Finishing the 2018 Fall Sprint...my biggest takeaways and lessons...

And just like that, the 2018 Fall Sprint is over!
.
There have been many lessons in the last couple of months, and it has been a blessing seeing my team improve and grow along the way.
.
Personally, my biggest transformations were from a mental and emotional standpoint.
.
The most impactful takeaways have helped me grow in such a big way, overcoming things I’ve battled with for years...
.
•The scale isn’t the sole indicator of your success...don’t let the numbers staring back at you leave you feeling defeated.
.
•You don’t have to fake it til you make it...it’s okay to take a moment to express your feelings and struggles, there’s more support around you than you think.
.
At the conclusion of the 8 weeks, I dropped 1 lb and 7 inches...I feel stronger physically, but mentally and spiritually lifted in so many ways.
.
I can’t wait to see what the new year has in store for me and the Phamily, I’m so grateful for you all!
.
If you’re on the fence about making a change in the New Year, I encourage you to start now! Join my team, it would be an honor to help you!

Mint Cookie Power Bites


Winter weather has me craving all things minty, so I decided to take a spin on my favorite chocolate chip cookie dough bites by using Andes baking chips instead of regular minis. A simple swap that’s just as delicious! Get the recipe below 👇🤩👇


Dry ingredients:
2 tbsp flax seed meal
2 tbsp coconut flour
1/2 cup Ice Cream Sandwich Level-1
2 tbsp Andes mint chips, chopped
Dash salt


Wet Ingredients:
3/4 cup smooth almond or peanut butter
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk


Instructions: Combine all dry ingredients together in a bowl, set aside. In a larger bowl, mix the almond butter, syrup and milk until a smooth batter forms. Next, fold in the dry ingredients with a spatula until well incorporated. The dough should be very similar to regular cookie dough! Roll rounded tablespoons into balls. Place in an air tight container and chill 2 hours before enjoying (or right away if you want lol)!


Makes ~18 power bites!

Apple Cinnamon Crumb Muffins

Cold weather always gets me in a baking mood, so when my Peach Crumble Muffins popped up on my blog page I decided to take a spin at a fall/winter version!
.
While peaches aren’t in season right now, Apples are so I made a few swaps in the original recipe for a delicious, healthy snack or to pair with another meal!
.
On a side note: *Incorporating more protein into my baking helps make sure I’m getting the amino acids my body needs to maintain lean muscle I work hard for in the gym (which in turn burns more fat)! I add eggs, egg whites, and high quality whey protein into my muffins, pancakes and other goodies to help meet my protein requirement each day!*
.
Here’s the recipe, I can’t wait to hear when you try them!
.
Dry ingredients:
1/2 cup almond flour
1 1/2 cup Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes Buttermilk Pancake Mix
3 scoops Level-1 Cinnamon Cookie Batter Protein
1/2 cup Lakanto Golden monkfruit sweetener (low glycemic natural 1:1 substitute for sugar!)
1 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
.
Combine all dry ingredients then set aside.
.
Wet ingredients:
2 large apples, cored, peeled and diced (I used Fuji 🍎)
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 whole egg
1/2 cup egg whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup Organic MCT oil
.
Next, add all wet Ingredients EXCEPT the apples to the dry mixture and stir until well combined. Then fold in the diced apple and put 1/4 cup of the batter in a pre-greased muffin pan.
.
Crumble topping:
You’ll need 3tbsp of softened butter, 2 tbsp cane sugar, 5 tbsp kodiak cakes~ plus a dash of cinnamon and salt. Use a fork to combine until a crumble mixture comes together.
.
Top with a teaspoon of the crumble topping, then pop in your preheated oven. Bake at 350F for about 18 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. 👌
.
Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes (if you can wait that long lol) and enjoy! This made a 18 Muffins! Perfect for prep or to share with those you love!

The Process isn’t Broken...

Don’t claim the process is broken when you haven’t consistently been implementing it.
.
This message is just as much for me as “the gram”, tough words but very true ones.
.
It’s easier to point the finger and blame circumstances for our failures, but when it comes down to it, can we say we have truly committed to doing the work, every step of the way?
.
I’m not implying becoming a machine in the gym and only eating the same 3 foods for weeks on end, but at the end of the day, can you look in the mirror and say that you’ve done everything you could control to move forward?
.
I’ll be the first to admit I haven’t on many occasions.
.
Life, stress and unexpected circumstances have come up, and I’ve allowed them to alter my mindset and drive.
.
That’s only human, it’s completely normal, but that doesn’t mean it should start a repeating cycle of excuses and self-imposed setbacks.
.
Get out of your own way by recognizing that the only way you can realize the goals you’ve set is by owning up when you fall short.
.
I have a long way to go physically, mentally and spiritually to get where I want to be.
.
It’s damn hard every day to stay “motivated” when I’m tired, stretched thin and feeling as if there’s no more to give.
.
What I’ve come to discover, is that in those moments, scraping for just a few more inches shows me what I’m truly capable of, and that the biggest competition I have is myself.
.
Strive to be better than you were yesterday, EVERY DAY!
.
It won’t be smooth sailing, the path to great things never are, but I can promise that the journey will be 100% worth it in the end.
