The early bird catches the worm----this old adage tells us that those who rise early and stick to a routine achieve higher levels of success than those who do not foster this healthy habit. If early morning sunshine is not your thing, try inserting a little aromatherapy into your routine. Diffusing peppermint oil early in the morning will clear your head, enhance your respiratory system, and boost your energy levels, getting you raring to go. A few drops of it will get you ready for whatever the day throws at you!

Most of us need a cuppa joe to get going in the morning; consider switching to green tea instead for a comparable amount of caffeine and some heart healthy and fat burning benefits as well. Rich in antioxidants, it protects cells against free radical damage and gives you the energy to burn through the most strenuous workout. 

Working out on an empty stomach will only get you so far--sooner or later, you're bound to run out of energy. Loading up on healthy calcium and protein before your workout will boost your energy levels, provide those muscles with recovery fuel, and make your whole training regime more effective. Choose bars that are an innovative and delicious treat that provide all natural goodness, no added sugar, and which are mess free. Throw one in your gym bag and you're off to conquer the day.

While you can't underestimate the power of a good plate of scrambled eggs and some turkey bacon in the morning, most fitness professionals claim that they never leave the house without a glass of fresh juice or some fresh fruit. Cleansing juices and raw fruits and veggies are a great way to detox the body while getting prime nutritional benefits. Raw pressed juices are a great resource for getting fresh juices that are packed full of nutritional goodness; consider picking some up for those early morning cleanses.

Why deal with boring, lackluster leftovers for lunch when you can make a fresh and nutritious salad that will scrub those cells clean? Power greens, carrots, peppers, and feta cheese pair well with the perfect crunch of roasted watermelon seeds, these little gems are rich in iron, magnesium, and copper, and they will add flavor and depth to your lunch or even in handfuls as a healthy snack.

Nothing is worse than that mid-afternoon lull when you realize you have hours left until dinner, but your stomach is growling in protest. Why not pick up some whole grain goodness to keep you going till dinner time? The whole grains will extend your lifespan, while the tanginess of mango, chili, and lime satisfy even the pickiest taste buds.

It might not be easy to say goodbye to cookies, cakes, and ice creams in the new year, but it really is for the best. As your affinity for all things sweet is not going away anytime soon, consider trying sugarfree jams as a substitute for the unhealthy? Made from the peels of all natural citrus fruits, its tart sweetness is perfect for satisfying your sweet cravings without falling off the wagon. Swirl it into some greek yogurt for an extra power-packed treat filled with satiating goodness.
