My Ultimate Reset : Day One.

Alright you guys!!

My last post shared WHY I am doing the Ultimate Reset. 

This post is all about my first day!

So far... I am LOVING the Ultimate Reset!

I woke up at 7am so I could drink my Mineralized Distilled water & take my 2 Optimize capsules.

(I'll have a post later this weekend specifically on all the supplements and WHY I am taking them.)

I waited the 30 minutes, cooked while I waited & and then chowed down on this beauty!

This is super simple: 

Just 1 slice of 100% Whole Wheat Ezekiel toast

2 scrambled organic eggs cooked in 1 tsp. EVOO

1.5 cups of steamed Kale

OK... not going to lie. The Kale made me gag. It was a mental challenge FOR SURE. I've had kale many times before, but not completely plain. So I have some ideas to try.... I will season it a little next time and I will steam it a little longer. 

Speaking of STEAMER... I stumbled across a GENIUS way to improvise in the kitchen. I don't have a steamer. I usually pop veggies in the microwave -- you know... 'STEAMABLES'. 

So anyway, I will probably buy a steamer some day soon... but until then... look what I found!

Put 3 SAME SIZE balls of aluminum in a pan. Place them in a triangle.

Bring to a boil (put plate on first - it's easier).

Add plate that can withstand high heat.

Add KALE.

Cover.

Steam it up!

-GENIUS-

So, after breakfast, I went TO BREAKFAST with two of my friends! I accidentally committed before I remembered it was my FIRST day of the UR.

Don't worry. I didn't cheat. I just drank more mineralized distilled water & enjoyed the company. 

Then I went on a HUNT for miso paste. NO LUCK. If you do this UR, get your miso paste in advance ;) I think I will just order it online. 

I waited 2 hours after breakfast time until I have more Mineralized Distilled water & 2 capsules of Optimize. RIGHT. ON. SCHEDULE.

30 minutes later -- LUNCH TIME. 

My original plan was to have some miso soup with my salad, but you know that was a big fat failure. So I went to plan B.

Lentil-Lime Salad

1 cup cooked lentils

1 medium carrot shredded

1/4 cup cilantro (oops forgot that at the store)

1.5 tsp Sesame Oil

2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice

Bragg Liquid Amino

Himalayan Salt

1/2 tsp. ground cumin

I added TOO much liquid amino ;) It was a tad salty tasting, but overall - it was good. My husband will LOVE this one.

I was so full after that!! I was suppose to also have a salad and toasted pumpkin seeds but I was STUFFED... and to be brutally honest... I was EXHAUSTED! I'm not sure if it's the reset or if it is a coincidence. Either way... I turned on some ocean wave sound track & PASSED OUT for 2 hours!

I never do that.

It was awesome.

 I woke up from my nap (see the robe) and got busy with my Mineralized Distilled water & Alkalinize... the green stuff.

Here is the deal with Alkalinize. It looks scarier than it really is.

YES: it smells like a turnip garden. 

YES: it looks like paint.

But... its not too bad -- just with 2-4oz. of water. Chug that baby!

So you wait 30 minutes and then you have the option for a snack. I decided to have the SALAD that was suppose to be with my lunch for my snack.

Secret about me. I really don't like salad. Unless it has a TON of fruit in it. I am not a big fan of dressings. So... this meal is all out of my comfort zone. But I did it anyway.

I chopped all my veggies up and made it pretty... because that makes me happy.

This is called the Microgreen Salad. Such a pretty name even!

3 cups baby spinach

1/4 medium carrot shredded

1/2 medium cucumber

1/2 medium red bell pepper, sliced

1/4 cup sprouts

1/2 medium tomato, chopped

1/4 cup chopped jicama (Whole Foods was out!)

1 Tbsp. chopped cilantro (remember I forgot it)

Then the homemade dressing I chose was Creamy Garlic Dressing:

1/2 cup EVOO

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

3 cloves crushed garlic

3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice

2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley

1 tsp. Himalayan Salt (the pink stuff!)

