycle of constant dieting. Macros With Maria is designed exclusively for women in their 50's/60's and beyond where you work up close and personal with me, Maria, to achieve lasting results while eating the food you love.

the VALUE

I work with you to create an individualized nutrition plan designed to meet your goals where you choose what you want to eat. That means that you can still eat the foods you love and enjoy events with family.

I then work with you to build healthy habits like walking and progressive strength training to support your goals and to create a healthy lifestyle that will help you to age with vitality and not frailty so that you can THRIVE!

What is macro counting? How will it help me achieve my goals?

Macro is short for macronutrient. Macronutrients are protein, carbs and fat that your body needs to function properly. Tracking macros helps by knowing how much of each macronutrient you are taking in each day. Your macro goal will be specific to you, your goal, and your weekly activity.
How do I know this will work for me?

If you are a midlife woman wanting to make a change with your health and fitness. You’ve raised a family and they are almost grown or you are now an empty nester and want to make changes to lose fat, take care of your health and live an active healthy lifestyle.
How long is the commitment?

Macros With Maria is a minimum of 16 weeks, so that we can work on fat loss and then go into a maintenance nutritional phase to learn how to keep off the fat forever. You can continue to go longer if you choose. I have a discount for those wanting to do a 6 month or 12 month time commitment. I also have a discount for referrals.
How will we communicate?

You can contact me daily through the Voxer app with any questions. We will have weekly live calls through Google Meet. We will have a shared tracker that you will fill in weekly and I will provide you with feedback and a plan for the following week.
Do you provide a meal plan?

I do not provide meal plans, because my goal is for you to learn how to handle situations in real life. I want to help you to learn how to make better choices for yourself so that you can lose fat and maintain that loss throughout the rest of your life. If I give you a meal plan, you will not learn how to fit the foods you love into your macro plan. This way you will be able to have a variety of foods at a variety of places.
How are you different from other coaches?

I believe that this process is a journey. It isn’t fat loss in 8 weeks and I disappear only for you to gain it all back again. It is my goal to empower you to live a healthy lifestyle so that you can improve your quality of life as you age. Many people just let life take its course and continue to gain weight, lose muscle, become sedentary and then become frail. My hope is that I can provide you with the tools you need to live your life with vitality so that you can travel and experience many things and enjoy your grandkids later in life. I will do that by taking you where you are and building on that, rather than upending your life with a total change all at once.
What is the process for getting started?

Fill out the application to apply. I will contact you within 48 hours to set up a consultation call so we can talk and see if we are a good fit to work together. If we are both ready to move forward, then you will fill out a comprehensive questionnaire. Once that is complete you will receive a welcome email with all kinds of information for getting started and my guides. I will create your customized macro nutrition plan, a call will be scheduled and we will begin your journey!
How much does Macros With Maria cost?

The cost of the program is $200 every 4 weeks for 16 weeks minimum. We can continue to work longer than that. I do have 6 month and 12-month agreements at a discounted price. I also offer rewards for referrals.
