Neels Family Reunion 2023 is in the books! We made it happen this past weekend and it was a blast!

Despite busy schedules and living all over the country The “Neels 6” and families (27 of us!) were able to get together at the beautiful lake home their parents created for them in 1977!

We had a wonderful time, beautiful weather and lots of fun! Mary & Bob would sure be proud ♥️ I am so grateful to be a part of this special family.

Today we celebrate our as she graduates from HS! It seems like yesterday when I watched the cutest ray of sunshine cross the stage for her preschool graduation ceremony and thought to myself ”HS graduation is a LONG ways away” …. Welp, we blinked and here we are! That same ray of sunshine graced the stage tonight and we could not be more proud of the amazing, kind, funny, resilient and caring human she is!

congratulations to all of the 2023 graduates! The future is yours!

POWER FOOD SPOTLIGHT -
PUMPKIN SEEDS! 🎃

Eating just a small amount of these nutrient packed seeds provides your body with loads of healthy fats, zinc and magnesium not to mention all of THESE health benefits.

🎃High in antioxidants

🎃Reduce inflamation

🎃Diets rich in pumpkin seeds have shown positive effects at prevention of certain cancers; stomach, breast, lung, prostate and colon.

🎃Improve prostate and bladder health.

🎃High in Magnesium which many people lack this mineral (it helps control blood pressure, heart health and blood sugar)

🎃May improve s***m quality as these seeds are very high in Zinc. Studies have shown that men with low zinc levels have been linked to infertility.

🎃May improve quality of sleep

You may wonder why the seeds you see when you carve your pumkin are white and the seeds I am showing you are green. Green Seeds Are the raw "Naked" Version of White Pumpkin Seeds.

If you want to hull the seeds, after roasting, simply pick the white shell off. Sprinkle on top of salads for an extra crunch, soups, yogurt, cereal, oatmeal, add to pancake & waffles or just grab a handful and enjoy!

How about you? Are you a pumpkin seed fan? How do you enjoy yours?

Power food spotlight - JICAMA

Pete and I have never really ate jicama until we did our 3 week total body RESET a few weeks ago. Jicama is SO versatile and delicious!!! So I want to shine a bright light on it today!

This interesting looking food delivers so many health benefits when consumed regularly:
👇🏼May reduce the risk of cancer
👆🏼Nutrient Dense; manganese, iron, potassium, vitamin C & folate.
💗Boosts heart health
🧘‍♂️calms digestion
😃can help prevent cancer
❤ GREAT for gut health & is a Prebiotic
❤️ Aids in weight loss
💗Anti-inflammatory
🩸 Regulates blood sugar

LOOK AT THAT LIST OF BENEFITS!!

Here are a few tips on how you can incorporate more ginger into your diet:

😋 Cut into slices and eat in place of a chip to satisfy your crunch cravings!
🧋add a chunk to your smoothie
🥙add to your favorite salads
🍜 add to stir fry (has a similar texture as a water chestnut)
🍜 Add to your soups/chilis
🥘 Saute in garlic and evoo and enjoy as a side dish
🍟 toss in evoo with your favorite seasoning and bake for jicama fries

Here is my favorite jicama avocado salad recipe (makes 1 serving) 🥑

1/2 medium jicama cut in small chunks
1/2 tsp Himalayan salt
1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tsp EVOO
1/2 medium avocado cut in chunks 🥑
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro 🌿

Combine salt, maple syrup, lime juice & olive oil in a small bowl and mix well. Combine avocado, jicama and cilantro in a medium bowl. Drizzle with dressing, toss gently to blend. Cover tightly and let marinade in refrigerator for one hour. serve and enjoy. 🤤

Do you eat jicama?

👉🏼👉🏼There was a time, not too long ago, when I HATED fitness, I hated exercise, I put it off everyday because it felt like a chore! Can you relate?

🤑🤑I remember spending $100+ on a monthly gym membership to mindlessly go through the motions of the elliptical. I would set the timer for 30 minutes, crank the music on my headphones, scroll through my People magazine, stare at the tv screens and pray it would be over quick! Sounds DREADFUL doesn't it?

Now I actually LOOK FORWARD to my workouts! I ENJOY them! I actually SMILE when I am doing them!😃

🤔WHAT CHANGED?

♥️I finally found something that I ENJOY! Yes, exercise CAN be fun if you find something you like! Elliptical wasn't my soul mate, the monotony of it made me bored & unmotivated. Now I have the variety of over 1500 different workouts to keep things fresh & 2 simple nutrition programs to give me the best results! (nutrition is 80% of your results).

📆 I have a PLAN, each day I know exactly what workout I will be doing, and most are only around 30 minutes! Pete and I have made a pact to exercise together most days, which makes it even more fun! 👩‍❤️‍👨

✅ I have an amazing virtual accountability group to keep me on track! It is the BEST! I cannot IMAGINE stepping foot in a gym now and having to exercise with a mask on! No thank you! I am saving money (my YEARLY at home programs cost around what I paid for a MONTH at the gym), saving time, in the best shape of my life at 47, feeling healthy from the inside out and having FUN!

If you are feeling STUCK, unmotivated, not seeing results and tired of donating $$ to your gym, PLEASE reach out! I PROMISE I won't let you down! I have been coaching & personally doing these programs for almost 7 years! Most of my clients kick themselves for not joining sooner because you WILL see results!

On the fence? I’m happy to send you a few workouts to try so you can see if it’s a good fit!
