LISTEN UP FITBLR GIRLS AND BOYS! This amazing Super Food is blowing my mind!!! GOJI BERRIES! Check out this article from Naturalginger.com

Well known for their effects on wellbeing and longevity. These delicious berries can help to enhance mood and increase positivity. This may seem like a far fetched claim but when you think about how much nutrition is packed into these little guys, there’s not question that they would have a positive impact on your emotional standing. As noted in the quote below, these berries have a synonymous relation to longevity and anti-aging. This is related to my next point.
Jam packed with antioxidants to keep you healthy and young. Antioxidants are the nutrients that work together to fight off free radical formation. We are exposed to free radicals all the time through various chemicals, altered fats, exposure to pollutants, harmful drugs, and much more. Free radicals steal electrons and damage cells and the more you have floating around in your system, the more damage you will see. This damage leads to amplified aging and an increased risk of tissue and organ damage. Antioxidants work together to reverse the damage of free radicals and dampen their power to by giving up their electrons. A selfless act on their part Goji berries are bursting with antioxidants to help keep you feeling young and looking youthful.
Mega mineral power. Gojis contain more than 20 trace minerals! Minerals are what keep our bodies in balance and help support an alkaline environment. With the introduction of the Standard American Diet (SAD – sad indeed!) we have all become very acidic inside. Increased acidity can increase the risk of many serious degenerative diseases. Goji berries supply very important minerals like iron, magnesium, calcium, zinc, potassium, manganese, selenium, and many more! When we eat acidic foods like animal protein, fried foods, foods with high amounts of saturated fat , refined grains and sugars, and other processed foods, our body leaches minerals from our teeth and bones to balance out the acidity. As you can see, after a long period of time our bodies become weakened from the lack of available minerals – with a diet that is not supplying enough. Goji berries can increase your alkalinity, supplying minerals for your bones and balancing your body’s pH. There are many other alkalizing foods that are important but we’ll leave that for another article
Complete proteins…in a fruit?! YES! Goji berries supply 18 different amino acids (of which there are 22) including all 8 (or 9 to some) essential amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks for proteins and the essential ones are the ones we cannot make in our bodies and therefore need to be supplied by the diet. Goji berries have got ‘em all! Actually, goji berries are at least 10% protein which makes them an amazing viable source of plant based protein! - THIS WAS THE MOST EXCITING FOR ME!
Immune support for increased health. This runs in line with the other points. Gojis have minerals and antioxidants which help support the body in many different ways. When our bodies are stronger so is our immune system and our ability to fight of infection, disease, and illness.

Today is the day

Thu, 12 Jul 2012 12:43:00 -0400

I have 4 weeks to make this happen. 10 pounds in 4 weeks. I believe it is possible, but a daunting task. I have been blogging about my journey off and on over the last few weeks. I have been Eating clean and working out, but so much has gotten in the way, and Ive struggled with these overwhelming feelings of being a failure. I went home for the weekend to visit my parents, and it was a lovely visit! I started feeling really great! I was eating clean, and I even got some fitness clothes when I was home. This got me stoked on what was to come! But being home made it hard! I didn’t have my usuals sitting in my own fridge. Is started with a small gelato at the farmers market, and before I knew it, I was gorging on snacks at the moves 2 days in a row! That turned into 3 days being back home before Ive gotten back into the swing of things! I needed to play catch up, which meant sacrificing my work out time and clean eating regime. I seriously feel like I have gained back the 5 pounds I had lost in my first 2 weeks… I look at these blogs about women who are strong and beautiful and never seem to fall off the band wagon, and I wonder why I don’t have that kind of strength… Why does the movie popcorn have such power over me!

But, Each day I continue to give up, and not do anything to change it, is another day I will be unhappy, and another day long fit will take me to meet my goals! I will be back home for a wedding in 4 weeks, and I want to look great! I want to be down 10 pounds! and I will be!

My new regime will be running every morning. I like starting out with cardio, and going in the morning always makes me feel refreshed! Then I will do my brazilian butt lift DVD and and variate between arms and Ab work outs. Sundays will be my days off!

I am following the eat clean stripped diet as well! Ill keep you all posted with my progress! In the future I still want to compete in a Bikini contest. but I don’t have the finds to hire a trainer. For now I just am going to get in the best shape I can on my own, and when I have reached my limits, I will take the next step! Im excited! and ready for my run!

Im going to do something about it! Im not going to sit around and eat chips wishing I was in shape! Bikini ready by August!

Workout Warrior: A thought- you are not fat.:

workout—warrior:

You are not fat.

Whether you weigh 150, 200, 300 pounds even, you are not fat.

You are a person. Fat is a thing, which, like all things, can be lost.

You are a person who can push yourself, push through the squats, the crunches, the push-ups.

A person who can own the elliptical, and run…

This is amazing! Re-blog!

Reblog if you are a fitspo blog that DOESN'T post half naked pictures of women all the time

I’m not hating, I just like to see motivation in other ways like diet and exercise on my dash :)

Agreed! I always feel awkward when I check my feed and see boarder line porno filtering my tumbler. Bikinis are fine… But I’d prefer a little less nipple…

Discovering the amazing benefits of this bevi! Kombucha is a fermented tea! Developers claim that kombucha ‘detoxifies the body and energizes the mind’. Proponents claim that it aids cancer recovery, increases energy, sharpens eyesight, aids joint recovery, improves skin elasticity, aids digestion, and improves experience with foods that ‘stick’ going down, such as rice or pasta. - who doesn’t want that??? And it’s delicious!

Carrot Cake Pancakes

Ingredients:

1 carrot, cut + partially steamed (or just raw if you’re in a rush!)

1 banana

1/2 cup egg whites

3 oz plain greek yogurt (1/2 small chobani container)

1 cup oats

1 tbsp wheat germ

1 tbsp flax

1 tsp vanilla

Spices to your liking (I used mostly cinnamon with some allspice, nutmeg, and ginger)

2 tsp stevia

Use a blender to mix everything together until it’s a smooth, even texture. Add water if its too thick (I used around 1/4 cup water) and blend it in. Then, pour out and cook on a non-stick pan or griddle with some olive oil.

Makes 10 (delicious) pancakes! Each one has 62 calories, 1 g fat, 3.5 g protein, and only 2 g of sugar.

There are good eaten plain, with some greek yogurt, sliced banana, maple syrup, walnuts, etc. Feel free to experiment :)

Personally, I would eat a few of these for breakfast along with scrambled eggs or oatmeal and some fruit!
