A resource for tips on nutrition, fitness, recipes, and active lifestyles!
Trends and fads set the landscape for what and how we eat. Everyone seems to have a list of “good” vs. “bad” foods and most often it is based on what they hear, read, and see. Our diets consist of 3 macronutrients- protein, carbohydrate, and fat. In the past, fat has been the main culprit related to the incidence of heart disease, high cholesterol, obesity and weight gain. But wait, not all fats are bad.

If you’re wondering how it’s going now that I’m back to work, I think my lack of presence on my blog and social media channels should be a little indication of that! It’s been BUSY. And that’s from someone who hates when people talk about how “busy” they are all the time. I feel like I’m constantly go-go-go and when the weekend rolls around, I just want to lay around, snuggle my girls, and get our house in order again after a crazy week.

Some days I dream about just being able to stay home and chill on a weekday morning or afternoon with my son. However, there is almost no “staying home” for myself and my busy toddler. He is as active as they come and wants to be out of the house running around, exploring, and playing. I love this about him, but it also means that I’m on-the-go most of the day.
