Healthy Bitch Daily Collaboration

[ Smart fruit choice: watermelon; it’s 90% water ]

Are you a healthy bitch? I certainly am. One of my guilty pleasures is Healthy Bitch Daily [ created by Skinny Bitch author, Kim Barnouin ]. When they asked me to guest post, I was super excited about reaching out to healthy bitches everywhere. The site completely inspired me with their super skinny wisdom.

+ Ew! HFCS?!:

HFCS stands for high-frucotse corn syrup. You might as well guzzle gasoline. This baby is stored in the fat cells & forces the liver to work overtime. Always go with organic. If you’re a spicy fanatic like me, look for quality hot sauces like All Spice Cafe & mix your own homemade salad dressings.

+ Calorie, Schmalorie:

Low-cal doesn’t equal healthy. Do not justify your meal just because of the calorie count. At first glance, I check the label for sugar & carb content. When foods are high in protein & calories, they provide you will more energy & a fullness feeling.

[ My favorite kind of lettuce: arugula ]

+ Peace-out, Soda:

Soda is a giant, epic FAIL. There’s absolutely no reason to consume soda. There are too many other delicious options. It’s bloating & disgusting. Slug a Kombucha, Ayala’s Herbal Water, or an organic energy shot [ ex. Celestial Seasonings K Shots ]. Oh, & before you grab that cup of coffee that you’ll diiiiiiieeee without on an empty stomach, eat a banana.

+ A Super Sized No-No:

The only thing that you should be drinking that is larger than your handbag, is a water bottle. A smoothie, even if it’s filled with fruit, should not be weighing down your arm with its heavy load. Portion control applies to bubbly, skinny lattes, and/or juices. Solution: order smalls/talls or buy portion-sized glasswear to keep yourself accountable!
