I know, I know. We’re supposed to live healthy 24/7, 365. Blah Blah Blah. If you’re like me, you think about living and eating healthy all the time, especially while you are sipping something alcoholic and munching Brownie Bites that you hid from yourself in the freezer (oddly still quite tasty) while watching 4 DVRs in a row of This Is Us so you can fast forward thru the commercials and keep the time travel straight. (ps stay tuned on 1/7 for the 10 episode marathon if you don’t have DVR or have not yet caught this show).
January 1 is the best day of the year ~ the day we get to wipe the slate clean and kickstart all our good intentions that were waylaid by holiday cheer, which starts on Halloween these days. This year, I am doing The January Whole30 in addition to hitting all the gyms. Officially the 2017 Whole30 kicks off on Monday, 1/2 and you can sign up here. I did, and I may even blog about it. Although I may be too busy figuring out how to do this food plan to write about it. We’ll see. We even have scoop-tested Whole30 recipes here, that’s how ambitious I’m feeling.
As we do every January, scoop will help you kick off your New Year in fitness with all the news on deals from our favorite CLT fitness studios. We’ll even have a few special treats just for scoop-readers. Stay tuned and be sure you’re subscribed to get our Monday, January 2nd e-blast, so you have all the scoop you need to get 2017 started off right.
