Back and Better Than Ever!

I'm back! I cannot believe how incredibly busy life can get as a mom, wife, cook, chauffeur, housekeeper, full time employee....you get the picture. Somehow my blog became swept into the pile of things I just didn't have time for. And lately that has me thinking...how many of us are doing the same with our health?  Let's be honest, diet and exercise take time and work. Time we may not have. Or do we?

I had this exact conversation with my mom a couple days ago. Imagine a person who has 20 pounds to lose. If you told this person they needed to lose all 20 pounds in say, 3 months, I am sure there are many excuses that could be made as to why that isn't possible. No time, too busy with the kids, not enough money to buy healthy foods, my knee isn't able to handle the workouts.....

Now tell that same person that if they lose all 20 pounds in the 3 months, they will be given $100,000. I bet they get those pounds off in a hurry!

Becoming healthy, thinner, in better physical shape....whatever your goal....needs to be a priority. No, you likely won't be handed a small fortune when you reach your goal, but the prize for succeeding is much better than money! You will live longer, feel better, become more confident, finally wear that 2 piece bathing suit!

Let's make our goals our priority. Remind yourself "I HAVE TIME FOR ME". The kids, laundry, television set will not mind you taking 30 minutes to hit the elliptical, get out for a walk, prepare fresh veggies for the week, or read some motivational blogging!

Let's get back on track.

I am going to do the same.

I'm back, and promise more healthy tips and tricks to have you feeling better than ever!
