My Pink Passion

For those who know me, knows that my favorite color is pink... So why not make it into a healthy drink... I actually tried my first pink juice @ Peeled juice bar and I found it to be very refreshing...


So I created my very own version of it but as a smoothie... I call it "Pink Passion"... The star ingredient of this smoothie are beets. YES!!! you heard it right BEETS!!!

Beets cleanses the liver, purifies the blood, it is also a anti-inflammatory, and a great source of iron.. And by my being anemic, this is a smoothie that I will benefit from drinking everyday.. I know some of you may think Beets, "YUCK"... But don't knock it 'til you try it... This is one smoothie that you will be wanting more of and it will also give you a boost of energy.



Pink Passion Smoothie

1 small beet
Frozen Pineapples
1 pear
Fresh Ginger
Coconut Water


Combine all ingredients in your blender until smooth and enjoy this beautiful concoction of pink passion... (If you all are wondering the pink color comes from the mixture of the beets with the pineapple). Drink one of these for a snack instead of an unhealthy snack and you will surely see the difference within your body... Enjoy!!!


OAN: Please go pink for breast cancer... Everyday is breast awareness, and all women should have a mammogram even if there isn't any family history. There are many websites that you can go on to make a donation, volunteer or even join some of the great marathons to help raise money for the cause...   One of them being Susan G Komen's website, where you can register for the upcoming 5K event on Mother's Day.

BORN DAY!!!!!

Today, I celebrate the life of my new baby who was born today October 29, 2013... MY BLOG!!!! I'm so excited!!! This is something that I have been contemplating for years and now I've finally decided to allow the world to follow me on my personal weight loss and healthy lifestyle journey... It has been a very tough and long journey for me, I've decided to stop hiding and share with others who are also going through the struggle of losing weight, or hating to exercise, eating healthy and sometimes even gaining a few pounds back when they have lost the weight... It is an emotional roller coaster for most of us and I want to be here for those who feel that they are out here alone and just to let them know that they are not. You may also help me in ways that you don't even know... So let's get it!!! Down Size it!!!
