Blast Fat Fast Most everyone I know who wants to lose weight fast goes on a crazy diet for a few weeks hoping the scale will drop dramatically. Some reach they're goals only to gain the pounds back and more only a few weeks later, while others give up within the first couple of days. Diets don't work! They may at first but in the end the fat soon ends up right where it started and then some... That becomes a vicious cycle of self sabotage and deep frustrations. Losing weight isn't as difficult as it may seem, it all comes down to understanding how the body works to supercharge your metabolism to blast fat fast. Eating whole foods every few hours will keep your body running at optimal levels. By eating lean protein, a complex carb , fresh veggies and salads you'll turn your body into a energy efficient machine. Eating at least 5- 7 servings of protein, 1 fruit, 1 complex carb , 5 -7 servings of veggies & salads along with 1 T of Omega's will jump start your metab

Sunday's My Favorite Family Day Today was a wonderful day... I woke up to rain hitting the windows, it was a perfect day to sleep in and snuggle... It was heavenly to wake up to the sounds of our children talking and laughing as they made a hot breakfast together. Generally on Sundays we go to church, but today we stayed home and watched General Conference on TV. I love learning from our church leaders, I always feel uplifted and inspired to improve my life to become the best I can be. I also love General Conference weekend (they're held each Oct & April) because we spend the weekend together as a family. We stay in our pj's all day playing games and baking delicious meals together, it's a bit of heaven on earth. =) Today my youngest wanted to bake pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, (he loves to bake) so we made our favorite cookies, and I must say that they turned out yummy! I always use fresh whole wheat flour that I grind with a grinder, it makes for extra nu

I'm passionate about motivating others to improve their quality of life by assisting them to balance the body, mind & spirit.
