Valentines Day - 21 Day Fix Style

So I know that when we hear the word Valentine's day our mind INSTANTLY goes to big boxes of chocolates, candy conversation hearts, heart shaped cookies. cupcakes and MORE!! I can't even begin to list all of the goodies that were greeting me as I walked into the grocery store this week. Not to mention the bottles of wine, champagne and dinners out that many of us attend to celebrate our love for one another.

But WAIT just one minute!! Yes all that stuff is fun, fun to splurge, fun to love on each other but I think I heard on the news this week something about "Valentines WEEK"!! WHAT???? Since when did this Halmark holiday turn into an ENTIRE WEEK??? I don't mean to be the Scrooge on this holiday full of LOVE but if we are turning these celebrations into a week long event  that can do some serious damage to our waist lines and goals!!

Now I'm NOT saying don't splurge, don't have fun or don't celebrate that special someone....absolutely DO that!! But lets just keep things in perspective! Lets plan out our days and clean it up where we can!! If you're going out for a fancy dinner lets clean up brunch and snack so we stay on track through the day! Maybe you're making dinner in...GREAT I have lots of yummy, HEALTHY ideas for you too!! Ok enough talking lets get to it!!
