Day 21 of New Year New You


Happy Saturday everyone!

 So word on the street is there's a storm coming, huh. Well I guess we can't complain much we haven't had an awful winter so far and there are about 58 more days until spring. I'm in Rochester there's already snow up here and man is it COLD!

So here we go time for Day 21.

Fitness:
Take the day off because you might be doing some shoveling soon. In case you haven't figured it out rest is your friend. I know some of you are doing more then the challenge which means you need to repair.

 Ways to benefit the body during your off day:
  • Take a nap
  • Get into a Hot Epsom salt bath
  • Did you ever get that massage I suggested you schedule?
  • Do some restorative yoga poses
Just give the body time to rejuvenate, doing this on Sunday is always an option especially if you absolutely love 9am Zumba or 530 Spin.

Food:
Hopefully you made it out to get the ingredients for the Breakfast Hermits. They sound so tasty and yes I'm in love with the idea of grabbing a cookie and going out the door in the morning.

Don't have time to prepare for next week with the cookies? Take a look in your cabinet and be sure to have a healthy option ready for Monday morning, oatmeal, cream of wheat, egg white omelette etc.

Self Growth:
Going grocery shopping this weekend? Cruise the aisle for healthy snack and put two different ones in your basket. Be sure to pick up enough to take to work and have at home.
  • Rice cakes
  • Trail mix
  • Granola
  • Yogurt with fruit to satisfy your sweet tooth
  • Protein bars
  • Apples and peanut butter
These are just a few options to consider. Read the labels and be sure to watch out for hidden calories in high sodium products or trans fat.

Until tomorrow,
Taj
