In a new post, she unveils some of her top transformation tips. "If you want to become unrecognizable (without stepping foot in the gym) become addicted to these 4 habits for the next 6 months," she writes in the post.

The first thing she suggests is amping up your protein intake. "Hitting 30 grams of protein at every meal, 3 meals a day. And the most important meal- that first one, you guessed it," she writes.

Her next tip involves food prep. "Spend 30 at some point in the week to prep easy protein to have on hand. It's just a fact, when you have healthy choices on hand you are more likely to succeed. Being hangry is real," she writes.

Next, get more steps in. "Up your step count by 2k steps a week until you are consistently hitting 8-10k steps a day. Walking is the most underrated form of exercise and can change your mood with just 10 minutes of movement," she writes.

She also recommends investing time in your mental health. "Find 30 minutes in the morning, midday or evening to spend in prayer / devotion / consuming a non fiction book. This has been a game changer in my own life in the past 3 months," she says.

In another post, she reveals three more key things you should do to get in shape, starting with eating "intentionally & purposefully," she writes. "There's a huge gap b/w eating "healthy" & eating intentionally. Your body needs adequate energy & balanced macros for hormone regulation, energy, blood sugar balance, cortisol regulation, to build muscle, & burn fat effectively. Macro tracking will help you dial in your nutrition. You can't manage what you don't measure."

If you want to up your game, "follow a specific training program," she says. "Random action yields random results. Quick & effective workouts that are intentional, strategic & implement progressive overload is the most efficient way to utilize your time. 30 min is all you need & at home workouts work incredibly well."

Don't underestimate the power of rest and recovery. "Sometimes we have to SLOW DOWN to get ahead. Allowing our bodies time to heal, recover, BUILD, & minimize stress gives our bodies a better chance at fat loss," she says.
