Vegan Shakeology Tropical Strawberry – Coming Soon!

This in!  Just announced, Strawberry Tropical Shakeology will be out on Valentine’s Day.  Let’s talk about why tasty, Vegan and nutritious can be in this once a day meal or snack replacement.

Shakeology helps your body by feeding it so it can operate at the highest level.  There is a difference between Shakeology and any other shake, be sure to see the basic differences here.

Vegan Shakeology!  This is different!  Why? Cause usually Vegan Shake are gritty and far from tasty.  The sweetener is coconut powder nectar.  The type of protein, very special, has never been used in a shake but works so well to make this delicious.

This Vegan Tropical Strawberry is pink, wrapped in Love and will Love you back on Valentines’ Day!  Enjoy!!

Healthy Recipe!

Ingredients:

· 2 bunches of asparagus

· 2 Tbs. olive oil 2 Tbs. butter (optional)

· 2 large onions 2 Tbs. chpd. fresh basil

· 2/3 cup uncooked basmati or jasmine rice

· 2 quarts of low-sodium vegetable or chicken stock

Salt and pepper to taste

I love this soup because dairy doesn’t agree with me, yet I can still get a creamy soup. Pureeing the basmati or jasmine rice gives a lovely creamy texture without the use of heavy cream! Great for those with dairy allergies or who are trying to lose weight. And it’s mighty tasty, too!

Directions:

Trim ends from asparagus, then cut the rest of the stalks into 1/2-inch pieces, reserving the tips.

Heat oil in large pot over medium high heat. Add onions and sauté 5 minutes, or until soft. Stir in asparagus pieces, rice, stock, butter and basil. Reduce heat, cover and cook 30 to 35 minutes, or until rice is very tender, then transfer the soup to a blender or food processor and purée until smooth. Return the soup to the pot, and add asparagus tips. Simmer 1 to 2 min. over low heat, or until asparagus tips are bright green and crisp-tender. Serve immediately. Serves 8

Each one cup serving (without the butter) contains 120 calories, 4 grams of fat, 0 cholesterol, 18 grams of carbs, 4 grams of protein, and only 25mg of sodium. Pretty cool, huh?

A Busy Mom’s Best Time to Exercise

What is your best time to exercise?  We are all so busy, so when do we fit it in?  Morning, noon or night.

Today, I realized how good it was to exercise at 6am when I tried 11am.  I was interrupted with important phone calls that I was waiting for.  I was also interrupted by baby.  So now I know that mid morning is not a good time to exercise at home.

Moms, you might have experienced the same.  You found the bad time to exercise but maybe you didn’t come back to exercising.  Come back!  Try another time.  You will find a good time!

My best time is still 6am.  My alternative time is around 4pm.  Then 8 or 9pm should be fine as well since the house is usually quiet.

Moms, don’t give up!  It’s so important that you have the stamina to have fun or to deal with your crazy children!  You need to exercise for them and to keep your sanity, to have your time and to feel a change in your body.  Exercise at home today!

Campaign Against Being “Comfy” – Lose Weight

Now is the time of year that we settle down and get comfy.  Comfy clothes, comfy couch, comfy TV and/or books.  Comfort food.  What can this all lead to?  Weight gain!  Let’s plan against this trend and go for weight loss this year!

It’s so well known that many people gain weight over the holidays, possibly 10 pounds.  That’s a lot of additional eating and sitting!  A lot of being too comfy.

If this is your trend, is this your year to get uncomfortable and lose weight?

I’ve found that I gained weight slowly, like it was just creeping on my body, unnoticeable until it was noticeable – at least to my discerning eye!  I didn’t like this and made a very uncomfortable and very unpopular commitment to change my eating and be sure I made 100 effort while I exercised.  In this case, I committed to drop sugar, unless it was natural, all done right on Halloween!  Just imagine going through the holidays with less sugar!!  I had the whole month of November to get used to this before Thanksgiving and then a month more till Christmas.  My family didn’t like it and thought I was crazy but let me tell you – I lost weight and looked different while people around me just grew.

How about you?  Are you just sick of the extra weight you gain during this time of year?  Ready to change this NOW?!

I will be hosting a weight loss challenge group in January but if you can’t wait until then to get started, email me NOW here.

Your Kids can get Excited to Exercise at Home Too!

A great side effect of exercise at home is that your children will see you exercise and see you making it a priority.  They will see you having fun.  And they will end up using your weights, stability ball and medicine balls.  They want to join in

What do you do when they want to use your exercise equipment?  Let them!  As long as it’s safe.  Most likely it will be fun for them and hopefully, their fun will help you continue exercising at home.

I have my little guy, 4 years old, help me exercise. He knows it’s important to me to exercise and plays or watches me exercise.  He used to totally interrupt me but now he’s trained not to.  Although, he has his times.

Here he is, teaching you a few exercises..

There’s a way to exercise at home that has been proven to be fun for all.  Be sure to get the fun videos or do fun stuff or make crazy faces so that your kids will enjoy the exercises and support you.  Here’s where you can get support and get the exercise programs that really work, click here.

Could this be for YOU?  Lose Weight – Win?

What if you were presented an exercise opportunity to get on a regimen to lose weight?  and then on top of it, you could win money?  Would you believe it or just brush it off as a hoax?  This is a nation wide challenge to lose weight, get healthy and totally transformed.

Your first option:  Believe it to be true!   Sometimes something too good to be true can really be the answer you are looking for, and be the reason to finally get started in losing weight.  What do you have to lose, but your extra weight.

Your second option:  Brush it off… Maybe you are not ready to commit to a fitness program and still think you won’t be able to commit to changing your health.  When will you be ready?  There’s never a perfect time when all the stars are lined up.  But if you feel it’s best to brush it off, then do it.

Did Exercise During Pregnancy Help Delivery?

This question can be debated and debated on for a long time.  But most people told me that exercise during pregnancy will make for an easy and quick delivery.   So the question is, how was the delivery now that the entire pregnancy was filled with some sort of exercise?  Easy and short?

To include the labor and delivery, it lasted about 2 hours.  I didn’t realize it, but that is extremely short.  It was rough and painful, but then again, it’s never pain-free.  Here’s the quick story, since there really isn’t much time in 2 hours, it will be quick!

• Contractions started about 11pm, within a few minutes of each other.
• By 11:20 or 11:30, contractions were within a minute of each other.
• Called the doctor about 11:30 or a little later and she told me to come in immediately.  She would meet me there.
• 11:52 out the door, a friend was coming for our Lucas, sleeping in his bed.
• Just after midnight, entered the hospital and tried to register but the computer was down.
• Into WETU, where they did a short evaluation, then onto a stretcher, onto an elevator and up to the delivery floor.
• Finally, the doctor evaluated me, 9.5cm.  No time for epidural, ugh.
• She broke the water and told me to push.
• Less than 7 minutes of pushing and the baby was out.  1am

I would say that exercise helped my body get ready for this event and possibly made it go so quickly.  I would have never imagined such a quick delivery.  If I had stayed at home even a little longer, who knows, I could have had the baby at home.

I urge you to exercise, if you are pregnant.  It can only help.  Birth is an athletic event.  Don’t go into it unprepared.  And caring for your newborn is also athletic… sometimes, with all the equipment, getting up and down and so on.  So get prepared, exercise while pregnant!
