I apologize for such a delay in between posts, but schedules get very busy..... that is life and that is good! I love having things to do and being able to do them!
To continue on with my "letter of the post" deal! I do believe that the letter for today is F!
What FUN yes?
Well.... Lets begin with a little Fitness.... well would ya look at that
F is for Fitness...
Lets talk a bit the importance and how glorious fitness really is.....
Participating in regular fitness activity is so great for helping you feel good both mentally and physically.
Exercise can result in a decrease of stress and anxiety.
It can also increase your energy level and increase metabolism. How great is that?
who doesn't love a quicker metabolism?
Regular fitness activity can really help with your self-esteem too! You feel better about yourself and getting in shape. What a great feeling! When you stick with it, and see results, the confidence boost is so fantastic. At least from my own experiences. When I first started regular exercise, and stuck with it... I knew there was no going back!
Not only is it great for your physical health, but fitness is also great for your mental health too!
Along with the decrease in anxiety and stress, it's a great way to meet people! Especially if you're a people person, having friends to workout with or do anything physical really is the best!
Also, it's not all about the gym... fitness can be any physical activity really... any....
you can make it FUN.... and that helps with the whole sticking with it part.....
so playing games, hanging with a friend, anything really, make it into a fitness activity and boom Fitness Fun!
here is a bit more INFO that goes along with the more scientific aspects as to why fitness and exercise is so very good for us... just in case you were wondering :)
Okay moving on.... Lets talk a bit of eats!
F is for FRUIT!
Let me express to you how much I love fruit...
Well not to the extent that I would do what MR. Kutcher here did...
an extreme fruit diet that landed him in the hospital....
here is an article about that....
:-/
Well I don't love it to the extent that I would eat only fruit.... but I sure do love it....
There are so many great benefits you can get from eating fruit... lots of antioxidants and all that jazz... but I am sure many of you know much of this health information already hehe....
I love it most because when I crave something sweet (which is pretty much a constant occurrence in my life!) Fruit is the perfect go-to snack because it satisfies that sweet tooth without ruining the diet. LOVE it!
"Simple Green Fruit Smoothie"
- 1 Cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
-1 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt
-1 Cup Frozen Berries
- 1/2 Banana
-1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
-A few handfuls of spinach
-Blend all these ingredients together until smooth, and enjoy!
I love smoothies so much because they are the perfect go to snack for any busy schedule. So quick to prepare and you can take them on-the-go.... just make sure you check your teeth to make sure you avoid any seeds!
And last but not least.. Just a bit about me
