FREE FACEBOOK CHALLENGE GROUP

Hi everyone! Over the past few months I have made some very big changes in my fitness and eating habits. My husband and I made the decision after my son was born to start living a more active and healthier lifestyle. It was the best decision I could have ever made! I have decided to start sharing what I have learned with others. I have learned so much from others in my journey to get healthier and as a result have lost almost 40 pounds!!! 

*

I am looking for women to join with me to get fit and healthy. I am still on my journey to get fit and accountability is everything! I would like to take this journey with others and support them as they reach their health and fitness goals too! 

*

I will be hosting a FREE Fit & Happy Mommas Fitness and Clean Eating Challenge Group on Facebook! Date is to be determined based on the number of people interested :) Together we can help create the changes you are looking for!!

Please contact me if you are interested :)

Quick and Easy Shrimp Stir Fry

This is a recipe I made up the other day for lunch! I needed to use up stuff we had in the house and was in a rush to eat. I didn't know it would come out so delicious! I made it again today to have my husband try it and see what he thought. HE LOVED IT!! And he hates shrimp! Haha! What I love about this recipe is that you could use chicken or steak if you wanted and it would still be 21 Day Fix approved! Give this recipe a try and comment below on what you think :)

21 Day Fix Chili

My husband and I LOVE chili! It's one of our favorite things to have during the week in the Winter. Something about having a nice warm bowl of chili is good for the soul! But, the recipe we used to make was definitely not the healthiest. Thank goodness for the 21 Day Fix program and nutrition guide. In the 21 Day Fix Extreme guide is this Turkey Chili recipe. It's delicious! My husband and I think it's even better than the unhealthy version we used to make. And my daughter, Maddie was obsessed with it! She kept asking for more and more and more. It was too funny! This recipe is a must try if you love chili and comfort food! 

1 tsp olive oil

1 1/2 lbs ground turkey

1 medium onion

1 medium green bell pepper, chopped

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 1/2 tsp ground cumin

1 Tbsp chili powder

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (to taste; optional)

2 (15 oz) cans black beans (or pinto beans) drained, rinsed

1 (15 oz) can all-natural diced tomatoes, no sugar added

12 fresh cilantro sprigs, finely chopped (for garnish; optional)

Directions

1. Heat oil in large sauce pan over medium-high heat
2. Add turkey, onion, bell pepper, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 8 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink
3. Add cumin, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper; cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute
4. Add beans and tomatoes (with liquid). Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low; gently bio, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until thickened.
5. Serve warm, sprinkle with cilantro.

21 Day Fix Containers: 1/2 Green, 1 Red, 1/2 Yellow

***This is a great recipe for a CROCKPOT MEAL! You can also make this ahead of time and place in a freezer ziplock bag (gallon size after it's cooled) and freeze for later! Makes meal prep a lot easier!***

I LOVE the 21 Day Fix Extreme upper fix workout! I can tell my upper body is getting stronger everyday. When I first started the 21 Day Fix I was lucky to do 1 push-up. Now, I can do about 10-15 before taking a break! Hard work is paying off!
