Summer Block Party! A week of healthy living tips and giveaways

Congratulations to SDaldof! entry #6 by random.org

It is the summer time and although I am still committed to healthy living, training for my half-marathon and making good diet choices, I also am a bit more indulgent. The dog days of summer just bring on my desire for sweet treats so when asked to participate in the Nestle Summer Block Party to provide tips for healthy family and giveaways of sweet treats I had to say yes. This week I will do a daily giveaway of Nestle products and we are starting off with a bang! A $300 Nestle drumstick party package with enough sundaes for the whole neighborhood in addition to at least $40.00 worth of coupons for other treats. On Friday in addition to coupons, I’m also giving away $100 Visa Gift Card!

Now, you may ask - how does this have anything to do with having a healthy family and staying fit? Which brings me to my 1st tip of the week: EVERYTHING in moderation!


During my journey to healthy living I have paid close attention to everything that I eat, both the “good” and the “bad”. I’ve found that when I’ve deprived myself of the “bad” foods, I tend to overindulge. By allowing myself and my family to have “treats” a couple times a week we don’t feel like we are missing out on anything. Remember, everything in moderation - ice cream counts too!
