Hi,

Welcome to all of our new subscribers, I'm glad you're here. To all of our old subscribers I'm glad you're here too!

Well the groundhog saw his shadow! Six more weeks of winter left for us! Pretty soon we'll be able to come out of hibernation and my crocuses have been known to peek out in February. I don't know about this year though...it's been pretty cold and snowy here in Ohio.

Well how is everyone doing? Were you able to focus on your goal for the week? I know it helped me because even though I didn't stay completely within the lines, I still lost weight because I was able to drink 6 glasses of water each day. It really does help in weight loss. I think it washes away the extra fat and gets rid of body toxins.

My goal for this week is to write everything I eat or drink down on paper. That way I feel accountable for the results I achieve and it helps me to stay in control. Some other ways to stay in control are:

  • If you go out to eat, plan in advance.
     

  • Keep food that cause you to over indulge out of the house.
     

  • Schedule at least 15 minutes per day just for yourself to focus on your weight loss plan whether its exercise, yoga or planning your meals.

Be sure to read the articles on curbing snack binges and suggestions on how to speed up fat burning. If you ever thought about taking up Yoga here is a Get Started Yoga Kit that you might be interested in.

Until next week...stay on your plan and stay healthy!

Easy Tip Of The Week:

A simple rule to follow when trying to eat healthy is to fill a third of your plate be filled with vegetables, a third with protein and a third with starch. Your meal will be much better balanced and you will be satisfied when you’re finished.

Exercise

Choose exercises you enjoy. Take a moment to think about what you like, and think about it in those terms--not what you can tolerate, but what you actually enjoy. Some things to consider while pondering this question are indoor Vs. outdoor activities, costs associated with purchasing the right equipment, and time involved. For the most part it makes sense to choose not only something you enjoy, but also something that has few if any barriers that might prevent you from sticking to your exercise routine.

Recipe

Chicken and Mushroom Marsala


Preparation time :   5 minutes
Cooking time :   20 minutes

Ingredients
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 4 to 6 oz. each
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper
flour for dredging
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/3 cup Marsala wine
2/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
 


Cooking Instructions
1. Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick skillet. While the oil is heating, season the chicken with salt and pepper and dredge it in flour.

2. Sauté the chicken over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken to a platter and keep warm.

3. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add the wine, stir with a wooden spoon to release any caramelized bits that may be stuck to the pan and cook until the wine is almost completely evaporated.

4. Add the chicken broth , chicken and any juices that have accumulated on the platter. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.

5. Remove the chicken to a clean serving platter and keep warm. Simmer the broth mixture until it has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
