Achieve lasting health—without cutting calories or following dieting “rules”!

Instead of obsessing about the quantity of food you eat, shift your focus to the quality, say Noelle Tarr and Stefani Ruper. The popular hosts of the Well-Fed Women podcast want you to make sure you’re getting enough food so that your body has the fuel and nourishment it needs to support a healthy, long, and energetic life.

Noelle and Stefani know firsthand about the ups and downs of dieting. Like many people, they have struggled with confusing and frustrating health issues such as anxiety, infertility, and hormonal imbalance—but when they discovered that the secret to improving wellness was actually more food, they ditched the calorie counters and gave their bodies the nourishment they needed to heal. In the Coconuts and Kettlebells program, you’ll eat at least 2,000 calories a day—setting a minimum intake of fat, protein, and carbohydrates to ensure that your diet is full of nutrients. Noelle and Stefani identify the Big Four foods that cause the most health problems—grains, dairy, vegetable oils, and refined sugar. While many diets require you to eliminate these foods entirely, Coconuts and Kettlebells provides an easy-to-follow step-by-step system to test these foods and determine which you need to cut back on to feel better—and which you can eat without restrictions.

To help you discover how your body responds to the Big Four, you’ll choose from two simple 4-week meal plans: one for Butter Lovers, people who tend to feel more satisfied eating higher ratios of fats, and one for Bread Lovers, people who tend to feel more satisfied eating higher ratios of carbs. Each meal plan comes with weekly shopping lists and instructions on how to batch cook, meal prep, and stock the pantry. In addition, you get more than 75 simple and delicious real food recipes, including:

• Kale and Bacon Breakfast Skillet • Raspberry-Coconut Smoothie Bowl  • Thai Coconut Curry Shrimp • Apple-Chicken Skillet • Moroccan Lamb Meatballs • Grilled Balsamic Flank Steak • Chocolate-Cherry Energy Bites • Lemon-Raspberry Mini Cheesecakes

To go along with the meal plans, you’ll find three 4-week fitness plans tailored to beginner, intermediate, and advanced experience levels. Best of all, the workouts can be done anywhere—at your home or on the road—and take no more than 30 minutes each.

A comprehensive whole-body program, Coconuts and Kettlebells provides the knowledge and tools you need to be healthy inside and out.

      Tarr and Ruper, hosts of the Well-Fed Women podcast, propose a four-week plan for good health for women in this uneven guide. Their plan focuses on food quality rather than quantity, espouses a 2,000 calorie minimum instead of the FDA-recommended 2,000 calories per day maximum, and implements a simple, kettle bell–centric exercise plan. The duo offer suggestions for satiating cravings for carbs and fats, as well as managing the four inflammatory foods (grains, dairy, oils, and refined sugar) that can impede weight loss. Over the course of four weeks, dieters follow one of two Paleo-inspired plans, according to whether they identify as fat or carb lovers. Meal plans for each type are included, with such doable recipes as an apple, bacon, and sweet potato hash; coconut chai latte; DIY bone broth; and a bison chili. The exercise component of the plan can easily be performed at home, requiring a little space and a set of kettlebells; detailed photos and instructions ensure proper form. Although the authors spend considerable time making their nutritional and health claims, they aren’t backed by scientific sources. Still, readers interested in improving their health could do worse than following this health-conscious four-week program.
