We've been walking and talking at Stride class, and most have committed to a 7-day Wellness Cleanse. Wanna join us?
Here are the basics:
May 1-May 7
If you want to continue beyond that, you can go anywhere from a week to 21-days.
BTW: This is the cleanse I completed for the first time last June and it literally changed my life! I basically follow this way of eating 24/7 with a few minor exceptions. I found I feel better, my body naturally let go of extra weight I was carrying, and gave me back control over my diet and health.
Okay, the rules:
Here are the NO's...don't feel like you have to eliminate them all, do what you can and don't worry about the rest.
NO:
Sugar (including honey, artificial sweeteners, and anything ending in "-ose") Read your labels. Sugar is in soooo many foods; we have no idea! If you can't give it all up, just give up those products where sugar is listed as one of the first 3-5 ingredients.
Alcohol
Caffeine (yes, coffee, chocolate, soda)
Gluten: again, read labels! This eliminates wheat, barley, rye, and malt products. I eat rice bread for sandwiches, brown rice tortillas, corn tortillas, steel-cut oatmeal, creme of buckwheat for example
Animal products: this includes all dairy!
Yes:
Water: lots of it! At least 4 big glasses/day
Sweeteners: agave nectar, stevia, brown rice syrup
What can you eat? Lots of fruits and vegetables, nuts, nut butters, brown rice, gluten free pastas, popcorn (my favorite! BUT no butter!!) quinoa (LOVE it!), beans...I can give you more suggestions as the week goes on. I will post my daily menu if it helps you decide what you can and can't eat.
Good luck! Email me with any quesions. AND..Congrats on making a healthy decision and taking care of you!

Miracle Miles for Kids
Here's a great workout idea for you for Saturday, May 7!!
It's a win-win....for you and for foster and high-need children and families along the central coast.
Details:
Start time: 830am
Where: Morro Bay Rock to Cayucos Pier
What: 10K run/walk sponsored by the Family Care Network
Cost: $50
The Family Care Network’s 8th annual Miracle Miles for Kids Walk/Run will take place on May 7th, 2011. The 10k (6.2 miles) race course runs along the water’s edge from Morro Rock to the Cayucos Pier, one of the most beautiful stretches of beach in California.
When participants cross the finish line, they will be treated to a post-race party with live music, lunch, a diverse vendor fair, children’s activities and an award ceremony. Additionally, every walker/runner will receive a goody bag filled with fun items and a 2011 commemorative Miracle Miles t-shirt! This event has something for everyone—from the serious athlete trying to beat their best personal time to moms and dads looking for something fun the whole family can enjoy.
The race begins at 8:30 am and the post-race celebration runs from 9:00am-12:00pm. All are welcome to participate in one or both portions of this exciting event!
Mark your calendars! Sounds like a lot of fun and a good cause!

915 class
Remember, you only ran 1.25 miles, not the 1.5 that we were supposed to! Ugh! No worries though, we will do the same post run to see a time difference. We are seeking improved results. It will skew your data on the website if you enter your time for the 1.25 mile run, however.
Adult Fitness Testing
The website where you need to enter your data is:
adultfitnesstest.org
You will be tested with the sit-up, push-up, and flexibility tomorrow. You will then be able to enter all your data. Print your results and save them. We will do this again the last week of this session for comparative data. If you did not do the 1.5 mile run, try to do this on your own. Get over to the high school and run 6x around the track, for example. If you can't be there tomorrow, read how to conduct the sit-up, push-up, and flexibility test and complete it on your own.
Good luck!
I will email you your times by Friday.
