February is coming to a close and I am so proud of all the hard work & dedication I've seen this month! I love hearing from all my friends on how their training and nutrition programs are going. You haven't let cold weather slow you down and you've stayed committed to your goals!
This month, I've especially loved the opportunity to reach out to more people than I ever thought possible. Last week I was able to speak to a group of young women about proper nutrition, exercise, and faith.
We did a quick body weight workout, then focused on the power of positive thinking and with help from God's strength we can acheive our life goals.
We discussed how college can be a difficult time for a lot of women since there is such pressure to fit in, get a high GPA, and have a great figure while doing it. Even when college is finished, life's challenges continue. God has a plan for us all though, and we must have the strength to follow it.
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." -Jeremiah 29:11

An example of one of the great recipes that can be found on the meal plan is Crockpot Chicken Gyros! These are family friendly and so easy to make since you just have to mix up all the ingredients in a crockpot.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 onion, diced
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon basil
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
Directions: Spray crock pot with non-stick cooking spray. Place chicken breasts inside slow cooker. Mix remaining ingredients together in a bowl and pour over chicken breasts. Cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours or LOW 6-8 hours. Shred chicken and serve with pocketless whole wheat pita bread, Flat Out Bread, or lettuce wrap, sliced tomatoes, sliced onions, sliced cucumbers, lettuce, feta cheese and tzatziki sauce.
