Embracing My Curves, 1 Day at a Time!

I'm Diana. New wife to the most amazing, wonderful man on the face of this earth and mom to the cutest, 4 legged fur-baby in all the land. This blog, I hope, is an inspirational blog for myself as well as others. I want to inspire everyone to eat better, live better and become better. I want women to feel sexy no matter their size, feel good in their skin and embrace their curves! I'm a sister, a friend, a daughter, a crazy person, a homemaker, a cook, a wannabe pole dancer, a gardener, a sometimes knitter, a vegetarian, a junk collector, a hot tea drinker, an on again off again fitness buff, an organ donor, a convenient Catholic, a recent, health conscious food police and so much more. I'm 30 and finally starting to embrace the curves that God gave me and learning to love the skin I'm in. Writing this blog is another way for me to just lay it all out there. From A-Z, the good, the bad and the ugly. Its all here.

Picked out the prettiest tree of the bunch today, brought 'er home and got 'er decorated! Put out all my Christmas decor around the house and finished the front porch with garland, bows and poinsettias! I LOVE this time of year!

Today is #sacrificesaturday!! I'm sacrificing the delicious vegetarian tamales my husband is eating and instead enjoying my delicious cinnamon swirl Shakeology! What will you be sacrificing today to make it healthier than yesterday??!! #ivegotgoals #healthiestholiday

Whole wheat penne pasta with dill, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, chickpeas, onion and garlic. SOOOO yummy!! Good job chef Diana! Supper in the Tyser home is ALWAYS delicious, ALWAYS healthy and ALWAYS made with love!

Here is my biggest weakness- Medjool Dates!! I cannot eat just one. If I allowed myself to eat 100 dates a day, I'm pretty sure I would!! Thankfully dates are a healthy snack! What are your food/snack weaknesses??!

Lunch today was delicious leftovers from last night with a big jar of fresh juice!! Omg it was sooo good! Juice: 1 beet with stems, 1 Fuji Apple, 1 lemon, 1 nuckle of ginger and 1 head of romaine lettuce. Man oh man it was delicious!

So this yummyness went down tonight!! MMMMM! I put a new twist on my black beans and brown rice recipe by putting it inside a romaine lettuce leaf and adding spicy guacamole! Paired with a nice garden spinach side salad and you've got yourself a delicious, nutritious, filling meal that's easy on the waistline! Yum!

Today's Shakeology flavor: PUMPKIN SPICE! It tastes better than Starbucks and of course is 100% healthier! This is 100% superfoods in my cup- no added fillers, sugars, preservatives, food additives, colors or chemicals. This is pure nutrition! Here is the mix up- 1 scoop chocolate vegan Shakeology, 1/2c organic pumpkin purée, 1tsp organic maple syrup, 1tbsp chopped pecans, 1tbsp pumpkin pie spice, 2c almond milk and ice! Blend together and drink with a smile!! I seriously LOVE this stuff!

I'm meeting a friend whom I haven't seen in about 6 months for dinner so I thought I'd have a bite to eat at home so I don't over eat or eat crazy at the restaurant! So here is my homemade roasted cauliflower with dill soup and a chunk of roasted cabbage with liquid aminos. Mmm!

Loving this yum yum on my plate! Garlic green beans, spaghetti squash with pesto and a kale salad with lemon, raisins and watermelon radishes! DEVINE!

Remember this! There is NO quick fix when it comes to health and fitness. There is NO instant gratification. There is NO magic pill! It's a lot of little steps in the right direction and working hard to get the results you want. It's a LIFESTYLE change.
