Why you should focus on making yourself healthier and not what the scale or measurements say!

Focus on making yourself healthier and not on the weight you want to lose or were told you should lose.  It is almost guaranteed that as you keep making healthier decisions in your everyday life your body will also become healthier and thus you will weigh less.  It’s common for people to believe that weighing themselves every day, going on cleanses and diets will help them get the body they want.  Please listen carefully… it has been proven the more you weigh yourself and stress over the scale the less results you will see.  We all need to step back and reevaluate.  What is one healthy change you can do today and stick with for the rest of your life? This one change will go far and your body will change.  Once it becomes a habit it’s time to choose another healthy change.  Focus on HEALTH NOT WEIGHT LOSS!

Tips on changing:
-          Ask yourself before everything you eat… is this going to make me more healthy or less healthy?
-          Start with just drinking enough water in a day. This one healthy change will improve skin, eyes, nails, digestion and overall health!
-          Take 5 deep breathes before you choose what your next food choice is going to be.
.     Be realistic, there is absolutely no way to be healthy without eating enough vegetables. How can you bridge this gap in your life?
      Make sure to be eating every 3 to 4 hours to keep your metabolism going and cravings down. 
-          Get enough sleep each night. Without sleep your body craves more sugary foods and puts a negative stressor on your body.
-          Try Relaxing! Your body needs rest and relaxation just as much as it needs movement.

Homemade dark chocolate peanut butter cups

Chocolate is great, but chocolate mixed with peanut butter is even better! Reese's peanut butter cups are made with a lot of added sugars and junk. Try these raw guilt free peanut butter cups for a dessert this holiday season! 

Chocolate layer ingredients: 
Coconut oil

Unsweetened almond milk