1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard

1 Tbsp. raw honey

It was tasty... but I couldn't finish it all! Whats wrong with me? This girl can EAT!

I also had 1/3 cup toasted pumpkin seeds. That was a nice CRUNCH!

For dinner, I am REALLY craving my Shakeology. So I think I will go with my Vegan Chocolate. Nothing crazy, just mixed in the blender with water, natural almond butter & ice.

I have a dull headache, but thats my own fault - I didn't stop drinking coffee earlier this week.

When I added in half a lemon to my mineralized distilled water - it tasted SO much better to me!

I'm looking forward to breakfast tomorrow!

I will be going to bed EARLY tonight.

I scheduled a massage.

I have BATH BOMBS from Lush to take a bath tomorrow night.

All is well!

Thanks for reading!

Push the RESET button with me!

Relaxed Sunday Readers....

I gotta tell you about this...

I have been avoiding this!

I'm human & I RESIST new things!!

My body has spoken!! I was just as shocked as you are about to be.... I gained NO weight after the cruise. But I truly could care less about the scale. I used to be OBSESSED with the 3 digit number. It defined my day and it often times determined how I "spoke" to myself 

Not anymore. But... the scale is close to meaningless at this point in my life. I've eaten much MORE than I should these last 3 weeks. I've eaten much LESS whole foods.... much MORE processed foods.


I'm tired.
I'm craving pancakes ---- errrryday.
I'm less confident.
I'm not sleeping as well as I used to.

So... while the ULTIMATE RESET is still lowered in price -- I ordered that bad boy!

I am a NEWBIE here and am only looking for 5 people to join me in this journey. We will do it together!


  

I'll be sharing my experience for those of you who are too chicken to try it with me now ;) .... I'll be BLOGGING & VLOGGING on YouTube.

21 Day FIX : the GO-TO blog for the BEST start! RECIPES * REVIEWS * RESULTS

Hey everyone!!

As you all know... we have been SO excited about the 21 Day Fix... the BRAND NEW Beachbody program designed and introduced to us by Autumn Calabrese. She is a celebrity trainer & national-level bikini competitor. She is a rising star in the fitness community because she is helping SO MANY people lose weight and get fit with a SIMPLE portion control and consistent exercise program. 

So... lets cut to the chase!!! I just finished my FIRST full week of the program. 

It was EVERYTHING I hoped for and more

... really!

So let me just jump in.

FITNESS REVIEW:

I absolutely LOVE the layout of these workouts. 

• Different workout every day.
• 30 minutes long. 
• Active recovery day is YOGA and is SO relaxing.
• The workouts are broken up into a series of SETS. So... for instance... {in one workout} you will do 8 rounds total. In each round there are 2 exercises... and usually you repeat each exercise twice. Its simple. You have a 10-30 second rest period in between exercises. 
• There is a GREAT modifier and ALWAYS an option to STEP it up for a greater challenge.
• Autumn is the PERFECT mix of motivator & cheerleader.
• Long enough to be CHALLENGED but still quick enough to not be drawn out (no endless chatter).

NUTRITION REVIEW:

This is the most GENIUS meal plan I've ever followed.

• You eat regular food!
• Container portion control system is EASY.
• You can have wine and chocolate ;)
• You do NOT go hungry.
• You LEARN how to maintain your results and FUEL your body!

Here are some of my meal examples! This is FUN!

Below is ONE day of FOOD!

Here are some of my other favorites!

Typical Breakfast: 1 red, 1 purple, 1 yellow:

Ezekiel Toast, Turkey Bacon & Strawberries!

 Typical Snack: 1 red & 1 green:

Greek Yogurt with 1 Stevia packet & Carrots!

Typical Lunch: 1 red

Shakeology with water!

...lately I have been drinking the new Strawberry! 

Typical Dinner: 1 red, 2 green, 1 blue:

Baked Chicken, Brown Rice, Green Beans & 1/4 Avocado!

"Dessert" ideas: 1 orange 1-2 tsp:

Raw Sunflower Seeds & Almond Butter! 

