White, yellow, and brown produce contain nutrients that promote heart health and reduce cancer risks.
Fruits: banana, brown pear, dates, and white peaches
Vegetables: cauliflower, mushrooms, onions, parsnips, turnips, white fleshed potatoes, white corn
This wraps up the color wheel of produce. To help promote optimal health, we encourage you to choose a variety of colors when shopping for seasonal fruits and vegetables. For example, instead of grilled chicken and mashed potatoes, try topping your chicken with salsa, substitute a sweet potato over the white potato, and add a nice green salad topped with pear and strawberries! A colorful meal is not only visually appealing, but it also contains an abundance of nutrients and flavor!

Vacations are great for taking the time to relax and get away from all of the stresses of regular, everyday life. Here I am lounging out in one of the canopy beds overlooking the ocean. It was a great time…a good weather pick-me-up…and easily made exercising each day much more fun. You can still relax and have a great time, and still remember to take care of yourself in all aspects, including your own health. It was also great to get to spend time with….
….my Sarah…my one and only. My training partner, and partner in life. I couldn’t do it without you Sarah!
This brings our Mexico excursion to completion. Time to move on to other topics, of which the list is never ending. Stay tuned for more to come….

In between relaxing and eating, if we did not go for a run or walk outside, we went into the gym that they had at the resort. Some pretty nice equipment, and it helped keep the interest by getting to use some different things. Besides, it was also cool in there. I would take the heat and humidity outside anyday versus the continued weather we keep having here…
…Sarah working out on the ellipitical machine. We don’t get to use one of these much back at home. We have a treadmill and bikes, but not this, so it made for some nice changes…

Vollyball was one activity to help enjoy being outside. There were some days that were more windy, and in the afternoon it did get really warm. Did I just say really warm???? I would take that heat in a heartbeat right now. With this sudden onset of a blizzard that was not even predicted for tonight, I will take warm and humid any day. The weather was perfect to go out for walks, which we did plenty of. This is a view of what we got to see daily….
Spring is coming, right??
