Notice the theme...its soooo hot outside (sorry, not a fan of this weather:)) I have been eating everything chilled! I cooked my chicken breast and broccoli yesterday....I just took it out of the fridge...
Drizzle balsamic vinegar over your chicken and broccoli! Just do it...I actually LOVED the broccoli w/balsamic vinegar on it! I had no idea!
Note...I did NOT say balsamic vinaigrette...no salad dressings everyone:)
Balsamic vinegar, give it a try!

GREEN TEA!

Let me make a point right away: Fat does NOT make us fat! Most of us aren't gaining weight because we are eating too much fat. In fact, I just finished reading a study that states we are eating less fat than ever! Since the 1970s, Americans have decreased their proportion of calories from fat from an average of 37 percent to 34 percent. What I find oh-so-very-interesting is that we have (us as Americans) increased our collective girth (our guts, our tush, whatever you want to call it).

We have all heard it...you need to
burn more calories than you consume to lose weight. This can be complicated and easily lead to one of the most common weight-loss misconceptions: The less you eat, the more you lose.
This truth does apply to a certain extent -- if you eat more calories than your body needs to maintain your weight, you will gain weight. However, if you suddenly drop your caloric intake too low, your body will think you are starving itself and go into survival mode. Think…

…at the grocery store THIS WEEK!

Chobani yogurt. Plain flavor of course, why consume all the added sugars. Add your own fresh fruit (blueberries, apples, pears, cherries, strawberries) when you get home. I love cinnamon on mine!
