Clean Eating Tuna Fish Salad

clean eating tuna fish, tuna, fish, healthy




SAY WHAT!?!? It's amazing Tuna Fish with out the fatting Mayo!??! SOLD!! 

Yea, I wasn't too sure at first either but i'm telling you this is BOMB.COM you are going to love it and not even miss that you don't have your mayo. The greek yogurt and avocado adds an amazing creaminess. This is one of my favorite quick go to meals when I just really don't feel like cooking anything. It would be good on a bed of baby spinach, in a wrap, or even an open face tuna melt.

1 pack of Albacore Tuna 
Dollop of Greek Yogurt 
Few chunks of Avocado or 1/2 of a wholly guacamole mini
Pepper

Boom!! It's Done!! 

Easy and 1, 2, 3

Transformation Tuesday -- Challenger 21 Day Fix Success Stories!


21 day fix challenge group, support, accountability, meal prep, meal plan

Guess what!??! It's Transformation Tuesday and I have a group of challengers that just finished their first round of the 21 day fix! They pretty much blew my mind when the transformation stories and pictures started to fill the newsfeed of our closed group. AMAZING and all in only 21 days, that's only three weeks people!! I absolutely love the 21 day fix, it's one of my all time favorite programs. I think it's GENIUS and how fool proof everything is. There is a perfect mix of intensity, cardio, and strength training in the program and modifications for any fitness level. Plus you get these little portion control containers and a nutrition guide which makes it super simple to follow.

I have to say these ladies are pretty SMOKING and AMAZING!! I mean all it takes is a little hard work, dedication, commitment!! We were all in this together. We posted our sweaty pictures in our group, I shared my menu plans weekly and helped them get their menu plans together, we posted pictures, and checked in daily. It's always a good time in my challenge groups. It's all about support and accountability. The ones that got the results were the DEDICATED ones that checked in and brought it every single day!!! So proud of these ladies!!

Mission: Become the Best Version of Yourself!! Transform your LIFE and BODY!!

be the best version of yourself, transformation, weightloss, challenge group,


It's coming in to the holidays and I know that normally means it's time to forget about YOU and focus on everyone else!! NOPE, not this year!! As a Mom, Wife, and Business Owner I know how easy it is to put yourself on the back burner and just forget about YOU until you look in the mirror one day and don't recognize yourself. You haven't showered in three days let alone have time to fit in a workout. 

Well i'm asking you to do this one little favor for yourself TOGETHER ... Let's Become and FIND the Best Version of YOU!! You know it's time and if you are reading this then chances are you really really need this. Don't you want to feel confident, healthy, beautiful, and amazing in those skinny means, that holiday outfit, or that cocktail dress? I can feel you on this one, I've been there. I remember trying on every pair of jeans in the closet only going back to my yoga pants because that means I could hide the fact that nothing fit and gave me a muffin top. I totally get the struggle!! 

Sleep is something that is a luxury, your kids are running around like animals and you are doing everything you can to precent them from killing each other, you aren't ready to spend the money on a fitness program that is just going to sit and collect dust, and you really don't want to make the investment on Shakeolgoy because you aren't sure you are even going to like it. 

Before committing to my own challenge group, I didn't see what the big deal was with this Shakeolgoy stuff. I was fine with my daily protein shake that cost a fraction of the price, until I wanted to see for myself what the HYPE was about this stuff. I decided I would give it a shot for 30 days. 

mommy transformation, loose weight, support, accountability, challenge group



Wanna know what happened next!??! I committed to 90 days of TurboFire, I committed to my challenge group and checking in daily, I learned everything I could about clean eating, I replaced one meal a day with Shakeolgoy, and BOOM lost 40 pounds in 90 days. My complete lifestyle changed in only three short months and it also transformed my families life. My girls know the difference between a healthy meal and a junk food meal. They totally call me out when something isn't healthy or good for them. I cooked more meals from home, we felt better, had more energy as a family, and truly know how to fuel our bodies. This change in MYSELF not only changed ME and helped me become my own best version but also my family and friends, everyone around me.

mommy makeover, change, transformation, accountability, 21 day fix

As I watched myself and my life transform it has truly inspired me to help other families and women do the same thing for themselves but also for their family and friends. To become the BEST version of you. To feel and live the way you were MEANT to live. You deserve to wake up with energy and to LOVE every bit of yourself. You owe it to your FAMILY!! 

