Frumpy to FIT ----> for FALL!

I am SO proud of these pictures!

Doesn't it make you want to give them a big giant HUG for accomplishing something "TOUGH" ??!?

These are the girls I am looking for. 

The ones who think WEIGHT LOSS or confidence in their own skin is a very DISTANT concept. The ones who think they have to feel uncomfortable forever because they "just can't lose weight."

I'm looking for them because I USE TO BE THEM!

Are you someone who would be SO PROUD of yourself if you dropped 10-15lbs? It's not really about the actual POUNDS as it is about how you feel at your current weight -- its just not good. 

Can you relate?

You need to join me in my September 29th Challenge. Seriously. You do.

Why 10-15lbs? Because that's the place I find myself ... when I've gotten a little LAZY.... a lot less intentional, and just plain fell OFF the wagon.

I was VERY doubtful that a HOME workout program would make me lose the inches I lost and more so I was doubtful that the stubborn number on the scale would move.

But... 21 days later - it did! Two different times with 2 different 21 day programs. IT CAN BE DONE!

21 Day FIX is my VERY favorite program. 

Its short & sweet.

You eat normal food.

You don't have to guess and spend HOURS meal prepping.

It's simple. It's fun. 

There are many other programs we can choose from for you too... 

No matter what Beach body Program you choose..... You will have one on one support, a FUN group, nutrition tips and meal ideas, you WILL tone and tighten your body -- BEFORE all those HOLIDAY pictures!

I'm looking for just TEN women this time.

We are starting on SEPTEMBER 29th... last day to get committed is September 22nd... so lets get you all set up!

Holidays are A COMIN' !! You can be READY and CONFIDENT or you can HATE those family pictures for years to come... 

So... I'm taking the TEN most serious - first comers. 

My goal is to use YOUR before & after pictures on my blog to help encourage OTHER women!

The women you see here in this picture -- those results were ALL accomplished with a Beachbody HOME workout + Shakeology!

If you want to be considered for one of my spots: APPLY HERE!

Touch base with you soon!!! I'm excited to help you get started!

XOXO,

Brittany

WEEK 3 RECAP : Ultimate Reset!

WHEW!!

LAST WEEK of the Ultimate Reset!!

I KNEW this week would be a challenge:

COMPLETELY Vegan & LIMITED grain.

I am SO happy I did this cleanse. It was MOST definitely a challenge for me! I have never felt so good though!! 

I've lost 10lbs, I sleep like a rock, my digestion is the most "regular" it has ever ever ever been, my skin is clearing out, and I just feel absolutely WONDERFUL!!

I have learned that there are SO many yummy ways to cook vegetables!! WHO KNEW!

Honestly... at this point, the FRUIT every morning tastes like a giant candy bowl! 

So every morning.... a giant bowl of SWEET colorful fruit! It was GREAT ... and very filling!

ABOVE ^^ I am officially down TEN pounds just by eating better {NO EXERCISE}

Day 16 of the Ultimate Reset . My body is responding VERY well to WHOLE foods and no animal products. 

Definitely not going to be a full fledged #VEGAN after these 21 days but I most definitely will eat many more vegan meals 

Happy to be doing this.
Proud of myself for sticking to it. 

I enjoyed trying NEW things!! (which is very out of character for me!)

Day 19!

Featuring: Starfruit 

By FAR ... my favorite was Baked Sweet Potato & Garlic Veggies!

Some days I had this for lunch and others I had it for dinner... it was delicious!

1/2 small head broccoli. cut in to bite size pieces
1 carrot, cut in thin diagonal slices
1/2 medium zucchini, cut in half lengthwise then sliced
1/4 red bell pepper, cut 1-inch strips
I added 1/4 of an onion for fun
2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp. water 
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed 
1 1/2 tsp. Bragg Liquid Aminos

Heat Oil in large sauté pan over medium-high heat.
Add garlic and stir 15 to 20 seconds. Add carrots and broccoli. Stir frequently for 1 minute. Add water and cover for 1 minute. Uncover and add zucchini and bell pepper.
Cook, stirring, for a few minutes until almost tender.
Add lemon juice and aminos and remove from heat. 

Veggies should be cooked but still crisp.


Now.... for the goods!

Pre heat the oven to 425 degrees.

Rince and poke holes in your sweet potato with a fork. Put in the middle rack of the oven on baking sheet for 45 mins. Once you remove it - slice it down the middle and drizzle a tiny bit of (1/2 tsp) extra virgin olive oil and (1/4 tsp) himalayan salt. 

I mean... LOOK at that beauty!!! 

Avocado Cucumber Soup & Roasted Veggies. 

Definitely not our favorite. Just being honest!! It's possible that I added too much lime though! HA!

I spent a lot of time outside this week. It felt great!

I ate a lot of SALAD for lunch.... thats the only think I really got tired of. I am not a HUGE salad fan to begin with, so this was a little difficult for me. The pumpkin seeds definitely helped though - that CRUNCH made a big difference!!

Lastly, this meal was VERY interesting!!! I am so glad I tried it - and it was ACTUALLY good!!

Roasted Fennel Bulb & Lemon Asparagus + Zucchini

SURPRISINGLY this was very flavorful!! It reminded me of licorice :) It was crunchy and ALMOST had a caramelized taste - I will roast longer next time!!

I am so proud of myself for following this plan and NOT cheating. I wanted to do this ALL THE WAY so that I could help support those who want to do it in the future. I can honestly say that I KNOW firsthand what it takes to commit to this program & see it THROUGH to the end.

And .... it is WORTH it!!!

I'd love to support you on your journey!!! Reach out to me anytime!!

FINAL RESULTS coming tomorrow!!

Thanks for ALL your support!!

XOXO,

Brittany
