Posted by on Jan 7, 2014 in Fitness, Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Someone Busier Than You Is Running Right Now

“I’m SOOOO Busy” is a common excuse for not working out. I get it. I used to say it myself, until I realized that my excuses weren’t helping me reach my goals. I’ve realized that we are all busy. You’re busy, I’m busy…but no matter how busy we are, we need to make time for the things that are important to us. If a healthy body is important to you then you just need to make the time to exercise and make healthy food. Busy with your kids? Exercise with them! Play tag and run around the yard. Busy with work?

Stop Adding Toxins To Your Body

Posted by on Jan 6, 2014 in Beauty | Comments Off on Stop Adding Toxins To Your Body

One of my resolutions for 2014 is to stop adding toxins to my body. It’s something I have already been working towards, and I am pushing myself to use better products for a healthier body. Check out this image below. As you can see, we are adding hundreds of toxic chemicals to our  body on a daily basis. These toxins don’t come without side effects to our overall health. Your personal care and beauty products are damaging the body’s organs, cause allergies, hormonal imbalances and linked to cancer – just to name a few. YIKES! You can’t tell me that these products are worth all of those things! Throughout the year I plan on educating myself and my readers about what’s in the personal care and beauty products so you know why you should ditch them – and I’ll...

A Year From Now…

Posted by on Jan 1, 2014 in Holiday, Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on A Year From Now…

New Years day is a great time to reflect on the previous year – the good and the bad. As I was looking back on what I have accomplished this last year, I am quite happy with the results even thought I didn’t accomplish everything I was striving for. I am happy because I am further ahead now than last year when I started. If I was exactly where I was last year today, I think I would feel a huge sense of regret and “I should haves”. I think if you just keep moving forward every year- even if you haven’t yet reached your ultimate goal – you should feel happy and proud that you are closer to your goal. Progress is progress, no matter how small. What have you accomplished this last year that you are proud...
