SPRING IS UPON US!

Good morning friends!  Did you miss me last Thursday???  Yes, last week I took the week off from blogging...crazy, isn't it?!  I think I may start blogging only 2 times a month, but who knows!  Maybe I'll continue to do it EVERY week.  It just depends on whether I have something important to say or not.  Which any one who knows me knows I ALWAYS have something important to say when it concerns being your FITTEST and HEALTHIEST you can be.  So what am I blogging quickly about today you ask?!  SPRING.IS.UPON.US!!

Are YOU ready for Spring?  Or are you already done with your "New Year's Resolution" to get back in shape?  Look...you don't need a New Years Resolution to FINALLY decide to make your life a healthy one!  You need a DAY...call it MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY and yes....SUNDAY.  Choose the day YOU decide YOU are ready to be the fittest you've ever been.

I myself absolutely LOVE working out (I know, even my husband thinks I'm crazy sometimes when it comes to my PASSION for BURNING and EARNING!) and everytime I take a look at my son and how much he loves to come into my fitness studio and workout with his Mommy, it reminds me of the EXAMPLE I am making for my son.  Fitness should be a WAY OF LIFE...not a FAD that you stick to once in a while or that you do for a day and then go celebrate you worked out with a DRIVE-THRU burger or a OVER PRICED HIGH CALORIE trendy coffee drink.  Fuel your body properly!  Fuel your kid(s) body properly!  Do NOT reward yourself for losing weight, inches and/or bodyfat with FOOD.  You are NOT a dog!  Reward yourself with that outfit you've been eyeing and can FINALLY fit into!  A movie you have been wanting to see!  Anything but food!  As a trainer, nothing bothers me more than hearing people say "I DESERVE this HIGH SODIUM, HIGH FAT, HIGH CALORIE (blank) because I worked out today!"  Really?!  Okay...

Here's the deal, ENJOY life!  Don't put yourself on a FAD DIET and then go back to unhealthy eating habits once you've lost the weight.  Enjoy the little things in MODERATION but ALWAYS, ALWAYS keep your EYE ON THE PRIZE!

MY prize is the fact that I've got a BIRTHDAY coming up next month that I'm excited about and I want to look and feel better than I did 10 years ago!  And honestly, I have MORE energy now than I did have 10 years ago and that was before I even had a child.  FITNESS IS A WAY OF LIFE!  So start working on YOUR fitness goal today because SPRING IS UPON US and don't you want to feel and look your best?! ;-)

Before I close...oh and step off my SOAP BOX (haha!) I want to wish my FABULOUS, BEAUTIFUL, KIND and YES....ATHLETIC little boy Pry'nce an EARLY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!  My "baby" turns 6 years old TOMORROW and I just can't believe how time has flied!  So happy birthday to my special, fun boy Pry'nce!

For the rest of you, I say make this a Happy, Healthy week and I will blog with you again SOON!  I'm off to Hot Yoga...NAMASTE....

As Always...Stay Fit and Happy!
