It's that time of year where it seems EVERYONE is getting sick! SO much ick is going around, it's hard to avoid it all! We do our part by washing hands with soap and water, using hand sanitizer and wiping down carts and such with antibacterial wipes! However, I still feel like the best thing we do is preventative! Preventative measures help to boost up your immunities, so that you are better equipped to handle being out and exposed to different germs!  While my husband MUST get the flu shot for his job, the kids and I do not get it. This is a personal preference, and all of the things I'm suggesting will help and benefit you during this season of the year whether you do or do not get the flu shot!  People who get the flu usually have an impaired immune system that was unable to fight off the virus! I'm going to give you some tips to boost yours! This is an accurate representation of me during the fall/winter sick season ..... What is important is that you  do......
Ok, so maybe not Gin... But I am down with the Juice right now! I do love gin, but I'm currently on a healing mission! So, when I saw this amazing masticating juicer on sale, I couldn't resist! Isn't she beautiful? Ok, so it was important that I got a Masticating Juicer, according to my girlfriend Kate, owner and magical awesomness behind Raw Replenish , a cold pressed juice company in Pennsylvania!

Round 1 is in the books! Did you know I workout? Yep, its true! LOL  About 6 years ago, a little program I did at home changed my life. I went from a size 14 down to an 8 in 90 days. SAY WHAT? Yes, it's true. Watch my story  HERE My most recent program, is Shift Shop! Our newest launched program! I lost 8.8lbs, and almost 3% body fat!  I feel stronger, more fierce. Oh, and let's not forget that my clothes fit better!  Round one started with a week of 25 min workouts, then week 2 was 35 minute workouts, and week 3 was 45 minute workouts! Each week alternated between speed (cardio) and strength (weights), with abs added in! This workout kicked my booty! In a good way! I did modify many moves, because of my torn rotator cuff. But, I still got insane results. So don't think that modifying doesn't get you results! Try it regular first, if you can't do it with good from, then modify!
