Getting Back On Track!

This week I started student teaching, and my healthy life has just fallen apart! No excuses! So, it's time to get back on track. I was doing so well, and I was starting to lift heavy weights. My journey this time won't be as intense because of other things, but I have to do something. So I'm challenging myself to eat right and work out for Valentines Day. It may seem like a silly idea, but short and long term goals is what keeps us moving. I got the idea from the Tone It Up website. No, I don't have a membership with them. Struggling student, mom, and wife. I AINT GO TIME FOR THAT! But, there workouts are free and really cute!! I also am doing the 30 Day Catching Fire Bodyrock Challenge. I must stick to my challenges for the most part. I'll probably switch things up a little.

I've Got Goal!!!

Me Bodyrocking. The most intense 12min ever!!!

Flour-less Mini Pancakes

These pancakes are so yummy, and they could be paired with fruit or toppings of your choice. I normally make a big batch for the week. Because they are so small, I'm able to eat them on the go. Someone bought me a Pie Pop Maker for Christmas, and that is why I am able to get such perfect round pancakes.

KALE!

I really like Kale. When you sauté it, it has a unique taste that is awesome. You can eat it raw or you can cook it. I have mine mixed here with sweet potatoes. Kale is full of iron, vitamin K and C, is anti-inflammatory, and it has Calcium. These little leaves pack power! I even throw them in my smoothies. I prefer Baby Kale. This little leaf and many other green veggies should be bought organic when possible. It's apart of the dirty dozen. I will talk about that in another post. But this Kale, is the bomb! Bon appetite!

Be Active: With My Little One

 We are park hoppers. LOL. Any cool park within reach and we are there! This is my 7 year old man that helps me to stay active in so many ways. In the past I may have sat on the bench and watched him play. That's one reason why I have to be in shape and full of energy. For this little guy :). Fun mommy
