Now spring is in the air, we all feel like we can make a fresh new start. We are cleaning up our houses and the world around us is slowly waking up again.
I started this blog last year under the name MFit Lifestyle but I felt like it needed a fresh new start and a new design. I was looking for something that would better fit my need to share my healthy recipes and fit lifestyle finds with you, so I came up with 'The Fit Munchies'. I will continue to share my favorite healthy and delicious recipes here and update you on everything I discover in the field of health and fitness.
Do you like the new design? And what are your plans this spring?
Happy new year everyone! How did you pass the first days of 2015? Are you motivated and working towards your newly set goals for this year?
The first days are easy, but as we all know it is hard to keep motivated after a few weeks. When the new year is not so ´fresh´ anymore, and more and more people around you are turning back to their old lifestyle, slowly forgetting about their new years resolutions, we need something to keep us going.
To make sure you will stick with your new goals, break your big goal up into smaller goals and give yourself some reward when you reach the smaller goal. What would be a better reward than some new sports clothes?
To keep yourself motivated to go to the gym or for that run, buy yourself a nice new sport outfit you want to show off. Here are some of my favorite ¨Fitness Fashion Finds¨ for this month.

These deep bluish purple berries grow in Central and South America and are a close relative of the blueberry, cranberry and other purple fruits. This berry is rich in antioxidants, anthocyanins, polyphenols, dietary fiber and essential fatty acids. Essential fatty acids? Yes, they contain monounsaturated oleic acid.
So why are they called superfoods? The dietary fiber and enzymes in the berries help you with digestion and nutrient absorption. Next to that they provide all vital vitamins and most important minerals. They help to boost your immune system, reduce inflammation and detoxify your body. Including açai berries in your diet can help you boost your energy levels, improve alertness, so it's a great idea to use them in your pre-workout smoothie and if all of that isn't enough these purple super berries promote a healthy and glowing skin and have anti-aging properties.
