Sweet Summer Time

Its getting to my favorite time of year, SUMMER is ALMOST HERE!!  Family, friends, gatherings, vacations, being on the water with the jet ski, the pool, loosing track of time while doing everything outside because its nice out.  Lets chat a minute about staying hydrated and eating while your out and about!  Hot summer days means you will sweat more loosing more salts in your body that your body needs.  Make sure to drink plenty of water while your outside and also some folks may want to look into Salt tablets so you can replenish your salts! A good rule of thumb is for every hour your outside ( being active ) you need 8 more OZ of water to take in, if your being inactive you still should add water to your daily intake 4 oz or so is a good starting point!  Also, make sure to eat frequent light meals during the summer if you plan on being outside for prolonged amounts of time.  Fruits, Veggies, Carbs and Proteins are essential to summer time, most of these can be packed ahead for snacks and so fourth.  I make turkey roll ups ( no cheese ), carrots go everywhere with me in the summer time, celery, cubed raw sweet potato are great!  Plan ahead for outings and make the most of your day!  Also, remember to UNPLUG yourself, forget that your phone exsists people, enjoy what life has to offer you with out your social media following you can post pictures about your day after your home just enjoy the moment!  ( yes this one is going into a lot of practice these days I simply don't care any longer.)

Women Supporting Other Women

I wonder what this world would look like if all women supported other women instead of bashing them constantly?  Lately this has been on my mind because I see it happen frequently and Im not gonna lie I can act like this and be just at judgmental sometimes myself so theres no sugar coating there.  Women are a very intriguing breed if you will call it that, theres so many different sides to a womans personality. What I want to know is are we programmed to be so vicious all the time?  Am I overly sensitive to the world where I notice this and Im like can we please stop with the constant cut downs ladies.  I can't take it anymore.  The fact is this, be friends with women who you can support because they have the same goals/ values and morals as you, IF they don't then don't support them but also don't be fake about it.  We can all learn to love people from a distant if we truly want the best for them, sometimes as human beings morals goal values ect don't add up and t

How You Feel About Yourself is an Inside Job, Make Yourself a Priority

Recently Ive noticed more and more how I feel about myself.  Im loving the progress in the gym, I love my businesses, I have a life that is truly wonderful ( yes I have bad days just like everyone else ) but in general Im extremely happy and if Im not I try and fix things or work on them until my end goal is reached.  Ive started to notice that the more I take care of myself the better I feel.  I have a weakness for clothes they are expensive but there is nothing like a great pair of jeans and a swipe of mascara that doesn’t make me a happy girl just something about it turns my day around always.  So how do you celebrate yourself?  Do you allow yourself that one sweet treat?  Pay yourself compliments?  Buy yourself flowers or clothes what ever your vice is remember to celebrate you because theres only one of you, take the time for yourself on a weekly basis regardless of how others feel about it silly or not if its important to you, you will make this a practice in your life.  It does

This Led Us to Our Invitro- Fertilization and Frozen Embryo Transfer

So it has taken my husband and I 5 years to get to this point in our fertility journey.  During these last 5 years Ive been told that Im Bi Polar ( nah i just have resting bitch face and have no time for bullshit sorry that imnot overly smiley it doesnt mean anything ), Im Depressed ( nope just sarcastic by nature ), Im Anxious ( i really am anxious though ) and multiple other things from Doctors in the area and they even tried to give me all the PILLS in the WORLD.  As we all may or may not know my husband loves to research things!  So the first thing to research was the GOITER in my neck basically my thyroid blew up and the reason it blew up was because to be honest I wasn’t taking care of myself I was at the gym every morning at 5 am I worked out for 2 hours.  Though I know how to eat ( im a nutrionist ) I was told crazy things by PERSONAL TRAINERS  ( they don’t have degrees y’all ) stop eating carbs ect.  However I never stopped eating the things I wanted, but all that working out
