A basic guide to eating at restaurants. Don’t be fooled by the lingo! Just because it sounds healthy, doesn’t mean it is. I don’t know about other states, but in California by law, restaurants now have to provide a nutrition facts menu. In fact, on most menus, they put the calories right next to the food!! Definitely a good deterrent for eating out lol. But the nutrition facts menu will typically tell you how much sodium/sugar/saturated fat and other macro and micro nutrients are in the food they provide.  
Yet another reason to learn how to read a nutrition facts label girlies! <3

I posted this a while ago.. but it popped up on my dash just now so I thought I’d reblog it for those of you who might have missed it the first time around! =)

To help you stay on track every day this May, I made a daily planner!
Don’t procrastinate this month! Forget about the phrase, “I’ll start tomorrow!” Focus on today…focus on the moment!
You will succeed this month and you will reach your goals! :)
Good luck everybody!


This is perfect. 

I think I might remake this with a little less pink!!

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must; but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and…

This is a great visual of fat and muscle!
Notice how although both are the same weight, the muscle is much smaller? That’s because muscle is denser than fat. Muscle is also metabolically active tissue.
Metabolic rate is determined by the amount of fat-free mass in your body. Fat-free Mass (FFM) is made up of internal organs, muscle, and bone. So basically, the more muscle you have, the higher your metabolic rate will be. That’s one of the reasons why weight training is very important to overall fat-reduction. A higher metabolic rate = more calories burned, which makes it easier to lose body fat! (That’s a simplified explanation, but you get the idea!). =)

Yogurt contains healthy probiotics that help you better absorb your vitamins and minerals from your other meal. In addition probiotic aid your digestive track.
For the best option of yogurt go with plain greek yogurt! Add fruit and honey to better flavour the yogurt.
