H&H Interview with Rachelle:
1. What advice do you have for moms to help them stay motivated with their fitness goals?
BE PATIENT! Reaching your goals is a continuous process. It takes time and commitment to being the best “you” you can be.
2. What are the top 3 items in your grocery cart?
Eggs, Milk, and chicken
3. What is your guilty pleasure when you get a break from the kids?
Going to the Spa! It gives me a reason to close my eyes and stop the world for a moment or two. I have been known to fall asleep while getting waxed!
4. What would we be surprised to find in your purse?
Icebreakers mints…but the yummy flavors. They are sugar free so I can gobble them up! This week’s flavor choice is Orangeade!
5. What is your favorite reality TV show?
HGTV’s House Hunter’s International. My husband Caleb and I try to guess which property the buyer will choose.
6. What is your go-to ‘Cheat Day’ treat?
Hands down, a brownie!
7. What is the funniest thing your kids have said or done lately?
While playing in the backyard on a hot summer day my 5 year old wipes his brow and says, “Mommy it’s hot, we need a pool.” I shake my head in agreement and gingerly say, “We sure do Preston.” He instantly drops his toy, points at my 3 year old and says, “Lincoln grab your floaties!” Points at me and says, “Mom, you grab the water!” He then runs over and pulls out his shovel from the sandbox and starts jabbing at the lawn. He looks up at me and says, “Don’t worry Mom we will have a pool in no time!”
8. What is your favorite quotation?
“Things that matter most must never be at the mercy of the things that matter least” –Van Goethe
9. What songs are top on your iPod playlist right now?
Party Rock, Gonna Fly Now (Rocky theme song), and anything with Pitbull!
10. Who is your favorite celebrity mom and why?
Gwen Stefani. She is super fashionable, she makes her children a priority, and her abs are ROCK SOLID!
11. What is one thing most people don’t know about you?
I love music and play 5 instruments: clarinet, bass clarinet, oboe, tuba, and piano.
12. What is your secret to staying Hot & Healthy?
I strive to be the best person I can be every day. Living a healthy lifestyle and being a positive role model for my children is number one. Instilling healthy habits early and leading by example are a part of my daily life. I also try to look my best, whether I am on date night or at the grocery store. When I look good, I feel good and I feel that attitude carries through to others around me. I hope I make them feel good too!
*Thanks, Rachelle!*