So here is what I'm going to do!! I'm going to teach you how to make exercise a part of your LIFESTYLE I'm going to teach you how to plan healthy meals, create a weekly meal plan, prepare healthy snacks, stay motivated over the next 60 days, and find your HEALTHY balance between the holiday treats and your new lifestyle. I know the holidays are coming up and it's much harder at this time. This is the time that most of us throw this type of lifestyle out the window and wait to start in the New Year but seriously do you want to be 10 pounds heavier!??! You can use the 80/20 rule, stay on track, enjoy the treats in moderation, and loose weight. I can show you how! 80% of the time you will be eating clean and 20% of the time you get to enjoy the little extras this time of year offers you. 
Together we are going to look at your week and pick and choose what's most important, what you are going to STICK to, and where you plan to enjoy. 


We are aiming for a LIFESTYLE not a Quick Fix or a Diet but something you can MAINTAIN forever and always!!! Enjoy the best of BOTH worlds. 


So you are thinking ... YES, that sounds awesome I totally want to do this 
What do I have to do!??! 

Requirements: 

1.  You are required to have ME as your COACH through Team Beachbody.

2.  Then together WE pick a fitness program through Team Beachbody that fits your needs. It does not matter what your ability level is, I have something for you!
{21 day fix, T25, Chalean Extreme, P90X3, Turbofire, Insanity, Piyo, ect...}

3.  You are REQUIRED to replace 1 meal a day with Shakeology ONLY for the duration of the group. Once it is over you can decide if you have enough healthy recipes in your pocket to prepare meals without needing shakeology or if you find its convenient and it takes care of 1 meal you can keep going!  I still 2 years later drink Shakeology daily.

4.  Then, it is required that you participate in the online closed group daily.  Each day I will share a tip, recipe, motivation or meal plan.  You check in, rate your day and get your inspiration for the next 24 hours.  You can log in whenever you want just as long as  I know you are there it's all good!

I am your personal support system so that you actually start, finish and truly succeed at changing your lifestyle.  I will share with you the recipes that my family loves along with the quick easy recipes that don't take a lot of prep!   


We will start our plan and prep week on October 20th.  That means we will set our goals, I will teach you how to clear out the old and bring in the new, give you recipes, a meal plan outline and suggestions and together we will start working out the following MONDAY! 

workout, transform,sweat, lift, train, loose weight

If this sounds like something you would like to do please complete the application below to be considered for a spot in this group.  There is limited availability so that I can keep the group small and individualized.

How to stay to on track with your Health and Fitness goals while on Vacation!

Finally in Texas after 10 hours of traveling! 

These last three weeks I have been on total vacation mode and visited 3 different states. A lot of my challengers and friends have been asking me how I stayed on track. I'll totally admit that I wasn't 100% on track. I had more drinks than I normally would and more treats but I definitely had a little system that I used so that things wouldn't get totally out of control. 
Vacation visiting friends and family! 
So my First stop was Texas, my hometown, to visit friends and family for about 6 days before it was time to head on to Arizona for Beachbody Leadership. 

Here was my Vacation GAME PLAN and How I stayed pretty close to on track over the three weeks. 

I packed all of my workout gear. I always make room in my suitcase for workout gear. It goes everywhere I go. It's pretty much like bringing my toothbrush with me. It's something I can't forget. 
Sports Bras, Shorts/Capris, Tank Tops, Socks, and Shoes. 
I packed my workout DVD's and made plans with friends to go running and workout. 
If you are going to a hotel you can also make sure that the hotel has a gym and everything you need before booking. This is always HUGE in my book and a must. 

