Sweet Potatoes Help Your Figure – And Fight Colds and Flu!
In Saturday’s class, the health and nutrition tip we addressed talked about how to stick to your fitness plans and goals despite cold weather. Who wants a cold cup of cereal when it’s cold outside? Not too many people. Who wants a cold salad?
You want something warm – and filling.
This is where people get off track – enter the super breakfast combo – eggs, butter, toast, pancakes, hash browns, etc…
Although this combo isn’t bad if eaten once in a while, it is bad if you eat it all the time – like ALL WINTER/FALL
So, instead try a sweet potato for breakfast or lunch!
It’s easy, just puncture it several times with a fork after washing the spud, pop it into the microwave for 5 – 10 minutes (depending on the size of the spud). Serve with butter or drizzle honey, or add a dash of cinnamon – viola! Healthy, filling, and good for your breakfast.
Ohh, did we mention it will help you fight off a mean cold or flu this season. Why? Because these sweet spuds are chocked full of vitamin A (a nutrient you immune system depends on) – 769% of the daily recommended value per one cup serving.
And they are cheaper than that McDonalds breakfast sandwich, or the Starbucks breakfast “thingie” you grab in the morning too!

The Bellydance Blogs Begin Today!
Well, Jade Fitness & Entertainment has done it! We've started a blog!
I'm excited to see what's out there. Bellydance has been around for over 3,000 years and it's finally becoming very popular (thanks Shakira and Beyonce'!)
Our classes have been quite popular as well.
We've decided to go a different direction this year and introduced "Bellydance Your Bun Bun Off" classes in our Chicago, IL location. Wow! is all I can say. Classes are packed AND we lifted, toned, firmed, and shrunk ladies bun buns - by the time the first 6 week session was done - you really could as the old expression goes "bounce a quarter off of your bun bun".
Didn't find one lady that didn't like that!
**smile**
If you have some time, check out our website - it's www.jadethebellydancer.com
