Check out my Healthy & Wellness tab...

for the May Whole Food Challenge, day 1. Also check out the Recipe tab for a new breakfast recipe for this challenge.

Have a Blessed weekend ~~

Oh yeah ~~ it's Prom day and what are Dak and BK (best friend) doing? Jumping on the trampoline. I love these two!!! They are having the best time out there. Relaxed and just kicking back. So fun!!

Their jumping on the trampoline while the girls are probably getting hair done and stressing over their dresses etc. WOW we girls just don't know how to relax very well huh?

Hopefully I'll have pics to post in a little bit.

Love you ...

May Whole Food Challenge ~~ Day 1

Update: Check out the breakfast recipe I posted a few minutes ago for this WFC!!! Just click on the Recipe label. Enjoy!!

Hey everyone!!! I wanted to jump on here and just give you a bit of encouragement. If you are joining me on this journey or would like to, welcome.

I am already realizing that I eat a lot of processed foods, even though I generally eat very healthy. But I am adjusting and had a wonderful breakfast and a lovely lunch. I will be sharing recipes with you tips that are helping me along the way.

So friends, lets do this thing!!!

If you are starting slow and just cutting out one processed food a day, it might look like this. Maybe you have a regular snack, say like mine, vegan hot chocolate every night!! I love it and I've learned to make it with protein which is great, but for this month I will not be partaking. I'm hoping to not have a single one all month. Now I really like these things, so that is going to be a challenge for me, but I can do it, and so can you. So if you have something that you eat regularly every day then maybe you could change it to a whole food, like if it's a snack like mine, you could change it to an orange or apple.

Just swapping one processed food for a whole one every day is a positive change.

So happy swapping ~~

Healthfully Yours,

Clean Eating Challenge for the Month of May...

Update: Here is the link I mention below: Happy Herbivore.

Okay so I have a challenge for you. Lindsay at Happy Herbivore (which I will have the link up soon for you...) is challenging us to clean eating for the month of May.
Which means cutting down or completely out all processed foods. Now I know for some of you this will be difficult, but this is what I propose.

If you can't cut them out completely, because that would just be crazy for you,
Cut out one a day the first week,
Three a day the second week,
Five a day the third week,
And try on that last week of May to cut them out pretty much completely for the last week.

Please leave me a comment or e-mail me if you'd like to join me in this. It starts tomorrow, (FYI: this post is back dated on this link so it will post correctly, so just ignore the date at the top), but like I said, please start small if you need to. Let's do this together, and feel so much stronger and healthier by the end of May.

I will have much more coming on this topic including clean recipes and fun ideas, but for now I'm off to get Sir Cuteness.
Be sure and check back later and I'll have that link up for you.

Healthfully Yours,
