Spring Is Here!

The sun is starting to SHINE and Easter is within the next couple of days! In the theme of Spring and since it will be my baby girl first Easter I am thinking to do something special for her.... I am making her, her first Easter Basket!! Yay! ME!  

However instead of filling it with chocolate, sweets, and treats she is obviously too young to eat and is quite to sweet for her I will be filling her basket with other things.  Check out my list of items:

  • Gerber Graduates Puff
  • Gerber Graduates Lil' Crunchies
  • Soft bath time animals
  • A couple of outfits (you can never have enough outfits)
  • Baby Food 
  • Sensory Play Balls
  • Stacking Blocks
  • Stuffed frog and Bunny  
  • A Bible for babies (explaining the real meaning of Easter)
I somewhat got the idea from checking out one of my fellow blogger pages Kiki's Korner. She has so many great ideas to share with your little ones for the Easter Holidays!  I can't wait to try this one below (filling up the plastic eggs with small lunch items to snack on).  I will post pictures of how the basket came out and how our Easter Day went!  Have a Great Easter Holiday! He IS RISEN!




Happy Easter!

Which is Best for YOU???

Challenge Group or Gym/Personal Trainer

Which is best for you???

Many people have different needs.  However, here is a comparison of joining a challenge group vs. gym membership/personal trainer. 

 
For me joining the challenge group was my best decision.  As busy wife and new mom, going to a gym or fitness club was out of the question.  

What I look like carrying a baby to the gym... 

I needed that one on one personal assistance that a beach body coach can provide, I needed accountability,I needed help with what to eat and what not to eat, I needed someone relatable and I needed to get my workouts done while still able to tend to my new baby.   

If you think a challenge group may be right for you...
Message me for details for my next fitness group or clean eating groups!

Craving This? Try This Instead! (Shakeology Edition)

Shakeology Remakes
   

I absolutely love drinking Shakeology , it is by far the best meal replacement shake I have tried (and I have tried others).   My favorite Shakeology flavor is Chocolate (so yummy!) 




Shakeology contains the most potent superfoods and essential nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and fiber that is often stripped in high processed foods (and other shakes ).


 It contains 70 ingredients from whole food sources. Different kinds of nutrients you will find in just one glass of Shakeology which works to promote optimal daily health includes:

Protein and Amino Acids
Antioxidants
Phytonutrients
Adaptogens
Prebiotics
Digestive Enzymes



GOOD STUFF RIGHT?!


Well I don't know about you guys but I love my sweets and now that I have found a healthy way to endulge in my cravings and still get healthy benefits I take advantage of it! Check out these remakes I have for you all!


(Checkout how Chalene Johnson fix her Shamrock Shakeology)



My special drink when I am craving chocolate and mint or even Thin Mints!

Yes, you read that right "Thin Mints"


Oh! do not let me forget my all time favorite....
"You can never go wrong with a Reeses"

I often feel a little tropical at times and like to switch it up and try...
STRAWBERRY!



The Chocolate and Strawberry Shakeology are one of the 3 Flavors that I go back in forth with drinking daily! If you would like to try a $5 sample pack I have those as well! Leave a message below if you would like a sample!  

Do you want to try Shakeology? Do you want more tips on how to turn your health and fitness around? Would you like to lose a couple of pounds and feel great and confident about your accomplishments? Join me for my 30 day Shakeology and Clean Eating Group!  Comment " I am IN" below and I will send you the details!

Disclaimer: Just because these options of Eating Clean works for me doesn't mean it will work for others.  I just love assisting others in living healthy, sharing what I eat, workout programs I use, and results I get. I have a B.S degree in Health Education/Promotion but I am not a doctor/nurse, personal trainer, or hold any certifications (yet).

Please consult a professional before beginning any new program. I also have a blog about certain products I use and have used. I only blog about products I have tried or are currently using, and I always give my honest opinion. For more information on Clean Eating check out Tosco Reno (certified Nutritional Therapy practitioner) Clean Eating books and cook books! Or even The Gracious Pantry.
