Creamy Hummus - Tastes wonderful

Looking for something different to eat

Here is a tried and true good tasting healthy recipe.  It was taken from “The Biggest Loser 30-Day Jump Start" book.

This is a Middle Eastern spread that tastes good on a lot of things. Their suggestion is to boil up some eggs, remove the Yoke and put a Tablespoon in its place. The eggs were yummy and in fact I had forgotten just how much I really like hummus as a roll up spread.

Try it; let me know what you think.

Staying Focused & Reaching Out for Help

Here we are close to the end of January. How are you doing? Have you made those New Year’s Resolutions and already broken them? Or maybe you haven’t even gotten started.

I gave up on making the ‘List” a couple of years ago and I adopted the “Just Do It” plan though somewhere I know that I have “The List”.  My last cleanse went fine, and I am back to my daily routine of taking my AdvoCare MNS 3 Vitamins, and using their Meal Replacement Shake each morning. I also am incorporating a few more tools that I would like to share.

First, I have joined a “Free” website called Calories Count. I find it fairly helpful, though I have really cut down on my computer time.

Second, my insurance company offers a “Health Coach” free of course and I am planning on taking advantage of this. We had our first over the phone appointment this morning. Mainly she will help me set those small goals to reach the long term goal, which for me is Good Health.

Third, I am starting to incorporate what exercise equipment I have at home. My plan is develop a routine that I can do on a regular basis.

Well, this is it for now; I would love to hear your comments. I know you are reading but it would be nice to have some feedback about my writing, and maybe you have some topics that you would like for me to address.

Take care of yourself,

Until next time.
