Signing Off

After many year of flying Project Supermom, I am bidding you all a very fond farewell!  I appreciate your support in openly sharing my thoughts and opinions over the years.  My life has taken some wonderful turns, and I am able to work more directly with people to help them towards life goals.  This blog has brought me much joy and many new connections.  Take care, supermoms, and fly!

Hard Habits

Our habits are so deeply ingrained, right down to the fiber of our being.  Make sure yours are good ones, supermoms!

Reflections

Remember...I remember...let this give you some perspective.

Mighty Supermom

Going for Goal

Take the time to write your goals out, to really put your vision out in the world in a concrete way.  Then, supermoms, watch those goals come to fruition!

Supermom Proud

Be confident in who you are, supermoms.  If you don't have pride in yourself, how can you expect anyone else to?

"Can't" Just Won't

Telling yourself you can't do something, even if it's a whispered phrase in the back of your mind, really won't do anything for you, supermoms.  Be your own promoter with encouragements that you CAN!

To our freedoms and to the pursuit, in celebration of the 4th of July!

Super Swaps

I love finding swaps for naughty foods!  It leaves me being able to enjoy "treats" but without the guilt, making it that much easier to stay on track.  After doing a low-carb, non-dairy cleanse to support a friend, I picked up a few more.  Here is my current list of favorites:

--roasted, sliced carrots for sweet potato fries
--lettuce for tortillas
--roasted, cubed butternut for potatoes
--Greek yogurt for sour cream
--ground buffalo for ground beef and/or turkey
--pizza with half the cheese
--roasted kale or cabbage for rice with Asian-style dishes
--quinoa for rice
--roasted spaghetti squash for half or all of pasta
--build up your spaghetti sauce with extra veggies like mushrooms and spinach
--make your own sauces with fresher ingredients like tartar sauce and salsas

Try to find a small swap here or there in your weekly menu.  A small change here or there can start to add up BIG in your calorie-count!

First Steps

That first step, supermoms, is the hardest!  Face it and then take it.  It's so much easier after that!
