What in the world is stopping me??

I feel like there is something greater out there for me. I want so badly to go back to school. I have found the course I want to take. It's exactly what I want so what is stopping me from just signing up?? Over the last few months I've realized that I want more. I want to help people reach their goals. I want to focus on nutrition and become a health and wellness consultant and weight management consultant. I already have so much knowledge in this area because of what I have accomplished why not spread it around and help other people and give them the knowledge they need to reach their goals. Most people out there have to idea what good nutrition is. We think we do but in reality. NOPE!  We all need to be educated so much in this area so we can live long, happy and healthy lives. We have so much more in us that we can do this. With that being said I guess I better overcome my fear of going back to school and possibly changing careers. I'm only scared of failure that's not so bad I guess!!

This came out good. I kinda threw it together.

•  Redhot to your liking
•  Chicken
• Cheddar cheese

Mix together Greek yogurt and Redhot sauce spread in flatout bread. Place chicken on top and sprinkle with cheese. I also added alittle more Redhot because I like spicy. Broil till warm and cheese is melted.

My challenges ahead

I have to say this week had been a good one.  I have stayed on point with my food this week.  I have also been working hard on my personal development this week.. I really think this is a part of my life I need to focus on. Have you ever just gone through your day and it just feels like your going through the motions? Have you ever had the feeling that there has to be more out there? That more is reachable? That you can achieve so much more in your life?  I have that now and I need to work through my goals and my priorities.

  Now I am a sugar addict. I could live on sugar. It's been 47 days that I have cut sugar almost completely. (We have to live alittle.lol). It's amazing how clear your mind becomes when your not adding all those chemicals and added sweeteners to your body.  I was never a big fan of veggies or different foods but it is amazing how after almost 2 mns. those sugar cravings are almost gone and my taste buds have changed. Foods I never thought I would try or enjoy I actually find delicious.   

 Fitness and healthy eating should always be apart of out lives.  It makes us feel good and when we feel good and look good, Our confidence goes up. We feel like we can accomplish so much more in our lives.. It clears our minds and you can find the clarity you've been looking for.  

  Now I have a BBQ this weekend that I am really going to try to behave myself. Lol. Although I am looking very forward to enjoying some good food and a good time with friends. In the end we can't deprive ourselves always but we can control how much we intake.  

   I love where my life is going. My mind is becoming clear and I can almost see my future clearly now. I challenge you all to work on your personal development. I challenge you to change your way of thinking. Turn your negative into a positive. See what it does for you. See how your life can change if you do that. 

Recipes

                Last nights dinner was so yummy!!!  

           CHICKEN CACCIATORE 

About 7-8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1/2 red onion chopped up

1 green pepper

2 cans of low sodium diced tomatoes with juice

1 cup sliced mushrooms (I like mushrooms) 

1/2 can low sodium tomato sauce (not pasta) 

  First I browned the chicken  in some coconut oil. After they were browned on each side I threw everything else in the pot. I added some extra seasonings to my taste so feel free to add. Brought it up to a boil. Lowered the heat and simmered for a good hour.  I like to do it long enough where the chicken just kinda falls apart.  I served it over whole wheat pasta. On the side I made steamed some baby carrots. Once the water evaporates I put some honey on them. (Not a lot) sauté for alittle longer then done!!                

This was such a great meal and feeds a lot. Kids LOVED it and there was plenty left over.  

Enjoy everyone!!
