Happy Thursday! 💕 This week has been so different for me. I started training on Monday and my body is still adjusting to all of these new changes! One major new change for me is that I have to dress business casual everyday that I have training! 🙈 If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I love my activewear! You also know that I really don’t ever wear makeup! This photo sums up how all of that makes me feel! ☺️ It’s been such a transition for me to go from no makeup and activewear to business casual clothing, having to do my hair, and wearing makeup! I’m so not used to it! Luckily, I’ve been LOVING training and everyone who I’ve met within the company are just so amazing. I can honestly say that I am so happy where I’m at! 😄 This is my first big girl, full-time job and I was so nervous about starting. Based on my experience so far, I feel that I am in the right place! ✨ I just got home from work, so now I’m going to go and change into some comfy clothes, relax a little, and eat some dinner because I’m starving! 🥑 Are you an activewear lover or do you like getting dressed up? 👟

Happy Wednesday and happy first day of Spring! 🌷 I didn’t even realize today was the first day of Spring until one of my colleagues mentioned it! 🤦🏽‍♀️ Yesterday, I decided to do my workout at the gym and not at home! It was a REALLY short workout focusing on back exercises because we went at night and I needed to get home on time to get my 8 hours of sleep! Some people can function perfectly fine with 6 hours of sleep, but not me. I need my 8 hours! 😴 I was only able to record 2 exercises because there were a bunch of people at the gym. Remember that if you’re unsure of how much weight to lift, start with a really light weight as a warm-up, and then work your way up to a weight where you maintain proper form while challenging yourself! 💪🏽 Here’s what I did yesterday! • Warm-up • Lat pulldown: 3 x 12 (3 sets of 12 repetitions) Reverse cable cross-overs: 3 x 12 Wide grip barbell bent-over row: 3 x 12 Weight plate back fly: 3 x 12 • Cool-down

New post is up on the blog! 🌟 I know you all voted for having more savory recipes, but I want to share just one more sweet recipe! These are my fudgy almond butter pecan blondies. Y’all, the fudge factor is REAL with these! 🤤 Honestly, the hardest part about this recipe is waiting for the blondies to cool down. You’ll want to dig in to them immediately, but you really need to wait because they’ll be easier to handle and won’t break as easy! I have to say that they actually get better when you refrigerate them. They’re full of yummy vanilla flavor with chopped pecans mixed into the batter! 😋 I know some of you have messaged me about subbing the banana with something else, so I’ll soon be testing out this recipe and my double chocolate brownie recipe with apple sauce as a banana substitute. If it works out, I’ll be adding that to both recipes and will let you all know. 👍🏽 Click on the link in my bio and click on the first tab to check out this recipe! 💕

Happy Monday! 💕 Today was my first day at training and I was pretty excited, but also a little nervous! I just didn’t know what to expect, but I had such a good day! It was definitely information overload, but my day was so fun! ✨ This weekend, we whipped up our favorite meal, which has been on repeat here at our house. We literally eat this every single weekend! 😍 It’s just some simple meat sauce (recipe is on the blog) with @cappellos paleo fettuccine. I decided to top mine with @ilovecellocheese organic parmesan cheese that I bought recently from @costco. IT’S SO GOOD! 🙌🏽 Cheese that comes in a shaker bottle is usually filled with a bunch of weird ingredients, but this one only contains simple ingredients. Plus, the cheese is made from milk from pasture-raised cows! 👏🏽 I don’t do well with a lot of cheese, but I’m totally fine having a little bit every once in a while. This meal never fails to hit the spot! 🤤

Happy Sunday and Happy St. Patrick’s Day! ☘️ I’m really excited, and also a little nervous, about starting my training at my new workplace tomorrow! ☺️ I’ll be meeting lots of new people and I’m stoked! This week, my meal prep seemed to be much easier than last week. I’m not a meal prep pro, so it’s going to take a while for me to figure it all out! I decided to meal prep on Saturday instead of today because I wanted to be able to have a little time for myself. I shared my meal prep and my planned meals over on my IG stories yesterday, and I’ll probably continue doing that every week! 👍🏽 I bought some @hatchchileco medium salsa and unseasoned rotisserie chicken to make some salsa chicken for the week. I decided to make some mini salmon patties for my lunch on Friday and used @wildplanet wild pink salmon. They came out so good, so I’ll probably be sharing a recipe for them soon! 😋 For my breakfast for the week, I bought this @cecesnoodle organic butternut squash noodles to add into my frittata! 🍳 I stocked up on my favorite @birchbenders paleo waffles and some @gtskombucha! 🙌🏽 I found this @coyo_organic dairy-free natural yogurt at my local @naturalgrocers and decided to purchase it since it’s a larger tub! It says it holds 2 servings, but I’ll probably be able to get 4 out of it. Of course, we bought some @cappellos baked crust pizza and @fettucine because my boyfriend and I just can’t get enough pizza and fettuccine with meat sauce! 🙈 Everything rose is just the usual stuff! I hope everyone is having an awesome Sunday! ✨

