I don’t know about you, but I spend a L.O.T. of time feeling lethargic. I have a mile long list of things I just wish I had the energy to be getting done. I want to walk more. I want to garden more. I want to play with my kids more.
Since my weight loss journey began (this time) in July 2009, I’ve lost 26.2 pounds following the Weight Watchers plan. That’s a large toddler that I’m no longer carrying around! I do have more energy than when I started, but I still don’t feel like I want to. I have a LONG way to go on this journey and I know I’m going to need to boost my 
energy even more to get there.
I’ve rounded up a few great lists of things you can do (from the very frugal to the extravagant) to get yourself energized.
I found a few things on these lists that I can’t wait to try. Let me know what you do to find your energy when you’re dragging. Now, let’s get out in that sunshine and MOVE.

Thanks for sharing the recipe, Jan!

Ingredients
|
|
1 1/2 cup(s) fat-free evaporated milk |
|
2 1/2 cup(s) canned clams |
|
1/4 cup(s) I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! Mediterranean blend light |
|
1 1/2 cup(s) onion(s) |
|
6 cup(s) reduced-sodium chicken broth |
|
1 Tbsp table salt |
|
2 clove(s) garlic clove(s) |
|
6 cup(s) water |
|
6 cup(s) cauliflower |
Instructions
Cut up cauliflower into chunks like potatoes. Add as many as you want. Cover the cauliflower with water. Add onions, garlic, salt and cook until tender. Then add the rest of the ingredients. Use the whole can of clams with juice. Do not over heat after milk is added. This chowder tastes even better day 2. Flavor has time to meld. The stove works faster but I use my slow cooker.

I love my e-zine Today’s Diet & Nutrition. They always have such fun and interesting food ideas. This one was shared from Red Light, Green Light, Eat Right as a treat for the kids, but I don’t think the kids should get all the fun! This recipe 
makes 6 servings (2 cupcakes per serving) and promises to be amazingly fabulous now that the weather is turning hot out there!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup plain fat free yogurt (I modified from low fat to fat free)
- 10 ounces frozen strawberries, thawed
- 1 cup applesauce (no sugar added)
- Line the cups of a muffin pan with waxed baking liners (the kind used for cupcakes).
- In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients.
- Pour the batter into individual baking liners.
- Put the muffin pan in the freezer for approximately 2 to 3 hours until the mixture is firm, then serve.
