Healthy Living: Take 2

They say, "a family that prays together, stays together" but I also think, "a family that eats clean together, stays together even longer".

It's easier when your entire family is on board with a healthy lifestyle. And by entire family, I mean your extended family too. That way you have ABSOLUTLY no excuses for weekend gorging and scale or exercise set-backs. I've been able to lose 10lbs and counting so far because my entire family is eating clean.  

I love the *side-eye* family members give when you start making what they think is your Sunday dinner plate and you add some mac-n-cheese. Ahahahaha when now the mac-n-cheese is designated for the kiddies only. The *side-eye* turns into a smile when you pass the plate to your son and hand him the spoon. 

What I've been doing:

- 3 meals a day + 2 snacks 

- 1/2 my body weight in water 

- no sweets (I had a minor slip-up on this but I've been back on track for the past week now)

- 3x/week cardio (my fav Mel B Totally Fit) and Yes I do the Brit accent while working out  

- I've started using my Laptop lunch box to assist w/ proper portion control  

Have you and your family jumped on the clean eating bandwagon?
