Spinach

One cup of boiled or steamed spinach delivers 1000% of your daily value of bone-building vitamin K. Happy Clean Eating!!!

Oxygen Magazine

The oxygen magazine this month is amazing. The magazine is filled with fabulous articles, great recipes, great meal plans. I feel so motivated and inspired to do better in my daily prgress of fitness. The articles are inspring me to eat more clean. To really think about what you are putting into your body. If you feel like you really need chocolate, take a 15 minute walk because you probably will not want that chocolate when you return. The walking produces endorphins and those make you feel good just like chocolate. If you think you are hungry drink an 8 oz glass of water and wait 10 minutes to see if you were really just thirsty. Oh, I cannot tell you what great ideas are in this months oxygen everyone needs to go buy it, you will be just as motivated as I am. Happy Clean Eating!!!

Resolution

I love the new year because it gives you a new start. You can do anything you set your mind to. With the new year it is time to reflect on goals, short and long term goals. We are going to Hawaii in April and I really would like to feel great in my swimsuit. I have set a few goals for the new year. Eating better working out a little hard. Pushing myself to the next level. Not just doing the same thing day in and day out. When we do that we tend to get in a rut. Hard to break bad habits. I enjoy feeling good and looking good. When your jeans don't fit that is a bad feeling. I also resolve to get more sleep and drink more water. Two things we all should be doing more of. When I drink my 4 liters of water each day I feel lighter and have more energy because I am flushing the toxins out of my body. The Clean eating mag is wonderful and full of new and exciting recipes we all could use. The hardest part for me is making my kids try new things. Happy Clean Eating to all the year.
