The Healthy Lifestyle is Payin' Off!

I'm lovin' this Healthy Lifestyle! Eating right and drinking heavily (I'm JOKING) is what life is all about. Remember that puttin' on your pretty can make a girl feel like a million bucks so ...get out there and put on your dancin' shoes. Take one day at a time and make it count!

My two favorite tricks regarding healthy eating is when you have a sweet craving...go for the FAGE yogurt mixed with brown sugar Splenda and some berries! Tons of protein to keep you feeling full and it taste delicious!

The other is when you feel like munching (especially during football season when everybody else is eating all of the chips and salsa) you can cut up some carrots ( STOP LOOKING AT THE SCREEN AND THINKING ...RIIIIIIIIGHT!!!! ) and dip them in some Jalapeno Yogurt Dip from Costco. You will NOT feel deprived and you won't be eating tons of calories and fat!!!

Just give it a try and complain about it later. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!!!

AND THE BEAT GOES ON!!!

Sugar on Sunday? Why not?...but now it's MY WAY!

NO, NO, NO! I have not given up my HEALTHY LIFESTYLE! But do I still need a little Sugar on Sunday? Well, yes... in some form or another. And of course, it's after morning mass.

This recipe is from Emily Zaler. She is a fitness model, author and CEO of the EZ Whey Protein Powder, LLC. I heard of her through the webseries that I am on ... Art of Fitness. It airs next month...HURRAY!!! Boy, do I look different!!! Check out the trailer on the network,

Healthy Power TV.

Her recipes are AMAZING. I will meet her next month at Natalie Jill's house (my trainer) and then we will be best friends, I'm sure!!! She is absolutely gorgeous but more importantly than that, she bakes with this new addiction that I have acquired...PROTEIN POWDER. It completely satiates you and is so versatile. You know that I have been mixing it with Fage yogurt for a dessert for quite some time but baking with it? Well, here is the recipe for the...

Chocolate Peaunut Butter Cups

1 Scoop Chocolate Protein Powder

1 Tablespoon Natural Peanut or Almond Butter

3 ounces water

1-2 packets of Stevia ( I use Splenda)

Optional...a little cocoa powder

Blend all ingredients together and freeze in muffin ins for about an hour or until solid. They pop out just like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups !
