Tips for the weekend.....

TGIF right, lol. I know it's Friday and time to unwind. Just keep in mind though when it comes to your diet "you can have it your way BUT DONT GET CRAZY"- Bon Qui Qui

Here are a few tips to keep you from going though a "guilt trip Monday" because you fowled up your diet over the weekend.

Tip 1: If your going to indulge in a few adult beverages try this little cocktail:

Sugar Free Margarita's
(Makes 4-5 Drinks)
Mix together:
Juice of 3 limes
Qt. of water
10-15 Packs of Sweet & Low (Make as sweet or not as you like)
*For go the salt on the rim, it does nothing but bloat you

- Fill glass full of ice
- Pour in lime juice mix
- Add clear Tequila to taste (If you make your first drink strong (by accident of course) then maybe the second glass needs to be a little weaker. This way you have more control of how much alcohol you are consuming)
- Garnish with limes slices!!

*1 fl oz of 80 proof clear Tequila has 64 calories

Tip 2: If you happen to be going out to eat for any meal don't be afraid to tell the waitress or waiter that you are trying to watch what you eat and you would like _________ for your meal. Let's say if its breakfast order this: 4 egg whites, 1slice of whole wheat toast, and some fresh berries. Restaurants have become more and more accommodating to people's meal choices when you ASK! So speak up.....


Tip 3: Now that the weather is getting nicer (hopefully where you are) try doing some outdoor activities. Start that walking or jogging program that you talked about all winter. Now is time to heat up your core temperature and start melting that FAT! Bikini season is knocking on the door so let's make sure we give it a nice warm welcome :-).


I truly hope these 3 tips help you out no matter what your goals are. Stay motivated and inspired this weekend to want to be a healthier you.





Here's to finding your NorthStar....
