#228: The road to our photo shoot Part 1 with Craig McDonald
Have you ever thought about doing a photoshoot to show off your progress? We definitely have… And now we’re doing one!
First off, it feels GOOD to have a goal to work toward, so we are really excited about this.
But how are we preparing for this photoshoot? Well, this breakdown is coming out in two parts. This first part focuses on our nutrition and what we will both be doing to get ready for this in terms of our food, meals, calories, and macros.
Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield. Each month I choose someone who has shared and they get a tub of Saturée Premium Collagen valued at $79.
