Actually SEE What a Healthy Meal Does to Your Body!

I watched this clip on Good Morning America this week and it was pretty shocking. It’s common sense to know that eating a large, greasy meal will tear up your insides and clog your arteries but what’s amazing is that it starts to happen immediately after you eat!

Most people don’t think about what each meal is doing to their body. Once they swallow and it’s out of sight – it’s out of mind! Next time you eat something that you know is bad for you…think about what your poor body is having to do inside of you for dammage control!

This video shows what happens to your blood and arteries when you eat bad and then what it looks like when you eat healthy.  Next time you go out to eat, look for the healthier options. Most restaurants DO have them but sometimes you have to get creative on your own (like ordering with no sauce or order smaller items a-la-carte). Don’t feel bad about being picky at restaurants – if we all start demanding healthier options, we might get them.

About Me

About Me
Cari Shoemate

Hi! I'm Cari! I'm a fitness star turned Mom of 3 who lives in Houston, TX. Getting fit and healthy is a journey and one I understand well. After graduating from college I worked in a corporate setting for many years and gained a lot of weight and had an unhealthy lifestyle. Finally, after I had enough - I decided to regain my healthy lifestyle that I had in college by fitting in workouts and eating healthier. Eventually, I left my corporate job to become a full-time personal trainer and group fitness instructor. I also created Bombshell Bootcamp over 10 years ago and it has become one of Houston's top bootcamps! My passion then turned into greater opportunities to write workouts for national magazines, appear on tv doing workouts and speaking about healthy and fitness, making fitness DVD's and working with many celebrities. Fast forward a few years....and then I had my first baby! I'm now a Mom of 3 little ones and try to incorporate healthy living and exercise in our family's lives. Not only do I still blog about workouts and fitness, but I have shifted some to include family fitness, family travel, fashion, health/beauty and general lifestyle.
