Meal Prep

Another tip on how to stay healthy when you're super BUSY! Plan all of your meals ahead of time.

Bulk cook and prep on the weekends for your breakfasts and/or lunches. Filling Tupperware containers with salads and breakfast casseroles is a big win for a successful week of eating! Most foods will stay fresh for several days in the fridge. Set one or two hours every weekend for bulk cooking, and you'll be thankful you did.

And to make it more fun...invite a friend to join you for meal prep Sunday!  

Who else preps their meals on Sunday?

It's a process...

I find myself repeating this over and over to myself and to others so often! 

We ALL including me want change to happen right now. Its hard to realize that it is going to take some time. It is going to take eating healthy 6 days a week, exercising, drinking enough water and focusing on the goal you want to achieve! It's going to take tweaking your diet when you reach a plateau and pushing yourself to workout when you would rather not!

Its a process, but if you follow the plan laid out for you, CHANGE will HAPPEN!!!!

Breakfast Muffins

{{ Breakfast Muffins}}

I love turkey sausage and this was a hit but next time I'll be trying it with bell peppers and onions instead of the broccoli >>>>> Yum!

Who doesn't LOVE having muffins for breakfast?!?! 

1lb Turkey Sausage

1 cup Broccoli florets

8 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

salt & pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 375 F. In a large sauté pan, over medium high heat, brown Sausage for about 5 minutes, or until the sausage is no longer pink. Remove from heat and stir in broccoli. Whisk together eggs, & milk. Season with salt and pepper. Lightly spray a 12-muffin pan with oil. Spoon out the sausage and broccoli mixture evenly into each muffin. Ladle the egg mixture over sausage and broccoli. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Gobble them up!

Pumpkin Pie in a Cup

Fall treat anyone?

I am a huge pumpkin lover and this has become one of my favorite treats! No more using the holidays as an excuse to have pumpkin pie only than to regret it later Lol.

I go to the post office almost everyday so if you'd like a sample kit of Shakeology than comment below or message me for details :)

I took control of my health....

Back in 2008 I went to the doctor to have a physical done. I had no idea how much I weighed at the time because I didn't have a scale but when I got on the scale at the doctors office and it read 230 lbs...I could NOT believe it! I was in shock followed by me feeling ashamed that I had let myself go. I saw on the chart that the doctor put down that I was morbidly obese which was a huge wake up call! He looked me straight in the eye and said that "I needed to lose weight or I was going to get diabetes"...I was diagnosed pre diabetic!

Needless to say, after we left the doctor...I signed up at a local gym and started focusing on nutrition. I lost 80 lbs within a year because of my hard work and dedication! I went back to that very same doctor and he was just blown away that I did it....and I did it so quickly! My numbers were reversed so I was nowhere being diabetic anymore! If I didn't lose the weight.....than I would have had diabetes today and probably much more major health problems. This goes to show how much weight can affect your health!

Was it easy? No....but it was WORTH it!

I feel amazing, I got my confidence back and I feel like a million bucks! Now I'm on a journey to inspire others that they can improve their health just by incorporating fitness & nutrition.

If you think you're past the point of not being able to lose weight....just like I thought...PUSH that out of your mind now! If you need help or even the extra accountability than join my accountability group. I'd love to help you reach your fullest potential....you'd be amazed at what your body can do :)
