    New You in 2014: Be Your Best

    12/30/2013 /

    Beeee youuuurrr BEST! Be your best! Put your own service to the test! That was a lame intro. Beauty & the Beast “Be Our Guest” reference if you didn’t know! (And shame on you if you didn’t know!) Be your best. This is something that is near and dear to my heart, because I’ve had a hard time with realizing that I need to by MY best. Not my neighbor’s best. Not Beyonce’s best. Not my best friend’s best, but MY OWN BEST. My personal goals and strengths need to collaborate freely without pushing other people’s strengths and talents down my own throat. It’s a hard concept to grasp and…

    New You in 2014: Unclutter Your Life

    12/29/2013 /

    At any given time I can have 15 apps open on my phone, 35 junk emails waiting on me to delete, 4-5 tasks I agreed to do but have no interest in, and well…you get the picture. I’m sure most of you are the same way! If I wasn’t so bogged down with random tasks, I might be able to enjoy my “free time” much, much more and have time to actually get the things done I need completed. I’m not going to linger on the aches and pains of clutter, but below I’ve listed 5 ways to rid your life from clutter. 1. UNSUBSCRIBE. If you look in my…

    New You in 2014: How to Count Calories

    12/28/2013 /

    If you’re like millions of Americans, you will be starting a diet this new year. I remember when I was first starting, I didn’t know which way to turn. Weight Watchers? South Beach? Juicing? Low Carb? Low Cal? Jenny Craig? Atkins? There are SO MANY plans to chose from. For me, I wanted something to work and that wouldn’t break the bank. I had heard that Weight Watchers worked for a lot of people, but essentially…it’s calorie counting with different numbers. You have to take the extra step to look up “points.” For me, I just wanted to simplify it. I decided calorie counting was the “diet” or LIFESTYLE CHANGE…

    New Blog Series: New You in 2014

    12/26/2013 /

    *My year in review! When I look back at 2013, I can’t be mad. I can’t complain. I’ve had a GREAT year. 1. I started a weight loss journey. 2. I ended a big chapter in my life. 3. I met, fell in love, and got engaged to the love of my life. 4. I grew as a person. 5. I dedicated myself to giving instead of being selfish. And these are only a few of the things I did! I am not saying I had a perfect year. In fact, I had some of the toughest moments of my life this year. When I see 2013, I see growth…
