Workouts Are Always The Same....

Your body gets accustomed to same exercise. When it is no longer a challenge for your body it doesn't have to work so hard and then you end up burning less calories.


What To Do......

Change it up! Turn up the speed or intensity on the treadmill then, tun it back down. Do kick boxing instead of aerobics. Give your body a new challenge or a more intense version of the same old thing!

Cheapo

We went to my father in laws house yesterday for dinner, he always puts on a great meal. He made Roast Beef, Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy. Veggies too of course! He always makes a ton of food and it cracks me up sometimes. See this man is the king of cheap when it comes to somethings. Some of the stuff he has is great quality that he got at a bargain and some stuff in not so good. His newest prize, his cheap eyeglasses and boy is he proud of himself! The more money he saves the happier he is and those glasses, he got at a great deal!

You Celebrate Workouts..........With Candy!

Women tend to eat 120 more calories after intense exercise than after light exercise that burned the same amount of calories.


What to do......

You worked out way to hard in the gym to go an gobble down a bunch of junk that will just ruin all the hard work you just did. So keep a healthy snacks in your gym bag or car.

Try this, 1/4 cup dried cranberries, 2 tablespoons of shelled sunflower seeds and toss then in a zippy bag. You will have the protien your body needs after a workout and the carbs to satisfy your hunger. Cranberries also contain an antioxidant that will help with post workout inflammation.

It's Complete

The plumber cam yesterday and finished installing the new vanity and plumbing fixtures in our bathroom yesterday. I was so excited for something new, even thought it is not my house. I wonder what if anything will be next? Maybe a new kitchen floor?? Yeah right, the floor is not that bad, I just don't like the color! I know Joe the Landlord will laugh at me if I ask him to change that!

You Work Late.....

We all love the extra cash that you earn from working overtime, I usually spend mine on myself. A study in the International Journal of Obesity reports that women who work 40-plus hours a week are more likely to gain weight. Yikes, is that why I am over weight?..nahhh. Desk jockies, I am one of those are more likely to eat fast food and not have the motivation to exercise. I don't eat out but I certainly don't feel like exercising. As a women your body was made to hang on to fat when we experience stress, especially chronic stress.

What to do....

Figure out when you are most likely to hit a slump then do something playful or soothing. Have fun with your officemates who may also hit a slump. Toss a ball around the office, just make sure that it is a soft one!

Pearly Whites Not So White?

Are you teeth not as white as you would like them to be? Has years of poor brushing, coffee, tea or smoking finally showing? If you are feeling self conscious about your not so pearly whites then why not ask your dentist about getting your teeth whitened and have that beautiful smile restored.

We all know good oral care includes brushing and flossing twice a day and visiting your dentist twice a year. Sometimes cleanings are not enough to keep those teeth as white as you may want them. There are a couple of different ways to whiten your teeth, you can have do it in office or use a system that consists of trays to do teeth whitening at home. Your dentist will let you know what system will work best for you. I personally have never had my teeth whitened but most certainly have considered it. I smoke and drink coffee and have done it for years so I know my teeth are not as white as they should or could be.

Not hard to tell which one is the before picture and the after. This is what your teeth could like before and after teeth whitening! Looks pretty good doesn't it?! Makes me want to call my dentist right now. Remember to talk to your dentist at your next cleaning to see if whitening is something that is an option for you.
