Happy New Year 2013!!

Will this be a year of a "new you"?

No pressure of deadlines! Get those out of your head! Just do what is realistic in adding to your life and/or changing your lifestyle!

When I changed my eating, I had mentally prepared a year before it happened while I as pregnant with #4 and at my Heaviest!. When the door opened to do it, I did not plan it or see it coming, but felt the opportunity and GRABBED IT!

Get focused and take baby steps!

These were/are mine...


So please do this - Your Homework...
  • Hand-Write Down your goals.
  • Put them where you see them (bath mirror, fridge, etc)
  • Know you *will* have Amazing days!
  • Know you *will* have defeated days!
  • Know that the next meal or next day you can start over (if you backslide).
  • Give yourself Grace, Love, Time, and Forgiveness
  • Be Focused, Determined, Driven, and Goal minded
  • Get a partner to do this with (spouses encouraged to do this together or get a friend who will not enable you to fail).
  • Yes, you may consume your day with thinking about what you eat and what you do ... Until it become habit or an auto-lifestyle.
WE CAN DO THIS!

My challenge this year is to add more activity to my life (dare I call it exercise?).

So I can reach the next level of health. I have a husband and fours kids (8 and under) that need a healthy wife/mommy. Things can surely happen out of my control, but at the end of the day I have to live with the (few) things that I can control - My Fork and Getting off my Booty!

Let's Do This!

 Woah it has been a while but I have not stopped being concerned for my health and for others. I still watch what I eat and encourage others to do the same. Then I need to get more active. Since last summer, it has not been the best. Walking more has been my current goal. How about you? This is a photo of me and my girls. I feel a huge responsibility to make sure they know nutrition and lifestyle choices: benefits and consequences.  Click on my Health Living Resources and let's do 2023 right!

Breakfast Shake: Skeptic to Believer

Eat Breakfast - Never Skip IT! My Old Mindset... Food is just wonderful. I feel we should EAT! So when I see 'meal replacements', I'm tuned off. My New Thinking... We are not "replacing the meal"... we are still HAVING the Meal! A wonderful way to get what you need quick, easy, and delicious! It's a mindset that I now understand. So lets Eat, even if it's in a cup! I used to eat... Yummy omelets packed with veggies, not too bad for you really, but about an hour after, lets just say I had some less-than-desired symptoms. Then about 2-4 hours after, I was a little "munchie" or "snacky". Not good when you want to limit snacks (increasing insulin production in your body, with me, pcos). Weightloss was slow, and not much increased energy. Now I eat... A " JJ Virgin Breakfast Shake " (a link to article with free recipe). I use JJ Virgin's Shake/Smoothie Recipes  a (link to pdf of recipes) and the results: Love the Tast...
