  • I think rest days are very important. That doesn't mean that you don't do anything. Sometimes on a rest day I'll still go for a walk, but a relaxing walk with a different mentality. And once a week I have an eat whatever the h I want day. Usually on Fridays because it's also my most physically active day. If you feel like…

  • thank you so much for sharing. I tried master cleanse a long time ago and after a few days got violently ill. You're message is really important for people to hear and you look AWESOME!
  • Try the website - WHFoods.com - World's Healthiest Foods. It's an amazing website with really easy and delicious recipes. Also, just browse some vegetarian websites for ideas. I really like Ohsheglows.com which is a vegan site but has great stuff. Good Luck.
  • I don't necessarily have cheat days, but every once in a while I feel like it's important not to care. Every once in a while I have to get out of healthy eating mode and just relax. But I get a ton of exercise daily (I walk dogs professionally and ride my bike to get everywhere!). Also you have to think about why you're…
  • I'm very active, and sometimes my "workouts" are my morning dog walks, then biking to and from places etc. My dog walks are usually almost two hours, (it's a great morning job) and if I want to do any abs work or strength training when I get home I need the extra energy.

I open em' both and eat em' like a tree chipper. "DADADADADADADA! Fig newton shavings comin' off the side. DADADADADADADA!!!" What…
  • I used to be a huge salt consumer. Try using other spices like chili, cumin, curry powder etc. You'll find that by adding other spices you don't really need to add any salt. Also salt, like sugar, is something that you don't need so much once you're not as used to it.
  • I go to a class with very little actual dancing. We basically warm up and then spend the whole time learning tricks and spins. I put the class in as gymnastics, but I only put it in as 50 minutes even though it's an hour because I feel like the warm up part is less intense. I also feel like it changes depending on my…
  • I renamed my meals to 5-11 am - 12pm - 4pm - 4pm -8pm and 8pm - 5am. From the time I wake up until I go to sleep whatever I eat counts for that day. I find that renaming the whole breakfast, lunch, dinner thing into your own categories helps a lot.
