Eat and Play Healthy This Summer
Sunday, July 17, 2011 at 9:22PM Hey Everyone!! The theme for this summer is to eat and play healthy! Nikki and I have started working out (playing healthy) at KO Studio Westlake (www.knockoutwestlake.com). We get our butt's kicked on every single workout and as a consequence I have been sore for 2 weeks straight now! It's a great feeling to get in shape and in turn I feel like eating healthier as well (except for the occasional frozen yogurt which is my weakness!). :)
KO's very own Stuart Reznick shares these "Healthy Concepts" with KO every week and in honor of our theme I'd like to share these delicious recipes with the H2DFB community as well. Happy eating!! xo - Christina

The information is very interesting. It made me understand something, and it is that I never knew before.
