"Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what? Get started now. With each step you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful." ~Mark Victor Hansen
I came across this quote this morning and thought about how this is so true. We are always waiting for just the right moment to start something lifestyle~changing. I find this with a lot of people I talk to regarding healthy eating. Everyone always has "one more thing" going on (a party, a trip, house guests, etc.) before they can start eating healthy. But that "one more thing" turns in to another and another, then before they know it, months have gone by without a change, and they are wondering why they aren't getting the results they wanted from their exercise and nutrition..
Seriously, if you have been putting off exercising and eating healthy till after the New Year like everyone else, start TODAY!!!! Get some kind of activity in and eat real food.
And, if you need any help getting started, or some motivation and encouragement, contact me. I would LOVE to help!

The best gift you can give yourself.
It's the season of giving, and I want you to give your SELF something amazing....and that is the gift of ...cooking your own food. Sounds pretty simple and not very exciting, but let's elaborate on this for a minute...
I believe that cooking your own food celebrates self-respect. Making your own meals is very important, especially when you are trying to eat better or become healthier, overall. The "food" available to us in grocery stores these days, is not FOOD at all. It's a packaged food~like product, probably created in a lab (really), by mixing lots of other food~like products and chemicals together(really, seriously). It's NOT food.
When you cook your own food (out of real, whole foods NOT in a package), you have control of what you put into your body. This may not sound like a big deal, but really, it is. The most important thing you can do for yourself now and in the future is to be eating real, clean, organic when possible fresh vegetables and fruit and humanely raised and pastured meats. Yes, it's more expensive, but it is also an investment into your health, and that of your family.
Most of the disease that riddles our society today can be prevented from eating a healthy diet, comprised of foods that are in the perimeter of the grocery store. You've heard this before....it's true. If you need help making the change into a more healthful, REAL food diet, please contact me. I would be happy to help you, it's my passion, after all. :) Shop for your own real food, cook it yourself, then truly appreciate the meal you create. Your body will love you for it and you will feel so much better! Merry Christmas to yourself!!!
