Healthy Through The Holidays

We have completed four full weeks of commitment to being healthy

I cannot believe we are starting week five!

Time flys when you are having fun!

Starting week 5...seeing any progress?

I would be, if it wasn't for all the good gluten free Thanksgiving leftovers I ate !

Are you starting a nice routine?

This week was a little different, my children had a few days off of school

Are Keely's Pilates exercises working?

Not really, but that is mainly because I am having fun with the kids.

I am mostly jumping rope with them or having fun on the trampoline.

Remember cardio counts, too

How about healthy tips?

I do well in this department; unless it is a holiday or an event I am attending.

Fruit Sticks Recipe

These fruit sticks make eating fruit fun. I have used mandarins, apples, and grapes in this recipe, but any type of fruit can be used.

Ingredients:

2 mandarins, peeled

1 red apple, diced

1 green apple, diced

1 cup green grapes

1 tablespoon of lemon juice

A bit of yogurt

8 wooden skewers

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Method:

Thread the mandarins, apple, and grape pieces on the wooden skewers.

Using a brush, lightly brush the lemon juice on the fruit.

Serve with the yogurt.
