Stuck in the “tired” cycle

Posted by on 1 Comment

I’m sure you’ve all been there at least once in your life, or, if you’re like me, maybe its more of a reoccurring phase. I’m calling it the TIRED cycle. You know the days when you are exhausted and you know all the reasons why. Not enough sleep, not eating right, not exercising. It should be easy to fix right!? I mean, come on, I just ran a 5k only a month ago. What the heck is happening to me? Why can’t I pull my life together at this very moment?

Truthfully it doesn’t really matter how or why you’re stuck. What matters is how you get yourself out of it!

Posted by on 4 Comments

I have a new favourite snack; and it’s actually good for me! The best part is that my family loves them too! Protinis are mini packs of chicken with dried fruit or marinated in a sauce. There are eight flavours eight flavours including Oven Roasted Chicken, Sweet Thai Chili Chicken, Mild Salsa Chicken, Honey Garlic Chicken, Oven Roasted Chicken and Cranberry, Oven Roasted Chicken and Superfruit, Oven Roasted Chicken and Mango, and Oven Roasted Chicken and Apple and they are delicious! They are the perfect snack for mid morning/afternoon or as part of a bento box in your child’s lunch. When I buy Protinis they are always the first thing my girls choose for their lunches!

MLF #PROTINIS IMAGE Did you know that not all protein is created equal? Protinis are a complete source of protein. That means that the chicken in Protinis contains all of the essential amino acids your body needs, and can’t make on it’s own. Protein rich foods help build strong muscle and help build and repair body tissue. The chicken in Protinis is roasted and tastes delicious!
