TIP OF THE DAY....

Keeping a daily log of your diet is a great way to stay on track. When you're honest with yourself and write down everything you eat, you'll think twice about eating too often or the wrong foods. It will help you stay focused on your goals.

I start out the day by writing a positive affirmation on the top of the log sheet. And at the end of the day I write my feeling on how I did - I always write positively. If you haven't kept a diet journal before, give it a try, it's very simple and very motivating.

Hi everyone!

Wow! What a fabulous day it has been. I did a computer radio show this morning with my dear Sxinney sisters, Heidi & Kellyann, at Planetary Streams.com. We had such an amazing experience!!!! We had such a great time. When I met Kim I felt as though she was a long lost friend. It was magical. I have to say that I love synchronicity! We all had such a wonderful time and after the show we went out for lunch, it was lovely. I enjoyed every minute with them and before we knew it was time for our children to come home from school. It was great just to sit down and visit. We'll be back next week again to do another show. I'm really looking forward to it! I feel incredibly blessed to have all these outstanding people show up in my life! BTW, you can listen to it tonight at 5 pm and 10 pm MST. Also, we did a little 2 minute commercial as well you can watch. It really was such a fun, fun day!

And now my kids are home, so I have to run. I'll touch base tomorrow. Have a wonderful evening! :)

TIP OF THE DAY....

Goal setting is essential when beginning a weight loss or fitness plan. Set short term goals that are achievable. Write them down and read them everyday when you wake up and before you go to bed. For example if you want to lose 10 lbs of here are 4 goals you could use to achieve your desired goal.

1. I will be 10 lbs lighter by May 15th or I am 10 lbs lighter!
2. I will eat 5 to 6 nutritious meals a day or I eat 5 nutritious meals every day!
3. I will exercise at least 20 minutes 3 days a week or I exercise 20 minutes a day easily.
4. I will drink at least 80 oz of SXinney Water a day or I drink SXinney Water all day long.

Speaking in the present tense will bring your goals to fruition quicker. Be sure to also write down at least 5 positive affirmations that will support your fitness goals. For example you could write, "I am fit, thin & healthy!" "I have tons of energy everyday!" "I am joyful & happy!" "Life supports me abundantly in every way!"

I can't underestimate the power of positive thinking. So focus each day on your goals and before you realize it you will be well on your way to achieving your goals! And when you do reach your goals reward yourself - you'll deserve it!

Good morning,

Last night we had a ZXoom meeting at the corporate office, it was a great success. I'm still pinching myself that I'm one of the first to begin this incredible journey. I can't even express the gratitude I feel for this opportunity. I love everyone that has joined the ZXoom team. They're all seriously so cool! My best friend, Heidi, and I have so much fun working together. She introduced Liv SXinney Water to me, she's such a doll! We have fun talking about our dreams and all the fun things we'll do together with our families. The financial success I can make with ZXoom is literally a dream come true! And I dream BIG! :)

Well, today is a cold raining day! Ugh! I'm thankful for the moisture; but I'd rather it rain all night and wake up to the beautiful sunshine. And on rainy days I don't get to play with my horses... it's just not as enjoyable. But that's okay, I'll get a lot of work done from home... Listen to me, I don't even want to go outside... I'm so silly.... lol.

I signed up two people yesterday! I'm thrilled to have them a member of my Dream Team. They're both dear friends. And today I'd like to sign up two more. I believe in the products power of healing in addition to weight loss. So I want to tell everyone I know about how awesome Liv SXinney is! Within a short amount of time Liv SXinney will be well known. I'm so excited about the future!!! Life really is so good!!!

TIP OF THE DAY....

Do you get enough sleep? People don't often realize the importance of good, quality sleep. To create a lean, tight physique you should have at least 7 to 9 hours of the blessed zzzzz's. Your body rejuvenates the mind, skin, organs and muscles during the sleeping hours. Not only do you need quality sleep to be alert and have energy but it will also reduce your stress level and it's a great anti aging secret as well. SXinny Water assists in getting a great nights rest. So drink up, get to bed on time and wake up energized!

