Many have asked how our last STRIVE 2 Survive sessions have went so I thought I’d briefly discuss it here. We have been very successful thus are and look forward to our next spring session starting Tuesday, April 5th!
We have had individuals lose anywhere from 2-25lbs, drop up to 4 inches in their waist, drop their triglycerides by 200 points and drop their cholesterol and blood sugars drastically! Since everyone’s goals are little different, the results vary per individual.
We are striving to help each and everyone of you live a healthier lifestyle and make positive impacts in your health. These results are consistent with our own goals for the program as we are not aiming to see drastic weight loss fast as that would be called a ‘fad diet’ and we are not that! If you are considering our program, don’t hesitate to contact us via email or phone to learn more. We also want to congratulate all of our participants on a job well done as we continue to STRIVE 2 Survive!

As if the weather has not been bad enough, we start getting more snow here today. Combination of rain and snow, BIG snowflakes. Sarah and I said “Enough” and we went outside anyway and went running, going for a 6 mile run. Now, this is the type of scenery we had to look at during this run, but that did not stop us from actually having another image in our head to focus on during this run…That image is the following…

…pretending we were back in Mexico, running along their trail, among the palmtrees, feeling the sun shining, and not having rain and snow pelting your face. Sometimes, you need to focus on the good things that you did, to help get through some of the bad things. The weather here is definitely one of the bad things that just “keeps on going”. So…put your head down, keep focusing, concentrating, get moving, and keep on going!

A favorite spot of mine to think…A quiet place, in amongst the trees, overlooking the lake. On calm days is a great escape to think about the everyday things in life, what to concentrate on, and what is important. The good thing about this now is this picture brings me back to those moments, and there is no snow or ice to look at. Only nature, and all the answers it can provide. Looking forward to spending time doing this again, hopefully soon…

One of my favorite foods on the grill is kabobs. It’s a great way to get lean meat and vegetables in one meal through a healthy cooking method….and it’s even easy to make! You can choose lean chicken, pork, steak or shrimp and add some vegetables such as sweet potatoes, zuchini, peppers, onions, or tomatoes. To complete your meal you could add a side of wild or brown rice. I am looking forward to enjoying this meal when the weather warms up again!
