We had brunch with Kara Ann Bloom of Hangry for Real Food about some simple tips to live by to keep you and your family's health at it's peak without losing your mind and feeling completely lost in the grocery store and gym. 

Most of us are busy with jobs and kids and life - and sadly health is usually put on the back burner. Kara Ann gives us tangible ideas to quickly make good decisions for our health in the grocery store, the gym and daily life. Here are some questions she's answered for you: If I had 15 minutes to run into the grocery store, what should I grab for a quick healthy meal? Which carbs are better to choose? What are some things I should keep at home for healthy easy meals? What should I order when i'm on the go but want to make healthy decisions? She even offers some great ideas for kids! What are the best diet trends right now? Have you heard of the blood type diet? How do I lose weight? How should I eat when I'm pregnant or planning on being pregnant? Why does my body crave certain items when I'm pregnant? How can I sneak veggies and nutrients into mine and my kids food?

Why eating healthy is not expensive, and we debunk that myth.

We also discuss minimizing our decisions and how that will lead us to freedom and so much less stress in our health and wellness. And why ymca classes and crossfit are our go-to workout routine choices.
