A Secret To Enabling Your PassionAs a nutrition and fitness blogger and author of The Pinterest Diet: How to Pin Your Way Thin I absolutely love to pin healthy recipes, workout plans, and inspirational quotes on Pinterest. I am so grateful that my passion is also my work so it doesn’t really feel like work. The other BIG bonus that makes my work incredibly rewarding is that I get to help others change their lives to get healthy. There’s nothing better than hearing from someone who has lost weight or started working out after hearing me speak or reading my blog or books.

A secret to enabling my passion was making it easier for me to pin anytime, anywhere. I was able to do this by getting an iPad with Membership Reward® points from American Express. With my iPad, I can easily pin new clean eating recipes for my clients and followers to try. I also pin new workout plans that I know will be challenging and effective for my clients and myself. I have even recorded video of different exercises to share with my clients through my iPad. I often find new must-try recipes online and love organizing on Pinterest. My family (hubby and 2 daughters) love tasting the new recipes I create in my kitchen. One of my favorite things about my iPad is it is like a recipe box holding thousands of healthy recipes, workout plans and inspirational quotes to help me get my followers fit and healthy. It allows me to be a virtual nutritionist and personal trainer for my followers since they can access all the information I share on their Smartphone with the Pinterest app.

In The Pinterest Diet, I tell everyone to “Pin 10” every day to help them stay inspired and motivated to get healthy and fit. This means you should take at least 10 minutes every single day to pin items that will keep you motivated and inspired to stay on a healthy path. This could be items that you will reward yourself with if you meet a specific goal or perhaps you want for a gift. You can also pin inspirational quotes. Below I’ve shared 3 of my favorites!

Top 3 Pins To Get You Inspired to Stay Healthy and Fit

  • Crate & Barrel goodies for your kitchen! I know that I love pinning and shopping at Crate & Barrel. I pin my favorite kitchen gadgets, fun serving dishes or new appetizer plates. Or maybe, you pin a new set of cookware or knives that you want to buy. I’ve found when you put things you love in your kitchen, you spend more time in your kitchen cooking. When you spend more time cooking, you can eat healthier as you control what you are putting into your body. So use Membership Rewards points to earn $50 Crate & Barrel gift cards and go shopping!
  • KitchenAid Mixer. I remember I first started to develop my passion for cooking and baking in high school during my food classes. In each kitchen we had a KitchenAid Mixer. I said to myself then, once I got a real job, I’m buying myself a KitchenAid and I did. I recommend everyone have a KitchenAid Mixer as it does make cooking and baking more fun and easy and the great news is you can get one with Membership Reward points!
  • Amazon.comOne of my other favorites to pin to my followers is my latest book, The Pinterest Diet: How to Pin Your Way Thin which is available on Amazon.com so you can use Membership Rewards to shop with points to get it! The book will provide you step-by-step information on how to use Pinterest to eat clean, exercise with little time, and how you can lose fat fast to reach your weight loss goals. The book also contains over 50 delicious recipes that will help get you in the kitchen and feel satisfied while losing weight.

I am so happy that I was able to get our family an iPad thanks to #Membership Rewards points from American Express. It allows me to enjoy my passion and help others at the same time!