Target Fun with one of my best friends and the kiddos! 
Instead of carrying around my bag of Shakeolgoy I ordered the packets because they travel much easier and you can just toss them in your purse and GO! I had my shaker cup with me on the plane for an easy meal and if you MUST have a blender the Mini Hamilton one is awesome to travel with. It has a detachable cup with the blender. If you only have a bag the best option is to get the baby formula containers and fill that up. That works AWESOME for carrying your Shakeolgoy around -- MESS FREE! 
Shakeolgoy to the RESCUE! 
In my purse I stocked up with the little 100 cal packets of all natural almonds and quest bars. A lot of the places in the airport had little containers of fruit and veggies so I grabbed those in between layovers. It was PERFECT instead of resorting to the JUNK that the food service offers. Also grabbed big bottles of water to make a Shakeolgoy and drink. 

Once I got settled at my parents house for the week I had my list ready to head to the grocery store: 

I grabbed some ground turkey
Tuna
Cheese sticks
Apples
Strawberries
Greek yogurt
Baby Spinach
Balsamic Vingar
Mrs Dash Seasonings
Pinto Beans
Quinoa
100% whole grain bread
Egg Whites 
Hummus 
Baby Carrots
Turkey Bacon

stay on track while on vacation, vacation tips, healthy eating
Texas Grocery Shopping!! 





I made a big batch of pinto beans, ground turkey, and used 1/2 taco seasoning to make some taco meat and had that over salads for dinners and lunches. 

For snacks I had cheese sticks and nuts, Quest bars, Hummus and carrots, Egg Whites
Depends on where i'm going for the day. But I'll normally toss all of this in my cooler to take with me. Makes things super simple. 

Breakfast was Shakeology or Egg whites with Turkey Bacon and baby spinach. 

Lunch I would normally go home to have or would pack a cooler. I love things that are quick and simple while out of the home. Tuna packs are the BOMB! I mix that with greek yogurt, avocado, and sliced almonds. Then have it in a wrap, open face sandwich, or over a salad. Totally refreshing and DELISH! 

Of course while on Vacation you are going to go out to eat a lot more and that's totally okay. It's okay to splurge every once in awhile but if you have goals in mind you can still do a great job! 

Skip the bread
Ask for steamed veggies with out butter
Substitute french fries and backed potatoes for steamed veggies or a side salad. 
Dressings always on the side or sauces. 

Don't stress just try and pass on the OBVIOUS calories that you can control and move on. 

Do I have Ice cream, Alcohol, and desserts ... YOU BET I DO! I totally had some extra treats while on vacation and I didn't feel bad about it. I made sure that I got my daily workouts in and had a healthy balance. 

Pick and CHOOSE what you really want. You can't have it all .. so pick the things you most want! 
Fuel your body for ENERGY, enjoy the little things but remember you don't live to EAT you EAT to LIVE! 

Vacation Accountability
Repeat after me .... WORK OUT ... Don't skip it .. Don't make Excuses -- GET UP AND JUST DO IT! Your workout shouldn't be something you DREAD it's something that makes you feel good, puts you in a good mood, and gives you energy for the day. Remember that when your brain is telling you NO, just keep sleeping. Your day will go so much better and you will feel so much better with a good workout in! You aren't worried about loosing weight while on vacation but you want to maintain what you have already worked so hard for. Wake up and feel STRONG and know that you are an overcomer and you CAN do those things that others won't because you are WORTH IT! 

Packed T25 .. Yes I killed it! 

Make your vacation FUN!!! Working out and Eating Clean should be a part of your life that you LOVE because of the way it makes you feel. It shouldn't be something you dread. Don't stress if you have an extra serving or have that ice-cream. Life is all about BALANCE and enjoying it! 

It's your LIFE and you don't have to eat anything that you don't want to. Ask for the food that you want, get creative with your workouts, but most of all HAVE FUN!! You only have one life might as well be in LOVE with it.