New post is up on the blog! 🌟 This week was all about getting my workouts in quick and not spending too much time on them! I’ve been prepping for my training coming up next week for my new job, which requires me to do some reading and gathering paperwork. I wanted to make sure that I was able to get my workout in quick so that I could get back to whatever I needed to do. ✨ I decided to do 2 HIIT workouts and 2 circuit workouts. I did a bodyweight HIIT workout and a kettlebell HIIT workout. 💦 For the circuit workouts, I decided to do an upper body and a lower body workout. If you have basic gym equipment at home, these workouts are perfect! 💪🏽 If you do have a gym membership, even better! Remember to always modify your workouts to fit your fitness level!

*FAVORITE PRODUCT FRIDAY* I am soooo excited that my local @sprouts started carrying these @birchbenders paleo waffles! 🤩 It’s really difficult to find freezer waffles without any added sugar. I personally don’t feel the need to have added sugar in the waffles because I’m going to add some maple syrup on them anyway! 🍁 I don’t mind waffles that use natural added sugar, but I prefer these. I’ve tried other paleo waffles before, but they never lived up to the crispy waffle-ness! They’d either end up being too soggy or would burn easily. 👎🏽 These are the BOMB! 🤤 They crisp up so perfectly in my mini oven! I always like to buy multiple boxes of them because my local Sprouts always runs out of them really quickly. I always gotta have some on hand because we love to have these on the weekend or when we just need a super quick breakfast option during the week! 🙌🏽 If you have been looking for some paleo waffles without any added sugar, I highly recommend these! 💕

New post is up on the blog! 🌟 Today I’m sharing all about my go-to natural remedies for when I’m feeling sick! 🍃 If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I LOVE natural remedies! 💗 When I’m feeling like I might be getting sick, or if I’m already sick, I ALWAYS reach for natural remedies first because they are so effective and powerful! 🙌🏽 I am one of those people who just does all the natural things all at once, so I honestly would not be able to tell which of these remedies has worked individually for me. 🙉 I want to note that these are just natural remedies that have worked for me, but that doesn’t mean it will work for everyone! Most of these products I can find at my local Sprouts or Natural Grocers, but that’s because those are the two grocery stores that I shop at all the time!

Happy Wednesday! ✨ Y’all, Instagram has not been working all day for me! I haven’t been able to reply back to comments and I haven’t been able to post anything on IG stories! Plus, my DM’s have been erased! 😩 I‘ve been trying to upload my workout videos here on my feed for the longest time, but it never worked! 😭 I’m hoping these issues get resolved ASAP! Instead of my workout, here’s what I had for lunch today. This meal prep has really been coming in clutch all week! 🙌🏽 I basically had a repeat of what we ate for dinner last night! 🙈 I’ve got some cilantro lime cauliflower and broccoli rice, beef barbacoa, pico de gallo, avocado, and a generous drizzle of a jalapeño, cilantro, and lime sauce. 🤤 You can find the recipe for cilantro lime cauliflower rice and the beef barbacoa on my blog! To crisp up the barbacoa, I reheated it in my @breville mini oven by broiling it on low for about 8 minutes or so. Soooo good! 😍 For the sauce, I just combined some @primalkitchen mayo, jalapeño, cilantro, lime, black pepper, garlic powder, and a tiny bit of water using an immersion blender. Here’s how I usually make my pico de gallo! 👇🏽 • 🍅 Mild Pico de Gallo: 4 large Roma tomatoes, diced 1 deseeded jalapeño, diced 3 tbsp finely chopped cilantro 1/2 small red onion, diced Juice from 2 limes Himalayan salt, to taste Black pepper, to taste
