Core de Force rocked my world

So you all know I was doing a new workout program last month, right?  Well it completely changed me in more ways than just physical.

I discovered I CAN do different workouts and like them, even when they are hard and not something I'm used to.  I had to learn new moves and feel uncomfortable doing them.  They weren't my normal squats, lunges and burpees.  I had to learn to throw punches and kicks!  It was way out of my comfort zone!


I discovered I CAN follow a meal plan, even during the holidays when there are sweets around me.  I just have to plan ahead and follow through.  I learned that meal prepping is key to me staying on track, but I can do it in an hour or so one day a week and that makes my whole week easier!

I discovered that I need my personal development to get me through those tough days when the workouts were longer and I wasn't sure if I was going to make it.  Personal development keeps my mind strong, makes me tell myself that I can do anything!

Physically, I got stronger, leaner and gained endurance!  I lost 1 pound through the whole month - not much, but the changes in my body were totally worth it and I don't really like the scale anyway!  It changes everyday for me and I have learned that it is all about how I feel!



My stomach leaned out and my arms got a little bigger - but I can do crazy push-ups now, I can last for over an hour to do 2 workouts if I want, my clothes fit better and I am way more confident than before I started the program!

Homemade Chicken Nuggets

I love chicken nuggets!!  When I used to go to McDonalds it was what I got probably 75% of the time!  They are just amazing.  And the sweet and sour dipping sauce...oh so good! 😋 But now that I don't eat at McDonalds anymore, I have to make them at home.  There are so many you can buy at the store - quick and easy to throw in the oven and they have all kinds of different shapes - dinosaurs, stars, hearts, probably whatever you wanted! But who knows what the heck is in those store bought ones....so I had to find a recipe that I could make at home.  I have come across many that I like but I always wanted them to be crispy and not soggy when I make them in the oven.  It has taken some time, but I think I have found the right combination!!  YES!! So here we go.  I hope you all enjoy them as much as we do! You will need: 4 chicken breasts 1 cup pickle juice (yes really) 1 cup flour paprika pepper 3 eggs 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs Directions: Cut up chicken into your d

Chocolate protein bars

This is one of my most favorite recipes that I have adapted to fit our families needs and make on a weekly basis.  It provides protein and carbs to keep you full and satisfied for the morning!   Our kids literally have this breakfast every day and if I don't have them made, the kids are quite upset. They call them chocolate bars but that's very deceiving because there's not really much chocolate in it! These take 10 minutes max to make and then time in the fridge to set.  1+ cup natural peanut butter (I like Skippy) 1 cup local honey (for allergy sakes!) 1 1/3 cup oatmeal 3 scoops chocolate protein powder (I use Orgain) 1 scoop chocolate Shakeology (if you don't have this, just do 5 scoops of protein powder) Then I dump in some flax seeds and chia seeds - not measured Heat peanut butter and honey on stove together.  Add in your other ingredients and mix well Spread in a container (I use a 9x13 Pyrex). Place in fridge overnight or freezer for an hou

Cookie dough balls

I saw this picture of what looked like cookie dough on my friends facebook page - she said she made it with Shakeology!  It absolutely looked amazing in the bowl, just like cookie dough.  And then she rolled it into balls for a quick snack - or in my kids case, BREAKFAST 😊 I modified her recipe a little bit and according to my husband I need to modify it a little bit more.  I thought they were good and the kids scarfed them down.  I guess if you don't like coconut at all, then you need to modify it as well - I'll tell you how I intend to but I can't promise anything at this point! Making these with Shakeology allows you to get 70+ amazing ingredients including superfoods, vitamins, protein, pre/probiotics, adaptogens, digestive enzymes....you know all that good for you stuff that most of us don't get on a daily basis and probably don't even know what it all is!  The way Shakeology is made though, the nutrients get delivered to you as a whole food (dried)
