As I was vacuuming today, I was really taken aback by how much I enjoyed the task lately. Weird, right? But recently my husband and I decided enough was enough with the less expensive vacuums always letting us down. We decided to bite the bullet and invest in a Dyson. […]
To eat organic, or not? That is the question on the minds of many Americans. Personally I try to eat an organic diet most of the time. It seems a little difficult to eat strictly organic all the time for a few reasons though. One reason is the vast […]
Shakeolog is a delicious patent-pending formula that is packed with proteins and energy-providing carbohydrates, plus a combination of nutrients that is simply impossible to find at your local supermarket or even health food store. Beachbody searched the world to find acai and goji berries, camu-camu, quinoa, wheatgrass, maca root, and […]

I felt like I needed to write something up on why I decided to put P90X2 on hold for now. Yes, I was really going to stat P90X2 on January 2nd, but I have to tell you, I wasn’t really looking forward to it. I pre-ordered it because I wanted […]
Super Food (Sacha Inchi) is one of the 70 plus super foods that make up Shakeology. Sacha Inchi is naturally rich in protein and fiber, so it’s a strong appetite controller (nature’s diet). Then it goes a step further by helping to speed up your metabolism, so you can […]

School is back in session which means a lot more structured schedules, homework, after school activities, and PLANNING. Time management and prioritization can be challenging, especially when trying to live a healthy lifestyle. I’m still struggling with my family’s new scheduling routine this school year. With three […]
Everyday someone wants me to make up a meal plan for them. I used to do this for my personal clients for free. But honestly I stopped because it was time consuming and I wasn’t getting paid for it. Don’t get me wrong, I do love to offer […]
Do I have a secret weapon that I use to keep my busy schedule with parenting, working , working out and living life to the fullest each day. It is no secret that my faith is an integral part of my life, but is there anything else that I […]
When it comes to food portions, size matters. In a world filled with “supersized” options, all-you-can-eat buffets, and extra-large pizzas, it’s no wonder people overeat. Have you ever found yourself in one of these situations? Eating snacks straight out of the bag while watching television, or even grabbing a second […]
If you’re like most Americans, you’re probably eating only three servings of fruits and vegetables a day, if that. Big mistake. Research shows that the more veggies you consume daily, the better off you’ll be, in terms of overall health and body weight. Aim for five to nine or even […]
