Shakeology, one of the best ways to lose weight.

Posted by

I have Shakeology as a meal replacement for breakfast. This has helped me to overcome my plateau and lose the stress layer of fat that I had gained on my stomach. But, not only did I lose the fat, I have more energy and feel great! I have been drinking green smoothies for years and this has the right mix of nutrients my body needs.Also, you get a “bottom of the bag guarantee”. If you are not completely satisfied by the end of the bag, just send the empty bag back for your refund. So you have nothing to lose and everything to gain (health, fitness and vitality)!

Who knew, sugar is toxic!

Wow, 60 minutes did a story on the evils of sugar. And in fairness to Jack Lalanne, he had it right all along.

Not only can it make you fat but it can shorten your life. How much sugar do consume a day?

Here is Jack Lalanne talking about sugar and “Sugarholics”.

And here is the 60 min clip that talks about sugar, heart disease and cancer. Makes you think about what you eat.

On a lighter note, have fun, smile a lot and laugh often.

Inspirational Video!

This is a video you must watch! An amazing transformation featuring a veteran, who had given up hope and found life again.

Betty my sleepy angel.

A great reminder that we should never give up on ourselves!

 

Arthur Boorman was a disabled veteran of the Gulf War for 15 years, and was told by his doctors that he would never be able to walk on his own, ever again.

He stumbled upon an article about Diamond Dallas Page doing Yoga and decided to give it a try — he couldn’t do traditional, higher impact exercise, so he tried DDP YOGA and sent an email to Dallas telling him his story.

Dallas was so moved by his story, he began emailing and speaking on the phone with Arthur throughout his journey – he encouraged Arthur to keep going and to believe that anything was possible. Even though doctors told him walking would never happen, Arthur was persistent. He fell many times, but kept going.

Walking and Running My Morning Ritual.

Posted by

I love to get up and head out with the dogs each morning. It starts the day off right for me. My oldest dog has arthritis and cannot run like she use to, so I power walk them when she comes with us. There are mornings she likes to hang out in the back yard and take it easy. On those mornings Betty, Emma and I head out for a run.I like running, it really helps to calm my mind and settle my body.

This is Emma.

Emma is in the middle. She loves to run!

And Maggie.

Maggie is the oldest and the sweetest.

 

And Betty.

She is a very loving dog.

So there you have it. My running buddies. They keep my honest and make sure I get up and out the door every morning.

What kind of ritual(s) do you like to do to prepare yourself for the day ahead?
