Quinoa (Keen-Wah) as a snack?

Looking for a healthy snack while on the go... I found these passing through the peanut aisle in a local Walgreens...

I was very excited to come across these because I have been looking for something new and different other than nuts to snack on that was healthy. Quinoa is very good for you, it's a healthy whole grain that has all 9 amino acids which makes it a complete protein. It's also high in fiber and is known as a superfood... Which makes this a perfect snack. So stop by your local Walgreens or health food store to pick up some of these Quinoa ( Keen-Wah) snacks... Always read your nutrition facts for serving size because they are very addictive... "IheartKeenwah".

The Perfect Diet Plan

Is there a such thing as a perfect diet plan? All I know is, the less calories you take in if you are wanting to lose weight. The more you have to take in if you are building muscle.. But the "perfect" meal plan NO!.. Every meal plan does not work for everybody.. You must go by a low calorie meal plan that works for you.

Different trainers do different things, and depending on how close of a relationship you have with your personal trainer if you have one, you will not exceed those goals until you take the initiative and push yourself to the limits for yoursel...

Day 1 - 7 day detox back to fitness and weight loss journey

Today, I started Day 1 of my 7 day detox to cleanse my body and to give myself a jumpstart back on my fitness and weight loss journey. Well, how did it go? I flopped!!! My motivation was there but I was starving by the time I made it home form work... I drunk my ACV and Green smoothie for breakfast, My cabbage soup for lunch and had plenty of water, but I have to get my body back to this lifestyle. I have taken a long break because it has been so much going on within this past year from March 2016 I broke my toe and a lot in my personal life has been going on. So stress eating began and even though the foods I was eating were healthy choices, too much healthy foods can pack on pounds as well especially when majority of them are high carbs and you're not working out. My goal is to lose 60 pounds by my birthday which is on September 9th with a well balanced meal plan (meal prepping) and exercise 4-5 days a week. So please continue to follow my journey with me for great tips on how ...
