FITNESS TIP

We know that keeping a food log helps us stay on track with our nutrition. So how about keeping a fitness journal as well? Studies show that documenting things keeps us accountable, which ultimately leads to greater success. If you write down your goals and remind yourself of them regularly, you will constantly be thinking about the choices you make and if they are going to help you reach those goals.

One of the most important things to keep in mind when thinking about your fitness goals is to make them attainable. Our bodies don't change overnight. You can't expect the number on the scale to drastically change in a short amount of time. Actually forget the scale all together- try to find a deeper reason to get healthy. Maybe you want to be able to make more memories playing with your children without getting tired. Other good goals might include bad habits you want to quit. Try to replace them with new healthy habits.

Make a calendar and circle the days of the week you want to workout. Schedule your workouts ahead of time, and treat them like you would any other appointment. Don't No Show! It's generally recommended to not go more than 2 days without any activity, even if it's a short or light workout. 

Measuring your workouts can be a great way to stay motivated. Tools like heart rate monitors, fitbits, or any other fitness app can track your progress. Use them to set short term goals for yourself. Did burn 300 calories in your last workout? Maybe try to push yourself a little harder next time and shoot for 350! And when you achieve small wins like that, celebrate them! Get that new workout tank you've been wanting or maybe spend the afternoon at the spa. Anything that's going to feel like reward without undoing your progress! On the other hand if you come up short sometimes try to encourage yourself with positive thoughts. Don't get down on yourself becuase you failed, just tell yourself you WILL do better next time.

NUTRITION TIP 

We have all beent here ... we decide we finally are going to start a new "diet" or nutrition plan, we read all the information on it, we plan, we prep, but wait, what do we do with all of the treats, snacks, cookies, and unhealthy foods already in the house?

Many have told me that they have to finish eating all of these foods BEFORE starting a new program, but then I ask them why?  Here are some of the reasons I get and another point of view to consider: 

- I don't like to waste food ... but is it really food? Most of the treats and snacks you buy are filled with chemicals, preservatives, and unnatural ingredients so I'd say you're not really wasting FOOD. What do you think?

- I spent money on it already ... whatever the amount of money you spent, just think of it as money spent to spare your body of harm, disease and medical bills!

- I buy these for the kids ... you feed your kids unhealthy snacks? We're not judging here, and I understand we all need quick snacks for the family, but if YOU can find healthy snacks, I'm sure you can find healthier options for the family too. #noexcuses

- Sometimes I just need a little something or I'll go crazy ... stop letting your Sugar Dragon speak for you.  Your Sugar Dragon (the yeast living in your gut from all of the sugary substances you've been feeding it over the years) has taken over your gut and is now trying to control your mind and your actions. Don't let it win! Don't continue to feed it power! Kill it with CLEAN EATING! YOU CAN DO IT!

If none of these (excuses) resonate with you, just tell us which one you use and I'm sure we can come up with another point of view to consider ;) 

In summary, get rid of all the unhealthy foods in your house before starting a new nutrition program and spare yourself the temptation.  And getting rid of it doesn't mean eating it! 
 
RECIPE OF THE MONTH
Rosemary Chicken Salad
with Avocado and Bacon

381 caloriesTOTAL                              TIME:30 minutes


This hearty Rosemary Chicken Salad with Avocado and Bacon is HUGE – perfect when you want a low-carb meal that will fill you up! It's also gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free and soy-free for people with food allergies.


INGREDIENTS:
3 slices center-cut bacon, diced
2 boneless, trimmed skinless chicken thighs (4 oz each)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tbsp fresh rosemary
3 cups chopped romaine lettuce, chopped
1/2 cup baby arugula or watercress
1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
3 tablespoons chopped red onion
4 oz avocado, sliced (1 small)


For the rosemary vinaigrette:

1 tsp dijon mustard
4 tsp olive oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp fresh minced rosemary
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
 
DIRECTIONS:

Cook bacon in a large heavy nonstick skillet until crispy, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel to drain and set aside.
Drain the fat but don't wipe the skillet, leaving any excess oil in the pan to cook the chicken.
Season chicken with salt and rosemary, cook in the skillet over medium-high heat until golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side.
Make a bed of the romaine and arugula (or watercress) in a large serving bowl or platter (or divide between 2 plates). Scatter the cherry tomatoes, red onion and bacon on top.
Slice the avocado, sprinkle with pinch of salt and arrange on salad. Slice the chicken thighs and add to the salad.
To make the rosemary vinaigrette, in a small bowl whisk the ingredients. Pour over the salad and serve right away.
