Welcome to the first day of May, Cascade Ice fans! We all know that healthy living is important, but we know it isn’t always easy to make healthy lifestyle choices. Lucky for us, we are Kickin’ It with Lori Pace today, lifestyle and fitness blogger at A Day in Motherhood! She’s got some great tips to get us on track.
Why is “Healthy Living” important to you?
Raising my daughters, I want to set a great example for all around health. Drinking water is KEY to any healthy lifestyle. So anything that encourages us to drink it, like fun flavors, is helpful too!
Who are your “Healthy Living” role models and why?
I have a neighbor that conquered breast cancer last year. She has changed her diet, her exercise routine and her view on food to live a healthier lifestyle. Her courage encourages me.
What is your go-to healthy meal when you are short on time?
A protein bar. I can grab and go!
Do you have any tips for families who want to make some healthy lifestyle changes?
Health starts at the grocery store. If it is not in your house, you will not eat it! So when shopping, make great decisions. They will translate at home.
Are there any foods that you consider to be off-limits completely?
Not really. I believe in everything in moderation.
In addition to eating right, do you have any other tips to share on overall wellness?
Park far from the door. Walk up the stairs. Make a decision every morning to do something good for you! It goes a long way!
