Are you ready to get off the diet rollercoaster and start building a healthier lifestyle?
Maybe you want to fuel your body in a way to:
- reach and maintain a healthy weight

- increase your energy level
- reduce mood swings
- sleep better at night

At Macro Minded Life, we are about much more than merely counting calories and “macros.” Although learning about health and how macros (protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates) play a major part in reaching and maintaining your goals is important, we focus on the “Macro” or big picture approach to life: using healthy habits and whole food nutrition to optimize your progress. Focusing on all areas of healthy lifestyle will help fill gaps that maybe you have been filling with unhealthy habits such as mindless eating, comfort foods, emotional eating, etc.
Creating your unique health blueprint starts with building a foundation by writing specific goals that will give you the vision and focus you need to reach and maintain your healthy lifestyle. Together, we will create healthy habits to help you reach them. As roadblocks and obstacles come along, we are here to help you create solutions and overcome them.
This is not another diet to lose weight only to gain it back when it is over. This is a new way of life, a new healthier lifestyle, that you will be excited about and want to continue. Are you ready to improve your health, have more energy, feel better, have a healthier mindset, and be excited about life?
About Me
My name is Ellen Kaleikini. I started my health & fitness journey 20 years ago while training for body building competitions. I would go on to become a certified personal trainer, run marathons, teach indoor cycling classes, and eventually own a Crossfit gym with my husband for 6 years. We have 3 children who are now 13, 11, and 9 and all play ball. ⚾🥎🥎
Both my nutrition and type of exercise I enjoy has changed a lot over time. I spent a lot of years trying different "diets" and believing certain food groups were off limits. I spent some time believing I had to do early morning fasted cardio or an hour plus of high intensity workouts 5 days a week to maintain my fitness. As a mother of three, I don't have time for that. It has been liberating to finally learn how nutrition and macros can work for me and build a healthy lifestyle that allows me to maintain a healthy weight and enjoy food without feeling deprived and guilty or spending hours at the gym every day. At 43, I am the healthiest, mind, body, and soul, that I have ever been. As a former middle school math & science teacher and current NASM certified personal trainer and nutrition coach, I am excited to share my passion and knowledge of health and nutrition with you and get you on the path to wellness.
