Welcome back, now get back on track!

Good morning followers!! 

I am truly sorry I have not posted in WAY too long, but just like getting back on track with a healthy lifestyle, you have to start somewhere. 

Between school and balancing my own life, I have gotten lost in the blogging world, but I have found my way back to motivate you all once again. 

"Weight loss is like driving: If you ever veer off the road, just make a U-turn and head back in the right direction." 

This quote not only applies to weight loss, but also to a healthy lifestyle, workout plan or many other things. Nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. If you have a bad diet day or skip the gym, don't let it ruin what you have been working for. Chalk it up to a bad day and jump back on tomorrow! 

Don't let one slip up or bad day keep you from reaching your goals. A new lifestyle is hard to adopt at first, but once you accomplish it, you will be so happy you stuck with it. 

Start Today! Motivate yourself & others around you!

Stay Fit!

A really yummy healthy dessert for the warmer weather is grilled pineapple with a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt on top.

When trying to eat healthy, you may get bored with the constant salads and grilled chicken, but there are ways to make eating healthy delicious, especially in the dessert world.

To make this healthy, sweet dessert, cut all the skin off of the pineapple, but leave the leafy stem on, leaving the stem will help when you try to grill the pineapple. Then, throw the pineapple on the grill and rotate it until its just a little grilled on each side, like shown in the picture. Once it looks grilled to perfection, take it off the grill, cut it into slices and core the hard part out of the middle.

To finish it up, place it on a plate and add a scoop of ice cream, or a healthier option like frozen yogurt, on top and enjoy your healthy and delicious summer-time dessert.

Top 5 Rules of a Cheat Meal!

Cheat meals are allowed and you can still reach your goals. Actually, they may be important in the journey to a healthier lifestyle.

Everyone believes that eating bad for one meal ruins your diet, but that is not true! One bad meal will not, I repeat, will not, make you gain weight back that you have lost, unless you do NOT know how to control yourself. Control is key!

Here are 5 tips to help you with cheat eating. They are very helpful and all extremely true and valid points to bring you a successful indulgent meal.
1. NO GUILT. You have to enjoy what you're eating! You made the choice to eat it, so savor the flavor and if you feel a little worse after it, make it up in your next workout. Do an extra couple of reps or run and extra half-mile. It's not the end of the world!

2. PLAN. If you plan when to have your cheat meals, you will less likely to cheat the rest of the week. For example, if you're going to cheat for Sunday dinner, make sure you tell yourself that when you go reach for that double chocolate chip muffin Wednesday morning...

3. PORTION CONTROL. This is a HUGE part of weight-loss and healthy living. You can be the healthiest person out there, but if you eat more than you should and don't control your portions, it will only negatively affect you. A cheat meal is a treat for you, its not a ticket for a junk food binge day. Be mindful of that, because even when it tastes really good, you shouldn't go for multiples.

4. LIMIT THE NUMBER. You should allow yourself about 2-3 cheat meals per week. This allows you to remain a healthy-eater, but not cut yourself out of real-life eating. If you always deprive yourself of what you want, you are destine to fail.

5. MOVE ON. So now that you have had your cheat meal, think about how great it was, but also think how great you look because of your change in lifestyle, to one that's healthier. Remember that once you have one bad meal, it doesn't warrant you to go off and revert back to your old, unhealthy ways. Love every minute of your meal, and when its over, its over. Move on and take it out of your thoughts, and replace those with how much you love the feeling after achieving a new PR at the gym. Those are my fav!

Follow these steps when having your cheat meal and you will learn to control yourself in a whole new way!
