It's Happening!

I am seeing changes!!  In how my body feels, how I feel.  My mind is clearer, my body feels stronger, healthier.  It is so amazing how food and activity can change your life!  I am always teaching classes and all in with my clients.  I absolutely love my job but sometimes I use up all my energy on others and struggle to fit in time for me or find motivation to move for me!  Well, that is changing!  It is something I sometimes go in and out of; lose focus of my goals, helping others achieve theirs.  But, I am back - and feeling great!  Cant' remember how I ever got to the point of choosing to stop.  It feels so good!  Taking the time, doing the work, feeling AND seeing the benefits in my body.  Physically as well as how my mind feels about my body.  Its time to be a little selfish and put me first.  No before my responsibilities but first in the fact that I am now scheduling my time, just like I would my clients!  Loving life!  How are you doing in your journey?  Do you need to sit-down and revisit that goal you wrote down?  Do you need to adjust it or add to it?  Maybe even define it a bit better.  I was struggling with mine, one that I would have to work for but could also achieve.  It was a simple goal but takes a lot of effort.  Be consistent for one week!  Now I am going to redefine that, having the motivation of accomplishing my week, its time to challenge myself further!!

My Favorite Snack

I have to admit…I have a favorite snack!  Do you?  I eat one everyday with my cup of coffee at 10:00 while I am sitting at my desk.  It's my mid-morning mini break.  Seems silly, sort of.  I try to be pretty scheduled with everything.  And no, I am not a control freak, I just like "order".  It is truly a benefit when it comes to fueling my body, however.  Eating at consistent times throughout each day helps keep your body on point and running properly.

LaraBars!  They are delicious!  Although my kiddos are not a fan, having a relatively clean diet of my own, they taste fabulous to me!  I will admit, the texture could throw you off a bit, but not me.  They are the best little snack ever!  I only buy the ones that don't add cane sugar.  My favorite is the Cherry Pie flavor!!  It is dried fruit and nuts ground and smashed together for a fabulous explosion of flavor in your mouth!  It is healthy, great fuel for your body and a tiny piece of happiness in a busy morning schedule.  I eat a snack size one - 90 calories!  Add a little natural protein to my coffee and I have fuel until lunch.

What is your favorite snack?  Share with me your healthy treats, after all, I am still switching up my afternoon snack and always looking for something tasty to try!
