I reached some fabulous goals while I was on vacation in Seattle. I usually gain weight on vacation but this year I lost 6.5 pounds! What an extraordinary feeling to know I can enjoy vacation and still lose weight.
With all my new found energy from dropping 21 pounds I finally finished a hike on Mt. Rainier in WA. It’s a hiking trail I’ve tried before but couldn’t finish. This time I finished and the pay off was amazing! Not only did I see the mountain in a whole new way but I felt pride in accomplishing something I set out to achieve.
The hike begins on Mt Rainier
A stop to dip the toes in the river
Yes...that's snow!
The reward at the end of the hike - besides a feeling of accomplishment - a lovely waterfall!

I eat salad just about everyday. Salad is a great choice but it can lead to unwanted calories and unhealthy choices if you’re not careful. Here are some super helpful tips I’ve learned at Scottsdale Weight Loss Center that I apply to salad making everyday!
Maintain Weight Loss with Healthy Salads
Here are some tips on how to maximize the health potential of every salad you prepare.
1. Don’t opt for pre-made salad choices. Unfortunately, not all salads are healthy, and many pre-made options are loaded with less-nutritious iceberg lettuce, hardly any fresh vegetables and are pre-packaged with unhealthy, high-calorie dressings to boot. The pre-made salads available at most Scottsdale grocery stores or food marts aren’t always the most beneficial or healthy option for weight management diet plans. Whenever possible, try to build your own salad at salad bars or buy your own ingredients to make a healthier version at home.
2. Don’t build your own salad with iceberg lettuce. Oftentimes, people begin building their own salads with iceberg lettuce unaware that this green offers little to no nutritional value compared to other greens. When you are able to build your own salad, always choose a darker green such as spinach or arugula. Spinach contains tons of healthy minerals and vitamins and is filled with plenty of fiber so it helps keep you fuller longer.
3. Don’t go overboard with toppings. Many salad bars offer patrons myriad choices for toppings ranging anywhere from healthy nuts and beans to unhealthy pasta salads and dressings. Many of these unhealthier toppings such as pasta salads and creamy dressings contain tons of mayonnaise and fats that can quickly turn your healthy meal into a weight loss disaster.
4. Practice the two-thirds rule. When preparing or building your own salad, try to allow for two-thirds of your salad to comprise healthy greens and raw vegetables. Two-thirds allow for a healthy portion of nutritious and health-boosting greens. Let the other one-third of your salad allow for smaller portions of healthy fats such as avocado and nuts and lean meats such as chicken and fish. Applying this rule to your salads makes for the healthiest salads that aren’t lacking in flavor.
5. Get creative with nutritious ingredients. Though salad bars may limit your choices for exciting salad ingredients, when you prepare one at home your options are limitless. Salads can be healthy without lacking zest. Experiment with your healthy ingredients by building salads with fresh and interesting fruits, veggies and seeds. Add delicious kiwi slices, fresh sprouts, herbs or navy beans to maximize the nutritious value of your salad.
6. Switch out salad dressings for healthy alternatives. Instead of piling on high-calorie or even low-fat dressings—think even healthier. Top off your salads by drizzling a tiny bit of balsamic vinegar and olive oil over the leaves or spritz it with fresh lemon juice for vibrant flavor minus the calories.

Do you like to eat out? I know I do! It’s fun, social and usually leads to some yummy food – BUT - without some planning eating out can add unwanted calories to a meal that add up to unwanted pounds on your body!
Here are some of my favorite ‘Eating Out Tips’ that I recently learned in one of my classes at Scottsdale Weight Loss Center. I’ve applied them in the real world and they work!
Tips For Helping You Eat Healthy While Eating Out
1. Think ahead and plan where you will eat. Consider what meal options are available. Look for restaurants or carry-out with a wide range of menu items.
2. Take time to look over the menu and make careful selections. Some menus have a special section for healthier meals.
3. Read menus carefully for clues to fat and calorie content. Menu items that can mean LESS fat and calories: baked, braised, broiled, grilled poached, roasted, steamed.
4. Menu terms that can mean MORE fat and calories: batter-fried, pan-fried, buttered, creamed, crispy, breaded. Choose these foods only occasionally and in small portions.
5. Order the regular or child size portion. Mega sized servings are probably more than you need.
6. Hunger can drive you to eat too much bread or to many chips. Have them hold the bread or chips from your table. Out of sight, out of mind.
7. Split your order with someone or take half home to eat at a later meal.
8. Ask for dressings, sauces and toppings to be served “on the side.” Then you control how much you eat.
