In a slump or a plateau with your weight?

Today it is hectic out there! There is little time for relaxation, let alone fitness. If you are in a slump and too tired to work out, you are probably not eating the right foods! Load up on energy packed foods such as Chia seeds, yams, avocados, broccoli, ginger and green tea to name a few. Don’t sacrifice your workout because you forgot to eat properly. Treat your body like it’s your temple. That’s the secret! 

Drink as much in ounces as your body weight every day!

It is important to get enough water in your diet to flush out toxins and hydrate your skin. Keep a reusable bottle in the car, the kitchen and your bedroom and home office. This is a staple in your diet. Learn to love it. I make mine more exciting by adding lemon and cucumber slices, mint sprigs, and grapefruit slices. The citrus acts as a fat flusher while cucumber and mint detox and give flavor. Drink up!!

Week One of My Total Body Revolution

I’m taking my own spin on this method by the lovely fitness Guru, Jillian Michaels. I am following her Body Revolution Fitness plan  to the T but kind of altering her diet plan a bit to accommodate a tight budget for the penny saving moms out there!

I have included in this diet, lean meats,fat free organic dairy, pecans and almonds, lots of steamed veggies, fish, grains,   some fruits and honey.

Please follow me daily for my tips and tricks for losing weight and keeping it off on a budget!!
