Instant Loss - Conveniently Cook Your Way To Weight Loss

Encouragement. Motivation. Delicious Recipes.

The Difference Between My Books

What’s the difference between your books?

Questions I get asked on a regular basis are “If I can only buy one book which of your two cookbooks do you recommend?” “Do your books have meal plans?” “What is the difference between your books?” “Where can I buy your cookbooks?”, etc.

So, let me take a minute and provide you some insight on my two cookbooks.

The Difference Between My Books instantloss.com

Instant Loss Cookbook was my first book. It came out in October of 2018. It has 125 recipes for the Instant Pot, oven, and stove top. After reaching a peak weight of 260 pounds and spending a lifetime struggling with obesity, yo-yo dieting, autoimmune diseases, and chronic fatigue, the beginning of the book details my story and personal journey to lose 125 pounds in one year through diet alone.

There are 50 stunning recipe photographs and it has a three-week meal plan to help you get started.

Instant Loss Eat Real, Lose Weight is my second cookbook. It came out in December 2019. It’s a reflection of a lot of personal growth I’ve experienced in the last two years and all the feedback I received after the first book. There are 125 NEW recipes for the Instant Pot, Air Fryer, stove top, and oven.

The premise for this book was quick and easy so 90% of the recipes can be made in under 30 minutes. It has a focus on meal prep for busy families and substitutions for those with allergies.

There are 120 recipe photos and I dive in deep and focus on the emotional aspect of weight loss with an intuitive plan on how to reach and maintain your healthiest weight. With a three-week meal plan that has Sunday night meal prep, snacks, and a how-to portion guide, I try to give you all the tools you need for success!

There are suggestions on what to eat in every scenario! When you go out, when you’re busy, and when you flat out just don’t feel like cooking.

Both books are gluten-free and dairy optional but are also so very different. My suggestion is always to get BOTH if you can’t decide on just one. I am so blessed to call both of my book babies National Best Sellers! They both have hundreds of positive reviews on Amazon and even more success stories online!

If you’d like to grab a copy of either one of my books you can find both of them at your local bookstore or on Amazon. If you have any questions, leave them below, I’m happy to answer them. 💗

    I have the second book and love it. Does the first book have a meal plan in it as well? I do better with a meal plan and a layout of what a week would look like.

    Brittany:

    I have both of your books and enjoy your newsletter as well. I am just wondering what your educational background is as everything you do seems very professional and extremely well done. A retired teacher is asking!!

    Thank You!

      Hi Connie,
      The mini Instant Pot will be great! You can basically just cut all of the recipes in half and it will essentially serve you two to three times per recipe. Maybe don’t write follow the meal plan in my books because thats going to give you way too much food but instead with cutting the recipes in half you will be able to have left overs at least once maybe twice. Wishing you all the best!

I have literally been praying for someone to come into my life that could teach me or just help! I truly believe that you’re that person.

Your story and success is very motivational and inspiring. I am looking forward to following your motivation.

Your group has come at such a good time for me. I just want to say thanks! I might not have lost any weight (yet) but you ‘live’ in our house. Mini muffins, lentil chili, those almond strawberry cookies… When my husband tells me how delicious these new recipes are the response is always, “Britt’s recipe!” I talk about you like we just went out for coffee Hahaha. I appreciate all the work you’re putting into your website and the fb group. I feel better about myself just being a part of it.

I haven’t had a lot of words lately. My creativi I haven’t had a lot of words lately. My creativity is being used in other areas right now, I’m sure the words will find me again soon.⁣
⁣
In the meantime, for #transformationtuesday I want to honor the woman on the left who  took risks, followed her gut, and evolved through trial and fire into the woman on the right. ⁣
⁣
We are the same. ⁣
⁣
We are so very different.⁣
⁣
And I look forward to the day where the photo on the right becomes the photo on the left and I can step back and say, “look at all that we’ve become and have yet to become.”
My sister got married last weekend and I was final My sister got married last weekend and I was finally able to wear the dress I bought on clearance right before quarantine. 

