Breakfast
NEVER skip breakfast!!! It really is the most important meal of the day! I like to have a heavier breakfast so that I am more full for the rest of the day, I find I eat lighter for the rest of my meals too! You will use the carbs as energy for the rest of your day, and burn it off! I love eating granola & fruit with almond milk! Also... kick coffee in the butt, ESPECIALLY if you drink it with milk/cream and sugar!!! Drink green tea :) It helps your metabolism, AND has more caffeine than coffee! Start your day off right!

Love for Lilee
This overwhelms me with joy, and yet a bit of sadness. The strength in this family is amazing. A 3 year old girl, named Lilee who lives in my hometown of Abbotsford BC has been given 3 months to live due to brain cancer. Her mother, Chelsey, uploaded this blog post this morning. Take the time to read it. This story is amazing.
Stay strong Lilee, you beautiful girl <3

The "no regret" cookie
EVERYBODY. YOU NEED TO STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND MAKE THESE COOKIES! these only take MAX 15 minutes, and I swear you will be in heaven!! I took an original recipe and changed it to my own, so please tell me what you think!
1 cup natural crunchy peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
Egg whites or egg replacer equivalent to 1 large egg
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt (I added only a couple dashes of salt for less sodium!)
1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup flax seeds
one handful of pumpkin seeds
one handful of sunflower seeds
one handful of chopped pecans
one handful of chopped walnuts
Now mix everything together and if you want add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips (I didn't add any)
Get a cookie sheet, line it with foil, and make cookie size lumps with the batter! Its going to be runny at first but don't worry they will turn out.
Bake for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees. Take out and let cool for 10 minutes and let harden.
This makes about 12 good sized cookies
BEST THINGS YOU WILL EVER TASTE I PROMISE! And they are healthy for you!

Excuses?
NO EXCUSES! Vacation? No gym? No time? I CALL BULLSHIT!
Go on a run around the place you are vacationing in! Maybe you'll find a yummy smoothie place to take 5 in!
Pinterest, Instagram, Youtube, all GREAT for "no gym" workouts! they are basically giving you personal training FOR FREE!
Do some squats while brushing your teeth. Tan in the Stand Up and do some calf raises. Do some pushups while waiting for you water to boil!
Easy peasy lemon squeezy :)
I'm in Osoyoos BC right now. I've been doing workouts from my Women's Health magazine! I also just went on a run around what I like to call, the "seawall" of Osoyoos!

Start a goal
I started out with making a goal. I decided I wanted to try out for the BC Lions Cheerleading team! I knew I had some self-bettering to do, so that was my goal. WHAT'S YOUR GOAL? It can be little, but thats where you have to start! Work towards it. When you accomplish that goal, (AND YOU WILL) make a new one, and the ball keeps rolling :)
