In this episode of Get Your Fit Together, Ashley dives into the power of simple nutrition swaps that can help you make big changes without overwhelming yourself.

As a busy mum of two, Ashley knows how hard it can be to juggle meals for the family while staying on track with your health goals.

She shares her journey of overcoming the struggles with diet and how making small, sustainable changes led to big improvements in her body, mindset, and overall well-being.

Ashley discusses:

- How she’s found confidence in her body after weight loss, muscle toning, and mindset shifts.

- The importance of meal planning and prepping (without overcomplicating it).

- Easy nutrition swaps for protein-rich meals that won’t break the bank or take hours in the kitchen.

- The key to balancing protein with fiber, and why it's essential for overall gut health.

- How focusing on your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and maintenance calories can make a huge difference in how you approach your diet.

- Real-life examples of healthy swaps Ashley makes, including high-protein wraps, lean meats, and even delicious protein bars (yes, there’s a tasty one that’s just like Snickers!).

Ashley also touches on the importance of eating what you enjoy—without restriction—because food should fuel your body *and* bring joy. If you’ve been struggling with restrictive diets or feeling like you have to sacrifice flavor for health, this episode is for you!
