Who loves this time of the year?  I sure do, I feel like the New Year always brings me motivation to live happier and a reset in life.  This year I have made it a point to make my focus on my dreams – maybe you could say my word of 2016 is DREAM.  When I started planning my dreams for what I see myself doing in 2016 a lot of those plans have to do with personal growth, health and our family.  To start focusing on those dreams I started using my new life planner that I adore – okay, maybe I am a little obsessed with my planner.

As I started writing down my professional goals I started thinking about how I want to present in person and decided that one way I know I look and feel better is by consuming more water through out the day.  I decided to get a little crafty on my own and make some fun stickers to add to my planner to track my daily water intake.  Cute right?  So simple to make too and they are really helping me track the water I drink all day.  
When I am really focused on my health and eating better I also feel better and one area that I really struggle with that is for breakfast.  I make my kids a good breakfast every morning before school but never really think about myself.  NOT GOOD!  I end up stopping at the coffee shop for coffee and a pastry.  Yikes.  By 11am I am dragging and ready for a nap – this girl needs protein!  
Solution – make a delicious coffee shop treat with a Jif Peanut Powder twist that is packed full of protein with 85% less fat than traditional peanut butter!

    I''m loving this peanut powder for adding extra punch to our snacks around here. I can't wait to add this recipe to the line up! The water printable is awesome too! I"m guilty of drinking too much coffee and not enough water this time of year!

    who wouldn't love to wake up to muffins like this in the morning? I love the sheet to mark off how much water I am drinking. I get really bad about remembering to drink water – this sheet would help

  6. Trisha Grimes says

    That's a wonderful way to track water consumption! I actually really need to drink more water so I could totally use that as a reminder throughout the day. Those muffins look amazing! I recently learned about Jif Peanut Powder and I look forward to trying it!

    I really need to be better about drinking water. I'm sure this water tracker would help. And those muffins look so good! What a great treat! That Jif peanut powder is some awesome stuff.

    Great idea to include a water tracker! I fail when it comes to consuming the appropriate daily water I need. And yum! Those muffins look like a great treat – I can see having that for breakfast or a post-gym energy boost! {client}
