Is it just me, or does summertime make it easy to fall off the fitness and health bandwagon? Between traveling and indulging in meals out at restaurants, I’m the first to admit I’ve had a harder time sticking with healthy eats and a fitness routine the last month or so. But as we move into the fall season, I’m working towards getting back to my healthy-self including working out regularly and eating better. And I’ve added SkinnyMint Super Fat Burning Gummies to my everyday habits to help kickstart my health and fitness routine.Â

I’ve never been a huge supplement taker, but I came across these gummies at the recommendation of a friend and have found them super easy to add into my daily routine either at breakfast, before a workout or during an afternoon slump to keep my hunger-pangs away.
Anyone who knows me, knows I have a huge sweet tooth, so trying to cut out refined sugar from my everyday diet is definitely been difficult. But SkinnyMint Super Fat Burning Gummies are sugar free, vegan and vegetarian.
In the morning, I’ve been switching out my regular cup of coffee for two of the SkinnyMint espresso flavored gummies along with my usual bar or smoothie. Because of this new addition to my routine, I’ve totally notices a spike in my energy levels before and during my workouts. To ease myself back into a routine, I’ve been doing a combination of walking and sprints around my neighborhood. I’ve never enjoyed long distance running, so the quick walking coupled with short bursts of sprints is something I enjoy and can tackle.
I’ve talked about it before, but one of my favorite workouts in Houston is a Body class at Define. The combination of barre, ballet and pilates has really helped me see results and the music makes class fly by. Before our wedding I tried out Orange Theory and really enjoyed it, but I couldn’t get my hubby to go with me and ultimately canceled my membership because I would make up excuses to skip since I had no one to go with. I’m thinking about restarting (hopefully third time is a charm) BBG or trying out pilates classes for fall.
Working from home actually makes it easier to eat healthy at both breakfast and lunch. I’ve been whipping up some easy hashes with veggies, beans, some corn tortilla strips and any other items I have leftover in my fridge, and topping it with an over-easy or medium egg for added protein. I definitely stay full until that afternoon slump!
Around 4pm, when I’d normally go raid the pantry, I’ve been eating two SkinnyMint Pineapple flavored Hunger Buster gummies to stay full until dinner time. Cooking at home has also helped with a healthy routine. Some of my favorite go-tos (that Rick loves too!) are Zoodles with a Turkey sausage Marinara sauce I make, Sautéed chicken with spinach and mushrooms or shredded chicken taco bowls.
Adding SkinnyMint Super Fat Burning Gummies to my everyday routine is helping me get back into the healthy living game. For me, eating isn’t as difficult as working out. But hopefully finding a refreshed workout routine with help me get back into a healthy routine!
