Monday Motivation!
Hi Dolls! If you are lucky enough to live in paradise you are already in those shorts and bikinis! If not, you are at least thinking and anticipating beautiful weather....soon! This usually jump starts your motivation knowing that skin will be showing soon enough and you want it to look its best. I've got a few tips for you to consider today. Your diet is the #1 way to ensure you are at your best. Lean protein, fresh fruit and veggies are ALL on the menu. Don't skip meals, you'll eventually over eat. Exercise for the pleasure and joy that you know will come ... especially when those shorts and bikinis fit the way you want. Drink tons of water. Hydrated skin looks and feels healthier. Remember this isn't just about a workout or diet.....its life! Make good choices....
Get out there and kick it today. Check back tomorrow for Tone - it up Tuesday! xoxo
