Shakeology Rice Krispies/ Healthy Cocoa Rice Krispies

Alright, well Health(i e r) Rice Krispies at least. So I normally don't buy cereal, but after the holidays I made Peanut Butter Chocolate Rice Krispie Balls (say that shiz 5x fast, yeesh) and I had some left over cereal.

And like any normal person (right???) I had some. And a light bulb went off. Why not turn what's normally not good for you into your HEALTHIEST MEAL OF THE DAY! 

Hint: Shakeology is my healthiest meal of the day ;-) All those nutrients, veggies, antioxidants, probiotics, yeahhhhh its my jam. My health jam. 

So watchu need:

A bowl.

A spoon.

Rice Krispies

Shakeology--about 1/2 a scoop  (if you do a full scoop, it will be VERY chocolately)

Then you eat it. and then you come back here and thank me. Because it tastes like Coco Krispies. But it's not half as bad! 

I wouldn't recommend you make this an everyday breakfast option. I don't make cereal a habit in my home and its rare I ever have it. Thats the first cereal I've had in a year! It's full of sugars, even the ones not listed. So be careful!

Enjoy!

21 Day Fix Workout Challenge with Meal Plan and Portion sizes

So, I uhh… got a question for you that could really change how you approach your health and fitness goals. You ready?

How would you like to lose up to 15lbs in 21 days? 

I signed the dotted line and I'm in. 

But it's not just about weight loss. How would you like to have VISIBLE results in 21 days? One of the biggest complaints I've heard, and experienced, about starting new workout programs is that we don't see results as quick as we want. I know that impatience isn't going to get us anywhere and instant gratification results can be temporary, but seeing progress early on prompts you to want to keep going! 

And with this program, the results aren't temporary. It's based on the idea that it takes 21 days to MAKE and BREAK habits. That means, over eating, not planning out your meals, drinking soda, ya know the bad stuff we usually fall victim to.

The 21 Day Fix is an at home workout program based on MEAL PLANNING and PREPPING with a focus on PORTION CONTROL and 30 minute workouts. 

That means three of our biggest downfalls when it comes to eating right is planning our meals, prepping and portion control. And what does that mean? 21 DAY FIX tackles it HEAD ON. 

You not only follow a workout program for 30 mins a day (can be modified to ANY Fitness level), but you also get portion controlled containers that are color coded for your meals, a meal plan, 30 day supply of Shakeology (the best thing out there, trust me learn more HERE), and the best part? You get to be in my 21 Day Fitness group on FB Called "Sweaty Chicks and Armpits" (you have to be on FB to participate, however if you do not have one I will work one on one with whoever needs my help). 

Watch the Preview here to get an idea of what I'm talking about: 

Looks pretty amazing right? It is. I just got mine, and oh baby, I cannot wait to get started!

But you can bet your sweet face I'm not doing it alone. I want to gather a group of women who are READY to take back their fitness, learn about meal planning and prepping, and women who are ready to see the results they work for. I don't know about you, but anything longer than 30 mins for a tough workout is hard to fit in the schedule. Don't get me wrong, I still do longer workouts, but because I enjoy it. I realize that many people don't like to workout, or feel like they have NO IDEA what they're doing and The 21 Day Fix is honestly a great start. And in our group we're going to stick together, share our meals, and keep each other focused. I've already got my first group starting, and I'm opening up one more this month and then that is it ;-)

So if you want to join us apply HERE to be in the challenge group
and

21 Day Fix takes all the guesswork out of weight loss. There's no counting, no guessing, and no wondering. Just easy-to-follow portion control and one 30-minute workout per day. That's all.

In 21 days, you could get beach-ready for a vacation. Look drop-dead great at your upcoming reunion. Or jump-start a major weight-loss goal. It's simple, it's fast, and it works.

From Blonde to Brunette- Transformation Station!

So I decided to take the brunette plunge (again). I did it back in 2010 and I wen't WAY too dark for my skin tone and eyes, I practically went BLACK. I was trying to look like Megan Fox, not gana lie. But her voluptuous lips make the package…. and that I do not have. And my skin tone is like pale normally hahah so I gotta work with what I got.

I figured I was closer to my homegirl Miley, but pre blonde hack job, that honestly she really does rock. I don't know what it is about Miley, but she knows how to work a crowd. So I wen't with this picture:

And as most blondes know, if you go to your hair stylist and tell them that you want to go from blonde to brown or darker, they get SUPER nervous. They know its a huge change for us, but my girl Dalece was ALL in. She's a dare devil ;-) So we got to mixing, or rather she did, I sat there going, "holy crap I won't be blonde, COOL!!" IT was time for CHANGE ya know? Different season, different hair do ;-)

So this is how it came out! 

P.S. My hair feels a lot healthier… the first picture I just blew dry it and flipped it out. The after picture, I used my curling wand =)

Are you considering changing your hair color? If you do comment below and add a pic! 

Ciao!

Design Your Life Twenty Somethings!

So I've been in what I call my quarter life crisis (or its the birth control or it's just that your twenties are like your adolescent teen years but for adult hood) … it usually comes around the age I am now, 25 and it's a little intimidating even trying to imagine the next 5 years until 30!

But when I think back to when I was a kid, I couldn't even imagine the age I am now.. I couldn't imagine leaving home, paying all my bills, especially rent, taxes, trying to find the right job for me… it just seemed so far away and the comfort of being at home with minimal worries like, "Will Ashley invite me to her birthday?" was my biggest concern.


But as I ventured into my twenties, (and even got married young right after high school then divorced by 24), I was slapped with REALITY. I don't think high school can prepare you for the REAL WORLD (what a shame too, all those years… and I still wasn't ready) like jobs, bills, how to have successful relationships, mental and emotional health… did I even mention physical health?

Here's the thing.

I've heard it time and time again… "You're only 20 something, YOU'VE GOT TIME!! WHY ARE YOU SO WORRIED, Whats the RUSH?" 

I realize there's time. I get that. But time isn't something we can control, it's not something you can borrow, buy, give back, take back, reverse, or speed up. Time is out of our hands, the only control you have over time is what you do with each moment.

I've seen and talked to so many people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s. And YES, a lot them have lives they are enthusiastic about and feel true happiness. Isn't that what we are REALLY after anyway?

But I've also had my fair share of those who aren't all that thrilled with the path they have been on… and I'm a FIRM believer that the choices you made YESTERDAY shape your TODAY… and the choices you make TODAY shape your TOMORROW.

What really drives me insane is the jokes about our generation, that were lazy and narcissist… it may ring true for some in our generation, but applying a label like that to define us all is ridiculous.. our generation will soon be leading this country, don't we deserve a chance to place our own labels?

Like: ENTREPRENUER, DO-ER, PHILANTHROPIC, WRITERS, LEADERS, DREAMER? I mean there's so many to choose from that could better describe us, do not place a negative label on the people who CAN and WILL make a difference.

Our twenties are a time to figure out what WE WANT-- in our careers, who we want to befriend, where we want to travel, who we want to date or eventually marry, how much money we want to save, invest or spend, where we want to work, for how long, what kind of income we want to attract, our religious beliefs, our values, our priorities.

Our twenties are the many wonderful and colorful spools of yarn that we begin to sew into the tapestries of our lives… we have to carefully choose each thread and needle to design our lives so that our futures are what we CREATED them to be.

So if you're reading this in your twenties, and maybe you're wondering and thinking to yourself, "What do I want? Who do I want to be? Where do I Want to work?" and all of life's gnawing questions, watch this video below…

Your twenties means ACT NOW. It doesn't mean figure it out in your thirties. This is YOUR life. How will you DECIDE it?
