Not seeing the results you'd like to? It might be because your body is in starvation mode!!
You MUST eat !!
YES, carbs can be your friend too. Rolled oats for the win!! Your breakfast does not have to be sugar packed. Avoid this by making it yourself.
It doesnt have to be complicated.
Basic Rolled Oats and Berries Recipe:
1. Bring water to a boil in small pot, stir in your oats (rolled or steel cut). 1/2 cup of oats to 3 cups of water 2. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook oats until soft, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. 3. If all the liquid has reduced before your oats are tender, stir in a bit more water or almond milk and continue to cook. 4. Add a few sprinkles of cinnamon, a pinch of himalayan rock salt, and tsp of coconut oil. 5. Pour into a bowl and stir in strawberries. No sugar needed ! Enjoy !
Morning madness means you NEED to simply things. This is why, always without fail, I have a smoothie every single Morning.
It's fast, it's healthy, and it gets the job done !!
This is a very berry Smoothie and I decide to add organic greek yogurt which I never do because I try to avoid most dairy, but sometimes I really need to add that extra protein with an awesome creamy, zingy taste.
Heres the recipe:
*I always use a Nutribullet to blend! It's my favorite thing ever and I just recently upgraded to a Nutribullet RX: it's so worth the investment - it makes the smoothies sooooo much better - see it here:
- Handful of Blueberries
- 7 large Strawberries
- 3 tbsps of greek yogurt
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 raw beet (buy them already ringlet version)
- 1 scoop of Strawberry Shakeology
- 4 pineapple chunks
- ice
Blend away and enjoy ! Cute mason jar cup always helps ! Love a cute CUPPIE or mug! Share your mugs with me - tag me!!
Sometimes...I'll have ice cream for breakfast. Yes, you read that right ! A healthy version that is ;-)
Pretty Pink Ice Cream/Smoothie:
- Frozen Bananas
- One scoop Strawberry Shakeology
- Few splashes Almond Milk
- Raw Beet
*Blend together until you get the consistency you want! The less of the milk you use, the more it'll be like an ice cream texture. If you use more almond milk, it will be like a smoothie.
Next up....Healthy Banana Chocolate Pudding! Basically, a smoothie in a bowl !
Recipe:
- 1 cup Frozen bananas

Along with smoothies and bowls, I always love a pretty parfait !
