Healthy Choices

Wanted to share these yummy treats that I found shopping one day. The rice cakes are seriously good and totally addicting, they taste like chips but healthy. I have a problem with fruit snacks! There I said it, when I buy them for my kids I end up binging on them - not good! I found these BUDDY FRUITS that are pure fruit and low sugar/calories. They taste good and come in a few different fruits. You should try them. I got 'em at Walmart. They're kinda pricey but better than a king size snickers bar, which would be my alternative at the walmart checkout! Just being honest....
I caught a glimpse of one of these drinks at some gas station when we went to California. I bought one the other day here in Vegas at A.M/P.M. to try it.   It is really good!!!! Its not carbonated but totally refreshing with a hint of apple. I think it also comes in pomegranate. I love apple stuff but I think this drink is better tasting than the Apple water from Fresh 'N Easy. Nothing in it but sodium.

Zumba Jam at Lifetime Fitness

My cute friend Esther invited me to a Zumba Jam at Lifetime fitness in Summerlin.  OMGOSH!!!! We had so much fun.  First of all Esther, is seriously so cute, she is fun, spunky, has a heart of gold and loves music and dance, so I knew we would have a good time regardless of how good the event was.  Her other instructor/friend at 24hr Fitness also teaches at Lifetime, she was awesome!  That's Ginger and I pictured below.  So, I hadn't attended a Zumba Jam before and didn't know until that day that the D.J. just plays music and the instructor(s) just go, they don't know what music is coming and have no pre-determined choreography,  so they teach off the top of their heads.  The D.J. was....get this.....Beto Perez's D.J.   Beto is the creator of Zumba.  He was really good, the music was great and the energy was incredible with over 200 people there.  Needless to say, the endorphins were all over the place by the end of the Jam, haha.    Maybe sometime I'll teach at one of these Jam's  - its a fun format and different than a regular Zumba class.  WAY WAY fun though.....thank you Esther.
