Is fast food really cheaper?

What is your excuse for eating fast food? Mine was It's CHEAPER than real food. It wasn't until after I started eating REAL food that I realized my excuse was just that....an excuse! It was an excuse for my laziness, and my need for instant gratification. Now that my family eats REAL food for every meal, we have the extra money to go out and create memories for our children, and to me that is more gratifying then a Big Mac and fries.

Challenge Packs

Each challenge pack includes, workout DVD of your choice, a 30 day supply of Shakeology, and a 30 free trial to the club membership saving you up to $54! Oh yeah and the most important part...... ME!!! Let’s face it, we all intend on eating healthy, and committing to a workout in the beginning, then something happens and we fall off the bandwagon, for one reason or another. TRUST me I know! I’m guilty of it too! Challenge packs are a great way to get the support and motivation you need, to get the body you not only want, but DESERVE!
Do you want to do a different DVD then the challenge I’m holding that month? DO IT! I’m here! I will set you up with a likeminded individual to help hold you accountable.

Tropical Shakeology!

Shakeology Tropical is being released Feb 14th! =) Vegan certified, using the highest form of plant protein---fermented sprouted brown rice. Ultra protein-the best of the best!! There are NO flavor enhancers in ANY shakeology flavor, it's all natural! Just an FYI, Shakeology is SO natural that it has certain harvests, it has an expiration date because there are no preservatives in it. So get it, drink and enjoy it! It's not meant to have a long shelf life, it's truly plants, super foods, minerals, amino acids, at the freshest they can be. The peak of your health is waiting! ;-) PS Shakeology Tropical tastes like strawberry banana!!

HEALTHY Chocolate pudding

Healthy Fat-Burning Chocolate Pudding:
(This recipe will make about 2-4 servings and is a great healthy dessert or late night snack)

• 1/2 of a ripe avocado (soft to touch)
• approx 3 tablespoons of almond butter (preferably raw if possible)
• approx 1/4 cup of unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk (preferably organic)
• 2 heaping tablespoons of organic cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
• 1 packet of stevia (or enough to your desired sweetness level)
• 1/2 to 3/4 of a scoop of chocolate Shakeology
• just a small pinch of sea salt

Put the avocado and almond butter into a bowl and mash together with a fork until smooth.  Then add all of the other ingredients into the bowl and mix together vigorously until all is mixed and smooth.  If you’re good with a food processor, you can use that too, but I just mash everything together by hand.
If everything went right, the consistency will be similar to pudding… except normal pudding makes you FAT with loads of sugar!  My healthy pudding recipe will actually HELP you to burn fat, control cravings, and satisfy your body’s need for micro-nutrients, protein, healthy fats, and fiber.
If the pudding ends up too thick, simply add a bit more almond milk or coconut milk for more moisture until the consistency seems right.
