Frozen Grapes

Healthy Snack



Grapes are packed with antioxidants including, vitamins C, K and beta-carotene. Vitamin C plays major role in preventing infection and also promotes healthy bones teeth and gums.


Tips:
Frozen grapes taste better when they're very ripe so I usually leave them in the fridge for a few days before I freeze them (this makes them sweeter)

  • Freeze whole grapes as a refreshing treat.  
  • Frozen grapes are a great snack for kids and a nice alternative to popsicles. ( My niece Trinity loves them)
  • Frozen grapes are the perfect late night snack and they satisfy your sweet tooth without all the extra sugar in candy.

Give this refreshing treat a try. Enjoy!

Healthy Dining

Healthy Food Choices 



I know how tempting it can be when friends invite you out for dinner at your favorite restaurant with all your favorite foods that will probably work against your fitness goals...lol. Dining out at your favorite spot doesn't have to leave you feeling guilty and working extra hard the next day to burn it all off. 


Here are a couple tips that will satisfy your taste buds and not sabotage your fitness goals at the same time.


1. Portion control
Split your meal in half and take a portion to go.

2. Skip the soda and wine
When soda and wine breakdown, it's stored as sugar in your body. Try drinking water only. This will give you a bit more room to indulge on your meal.

3. Get dressings and sauces on the side
A restaurant can make something as healthy as a salad unhealthy if it's loaded with too much dressing. 

4. Switch up the menu with substitutes and special requests
As we all know life is about give and take... eating healthy is no different. If you want a 
burger, instead of fries on the side, opt for veggies.


I hope these tips help. Share what's been working for you. Leave your comments below.

21 Day Sexy Abs Challenge (Day 13) Flat Abs

 Best Foods for Flat Abs





Everyone wants flat abs, but the question is are you willing to do what it takes to achieve them! Soooooooo many people go to the gym and workout extra hard for 1 maybe even 2 hours everyday and don't see the results they hoped for. 

Most of the time this is due to poor diet. Getting flat sexy abs require more than just doing a few crunches here and there.... your diet must be on point to see desired results.!!!

There are a ton of delicious foods you can eat to achieve those abs you've always dreamed of, but here are a few of my favs that keep me on track :


1. Yogurt. Greek or plain





2. Almonds

3. Beans and legumes




4. Spinach and other leafy greens


5. Apples and berries



Know of other foods that are good for achieving flat abs? I'd Love to hear from your. Leave your comments below
