    Back on the Road to Healthy Living

    I’m back in the game with healthy living. This will start with healthy eating and working out. As it turns out clean eating isn’t exactly clean. Sometimes you have to get a little dirty in the kitchen to get those yummy clean meals. We just had a first and cooked our first whole chicken in the crock pot. I wasn’t exactly thrilled with the idea of squeezing the chicken out of the bag to prep it. Luckily my amazing husband volunteered to prep the chicken for my while I documented the process. Here are the meals I have planned out…

    Taking Control of My Health

    As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases At the risk of sounding whiny I’ve got to tell you all the past month (with the exception of our 4-day weekend vacation) has been pretty rough. For the first time in 3 years, I’ve been sick. About a month ago I was feeling kind of achy and tired. I figured I just didn’t get enough sleep and my seasonal allergies were getting the best of me.

    PiYo Week 5 – A Fresh Start

    I’m not perfect. I will be the first to admit that. Last week was supposed to be my 5th week in PiYo. Let me tell you I really let things go last week. The past 2 weeks have been extremely stressful for me. And with that stress comes stress eating. And with stress eating comes lack of sleep. And with lack of sleep comes lack of exercise. It’s just a big snowball effect. When Friday came around and I had missed workouts and the ones I actually did I did a sloppy job I decided I just needed a fresh…
