My name is Amanda Arroyo. I am a Nutrition and Wellness Consultant, certified by AFPA. I offer healthy meal plans and specifically help families with differing diets, whatever they may be. I have food allergies to soy, corn, and dairy. I'm mainly plant-based and the rest of my family is not. Everyone has their "different beet".

Had fun this morning at the Bubble Run! Now to prepare for the next one... #bubblerundallas2019 #bubblerun #goodcleanrun #5k #wannaberunners #forthefunofit #saturdaymorning #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

And it’s been a Monday! I had a rude awakening that I somewhat expected when I got on the scale this morning. Haven’t looked at that thing for a few months because of schedule/stress I knew there was only so much I could do. Found out that over a year I’ve gained 12 lbs. Not awful, and I can loose most of it reasonably by the end of the year. 🙌🏻 Who’s with me the last few months of the year to reach a goal? Anyone have a goal they’d like to share? . . . #goal #endofyear #monday #mondays #weightgain #health #healthy #healthgoal #healthygoals #reasonablegoals #ontrack #getbackontrack #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

Because if you haven't heard already or need a reminder... Mornings are for coffee and hydration. That's right. ☕⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Check out the blog adifferentbeet.com for the blog post. I've added the links to the studies, but here is the quick rundown: ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Caffeine is a diuretic which means that it activates the kidneys to release excess water and sodium from your system. However, when drinking caffeinated tea or coffee, you are having a small amount of caffeine with liquid to replace what's lost. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Studies showed that for even habitual coffee drinkers (3-6 cups a day) coffee does not have a dehydrating effect. They even said it could be added to your cups of liquid of the day for hydration.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Coffee or caffeinated tea is not to replace water, especially when REhydrating yourself, but it does not dehydrate. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So have a good humpday! Enjoy your coffee, and as the days continue to get more grey and shorter, don't worry about that extra cup or two. 😉⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #coffee #coffeedrinkers #caffeine #hydration #dehydration #cupofjoe #mornings #wednesdays #humpday #nutrition #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

Since fall is upon us and here in Texas it's finally cool enough to call it fall, I thought I'd share my chart for roasting vegetables. Although I roast my veggies all year long since it's my favorite way to cook them, it seems like people do it more in the fall and winter. So here you go! I also have some tips on roasting vegetables on the blog adifferentbeet.com ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #roasting #chart #cookingchart #cooking #vegetables #howto #fall #eatyourveggies #roastingsquash #roastedbutternutsquash #roastedcarrots #roastedgreenbeans #roastedbeets #roastedpotatoes #roastedveggiepan #nutrition #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

Lunch this week! Kale, toasted almonds, cranberries, low fat feta, and apples with a lemon/Dijon dressing. . . . Anyone else having a fall themed lunch? . . . #kale #salad #lunch #fall #fallsalad #cranberries #apples #feta #vegetarian #lowfat #greens #eatyourgreens #superfoods #salads #nutrition #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

So things have been crazy lately to say the least. My parents are remodeling the front part of their house so in between our full time lives this is what is happening. Oh and I chopped my hair! I’m posting this because with being busy, we forget to take care of ourselves and especially when it comes to diet. . . . My body reminded me yesterday that I do have food allergies, I do have to watch what I eat, and “every once in a while foods” really do need to be every once and a while and not everyday, which they became. So while I’m getting my diet back on track, I’ll be posting more and sharing what I’ll be making for myself as I get myself back to “normal”. . . . Anyone else have moments like this? What’s your go-to feel healthy food? . . . #health #healthy #busy #stressed #onthego #diet #getbackontrack #allergies #allergyproblems #foodallergies #thursdaytruth #guilty #takecareofyourself #nutrition #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition
