Some things are OK

It's OK...
- to only have a short run in the afternoon yesterday. Just getting out and doing SOMETHING counts.
- to be excited about going to help a friend pack tomorrow because I'm doing it SANS KIDS!
- to scream and cry because I found a scorpion crawling on me. (True story)
- to be making my meal plan and shopping list the day we're going shopping.
- that I indulged a little too much last weekend in honor of my birthday.
- to be a little freaked out about being 25 now...
- to turn the TV on for a couple of hours to occupy the kids until I can REALLY get moving.
- to flat out ask you to come *like* Kas Fitness on Facebook!
- that I'm asking you to go read about Shakeology by clicking this and seriously consider buying in the next few days for my Challenge Group! (We'll start April 9th and drink Shakeology every single day for 15 days) Remember to order AutoShip (Home Direct) for free shipping! 

Top Ten Smart Swaps

EATING HEALTHY IS TOO HARD!!!

Well sure it is if you do a huge overhaul and expect to stick to a strict diet with no wiggle room. If your idea of "eating healthier" involves throwing out all of your favorite foods and refusing to eat chocolate ever again...then it's no wonder you've failed in the past.
Yes this works for some people but MOST people need baby steps.

Here are 10 EASY swaps to make that will help you lose weight.

1) Give up one can of soda for 1 glass of water per day.

2) Instead of chips and dip try carrots and hummus!

3) Have an orange instead of orange juice! (FIBER)

4) Shakeology instead of Jamba Juice!

5) Vinaigrette instead of Ranch or Thousand Island (or any other cream based dressing)!

6) Quinoa instead of rice...it's even good in casseroles!

7) Salsa on your burger instead of ketchup.

8) Mustard on your sandwich instead of mayo.

9) Try a small piece of dark chocolate instead of a large piece of milk chocolate.

10) Olive oil instead of vegetable oil is another good one. Olive oil has so many more good fats. Or try coconut oil! 


Seriously, small things add up!! And it's the little steps that lead to big steps!

It's OK Again!

It's okay....
- to not workout when you're having kidney pain.
- to be SUPER EXCITED about starting to earn a real income.
- to feel excited about ordering Tropical Strawberry Shakeology.
- to need large amounts of caffeine to get through the day (right?)
- to want to pass out with exhaustion at 2pm (parenting!)
- to actually be looking forward to swimsuit season.
- to spend most of your new income on debts and other essentials.
But it's also okay to blow small amounts of money on frivolous stuff.

Confessions...

Linking up with a new blog!



I confess...
I only worked out a couple of times this week. I've been dealing with sick kids, teething kids, and been sick myself. Blah.
I confess...
I've totally been craving JUNK all week long. Especially pizza. What's up the pizza cravings?I had a burger last night. It wasn't as good as I wanted. Sad day.
I confess...
I didn't have my Shakeology every day.I truly regret that. I feel SO much better when I drink it.
I confess...
I yelled more than I should have at my kids/dog. Sleep deprivation is an ugly thing!
I confess...
I planned dinner at the last possible minute.It wasn't as well-balanced as I like.

It's Okay

My friend Sarah Fitness did it and it's a really really cool idea...So here I am (I'm always cool after the fact)




It's okay....
- To laugh after getting on to your kids if it was really funny...(my son unrolled toilet paper all over the kitchen. what did I yell? "If I wanted a ferret I would have bought one!!!")
- To not workout when you're horribly sleep deprived. 
- To stray from natural remedies if it means getting some sleep. 
- To stop in the middle of this blog post to hug a baby.
- To be so tired that you can't finish a blog post...
