This past weekend I experienced my first music festival, Big Barrel in Dover, Delaware.  We were able to see Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Lynrd Skynrd and many others.  It was a super fun and a much needed get-away.  Get-Away was the key word!!  I got away from all of my healthy eating habits too!! If following the 21 Day Fix eating plan, it would have been a weekend full of cheats and yellows.  I had loaded baked potato, pulled pork sandwiches, fries and Olive Garden Pasta.  I'm coming clean!  I don't feel guilty because it doesn't happen all the time, but I don't feel GOOD!  My body is mad at me and I can feel it.  I stepped on the scale this morning and saw a 5lb weight gain!!!  Ahhhh!!  Five pounds of bloat and crap in just three days!  Not exactly the souvenir I was hoping for... So, now what do I do???  I hop right back on my routine.  I'm beginning the 21 Day Fix Extreme today along with my running.  I will be factoring my runs into my

To say the last few days have been BUSY would be an understatement!!  We took a day trip to North Carolina on Saturday to spend some time with family.  It was a great but long trip!  It's always nice to be in the country with family.  The pace is slower and sweet tea is king. Then Sunday, we had a six mile run planned.  Now last week was the FIRST time I had ever run over two miles without stopping to walk for a little of it.  So I was STILL VERY nervous about it all!!  Could I still complete 5 like I had done the previous week?  Could I add one MORE mile?  Well WE DID IT!!  The last mile was rough but it went a lot better than the week before.  I use a heart rate monitor and it sat steady around 180 for my 5 miler and this week is sat at 160-170 until the last mile then went up a little.  My breathing had quicken so it didn't surprise me that it rose. Next weekend, I'll be at a country music festival and I'm not sure of where we will be located an

Alright...so I'm not the best jokester!  However, I know that Shakeology has absolutely changed my life.  I've been drinking it for a year and a half and my health has been completely transformed!  It helps me to stay focused and on track with wanting  the healthy options.  So I'm sharing some of my favorite Shakeo recipes with you today ;-) Oranges and Cream -Vanilla Shakeology -1 container of Orange Greek Yogurt -1/2 banana -8 oz water -4 oz of your favorite non-dairy milk -ice Blend everything together... Oranges and Cream in a Flash -Water -1/4 cup plain greek yogurt -Natural Orange juice -Vanilla Shakeo Shake it up-- make sure your water and juice is really cold.

We have officially begun year two of Beachbody coaching in my house.  It's hard to believe that I've been on this journey for this long and have just as much excitement as day one.   It's gone by so fast and what a fun ride it's been. Some things I've learned/experienced throughout this year: -Beachbody can be whatever you choose it to be.  If you are interested in an income producing hobby this can be it or it can be your Plan A too.  You can early as little or as much depending on the time you choose to put in to it. -It is a REAL company; which means you have to do REAL work to make money.  This takes dedication and consistency, just like a healthy lifestyle, in order to get results.  A lot of people see multi-level marketing as get-rich-quick schemes.  Well, I'm not rich, but I will tell you I have vision, and Beachbody is a huge part of that vision. -The main investment you will make is in yourself.  I signed up with a challenge pack purchase, so my $39.
