You have gone to the gym to lift weights, put in your sweat time at the sauna, ran after the kids and even completed your first 5k. What else is there to do to keep healthy and fit? Perfecting your abs may be a goal that seems unattainable with workouts alone, so we have the best recipes that incorporate fiber, lean proteins, good fats and the nutrients that you need to maintain a strong mind and body. Read on to see how your breakfast, lunch and dinner (and snacking) habits can help make a change for a flatter, fitter you!
Make sure to vary your meals so you don’t get bored! Chicken is terrific, but it isn’t the only meat protein available. Feel free to incorporate spices to fill you up, and never skip breakfast. Whether you are a workout guru or a hot mama, you are always on the move, and therefore need your vitamins! You tell the kids to eat their veggies, so you should be, too!
