Have you met your Farmer's Market Lately?

Howdy,



To kick off our Paleo/Jump Challange I have found a source of information to help you on your way. Here is a list of some Farmer's markets in the Houston area where you can purchase your food straight from the source.



My favorite is the Canino's Farmers Market on Airline just South of 610. Once you go to the back, you will find a plethora of booths that can accomodate your every need. Here are some others as well.



Midtown Farmer's Market - Saturday - 8am to Noon

Spring Branch Farmer's Market - Wednesday - 2:30 to 6:30

Wild West Farmer's Market - Sunday - Noon to 4pm

Tomball Farmer's Market - 8am to noon (2nd and 4th Sunday)

H20, the Magic Elixir...?

Howdy,

So I was on Yahoo! today and came across this article about the different effects of health and how it can be affected from what you drink. I decided to read on and found some stuff I already know and just started this past month, but I didnt know the amount of weight that could be shed by following these simple suggestions.

1. Swear off Soda and Iced Tea -- 18 Pounds lost annually, 1.5 Pounds a month

2. Drink Water... Drinking the proper amount of H2O will raise concentration and energy levels. good Rule of thumb. Divide your weight by 2 and that is how many ounces of H2O you should be drinking daily. --26 Pounds lost annually

3. Smoothies -- 10 Pounds lost annually

4. Avoid Juice Drinks -- 19 Pounds lost annually. P.S. Sunny D is not good for you.

5. Drink Coffee - Not Coffee Drinks -- 18 Pounds lost annually

Here are the tools for better fitness, now the rest is up to you and your CF Coach.
