If you're feeling the initial stages of post-New Years resolution burnout don't panic!  Those feelings are normal and there are several techniques for pushing through those periods of low motivation and low energy.  One of the best ways to beat the workout blues?  Change your routine - often.  For example, instead of doing ten pushups in the plank position, try placing your feet on a six-inch-high step.  You'll immediately notice the difference in your shoulders!  Or if you can't stand the thought of one more turn on the stationary bike, try hitting the Stairmaster or an Elliptical machine.

The most important part of your New Year's resolution is keeping your daily visit to the gym - what you do there can change as much as your ice cream flavor.  And don't forget to reward yourself for your hard work!  Enjoying a FrozFruit Chunky Strawberry No Sugar Added bar is a simpler and healthier way to pat yourself on the back.  Blue Bunny offers a variety of better-for-you options that fit with an active, healthy lifestyle.

New Years and the holiday season has come and gone and now you're faced with several months of cold weather without the good cheer and festivities to keep you warm.  To hit the New Year running with a positive attitude, think about what you would like to accomplish in the New Year.  Many people think about turning over a healthier leaf.  If you're determinded to get in shape, stay in shape or finally train for that marathon, this can be the year!  You can do it - with planning, dedication and being honest with yourself.  If you have a sweet tooth, don't deny it - incorporate smaller, moderate indulgences into your lifestyle.  You'll be happier and less likely to find yourself slipping into old habits.

Reducing calories is more important than you think - as we have mentioned this month, weight gain can increase your chances of diabetes, a potentially life-threatening condition that doesn't allow the body to use or produce insulin (a hormone that helps cells transform blood sugar into energy.)

Cutting down calories is essential to preventing Type 2 diabetes, but don't worry - you can still enjoy your favorite desserts and reduce calories without throwing away your love of ice cream.  Take a closer look at Blue Bunny's low-calorie, low- or no-fat options.  For those of you looking for reduced fat and no sugar added products with a light and creamy taste, you can dive into a carton of Banana Split, Double Strawberry or even Cherry Vanilla ice cream.

 And if you think that carton of ice cream in the freezer is temptation defined, buy a small serving such as Blue Bunny Personals.  A container of Personals is two ice cream servings.  

There are 57 million people in the United States who have pre-diabetes, a condition with blood glucose levels almost high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.  According to the American Diabetes Association, research has shown that pre-diabetes can be treated and prevented by exercising and eating healthy. 

The first step to eating healthy is moderation.  If you can control the portions you eat, you will be able to eat a wide variety of foods, including your favorites, and still keep your blood sugar and weight in the target range.

You can enjoy tasty desserts too, if you go for portion controlled light options like the Blue Bunny Sweet Freedom treats.  An ice cream bar like the Krunch Lites, for expample, is only 90 calories although it is made with creamy vanilla ice cream, then drenched in rich milk chocolate and sprinkled with crisp rice coating.  Each bar is guaranteed to make lots of joyous noise, so on your way home tonight, stop by and reward yourself for your hard work without any guilt.

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month.  About 24 million people in the United States have diabetes, and although some diabetes risk factors such as family history and ethnic background cannot be changed, you can reduce your chance of developing diabetes by eating healthy. 

Following a healthy diet might seem like a challenge, but many new products can help you lead a healthier lifestyle.  for example, Blue Bunny ice cream can provide indulgence without the calories.

When you buy a family-size container of ice cream, go for reduced fat, fat free or no sugar added.  Buying no sugar added reduced fat vanilla, for instance, will allow you to make banana splits and sundaes that have 100 calories less per cup.  And if you want a treat that doesn't require any prep, try the Blue Bunny No Sugar Added Fat Free Brownie Sundae ice cream - brownie chunks and ribbons of fudge in vanilla ice cream for 90 calories per serving!  For those of you that prefer treats that are light and fruity, there is Blue Bunny No Sugar Added Reduced Fat Double Strawberry.

Whatever your dietary needs, Blue Bunny has delicious treats that make you feel good and help you live better!
