Additional Notes

There may be times when you need to adjust this meal plan to meet your individual needs or preferences. Here are a few options for making adjustments to the plan:

  • Increase or decrease the portion sizes: If you are feeling hungry or unsatisfied with the portion sizes provided, you can try increasing the size of your servings. On the other hand, if you find that the portions are too large or you are not losing weight at the desired rate, you can try decreasing the size of your servings.
  • Add or subtract snacks: If you need additional snack options to keep you satisfied between meals, you can try adding in additional healthy snacks such as a small handful of nuts or a piece of fruit. On the other hand, if you find that you are not hungry enough to finish all of the snacks provided, you can try skipping some of them or reducing their size.
  • Add or subtract ingredients: If you prefer a different type of protein or vegetable, you can try swapping out the ingredients listed in the meal plan for ones that you prefer. Just be sure to choose options that are consistent with the overall goal of the meal plan, which is to provide a balanced and nutritious diet that is low in calories and high in protein.

There are many ways to add flavour to your meals without adding calories. Some options include using herbs and spices, citrus juices, vinegar, and low-calorie condiments such as salsa or hot sauce. You can also try using flavourful ingredients like garlic, ginger, and onions to add depth and dimension to your meals.

It is generally recommended that adult women aim for at least 8 cups (64 ounces) of water per day to stay hydrated. This can vary based on factors such as age, size, activity level, and climate. If you are exercising or engaging in other activities that cause you to sweat heavily, you may need to increase your water intake to stay hydrated. It is a good idea to pay attention to your thirst levels and drink water throughout the day to meet your hydration needs.

I really enjoying all aspects of the gym including the trainers. In the last 3 years, I have had 3 trainers and they... all have been wonderful. With Jill leaving last month, my new trainer Catherine is also amazing. During my first session, she definitely challenged me and I enjoy her personality as well. Everyone at Vaughan's is very friendly and helpful. Even when I come to work out on my own, the staff are all helpful and I love the fact that it is such a small gym that during covid has made working out more enjoyable. Thank you Anne Whiteread more

Vaughan’s fitness is AMAZING! The staff are so friendly, professional and motivating. The facility is clean and... beautiful, also located on beautiful grounds. Jarid is a wonderful owner, he replies promptly to emails and is super excited to get clients what they want and need. I would absolutely never go another personal training facility because at Vaughan’s, I truly feel like I’m family. Everyone knows your name, they’re invested in your fitness goals and take an active role in learning more about you. This facility and it’s members and staff are legit. They’re amazing and I would HIGHLY recommend Vaughan’s fitness to anyone looking to get in shape and achieve their fitness goals. I’ve trained with Allysia, Alyssa, Alex and Ally and they’re all amazing! It’s also a super non-threatening environment. I’ve found with going to other gyms before it can be super intimidating when you don’t know all the machines are what exercises to do, but here they explain everything, it’s non-judgemental, and everyone roots for you. 10/10 would recommend.read more

A welcoming, professionally developed and evidently knowledgeable environment was the initial impression I observed... from Vaughan’s Fitness. One year later, I can confidently state that anyone’s goals are achievable with the dedication and support offered at Vaughan’s Fitness. In fact, you’ll enjoy surpassing them. Previously I struggle with appropriate workouts, nutritional guidance, and minor injuries. Initially I debated the decision of inquiring into personal trainers but grateful I chose to. Over the last year, Jarid has been genuinely accommodating to my chaotic schedule. Allowing me the opportunity of working parallel with several trainers who are immensely supportive. They are as interested in your wellbeing and goals as they are fun, motivating and personable.read more

If you’re like me you have been humming and hawing about doing this for a long time. You are looking at websites,... getting all ready to go for it only to say to yourself “maybe later”. I have done the big gym thing before and it’s not my cup of tea, main reasons being that I can never decide what equipment I should use or exercises to do, what areas I need to focus on and most importantly how to perform every exercise properly as to not injure myself. I’m one that needs to just show up to the gym, be told what exercises I am doing and be guided through those exercises in a manner that I won’t injure myself, but also with the intent to achieve the greatest result. I have now been a member at Vaughan’s for over a year and can’t say enough about it. First off this testimonial is something I have wanted to do for a long time. I work out three times per week and have worked with the same two trainers the entire time, Alyssa and Jazmin. I have also on occasion had the fortune of working with some of the other trainers, while mine were on holidays. Marissa, Allyshia, Julianne and Tyler have all been fabulous and a pleasure to work with. This gym is nothing like the ‘big box chain style gyms’. There is no need to feel intimidated and there is every age and body type working out here. If however, you are looking for yoga or spin classes this is not the gym for you. You get to know everyone from the trainers along with many of the other members. It is without a doubt something I look forward to doing each and every time and that’s something I never thought I would hear myself say as I have always hated the gymJarid Vaughn has created an incredible environment here and joining his gym is one of the best things I have ever done. I turned 50 when I first joined and I while I eat fairly well, I was a bit heavier than I wanted to be, had aches and pains here and there and just generally wanted to feel healthier and feel better about myself. I have achieved all that and then some. I never have to weigh myself because I can see the changes. I can easily say that I am in the best physical shape of my life and while I may still have the odd ache and pain (I am over 50 after all), so many of the other issues I was having for years have all disappeared. My wife has now joined Vaugn’s one day per week and she too is really enjoying it. If you are hesitating on whether or not to join, I hope I have at least convinced you to contact Jarid and set up a consultation. Then you can stop doing your endless research on the internet and making excuses. Rob Koremanread more

If you have any sort of fitness goals, go to Vaughan’s Fitness. The first time I trained with Vaughan’s I needed to get... core strength to fix a back injury, and the second time was to tone up and develop over all body strength. I had very noticeable results after only a couple weeks of training and stayed training for 6+ months because I got so much out of it. My back pain has never returned and am now in great shape. The team at Vaughan’s are very knowledgeable and skilled.I learned so much about effective exercises with proper form. The sessions are tailored to your personal goals and are broken up between various types of exercises which makes each session new, interesting, and enjoyable. I cannot recommend Vaughan’s enough. They are awesome and I am so grateful for them.read more
