Pizza is a hit for dinner any night of the week, but with greasy toppings and loads of cheese, it isn't always the healthiest. A great compromise is to make your own at home!
Personal Thin-Crust Pizza:
Grab a pre-made can or jar of pizza sauce along with some whole wheat tortilla or wrap of your choice, shredded mozzarella cheese and some of your favorite chopped veggies for topping. You can even sprinkle on some fresh or dried herbs if you're feeling fancy!
1.) Preheat oven to 450°.
2.) Spray tortilla lightly with oil then top with 3 tablespoons of sauce. Too much sauce will make the bread soggy so don't over-do it.
3.) Top with 2 ounces of cheese and then of course your veggies. Bake until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
4.) Remove from the oven and cut into 4 pieces.

Do we recommend avoiding sugar? Sure, most of the time. But hey, sometimes we indulge! One way to minimize the damage and control just how much sugar we consume is by making our own treats at home. Take this creamy summer treat; Peaches and Cream Popsicles, which are mostly sweetened with fresh, ripe peaches. Helloooooo summer!

http://www.skinnytaste.com/peaches-and-cream-popsicles/

There's nothing like eating a sweet, juicy, ripe peach on a hot summer day – but these peaches and cream popsicles made with yogurt, almond milk and almond extract make a wonderful treat on a hot day like today. It's in the nineties today, the kind of day where you want to either sit in front of the...

This tip goes out for our RTeam parents too! It is tempting to hit the elliptical of treadmill when we get ready for summer and swim suit season. After all, nothing says 'WEIGHT LOSS' like getting a good heavy sweat going with 40-60 minutes of cardio, right?

New science says; you might be able to save yourself some time and still get the results you're after. How? Adding in some resistance training or focusing on intensity with some sprints, rather than focusing on distance.

http://www.msn.com/en-us/health/weightloss/running-miles-to-lose-weight-youre-wasting-time/ar-BBCFYwf?li=BBnb7Kz

We're a nation fatter than any other, but running remains the most popular workout activity. Here’s the cruel catch: Running miles at a time doesn’t shed fat as efficiently as other forms of exercise.

We are constantly reminding our RTeam family that the number on the scale isnt everything. Rather than solely measuring progress with our weight, consider success using some of these things:

-Is exercise feeling easier? Are you able to go for longer times, further distances, or higher intensities?
-Have you been successful and consistent in being physically active, more days of the week than not?
-Are your clothes fitting more comfortably?
-Have you been eating less processed foods, and more fresh fruits and veggies?

Extra weight can pose some health risks, but it does not tell the whole story. This article below shares more insight:

http://www.msn.com/en-us/health/fitness/fat-but-fit-is-absolutely-possible/ar-BBBDyrA

The “fat but fit” debate has been raging for years, but the research is in — and so far, it says that overweight people can be healthier than thin people who don’t exercise.

We love fitness trackers and the increased accountability they give us, but be careful if you rely on the 'calories burned' readout to manage your food intake. Many of us like to think of the extra calories we burn as 'money in the bank', and use it to rationalize an extra treat here or there. A new study shows that our beloved fitness trackers don't accurately count calories burned. This can cause setbacks in achieving our weight loss or weight maintenance goals! Read more below:

A Stanford study found that if you're using a fitness tracker, the calorie feedback may be way off.

What if I told you that you could make a cookie that was not only healthy enough to eat for breakfast, but also SO easy to make that it only has TWO ingredients? Thats right, TWO!
2 Mashed over-ripe bananas when mixed with 1 cup of uncooked quick oats can be popped into the oven at 350F for 15 minutes and TA-DA! A serving of fruit and oats sure to please any picky eater, especially when pumped up with mix-ins like walnuts, cinnamon, peanut butter, even a few chocolate chips.
These PB&J cookies look AMAZING and will be getting made this weekend. Happy baking!

http://www.skinnytaste.com/pb-j-healthy-oatmeal-cookies/

Made with just just 4 ingredients – bananas, oats, peanut butter and jelly, these cookies are meant to eat warm right out of the oven for a fun spin on my 3-ingredient healthy cookie recipe. I'm so addicted to making these cookies. Whenever my bananas are over-ripe, I whip up a batch which takes onl...
