Welcome to October and our Fired Up Fit Club! We are talking BIG goals and how to reach them, reverse engineering our goals with daily check-ins to keep us focused! But it’s not the destination, it’s the journey - and this month’s journey is going to be GREAT: over 75 workout programs to choose from, two nutrition plans to follow and a community of supporters to cheer you on along the way! Here are some things to look forward to this month! 🔥 Mondays are for sharing successes and goal-setting tips! 🔥 Tuesdays are for slow cooker recipes to keep your meal prep simple, healthy, and HOT! 🔥 Wednesdays we are Sounding the Alarm and celebrating one another! 🔥 On Thursdays we are going to talk about mental health and stressors, and assess how we are doing! 🔥 Fridays are for pep talks + inspiring each other to take our healthy habits into the weekend! 🔥 On Saturdays, we will Shake It Up and share our favorite superfood shake recipes! 🔥 ...and SUNDAYS, we are highlighting foam rolling with a Stop, Drop and Roll day! What goal have you been trying to reach but just haven’t yet? Where could you use more support in your health or wellness? I have the info ready to share + a spot just waiting for you! Happy fall, y’all! Whenever I am feeling MEH or not excited about my day, there is one personal development powerhouse I can turn to - Mel Robbins! For me, I always thought my lack of success was because of a lack of motivation. But listening to Mel, and improving my routine + habits each day from this incredible community, helped me realize that motivation is not “the thing”. Get fired up with Mel and listen to this quick clip of her explaining why motivation is not going to be enough to get us to our goals! https://youtu.be/_BNDdamTDak What’s one takeaway you have from her speech? I’d love to chat more about what inspires you when motivation just isn’t cutting it! Time to shake up a cake flavor favorite - Red Velvet! Yum!
Deep chocolatey flavor, with a gorgeous red color, we love a piece of Red Velvet cake! In smaller form, a red velvet cake pop with a cream cheese frosting - yes, please! We will always support a good treat (no “NO FOOD” here), but we would love to give you a Red Velvet superfood recipe to fix your cravings when a daily piece of red velvet cake just doesn’t meet your #GOALS. This decadent Red Velvet Smoothie featuring our creamy, chocolate superfood mix gets its classic crimson hue from a surprising ingredient. It’s gorgeous + delicious! Would you give this a try? Red Velvet Chocolate Shakeology INGREDIENTS 1 cup unsweetened almond milk 1 cup ice 1 scoop Chocolate Shakeology 1 medium cooked beet, peeled, cooled, coarsely chopped 1 Tbsp. mascarpone cheese ½ tsp. balsamic vinegar INSTRUCTIONS Place almond milk, ice, Shakeology, beet, cheese, and vinegar in blender; cover. Blend until smooth.

Let's Get FIT this Fall!Welcome to September and our Fit for Fall Virtual Fit Club! We are taking it back to basics this month: fitness, nutrition, and taking time to get FIT, inside and out! You are invited to be a part of an online community where daily physical activity, whole, clean eating, and supportive, positive energy is the GOAL! Let’s see what we’re doing each day! 💪 Mondays are for building our Fit Fall Mindset! Gratitude journaling, setting an intentional schedule, taking time to learn + grow each day, all those mindfulness things we need! 💪 Tuesdays are for coming TOGETHER, as a community and lifting each other up with connection prompts + and team challenges! 💪 Wednesdays are for Wellness and sharing our best wellness tips for the fall season! 💪 On Thursdays, we are going Back to School for Top Marks! Look for fun quizzes and challenges to get your highest score! 💪 Fridays are for Fall Food Favorites! Our healthiest fall recipes, including tons of options that follow our nutrition plans! 💪 On Saturdays, we will step it up! Sitting is the new smoking, so we are going to challenge each other to get our steps in! 💪 Finally, Sundays will be for self-care, slowing down as we reflect on the past week and plan for a new one! How are you feeling about your fitness right now? Could a 30 Day Fit Girl/Fit Fall Challenge be exactly what you need? I have the info ready to share + a spot just waiting for you! Walking is an incredible first step to a healthier lifestyle. It is an easy and effective way to increase daily activity levels and add additional calorie burn to your weight-loss journey! Outside of scale goals, if you are walking and moving, you’re not sitting or standing - which is a win! A study found that walking regularly can help you hit two important goals — shed fat and keep it off in the long term. With a proper diet, walking can help you shed pounds faster than dieting alone, increase your mobility, and prime your body daily to avoid any injury from a sedentary lifestyle. The study suggested shooting for at least 10,000 steps a day, which is equivalent to about 2 hours of walking. Now, walking for 2 hours a day is not something we are suggesting, but how can you chunk that 2 hours time into your day? - Can you park farther away at the grocery store for an extra 5-minute walk in and out? - Are there steps you can take instead of using an elevator? - Is your lunch on-the-go, so you can eat while you walk? The minutes and steps will add up! Remember, you may not hit your goal on Day 1, but the first step is the most important. Did you get in your steps today?! Nothing fits a fall side dish better than this Cauliflower Rice and Broccoli Gratin! Traditionally, this side features rice and a cheese sauce that would definitely be a treat. But, some easy veggie swaps make this a dish you can weave into your meal plan, always.
INGREDIENTS ● Nonstick cooking spray ● ¾ cup raw cashews ● ¼ cup + 3 Tbsp. nutritional yeast, divided use ● ¾ tsp. sea salt (or Himalayan salt), divided use ● ¼ tsp. garlic powder ● 1 medium cauliflower, cut into bite-sized pieces (or 3 cups cauliflower rice) ● 2 Tbsp. olive oil, divided use ● 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped ● ¼ cup gluten-free arrowroot ● 2 cups unsweetened almond milk ● ½ tsp. ground black pepper, divided use ● 2 cups cooked broccoli, coarsely chopped ● 2 Tbsp. parsley, finely chopped (for garnish; optional) INSTRUCTIONS
Where have you added cauliflower rice into your meal planning? It is SO versatile, I’d love to hear how you’re using it! |
