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

My Ultimate Reset Video CHECK IN - on Day 3!

Hi guys!!!

Here is a quick EARLY MORNING video recap of my first two days of the UR! 

(Don't judge my sleepy voice!)

This morning's BREAKFAST was absolutely DELICIOUS!!!

Oh yea... PS I'm down 4lbs! Thats a PLUS!!

 

Fresh Fruit Plate with Yogurt

Use whatever fruit is in season!

I used:

1 cup berried

1 kiwi fruit

1/2 large orange

I sprinkled a DASH of stevia in my plain yogurt too! YUM!

You know, call me boring, but for lunch... I was REALLY wanting my Vegan Chocolate Shakeology. So... I had it!

I made it like this!

1 cup distilled water

1/2 cup rasberries

2 tsp. almond butter

1 scoop vegan chocolate Shakeology

DON'T FORGET your ice cubes need to be with distilled H2O!

In case you know nothing about my magic sauce, Shakeology... feed your brain:

I treated myself to a NICE snack today too!

Green Apple & Almond Butter.

Dinner is going to be a CHALLENGE for me!!

I am going to attempt Nori Rolls with Tempeh & Veggies. 

(I'm not a big SOY fan -- but I've never had tempeh, so I am going to give it a try!)

I'll let you guys know how it goes!!

Oh, I found Miso Paste at Whole Foods, the person I asked the first time I went to the store was a little confused ;) It is in the refrigerated section -- near the yogurt - pretend cheese area ;) haha!

I've read a LOT of people do NOT like the Miso Soup but they all wondered if they "got the wrong kind of Miso paste." I'll let you know what I think & what kind I got.

Thanks a ton for reading!! I'm open to all feedback or suggestions!!

Top Coach: Personal Coach Mentor Group!

"If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much." - Jim Rohn

I am excited to start my next COACH Mentorship program this WEEK! We have some very excited new coaches! They are going to learn how to lay the foundation for a 6 figure income with HELPING others live healthy lives.

I want to open it up to a few more. I know many have been considering coaching as a way to create a LITTLE or a LOT more freedom for their family.

You have watched me for 12 months now. I've tested the waters. It is a legit opportunity. You CAN create a 6 figure income at home in a VERY short time. 

NO... LIFE is not ALL about money --- at all. QUITE the opposite actually. But I believe financial freedom relieves STRESS, creates more moments for families to truly experience unity and LIFE together, and I believe God honors those who are trying to become debt free.

I am committed to abbreviating the learning curve for my new coaches. To me... 2014 is ALL about helping OTHER women create this kind of freedom, lessen the pressure for their husbands to cover ALL the bills, to create more opportunities to LIVE, create memories & to become DEBT FREE.

If you are interested in applying for one of the spots left in March's mentorship group... 

APPLY HERE

You have until Friday to join in on THIS coach training group 

Thank you for all the interest but this is ONLY open to MY new coaches 

I hope you will join me!!

xoxo,

Brittany

I'd love to connect with you on Facebook where I post DAILY encouragement & tips!

New COACH Training!

March is ALMOST here!! I'm SO READY & CRAZY excited to announce that I'm launching my NEXT Coach Apprenticeship Training!

What if I told you I will be personally mentoring a small group of hand-selected coaches! Interested? These coaches will be able to take advantage of a step by step process which will help you go from Newbie Apprentice >> to Diamond Level Leader >> to creating the {{foundation}} for a 6 Figure Dynasty of your very own in just 90 DAYS!

These coaches are on MY team! 

THREE things to consider before applying:

#1 - You must be willing and ready to get in the best shape of your life using Beachbody programs and/or products {P90X, T-25, 21 Day Fix!!, Shakeology, etc} - I will be coaching you not only on the business, but on best practices in nutrition and fitness. NO NEED to be at your goal body already, but you must be willing to lead by example and be a product of the products! (I signed up as a coach to FINALLY get the long term accountability I NEEDED to start...and FINISH P90X!! I previously quit P90X TWICE! haha)

#2 - You must FULLY commit to completing ALL coach training assignments and agree to living OUTSIDE of your comfort zone! Change is not EASY… but I was able to create TOTAL FREEDOM with this business and I am helping others to do the SAME so that they can fit their work around their LIFE, rather than fitting their life around their WORK.

#3 - You must be COACHABLE & COMMITTED. I'm committed to abbreviating your learning curve and will openly share what I've learned over the past year to master this business! Essentially, this info is LIQUID GOLD… and I will be giving it to you for FREE, as I invest my time into you and help you create and establish your own at-home business. What I require in return is for you to meet me half way and want, will for and work for your success as much as I do! 

IF you have longed for more freedom, more financial stability, to make a difference and to be connected to people who are doing the same… This just may be the opportunity you have been looking for.

Does this scare some people away? YES! That is GOOD! I want those people to join me who have that BURN in their gut for something GREATER. I was that person... that is WHO I am looking for!

Being a NEW Coach is VERY fresh in my mind. I was able to achieve in ONE year what takes others 3+ years to accomplish. My income grows EVERY month --- and it is RESIDUAL... meaning... I take a VACATION and I still get paid in growing amounts. I want to teach you how to do the same.

Head over HERE to complete a short application and once received, I will personally send you over the requirements for those selected!!

If you know someone who would be a great candidate, please feel free to tag them or send my information their way! Never know, you may just help change their life! 

Can't wait!!!
xoxo

3 Day Shakeology CLEANSE!

The 3 Day Shakeology cleanse for ME is not about weightLOSS... 

For me... I did the cleanse BEFORE Thanksgiving so that I felt GUILT free to indulge on the holiday  

I was reminded of how LITTLE water I have been drinking. I SLEPT better on the cleanse. Digestion gets a little RESTART. Metabolism got a BOOST with Green Tea. Plateau kicked the bucket  And you don't starve yourself!

I am so glad I did the cleanse before Thanksgiving. I have maintained my weightloss - but again, that wasn't my focus. 

I plan on doing this AGAIN before Christmas.

Anyone want to join me for a PRE-Christmas 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse Group?

Here are my cleanse results from BEFORE Thanksgiving:

 

Last time I cleansed I lost 7lbs on the scale. This time - not that much. I do have more muscle this go-around though.

Here are the results of my PREVIOUS cleanse:

This cleanse is for MEN & WOMEN. Some women in my PRE-Thanksgiving group lost 10lbs on this 3 day cleanse! 

This cleanse is NOT for anyone who is pregnant or a nursing mom.

The cleanse is a challenge - but you EAT FOOD throughout the 3 days. NO STARVING!

You have a group of friends SUPPORTING you in the private Cleanse Facebook Group!

Reasons to do the cleanse:

Kickstart your fitness journey.

Come OFF a fitness plateau!

Challenge yourself!

Boost metabolism.

Prepare for HOLIDAY eating without GUILT!

If you are interested in joining my next CLEANSE group - you must FIRST be signed up for a 

----> FREE ACCOUNT with me as your coach.

Then friend request me on FACEBOOK!

Then... grab your Shakeology on HOME DIRECT!

Send me a message and JOIN our CLEANSE group!!

I can't wait to see YOUR results!
