Why hello 2016, we’re so happy to have you here!

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been in constant count down for the last few months to give myself a fresh start, and a new year is the perfect time to do that. One of the big things I’m hoping to get a fresh start on is my diet because lately it’s been real real bad – like, “how haven’t you had a heart attack yet?” bad. Let me explain….

Besides eating my weight in holiday cookies over the last few weeks {I can’t be the only one, right?}, I’ve been struggling to get my bootay in gear when it comes to cooking for myself. I’ve never considered myself a good cook – or even a cook in general for that matter – but I’ve always hoped that one day I’d get motivated enough to teach myself how to not totally suck in the cooking department. Needless to say, I’m hoping that day comes sometime during January of 2016!

Cooking takes time – which is something I don’t quite have a lot of when it comes to working full time, this little site ‘o mine and a bunch of fun {but sometimes exhausting} freelance projects. But this month I’m hoping to set a little more time aside for my kitchen and convince myself that popcorn and white wine doesn’t constitute dinner {and yes, that may or may not be about 65% of my average diet!}

So what’s a gal to do? Perscribe Nutrition to the rescue! My friends Jamie and Dani gave me the scoop on Prescribe Nutrition a few weeks back when I complimented them on the fact that they always seemed to have their butt in gear when it comes to balancing work, life, workouts and eating healthy {serious #SquadGoals for sure}, but they let me in on their little secret that they’re big fans of Prescribe Nutrition, an online resource and program for those who want to get off the rollercoaster of fad diets {and dieting in general} and take back control of their nutrition.

Prescribe Nutritions founders Katie & Megan are both registered nutritionists, and they definitely know what’s up when it comes to making long term changes with your health and nutrition. I’m signing up for their Prescribe 20 day program that starts on January 10th to get 2016 off to a healthy start! From daily recipes, email motivation, a crap ton of helpful resources {what to buy at the grocery store, how to eat healthy in an airport, a DIY 3 day detox and SO much more which you can check out right here}, and more,  I’m really looking forward to seeing how it changes how I approach food in general, and hopefully how the program makes me a slightly better cook! For the crazy amount of recipes, resources and more, the $159 price tag is nothing compared to all the fad diets, juice cleanses and more that don’t help you stay healthy in the long run. Plus, if you use the code “CHARMING”, you can save 20% off for the January 10th session – holla! Seriously, it’s such an awesome deal and I’m really looking forward to getting my booty in gear over the next 20 days. If you happen join please let me know – I need a buddy to hold me accountable 🙂

In other news, I’ll be back later this week to share a few exciting updates as well as what I’m hoping for in 2016. Have a good first day back at work {boo!} and chat soon! xx
