Life...it happens

I was incredibly motivated to re-start my blog back in January. Unfortunately, life keeps getting in the way. Now, a few of my favorite Lilly shorts also do not fit. (Cue the bummed out music)

The good news, I have created plenty of recipes I can slowly start to post and get my blog back up and running!

In other news, my wheels have fallen off. I've been struggling personally and am getting my act back together. I've been going to yoga, getting back to the barre, and now, getting the junk out of my diet (I've been drinking a lot of Diet Ginger Ale and soda, that is not common for me)

With that, I'm branching out. I'm trying something new. I'm trying a water challenge group. A *FREE* water challenge group.



I am still a BeachBody coach - as I go through life, I realize more and more each day how important that is. How much I enjoy helping people and setting up challenge groups. If you are still looking for more of a challenge - I can still help you with those programs (my first love, 21 Day Fix, and other programs PiYo, P90X, Master and Chisel, 22 Hard Corps, Cize....) I've been a bit better with updating my Coaching Facebook page!

Maybe you have just followed me from time to time from Pinterest, maybe you stumbled upon my blog by chance. Feel free to follow me on Facebook 

Looking for details on the water challenge? Head over there or send me a message.

Do you just need a coach to get started? I can help you with that, too! (Click here!)

Want to help in this crazy journey - I'm always looking for others to help others out and join me!

Regardless of where you, I'm here to help, and share some pretty amazing recipes!! Tonight's menu...bison burgers!! :)

Getting Hammered In the New Year

I should have known better. I saw it with my own two eyes in November, the blogging wheels were starting to fall off. We start out with the best intentions, then life happens. In my case, life happened, so did the holidays, my full-time job, and winter blahs.

The good news? I documented a lot of my cooking adventures along the way. I have plenty of recipes to share!

Three weeks ago, I embarked on the new BeachBody program, The Master's Hammer and Chisel. HOLY COW! It is awesome and challenging and pushes you like no other program. Unfortunately, I came down with bronchitis and I am back to day one this up coming Monday.

It is a 60-day program and is intense. If you haven't checked out the FaceBook Challenge page, you should. The results to-date are incredible. In the two weeks I did the program, I was down 5 pounds and was already starting to see toning results. Not to mention a dropping fat percentage.


Day 6 was rough, but was probably one of my favorite workouts to date. A workout I definitely wanted to highlight. After the difficult workout, I finally got to dive into my new Shakeology!

My newest creation, a twist on the recipe from BeachBody.

The Muddy Buddy Twist

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk,
1.5 tbsp Justin's chocolate hazelnut butter (my favorite!!)
1/4 banana
A splash of coffee (it wouldn't fit in my travel mug) 
Packet of Shakeology Cafe Latte

I tossed all the ingredients into my VitaMix, whirled away, and enjoyed. It was INCREDIBLE! (And my go-to now when I'm not dealing with bronchitis) 


My favorite!!
Anyhow! I can't wait to re-start this blogging journey in the new year, document my recipes, and progress with Hammer and Chisel