{Looks weird but it is YUMMY!}

"Dessert" idea #2: 1 yellow, 1 orange, & 1-2 tsp:

*Poor Girl Butter Cake*

1/2 Whole Wheat English Muffin, Raw Sunflower Seeds & Almond Butter! 

{Looks REALLY weird but it is YUMMY!}

Now let's talk about results....

This is just ONE week in... literally 7 days. 

This is  my friend, challenger, and fellow coach Anna. Follow her on Facebook. She is a mom of TWO and busy military wife. She has some GREAT core progress in just 7 days! Sounds crazy >>> but this program is legit. 

Then there is me... same thing... many inches lost and leaning out for sure! Again.... 7 days!

We aren't perfect & we aren't claiming to be. Just giving credit to this program because it is simple, it is healthy & it is effective. 

Anna & I are both in a category where we don't have a lot of weight to lose (although it is definitely there -- trust me)... but this program is for ALL ends of the spectrum. Girls like me who would love to LEAN out, tone, possibly lose 5-15lbs. And then there are people like Deon. 

He did 10 rounds of the 21 Day Fix and lost 111lbs!!! 

So awesome! And don't forget... there IS an excellent

modifier. There is an OPTION to make it harder. So literally... this is for ALL fitness levels. 

My current Challenge Group is doing such great job! They are living the healthiest they ever have in a COMMUNITY of support. If you are interested in joining umm next group -- contact me ASAP. They ALWAYS fill up but they are the KEY to lasting results!

I cannot WAIT to update you all after WEEK TWO!

In case you want to know more about the 21 Day FIX program... here you go!

21 day FIX crazy-talk!

Oh gosh! Here is the crazy news. 

Just a quick update...

Remember that brand new fitness program I've been drooling over... well because of the incredible demand for the 21 Day Fix, even the Challenge Packs will be on pre-order at this point.

They literally sold in EIGHT hours what they expected for the WEEK on Monday. There may be some exceptions to the PRE-ORDER rule for those that order today for only slight delays (next week ship) but you have to ACT like right now....

This means that my February 10th groups are officially closed to those that will receive their products by next week. I will be providing you with a specific meal plan and fun workout to HOLD us over until our LIQUID GOLD gets here. I will be announcing March groups as soon as I have a clearer picture on the ship dates of the pre-orders.

HAPPY FRIDAY! And... I just have to say it.... It is PRETTY awesome to be a COACH these days! 

Answering some emails and taking a half day today!! Be back on later this afternoon  Our team is working HARD to HELP people!

So excited for all the NEW coaches who joined our team last night! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

So happy for you Autumn!!

xoxo,
Brittany

FRIENDS who workout.

Isn't it SO MUCH fun to have FRIENDS join you in whatever you are doing?

----------------------------> WORKING OUT!

Now... let's be real.

Who has TIME to get together with all their friends to workout 5 days a week?

I DO!

Because my friends get together ONLINE and support each other!!

I met these girls here because of a ONLINE Challenge Group I was a part of.

>> IT CHANGED MY LIFE.

How does it work?

Easy...

We all do a HOME workout.
We drink our healthy meal replacement.
We prepare CLEAN meals for the week.
We check in to the PRIVATE online group once a day & share...

>> IDEAS  >> STRUGGLES  >> SUCCESSES

It is so much fun to have the encouragement and support of my friends who are on the SAME journey as I am! They have unique suggestions that help me when I reach an obstacle.

We reach our GOALS TOGETHER and that creates SUCH a strong bond ---> and we are forever friends now!!

We are all coaches now (girls in the picture) because we each had such great fitness results that we wanted to pass it on to other women, and help other women feel the LOVE and support that we experienced!!!

And so.... MONTHLY ONLINE CHALLENGE GROUPS continue!!

If you are interested in some AWESOME girl-friend support... message me soon!! I am SO passionate about helping other women find confidence and HAPPINESS in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

If you are ready to join my next Online Challenge Group go ahead and fill out the application!


 I am looking forward to ALL the women who CONQUER some serious fears and discontent this year!!!
