6. Living the
Sweet and
Free Life
Reality TV star Tenley Mohlzahn is on a mission to
help others lead healthy lives
Within the first episode of Season 10 of The Bachelor (Jake
Pavelka’s season) people everywhere fell in love with Tenley
Mohlzahn’s sincerity, charm, beauty, and kindness. (Here
at Gluten-Free Lifestyle, she certainly got our “first impression
rose”!) Besides Tenley’s run on the hit ABC television show and its spin-off,
Bachelor Pad, this Certified Health Coach has been a proponent for an
active lifestyle as well as the gluten-free diet.
As a professional dancer, Tenley has always maintained a fit lifestyle. For
seven years, she danced all over the world as a part of Walt Disney Dance
Productions. This included a stint as “Ariel” in Tokyo Disney’s Under the
Sea tour. Dancing in this role included daring positions such as aerialist
work and hanging 80 feet above the audience. Tenley admits that these
experiences were terrific.
“I was 21 when I went to Tokyo, and it was a time of personal and pro-fessional
growth for me,” Tenley says. “Learning how to work with a vari-ety
of people, figuring how not to get lost in it. I had ribs come out of place,
I really struggled with exhaustion, but it taught me of the importance of a
strong work ethic. It opened up doors for me to just keep dreaming,” she
says.
Besides exhaustion, she experienced years of excruciating stomach is-sues.
These lead her to run off stage and have an understudy fill in for her
many times. What Tenley didn’t
realize, was that the food that she
was eating was responsible for her
extreme exhaustion and sickness.
She elaborates, “My whole life,
ever since I was a baby, I was al-ways
sick. My stomach was always
the problem. I went though so
many tests and doctors and even
was tested as a pre-teen for Celiac
disease, but no one ever suggested
that I needed to be gluten-free. My
symptoms got worse as I grew old-er,
and it was such a nuisance since
I lead an active lifestyle.”
She adds, “Right before my 25th
birthday, my mom gave me a book
about gluten-free diets and I to-tally
related to it. Every symptom
sounded like me. So I took all of
the gluten out of my diet, and three

weeks after, I felt amazing. What
upsets me is that I went to so many
doctors, and they were so unhelpful.
I had to self-diagnose myself and
that’s not okay. With something as
simple as changing the food I eat,
my entire life changed. I’m healthy
again.”
On how the diet influenced her
life, she says, “It changed my life for
the positive. I feel so much better. I
no longer feel held back. Even when
I used to eat ‘good’, it was not food
that was good for my body because
I couldn’t break it down and was
malnourished. Now I feel ‘cleaner’
inside and out. My body can actual-ly
keep up with itself !”
“The first gluten-free food I ate
was Pirates Booty popcorn. I had
been eating it before I realized that
I was gluten-intolerant, but when I
found out that it was gluten-free, I
downed a bag. It made me feel like
I wasn’t deprived of anything. Then
my friend told me about Kinnikinn-ick.
I immediately got some of their
products and fell in love with them,”
Tenley describes.
How did she maintain a glu-ten-
free diet while her time on The
Bachelor and Bachelor Pad? She elab-orates,
“The producers of both
shows kept the kitchens well-stocked
with basically everything that you
could ever think of. It wasn’t totally
gluten-free friendly, but there were
definitely options. There were lots
of potato chips and cereal bars that
I could eat, and they made sure to
get gluten-free Chex for me. I would
hide things in a corner that I knew
that I could eat. There was also lots
of produce, meats and vegetables,
so I tended to stick to foods that
were naturally gluten-free.”
She did run into some obstacles
on these TV shows, as she says,
“During filming of Bachelor Pad, we
had a pie-eating contest as a chal-lenge.
I was in tears as I thought
about having to scarf down a pie
filled with gluten. I was so strug-gling
with what to do. Thankfully,
the producers were so wonderful
that they got me a gluten-free pie.”
On her current diet, she men-tions,
“My evening snack tends to
be apples and peanut butter, frozen
grapes, or frozen yogurt. I have ma-jor
cravings for salty foods, so I love
Kettle Chips. Also for snacking, I
eat a handful of almonds and some
dried fruit or a gluten-free protein
bar. One of my favorites is apples
and Greek yogurt with cinnamon
and Stevia.”
For meals, she adds, “I love
ground turkey stuffed bell peppers,
zucchini spaghetti and protein pan-cakes.
I will eat protein pancakes
at any meal of the day, they are a
healthy choice and so simple with
very little ingredients. I have a lot
of favorites, and it’s a lot easier than
people think to create gluten-free
foods that are good for you too!”
Tenley is now a Certified Health
Coach in Nutrition and Wellness,
with a concentration on digestive
and gastrointestinal issues. She’s
on a mission to help the gluten-in-tolerant
get healthy. One vehi-cle
is through her website, www.
sweetandfreelife.com. There, she
shares stories from her gluten-free
awakening, recipes, tips on fitness
and maintaining a gluten-free life-style
and even dishes on fashion and
beauty advice.
For wisdom to young women, she
suggests, “The biggest thing is not
to be afraid of being high-mainte-nance.
Don’t sacrifice your health
for anything, especially a date. The
right guy will understand and be
your best gluten-free fan. Plus, the
guy would rather you be healthy
then hear you complain about not
feeling well all night!”
