Tips for you!

Although my first passion is running, I enjoy sports, fitness, and nutrition. I have created a blog to give everyone tips on all I know and will know. I will also be taking classes posting about trails/hikes ect., foods that are good for you or taste good that are low in calories, and what to eat and what not to eat.

Eating Habits!

I have never been one to eat alot of fruits and vegetables. I ate what I thought I needed and no more! I have been wanting to loose 5 pounds for along time, I tried counting calories, watching everything I ate, etc... But could not drop these last 5 pounds! When my Husband started to loose weight, he started a nutrition plan (Eating more fruits and vegetables)! I decided to do the same thing, well needless to say, I dropped my 5 pounds quickly and I feel a ton better. I think that nutrition is a big part of loosing weight, I think you will loose more weight if you eat more natural foods and less processed foods.

I'm with you on that. Breezy is on an eating program that is starch and a bunch of fruits and veggies. She is only a size 5 now. [with her 5'9'' frame, she is long and lean.She says she feels GREAT! Almost, she convinces me. Maybe, next week:] ]

Oh so true! Processed foods are the devil. I love fruits & vegetables, but could alway use more in my meal plan.

True that! I've been trying to just cut out the High Fructose Corn Syrup - it's everywhere!!!! And, i'm trying to cook all of my own foods, and I now use UNbleached flour. What a difference!

Ahh..I"m so glad I found your blog! I've got about 10ish pounds I'd love to lose. You are SO giving me the motivation (not to mention the tools) to reach my goal. Most fitness places seem more geared towards those who have lots to lose not us gals who have just a little bit. Thank you so much!!