Hey there!

Well, I'm happy to report that I slept great! I feel a lot better - yeah! And it's supposed to be 95 degrees today! I'm stoked! And I'm tickled that I feel stronger; I was actually able to workout this morning!!! I'm so excited!!! Today's going to be a great day! I was able to workout longer with heavier weights, thanks to my yummy SXinney Water. I still don't feel 100%, my head & chest are still a bit congested, but SW gave me the strength to get through my workout. I couldn't live without SXinney Water at this point. My kids drink it all day long too now, their bodies are craving it too. It's incredibly healthy, I love that my kids are drinking it too.

I've decided to get back on track with my fitness goals. This past month or so I haven't been able to workout as hard and as often due to my fatigue. And my physique is reminding me of that. I'm softer than I prefer to be. So I've set new goals to refocus. I'm going to get to bed sooner and to eat healthier. I use cottage cheese too much for my protein, when I should be eating more tuna, chicken, fish, & eggs instead. I've been so crazy busy that I haven't been preparing as I should. So I'm going to cook up some chicken breasts & brown rice today to have already made meals to save time. And I'm going to have a veggie or fruit with each mini meal. I'm going to try to eat 3 main meals with 3 protein snacks between meals eating every 3 to 4 hours. I hope to have 5 to 6 meals a day primarily of protein and veggies. By eating clean and drinking a gallon of water consisting of primarily of SW I'll be leaner sooner - and that my friends makes me happy!!!! :)

Well, I better get going I need to train Flash & I have a lot on my to-do list as well. Have a good one!!!

Today's Diet:

I did well, but I didn't eat as often as I had hoped... busy day again! Anyway here's what I ate.

7:00 am SW, Crave, protein drink, vitamins

12:00 pm 6 egg whites scrambles, spinach salad with slivered almonds, SW

4:00 pm chicken breast, apple, SW

6:00 pm chicken, carrots, Crave, SW

9:00 pm protein drink, water

I feel good, I'm grateful for SW, it makes up for my low veggie intake! I love SW!!!

TIP OF THE DAY....

Do you have a skinny or fat refrigerator & pantry??? If you want to accomplish your weight loss goals then don't buy foods that will tempt you and sabotage your weight loss efforts. Instead, stock up on lots of fresh fruits & veggies. Have plenty of eggs, meats and low fat cheese. And if you have to have a snack go for air-popped popcorn without butter & salt - add a little light butter spray and you're set! It's loaded with fiber and fun to eat.

And be sure to drink plenty of water. Did you know that drinking up to a gallon of water a day will raise your metabolism? Add some SXinney Water and you have the perfect summertime beverage. So next time you go shopping think twice about what you put in your cart.

Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend. I was sick for most of it with a horrible head cold - I'm still recovering. But I had a wonderful weekend. After church my cute sister and her family & my brother came over to celebrate my husband's birthday. I wasn't up to doing it so they brought all the food including the cake and ice cream! They're so awesome! The kids were in heaven playing together and the horses had a ball watching them in the back yard. It was really nice. Then after my sweet parents came over to visit as well. It really was such a relaxing day. The weather was perfect - I'm so excited for summer I can hardly stand it! I have to admit I often wish I lived in southern Cal to be able to enjoy sunshine all year round - I truly live for the sun!

Well, I'm happy to report that I ate clean over the weekend. I generally allow myself to have a cheat meal or day (depending on my mood) usually on Sundays. But I didn't this time. I think it's because of the SXinney Water & Crave. Normally I splurge when I eat with my family, but I didn't even have the desire to! I was very pleased. And since I haven't been able to workout lately due to my fatigue and not feeling well, eating clean helps me retain my muscle definition. I have to say again how grateful I am for SW & C, it's much easier to stay lean now. It sooo cool!

Anyway, I better get my little ones up and ready for school. Have a great day! :)
