What The Heck! Time For Detox...

Over the past month I have had too many sweet treats! Going out of town, birthdays, and weekend holidays are the reason, but not a good enough excuse! It's real easy to say " It's Memorial Day weekend I can have fun and eat what I want cause it's a holiday!" One cheat day or cheat meal is fine, but I can easily get on a bad eating roll if I'm not careful. After making these too rich and delicious cupcakes for a birthday this past weekend and having a few too many tortilla chips and mojitos I am feeling gross. Eating like that even makes me feel tired and unmotivated. There is nothing good about it! Learning to enjoy a treat every now and then and not a few times a week is the best way to keep feelin good! Here is the link to these recipe for these evil cupcakes if you must try them :-)
http://tidymom.net/2011/cookie-dough-cupcakes-with-cookie-dough-frosting-recipe/ Yes, Tidymom has some yummy recipes on her blog!

  I also get sucked in to the delicious looking recipes on Pinterest. Dangerous! Although I have found some healthy delicious recipe's on there as well. I did see this crazy dessert on there and have made it twice! What was I thinking!? I call it the "No You Diin't "Dessert cause that's what I say to myself after I made it! ( you have to say it kinda gangsta like :-)) and you should do a look like this on your face when you say it.......



I pinned this on Pinterest, but haven't made it. I will just stare at the picture instead.......
Oh and I also watch some cooking shows on The Food Network that I should not watch because it gives me ideas of terrible things to make like these.....


Donut icecream sandwiches! Thank goodness I came to my senses and did not make these. Good grief! Here is another recipe I found on a blog. Avocado Banana icecream. Luckily this wasn't so horrible for me, but I still did not need it! It was pretty tasty!


I also love to make drinks like these Blueberry Mojitos. Soooo good! Too much sugar in these alcoholic concoctions, so I must avoid them as much as possible. If you want a chubby tummy, keep on drinkin drinks like these! Hard to resist sometimes, though.


     So this week I am ready to leave all that crap behind and get back to strict healthy eating! I actually love healthy foods anyway and feel soooo much better when I eat good. Those sugary junk foods are just not worth it (only once in awhile if I don't go overboard) .
I am looking forward to recipes like this.....

 Here are some healthy meals I have made recently.Cuban Shrimp Saute....
 Kale cooked in coconut oil. I LOVE this and could eat the whole pan.

 I think this Quinoa Salad looks really good....
 I should be feeling great by the end of the week after eating clean and light. I will also keep the image of laying in the sun in a bikini as a motivator and reminder to keep going good.


I love summer! So Keep Calm and Summer On! Oh yeah and eat healthy, exercise, and feel good!

  1. I can really relate to this post Janae! I ate some bad foods this weekend. I also had the PMS bloat going on, not pretty. Well, I'm back at it too. I got sucked into Trisha Yearwood's show and Pioneer Woman. These ladies can really cook but not all healthy. I think these have to be kept in moderation for sure!

  2. Misery loves company and I'm in the bad food boat too! I bought a carrot cake yesterday for my husband's birthday. It's been so long since I've had cake so of course I had to have a piece and I had to have another piece today and I didn't get to workout. Things sure do snowball quickly! That's okay, I'm over it and tomorrow is a brand new day. I'll be getting back to my Turbo Fire workouts and healthy eating.
