MEAL PREP

Being prepared is pretty much the most important thing about living a healthy lifestyle. If your food is not prepared then you prepare to fail. 😲😲😲😲Before meal prepping, I would grab whatever I found at the store and of course its not always easy to pick something healthy outside when you've got a bunch of temptations around you. Fast food was always cheap to grab, but it is alot cheaper to prepare your meals than it is to buy something every time!! That money adds up!

Im pretty simple:

-Chicken diced up 

-sweet potato (or rice) (i typically just microwaved it for 5-7 minutes)

-boiled eggs!!!! easy protein on the go

-veggie egg muffins if you want to get fancy😇

Meals for me were pretty quick (i hate refridgerating things id rather eat them super fresh):

every morning id cook oats for a minute and a half with water, add berries, throw it in a to go cup and done!!! Of course on the weekends I had more time to sit and eat peacefully without rushing out the door. Thats when I made protein pancakes my favvv 💕💕💕💕

PROTEIN PANCAKES:

1/2 cup oats

1 whole egg

1 egg white

protein powder

water to mix

super easy 123!! MY fav!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Of course with herbalife tea to give me energy in the morning!

Exercise is only a small portion of success when it comes to fitness. The main battle is making sure you eat super clean and how do you do that?😬😬😬 By preparing your meals in advanced and always making sure you've snacks available. 

I like to keep my meals as easy as 123! Or quick less than 5 minute meals in the morning like the oats in a cup, or grab som waffles and boiled eggs done!!!! 😇

Also snacks are very important to keep the metabolism going. 👊👊My favorites are yogurt, of course fruits are the easiest to grab, quest bars are the best, and boiled eggs!!!💪💪💪💪

For lunch I always just grabbed some of the chicken that I prepared for the week and put my salads in a container with dressing on the side. 👌👌👌Seriously this took less than 2 minutes! Its just that simple. You can do it in the morning or the night before, regardless it doesnt take long to just stuff lettuce and chicken in a container. 😏

Grocery List

Keep in mind that is is MY grocery list and simply everything that only I like to eat! It may seem a little limited for many, but of course there's much more that can be added to this list. However, if it is not on my grocery list its either because I don't like it or don't like to spend time preparing it and therefore don't eat it. With that being said, this is MY grocery list and what I personally like. It's really not that interesting and I like to keep things simple.

Skincare Routine

I went through some time where my skin was breaking out horribly in 2014. Granted, I never had clear skin to begin anyway during my teenage years. I went through a lot of changes, I had graduated college and moved states, so all that change took a toll on my skin. My skin was so bumpy and disgusting. I felt like I had to cover up with makeup, which just ended up looking cakey. Gross! 😥 I felt like a horrible monster. I just wanted to hide.

Then, my sister told me to use Proactiv Plus. I really didnt think it was going to work given that their original line dried my skin out like crazy, however no other duane reade products were working so I figured I had nothing to lose. (Always good to have that money back guarantee). Well as you can see, it worked wonders for me. I can leave the house without makeup and my skin is one less thing to worry about!!! 

NO makeup!!

As you all know its a 3 step system, cleanse, tone, and moisturize. To be honest, I hardly ever use the mask because my skin is already clear enough lol but sometimes ill use it as a spot treatment. Love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I dont sell proactiv by any means, just sharinf what worked for me!!

Favorite Oatmeal 123 go

This is actually my typical breakfast and I love it so much because it gives me energy as well keep me full for a good 3 hours. I dont have much time in the morning to eat breakfast, so I make this in less than 2 minutes, put in a disposal cup and grab a plastic spoon. I pretty much eat this on the go. (Of course you could use containers if you dont want to waste plastic cups, but I like it when clean up is 123)

1/2 cup oats (40grams)

little soymilk/almond milk just to moisten

1/2 cup blueberries/strawberries whatever you like!

and 1 tsp of almond butter

Sometimes i add goji berries... :)

I find with this it doesnt need any extra 

sweetners, but you could always use truvia
