My new fave thing for breakfast!!! This is soo yummy and so healthy!! It's a lil pricier than your average cereal but it's SUPER healthy!! Follow the serving size! I eat this with unsweetened almond milk. I try to avoid dairy and soy milk. Women, if you drink soy milk- be careful of all the estrogen in soy milk as this can affect your hormones! Dairy also affects your skin and allergies, believe it or not.
I've decided to start a blog about fitness, eating right, and having a fun healthy lifestyle!

Be smart while you workout!
Hi all!!
Here's a great exercise that combines yoga and strength training! If you don't have a lot of time to workout, you gotta workout smart! This means, combine several muscle groups in one workout.
For instance, the video below works the legs and back muscles all in one move, plus a bit of core to stabilize yourself. You want to do three sets of 12-15 reps. Remember, you want to feel the burn in the last three reps. If you're going for size, then go for 8-10 reps, whereas if you're going for lean, then do 12-15 reps.
Let me know what you think!!! :)

Monday- what should I make for lunch??!
Hi all!!
Monday- bleh!!! This morning, I woke up not wanting to get out of bed and I had to go to work! You know how that goes on a typical Monday morning! I finally got myself out of bed and had to make a quick lunch to bring to work, but I didn't have any time since most of it was spent on Facebook- again, you know how that goes!! :) hahaha
My super easy lunch today and it was healthy too!!! Packed with protein to build muscle!!!! :-D

Obsessed or Dedicated?
Would you call me obsessed with fitness and eating right?? Or would you call me dedicated? I wouldn't call myself obsessed.
I have the occasional cheat days and some days I just don't feel like working out. I just like doing that on my own terms, not because you tell me, "oh that dessert won't hurt, you've been working out and look great." I may have had a cheat day the day before and I'm done with my cheat day for the week. I like to cheat once (or twice!) a week to reward myself. I wouldn't be in the shape that I am if I cheated more than that.
Dedicate yourself!!
