October challenge group

I'm on the verge of starting a challenge group titled "Fall into Fitness." Participants choose their beachbody workout and shakeology flavor and are placed into our private Facebook group where we will share triumphs, struggles, recipes and help motivate each other! I am beyond excited to start helping others reach their fitness goals and just become healthy!! Want to join!? Comment below!!

I haven't posted measurements this week because I'm pretty sure I left my tape measure at my sisters, oops! I'll be sure to get them done next week as it is my FINAL week of T25 Alpha Phase. I'm excited and a tad scared to start beta!!

Now onto food, I'm always seeing/reading about people eating chicken sausage in pasta type dishes, do when I saw turkey sausage I thought is give it a whirl. It was amazing!! I was surprised to taste how good it was as I am not a fan of turkey. I just sliced it on top of string green beans with a little Romano cheese and delicious would be an understatement!!

Pumpkin heaven

I've been seeing everyone post about the infamous PSL (Pumpkin Spice Latte) and I've indulge a few (ok, about 8) times over the past week but no more! I stumbled upon a pumpkin pie shakeology recipe and I tried it today and its AMAZING! The consistency is great, taste is off the charts and it totally kicks my sweet tooth to the curb which is the biggest perk!

You could probably make it with vanilla too although I haven't tried it yet! If you want to purchase a shakeology sample comment or sent me an email! You won't be disappointed!! 

Never leaving home again, unless I take a fridge

I'm dreading taking my measurements this week. I was on vacation last week and surrounded by people who don't eat the way I do when I'm home... Needless to say, I'm sure all this progress I made is in the trash. I went to the store and bought a few things but it would have been a PITA to buy a bunch of food and only prepare it for myself. Ugh. Anyways, I didn't miss a workout so I'm happy for that. I plan on starting today or tomorrow training to run a 5k!!!

Happy Monday!

And vacation happened....

It's no secret that my sister and I are both hard on each others diets. I've been here visiting since Monday and my diet has been lacking. It's not "bad" by any means but its not near as good as it is at home and I can tell. I've still been working out but man oh man I can't wait to get home to start eating superb again. It's depressing. Although I am in control its a total PITA to buy a ton of groceries to prepare food for myself. Ugh. Anyways, enough of the pity party. 

I am planning on starting to train for a 5k. I feel if I add running into my daily routine it will help me de-stress and burn a few more calories!! Anyone have any good tips for preparing for a 5k?! Share!!!

September Goals

I started the month off right by getting in my workout this morning followed by Shakeology! I truly do love Shakeology for a number of reasons.  It's not a processes food, it's FULL of super foods and since it has probiotics in it, it's one less then I need to remember to take!!

Tomorrow I am headed off to visit my sister and I'm a little nervous. Whenever we are together our diets totally lack. I tend to eat a ton of sweets and junk! IF I have a oops day, I plan on doing a double workout. She is trying to eat healthier so I think I'll be ok. I'm 100% committed and I know everything is done in moderation so if I do slip up, I'll choose slip wisely. :)

I'll leave you with my goals for the month. Hoping I can achieve them all!
