From Carilu to You!
Healthquest 2009 - Live 100% FAD Free!
"I will be taking a walk down the grocery isle with you, sneaking into your pantry, refrigerator and cupboards, driving with you through the fast food line and spending time in your kitchen. It’s all about Food! The emotional struggles, time management issues, but ultimately it’s about you facing food choices everyday to fuel your body. Let’s learn the truth about food and find Nutrition Peace. It’s not complicated, nor scary, and you will be amazed at the simple skills you will learn to decrease your bodyfat and inches, with that ultimate Healthquest goal of nourishing your body to fend off disease.
Here are a few suggestions for shrinking your own storage sites:
#1 Eat Breakfast. Did you know on average adults who skip breakfast can gain approx. 10-12 pounds of fat.
#2 Eat Real Food. Consume foods that do not have an ingredient list. An Orange is an Orange.
#3 Lean into your lifestyle changes. Be patient and take small steps. If you have not been a breakfast eater, start out with a mini goal this week of eating breakfast 4 times. But please don’t beat yourself up if you only got in three. That is three more than before! Don’t give up and realize small diversions from your goals, which I like to call “Hiccups”, should not give you permission to sabotage all your future eating choices.
#4 Your body will give up what it no longer needs. It takes 21 days to change your taste buds. As you consume nutrient dense foods (foods that are full of Vitamins, Minerals, Phytochemicals, Antioxidants and Fiber) you will find it easier to eat healthy. Your body is actually being fed real nutrients now and the cravings will start to diminish! Anyone for breakfast? 3/4 cup of Oatmeal, 1Tbs of Brown Sugar, 23 Almonds and a Banana. How about a snack? An Apple with Mozzarella String Cheese, or a small box of Raisins with one ounce of Walnuts! Get started today!"

I loved seeing part of your workout with Carter on Tuesday afternoon. What a workout! The rain was pouring down outside as the sweat was pouring out of all you strong women. I had a request to put a menu on my Blog Site, this is what 5-6 mini meals looks like in a day. Meal #1: 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1 banana, 1/2 cup of nonfat milk, 1 slice of whole wheat bread and 1 Tbsp. peanut butter. Meal #2: 1 cup nonfat or low fat yogurt with 1/2 cup blueberries. Meal #3: 1 cup vegetable soup, 1 oz. multi-grain roll, 1 apple. Meal #4: 1 cup raw vegetables with 2 Tbs. of Hummas. Meal #5: 4 oz broiled salmon, 1/ cup mashed sweet potato, 1 cup fresh spinach salad, 1/2 cup pineapple slices. Meal #6 (optional) 1 oz graham crakers, 1 Tbsp. peanut butter and 1 cup of milk. Make sure you measure your foods to make sure you are not underestimating your intake. Most people if they are overweight will underestimate their intake by 40% and overestimate their activity and steps per day by 40%. Know your numbers: Calories in and Calories out.

Hi Carilu!
What a pleasant surprise to see you walk in to D-1 this morning. It was great having a cheerleader on the sidelines as we were swinging those weights up and down the field ~ and then to receive treats when we were done ~ Thank you so much for going the extra mile to check on everyone and offer words of encouragement! It is greatly appreciated by all!!
Blessings,

Is there a brand/type of peanut butter you recommend?
Thanks!
