Wellness isn’t just about what we do at the gym. It’s about how we fuel, how we hydrate, how we prepare—and how we feel while doing it all. For me, keeping consistent with movement means having easy, protein-rich meals ready to go and feeling comfortable in my skin from morning lifts to post-grocery errands.
That’s why I love sharing my real-life routines: simple, gluten-free meals that you can prep ahead and the Losano staples that keep me grounded, confident, and effortlessly dressed for the flow of the day.
Here’s what I reach for in my kitchen—and my closet—when I’m fueling up, working out, and getting things done.

Pre-Workout: High-Protein Breakfasts I Always Come Back To
Eating before a workout is about balance. I need a high-protein pre-workout meal that feels light but gives me long-lasting energy— especially on days packed with meetings, movement, and life in between.
1. Greek Yogurt Parfait with All the Good Stuff
It’s a classic for a reason. I layer Greek yogurt with gluten-free granola (I like it low sugar, high crunch), a mix of berries, and peanut butter or hemp seeds for healthy fats. I top with a drizzle of honey. This combo keeps my energy up through morning workouts and into the early afternoon.
Meal Prep Tip: I prep a few mason jars on Sunday night—just leave the granola on the side so it stays crispy.
What I’m Wearing: Usually the Essential Pocket Legging and Keep You Cool Tank—but if it’s a chilly morning, I throw on the Tenderblend Malibu Hoodie . It’s that perfect cozy-but-polished top that works from the kitchen to the gym and back.
2. Brownie Batter Smoothie (Yes, It’s as Good as It Sounds)
I’m obsessed with the FlavCity protein powders—especially the brownie batter flavor. I blend it with milk, half a frozen banana, and chia seeds or collagen for an added protein punch. It tastes like dessert, fuels like a pro.
Prep Ahead: I make freezer bags with banana, chia, and powder ready to blend. No thinking required when I’m still waking up.

Post-Workout: Easy Bowls and Gluten-Free Wraps
After a workout, I’m usually jumping into emails or errands, so I want something fast, satisfying, and balanced with protein, fiber, and good fats. These go-to post-workout meals never let me down when I need quick, nourishing fuel.
1. Roasted Veggie Power Bowls
I’ll roast a batch of sweet potatoes, zucchini, peppers, and Brussels sprouts over the weekend. Then all I have to do is toss them with a protein—like tofu, lentils, or hard-boiled eggs—and add something creamy like tahini or hummus.
Time-Saving Tip: Roast everything on one sheet pan. Store veggies and pre-cooked quinoa in glass containers so I can build bowls in under five minutes.
What I’m Wearing: Usually I stay in my Essential Pocket Leggings (because why would I take them off?) and throw on the Serene Rib Tank or a Serene Rib Long Sleeve Top if I’m heading out. It’s that elevated, put-together feel without changing into “real clothes.”
2. Lettuce Wraps with Leftover Protein
My husband and I are both gluten-free, so I always have a quick gluten-free meal on deck. These are lifesavers when I need to eat fast. I wrap leftover grilled tofu or tuna salad in butter lettuce or collard greens with shredded carrots, avocado, and a drizzle of tahini-lemon dressing. So simple, so good.
Prep Trick: Keep chopped veggies in jars of water in the fridge. They stay crisp and ready for wraps, snacks, or salads.

Hydration Is Half the Battle
We talk a lot about food, but honestly? Hydration is the unsung hero of my wellness routine. Whether it’s pre-workout or recovery, I always have water nearby—and I make it work harder for me.
Daily Hydration Go-To’s:
•. Herbal Tea in the morning
• Electrolyte packets by FlavCity during or after intense workouts
Simple Habit: Keep a glass pitcher in the fridge with lemon and mint water. It helps me drink more throughout the day without thinking about it.

How I Make Meal Prep Work (Without Losing My Sunday)
I believe in keeping meal prep realistic. You don’t need to overhaul your kitchen to feel organized—just a few intentional habits go a long way.
• Batch roast your veggies: One tray, 30 minutes, meals for days.
• Double your proteins at dinner: Grilling salmon? Make extra.
• Pre-chop or spiralize: Carrots, cucumbers, and even zucchini noodles stay fresh for days when prepped right.
• Use clear containers: You see what you have, and you use it.
And while I prep, you better believe I’m doing it in Losano—usually in my Renew Rib Bra, Serene Rib Relaxed Pant, and the Montetey Hoodie. It’s soft enough for comfort, sleek enough that I can step out for a coffee run without changing a thing.

The Losano Lens: Dressing for Wellness and Real Life
At Losano, we talk a lot about clothing that moves with your life—and that philosophy starts in your everyday routines. Whether I’m chopping veggies, running errands, or heading to the gym, I want to feel like myself: put together, comfortable, and aligned with my values.
That’s what our pieces are designed for—function you can trust, sustainability you feel good about, and style that doesn’t quit.
Favorite combos for busy days:
• V-Neck Bra & Mesh Panel Legging + a trench coat = errand ready
• Organic Thermal Relaxed Cardigan over my workout set = work-from-home or grocery-store chic
• race Top + Grace Pant = soft enough to lounge, polished enough to Zoom

Final Thought: Let Your Habits Support You
Meal prep isn’t about being perfect. It’s about making your day feel easier. Prepping nourishing food, staying hydrated, and wearing clothes that support how you want to feel—it’s all part of showing up for yourself.
Whether you’re working out, winding down, or making a smoothie with your hair in a bun, you deserve to feel aligned and supported.
Here’s to food that fuels, clothes that move with you, and routines that leave room for joy.
