Hello, July!



Happy Monday everyone! And welcome to July!
(Yes I'm aware it's already the second, I'm always a little behind these days haha)
How is it even possible that it's July already!?
I swear, time's flying by faster and faster every day.




So how many of you loveys are Christmas in July type gals?
I know I am!
I binge watch QVC Christmas shopping specials (mostly to check out the decor in the background haha) and Hallmark Christmas in July movies.
*sigh* Christmas...

Anyway, back to what I was attempting to say.
Along with Christmas in July I think I'm going to start a fun new tradition


...





Sounds super fun right?!
Haha I can practically hear you guys screaming with joy and anticipation!
Hopefully you can recognize my sarcasm lol

But really though I think this would be a fun challenge to share with you guys!
So let me break down what exactly this challenge would be.

There's carbs in everything.
Fruit's and veggies too.
Now, I'm not talking about some crazy crash diet that excludes almost everything. That's both dangerous and unhealthy.
The carbs im referring to are the "hard" carbs aka bread, rice, pasta.
See? Nothing crazy!

Basically we'd just throw those foods out the window for the month!
This would also mean foods like chips, crackers, tortillas ... all the "good" stuff haha!
Now don't panic!
Stay with me here!
If you're like me, and salty, crunchy carbs are your weakness in life, I've discovered one food that's both healthy and crunchy and may help you curve that craving.

Baby ... carrots.

Wait, wait, wait!
Don't stop reading!
I'm so serious, baby carrots have been my saving grace recently!
And you can eat them with dip to add that salty flavor or plain (I prefer mine plain).
The crunch is just super satisfying haha.

So part two of this challenge would be to workout once a day for an hour.
If you're still reading don't leave!
I don't mean crazy working out.
I simply mean walking, jogging, biking whatever you're into for ONE HOUR PER DAY.
There's 24 hours in a day, we should all be able to devote at least one of those hours to our health.

The goal at the end of the month isn't a number on the scale, it's a personal victory to say "I did it!" and if the number on the scale has changed or your shorts are a little looser than that's an amazing bonus!

So whose in!?
Whose ready to kick this month off with a fun, healthy challenge that could really change you for the better?
I know I am!
So if you're planning on following along, you can stay connected with me easier on Instagram (@Thekangaroofamily) or on Facebook by searching It's Just Blissful Chaos!

I look forward to seeing everyone's progress and I hope that we can all rely on each other for support when those midnight cravings call our names!
Or, in my case, the bag of chips at Chipotle.
Ugh! Self control is key, ladies!


As always ...
