Let’s talk barbecues. Memorial Day is right around the corner and with it comes a summer filled with outdoor eating. Barbecues, picnics, and pitch-ins can be a scary foodscape to navigate when you’re trying to eat healthy. My suggestion is to take your diet into your own hands! Bring your own healthified dish for everyone to enjoy. Not only will it ensure you have something to nosh on, but it may convince a few fellow party-goers that healthy eating isn’t such a bad way of life.

Did you know that holding your body in a prone position just a few inches off the floor is both challenging and great for your physique? That’s right, planks are all the rage, replacing crunches as the go-to core exercise. Everyone's planking these days—elite athletes, my mom and dad, and even 71-year-olds breaking world records. We can thank our yoga and Pilates instructors for this one!

Memorial Day is one of my favorite holidays, not only because America remembers the heroes who have served our country, but because it's a tradition that I spend it with my family. The weekend also kicks summer into high gear, and that calls for refreshing, fruity drinks! My fam gets together to make good food, drink, and have a good time!

It's hard to believe that strawberry season is right around the corner. We’re all quite familiar with these sweet, tangy, and bright red berries. But did you know that on top of being naturally delicious, they’re also a rockstar superfood?

Whether you have a busy schedule or you are just a morning person, this workout will start your day off right!

I have a confession to make—I'm one of those people who sneaks food into the movie theatre. I know, I know, bad girl! It's not about the money, in fact, I'd happily pony up some of my hard-earned cash if the movie theatre concession stands provided healthier snack options. All that I've seen is buttered popcorn, soda, candy, and hot dogs. Until they get on the healthy eating bandwagon, I'm going to keep on keeping on with my large snack-filled purse.
