Food For Thought

This week's "No Fail Food & Fitness Plan":

Eat one choice from Kristin’s Kitchen for breakfast, lunch, dinner and pick two smart snacks a day.
Have only 3 beverages other then water in a day. Keep them to 1 serving size each.
Alternate days of 40 min of walking or other cardio, and my videos or other strength/toning workouts over the course of 5 days in the week.

Depending on your current circumstance, you will either lose weight or maintain it with this plan. You may always exercise more, drop a snack or two, and/or cut down on beverages other then water to increase the speed of weight loss.

Email, Facebook, or Tweet me and let me know how you are doing, if you have any fitness questions, or if you’d like to give me a favorite recipe to feature.

Good Luck! Keep in touch- I’m always here if you need me.
