Calling all moms/ Hey coaches/ supermoms/superwomen.. . . Wanna know a health “secret weapon” that can boost brain power, increase energy, reduce stress, and tap into weight loss this holiday season? What is this magical thing that I am speaking of? It's not a wonder drug, it's not a diet pill, and it's not a new caffeine source... ⭐ It's sleep! ⭐ Before you say, "Yeah, yeah, I get it" and move on, I promise you, you're gonna want to keep reading. 👉🏾 If you're someone who gets little to no sleep, this is especially for you. Right now. Just 1 or 2 hours of less sleep at night can result in: - Reduced reasoning and problem-solving skills - Less productivity at work - Higher risk of getting into a car accident - Poor interactions with others, excessive moodiness, and even the development of depression - Increased stress hormones causing easy weight gain, strong appetite, and lack of control over eating habits. Yikes! That doesn't sound like the way I'd like to spend this holiday season (or any season, for that matter!) Waking up well-rested can result in: - Clear and focused thoughts - Quicker reflexes - Increased energy to accomplish more tasks - Balanced hormones, allowing appetite and cravings to decrease, and weight loss to occur easily. So how do you get that Sleeping Beauty quality sleep? Here are some tips: 👉🏾 Use dark out curtains and an eye mask to eliminate light 👉🏾 If your partner snores, try wearing earplugs 👉🏾 Don't drink caffeine past 10 am 👉🏾 Eliminate eating RIGHT before bed if possible 👉🏾 Eliminate blue light screens at least an hour before bed (this can be done by using blue light blocker glasses or turning off the blue light on your phone/computer) 👉🏾 Do exercise at some point in the day (just not at least 2 hours before bed) So, does more snooze-time sound like a good-time?! Drop a 😴 below if you’re gonna make an effort to get more sleep this season! We are in this together! . #getmoresleep😴 #busyfitmoms #workingfitmoms #workoutmotivation #arlingtonfitness #arlingtonfitfoodie #dfwnutrition #fatlosscoach #accountabiltyninja #leanleadiesvip #feliciastarksfitness #fitspo #fitfam #weightlosshelp #weightlosstips https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lcceZDp5-/?igshid=1uvtsahtk1o90

Why did you decide to start eating better and moving more? - Do you remember? Is it still a priority or something you did to "lose X lbs before your..........fill in the blank"? . . It's Tuesday already and NO you aren't skipping your workout or those meals to try to "fix what you overdid on yesterday or the weekend!". Let's get it, Queen! You got this....remember WHY you started....and keep that SAME ENERGY! PS. A "diet" isn't the answer....changed behaviors and habits one day at a time will make a BIGGER impact than a stupid diet you cannot maintain! #momswholift #mondaymotivation #busyfitmoms #workingfitmoms #rememberyourwhy #neverskipamonday #fitness #fitspo #fitfam #fitnesslifestyle #healthyliving #fat2fit #fatloss #weightloss @blackfitnessrocks @blackwomenlosingweight @blackgirlsrock #rememberwhyyoustarted #dothewerq https://www.instagram.com/p/B3o0dfwjOnp/?igshid=1o2asrkrvcwma

Don't give up or quit before you get started! This was from my client's check in & 1st full month back with me. - She released just over 4 lbs and 16 inches! The biggest losses were 5 inches from her chest & 3 1/2 inches in her waist. . - ➡️Imagine moving from the 3rd to the 2nd latch on your bra....which also means...less back fat! . - This is why I often say, you shouldn't only rely on the scale when you're tracking your progress. She was excited about the 4 lbs...but guess what, her weight didn't change from her last check in! What if she would've been discouraged by the 'only 4.5 lbs loss'? . - Isn't that what you often do? 🤦🏾‍♀️ - . Start using a tape measure to measure your thighs, arms, legs, stomach, waist and chest...and you'll start seeing all of your progress instead of letting the scale determine what kind of day you're gonna have! 💜 . . Make every day count! ▫▫▫▫▫ #progressoverperfection #busyfitmoms #workingfitmoms #balancedfitlife #weightlossafterkids #fitspo #fitfam #weightlosshelp #weightlosstips #onlinenutritionspecialist #transformationcoach #arlingtononlinecoach #fatlosshacks #fitover40 #fitover50moms #arlingtonfitfoodie #dfwnutrition #fitprofessionals https://www.instagram.com/p/BuhlWRkn7na/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v51zy0gqlw34

Double tap if you 💜 wings! If you love wings but don't eat them as often because they're fried, here's a healthier version of your favorite #superbowl or game watching snack...... 🌟🌟 Healthy "Superbowl" Chicken Wings 🌟🌟 - Crispy Baked Buffalo Chicken Wings! - . Ingredients: 1 pound chicken wings 1 + ½ teaspoon sea salt ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper 3 tablespoons virgin coconut oil 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice ½ teaspoon cayenne ½ teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon onion powder . 👉🏾*If you have an air fryer, this recipe will be perfect for it! If not, follow the baking instructions below! - Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Wash and pat dry each chicken wing. Dust evenly with ½ teaspoon of the sea salt plus the ground pepper. Bake at 400 F for approximately one hour, or until golden brown and the skin is hardened when you touch it. While the chicken is baking, make the buffalo sauce in a small sauce pan over the stove. Whisk the coconut oil, vinegar, lemon juice, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and remaining 1 teaspoon of sea salt together. Let it simmer for 5 minutes then remove from heat. Whisk again just before using. When the chicken comes out of the oven, let them rest for 5 minutes then place in a large bowl and pour the buffalo sauce over. Stir and combine until each wing is evenly coated. Serve alongside celery sticks and homemade ranch. Tips: Note that if you make more than 1 pound of chicken wings at a time, you may need to adjust the cooking time in order to get the correct crispy texture. Any leftovers will keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days. *Courtesy of Fit and Fed #superbowlhealthysnacks #busyfitmoms #workingfitmoms #balancedfitlife #healthysuperbowlsnacks #dfwnutrition #fitafterkids #fitover40 #fitnessforlife #lookbetterstarknaked https://www.instagram.com/p/BtQoUpZjhmT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=91fiw31mls4g
