Today I uploaded a new video discussing 10 different SUPERfoods!! I wanted to create a written post to go along with it for those of you who would prefer to read the information, my visual "pen-to-paper/words-on-a-screen" kind of people.
Before I jump into the bullet points discussed in the video I want to note, there are more that 10 super foods that are excellent for your body, health, and weight loss goals! I picked 10 of the bunch just for time purposes to keep my video concise. These super foods actually aid you in losing weight and living a more healthy life. If you find this post and video interesting than use this as a spring board. Start here to try to incorporate more of these super foods into your daily habits. Once they've become part of your go-to for snacks or meals than do some research and pick out another 3-5 super foods that you want to try to incorporate into your meals. A little at a time leads to huge leaps and bounds over time!

Okay love bugs, I hope this post was helpful! It's back to bed for me. You might have seen me share on social (@RocioLaura914 on IG) that I have been super sick this past week. I'm happy to say I'm doing much better today but still feeling really weak and tired. Time to rest up and finish recuperating my body from these past few days. I wish you all a super amazing weekend!
