Move Your Body at Home

This blog is dedicated to my friends, family and fitness. Exercise is a very important part of my life and I don't know where I would be without it. I truly hope to get others involved for it to do the same to them. All it takes is a few minutes each day to focus on ourselves. I know we all have busy lives and responsibilities but we need to be our best to be good at what we do. I hope you can all join me and take care of your bodies....after all we only get one.

Recipe: Fall Pumpkin Dessert Dip

This is a great little dessert for fall, it is low in calories and has healthy pumpkin in it, not to mention being delicious! Watch your portion sizes ;-). If you want to get fancy you can carve a small pumpkin as a festive bowl....or just use your own cute bowl. I made this last year for Thanksgiving and everyone seemed to enjoy it. You can serve it with Apples, Ginger Snaps or some low calorie Graham Crackers.