It felt nice to get dressed up again. 💗
I posted this in stories last night but felt like I posted this in stories last night but felt like it should probably live on the feed too. ⁣
Growing up I thought the only reason someone would eat “healthy” was to lose weight. The way I thought about food evolved as an adult as I began to learn more about how important nutrition is.⁣
⁣
Eating well isn’t exclusive for weight loss. @syattfitness did a YouTube series where he ate a Big Mac every day for a month and lost 7 pounds because he stayed in a calorie deficit. You can literally eat anything and lose weight if the amount you’re eating keeps you in a deficit. But you cannot eat anything and be well.⁣
⁣
When I was a kid I would get these bumpy red spots on my upper arms, my doctor said it was keratosis pilaris, a common kid thing and that I would grow out of it. She wrote a prescription for a steroid cream and that was it.⁣
⁣
The steroid cream ran out but the bumps stayed. After my first pregnancy they began to spread, little bumps began to show up on my forearms, my upper thighs, then my bottom, and eventually my shins. I was super self conscious about it, I always wore sleeves and pants. Shorts were a major no-go, I don’t think I owned a single pair.⁣
⁣
Eventually I stopped hopping from fad diet to fad diet and I started to listen to my body and how it felt after I consumed certain foods. I began to experiment with food elimination and go-figure, not only did my over all health improve but things like those pesky bumps began to fade.⁣
⁣
My KP was a direct result of dietary choices I’d been making for years. These photos were captured only 30 days apart. As you can see my KP was aggravated after several months of indulgent eating. ⁣The photo on the right was taken after 30 days of eating mindfully and eliminating dairy and gluten again. 
⁣
Food matters. ⁣
⁣
I don’t care if you’re 500 pounds or 100– Our entire bodies are literally made up of and exist off what we consume, to think that the only thing food would affect is our weight is crazy. These bumps were a signal that my body was sending me to let me know that something wasn’t right, I spent 27 years of my life ignoring her. ⁣
⁣
It’s high time I choose to listen.

—> I finally created a LikeToKnowIt account. It’s an app where you can find clothes and products that people online wear. I’m always getting asked, about sunglasses, clothing, and products— I figured this might be easier. 🙂 You can find me over there @instantloss ⁣
⁣
I don’t know how I’d describe my fashion choices. Must be: comfortable, breathable, and cute. Probably a little boho, little surfer, little California girl. I like to show a little skin, so if my arms and legs are covered you’ll see a little tummy because I’m 31, not dead, and I told Brady that when I do die, he better bury me in a crop top. 💛✌️☀️⁣

Don’t mind the toothpaste splatter on my full length mirror, this is where my kids brush and floss 🤣. I lost 10.2 pounds during this months challenge. The scale doesn’t reflect one of those pounds because the day after my first weigh-in was the day that Brady and I decided to have our pizza veg day. 🎉 ⁣
⁣
Better than losing 10 pounds is the way I feel. I feel energized, excited to take on the day, less bloated and inflamed, slower to frustration, and I haven’t had an anxiety attack in 26 days! I am also much stronger! A hike that took Brady and I over an hour on day 1 took us 48 minutes yesterday and we still had energy for more!⁣

We bought a farmhouse! 💗⁣ ⁣ Brady and I hav We bought a farmhouse! 💗⁣
⁣
Brady and I have talked about buying a house in another state for years. Before Instant Loss we were landlords and we’ve always been fixers. ⁣
⁣
This farmhouse was built in the 1970’s. It had some major reno work done in 2010 but unfortunately is going to need some foundation help. We’ll need to move a few walls, remodel the bathrooms and kitchen, add a master bedroom (because it doesn’t have one)— it’s going to be a whole house makeover. We’re on the job, and we’ll be hanging out in Texas this Summer as we get it all started!⁣
⁣
I’ll post photos of the house soon. Should I post here or start a new Instagram for our projects?