Pumpkin Spice Latte with out the Guilt !!


Pumpkin Spice Latte Healty, Clean, Guilt Free, Shakeolgoy


Umm... So I'm just going to be honest and say that I love Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes. They are my total guilty pleasure but at over $5 a pop plus all the added sugar and fat it's definitely a once a month type thing. Not something I can have regular if I want to feel my best and stick to my goals. 
If I could I would totally have one daily and it takes some hard work and dedicated to fight those urges but I have found something that cures that craving. 


This week has been a crazy busy one!! I mentored my team, had team calls, 1:1 calls with new coaches, checked in with my challengers daily, returned e-mails and messages. I have a new challenge group coming up so the e-mails have been piling in. It doesn't leave me much time and previously I totally would of just skipped eating all together or grabbed a bag of chips and called it lunch. THANK GOODNESS For Shakeolgy I can just walk down to the Kitchen, bladed up my Shakeolgoy, and got back to work. It totally gives me my energy for the day to get going again. BEFORE about 3 o'clock I would crash and burn -- NOT ANYMORE!! My luck is packed with tons of good stuff that my body NEEDS for fuel but it also totally gives me comfort. 

So if you are all about the PUMPKIN this time of year -- You totally have to give this a try!! 


1 scoop Vanilla Shakeology 
1/2 Tbsp of Pumpkin Spice or cinnamon 
2 Tbsp of Pumpkin Purée 
1/2 cup almond milk 
Handful of ice 
One shot of expresso 
((Or you can do cup of coffee and 1/4 almond milk!)) 


To Try Shakeology make sure to contact me using the button below and request to purchase a sample of Shakeology or ask me the best way to get your own bag to make a part of your day as well!

Fit for Fall Challenge Group - 21 Day Fix is on SALE this September

21 Day Fix Challenge, 21 Day Fix Challenge pack on Sale, Challenge Group

So I totally know it's that crazy time of year where the kids are back in school and fall sports are back up and running. BUT thank goodness the prep is over and everything is slowing down and going back to norm. We are finding our routines and it's time to relax a little (maybe a tiny bit? LOL) 
So fall is totally the time of year where we are going to football parties, comfort food, pumpkin spice EVERYTHING, pumpkin patches, and skinny jeans. Since I live in Hawaii I don't really get the fall leaves smell, the snow, or the sweaters and scarfs :) I totally get how easy it is to fall back into your old ways when it's time to put the baiting suits, tank tops, and shorts away. I know that normally during the fall, family becomes top priority and you aren't so worried about reaching your fitness goals. 

So over the last 2 years, this is one thing I have stuck with. TAKING CARE OF ME! I was sick of starting over every january with the same ol' resolution. I've also realized that not only is eating clean and exercising good for meeting my weight goals but it makes me a better person. I function better, I have more energy, I feel better about myself, and I'm in a better mood. If I skip a workout I'm in a cruddy mood the whole day. It's my stress release and my ME time. When my close began to get tight I felt gross and defeated, it put me in the worst mood. It just keeps getting worse from there. Once you loose that focus, it's so hard to get back up. I know because I use to be that way!! I can 100% relate! It's no fun! Since becoming a Beachbody Coach I've been able to stay on track just by surrounding myself with positive people and daily encouragement. I also am able to give out daily motivation and encouragement. It totally keeps me going on those days I feel like giving up! 


So now it's my time to HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE!!!! This month the 21 Day Fix Challenge Pack (one of my favorite programs) is this months promotion and it's a KILLER DEAL!! You are literally getting your 21 day Fix for $10. You get a workout program, a bag of Shakeolgoy, nutrition guide, portion size containers, and FREE SHIPPING!! You can NOT pass this up!!

So how is this thing going to go!?!? On September 15th we are going to get started with making small changes in your nutrition so that you can have more energy, eat healthier, and fuel your body for FUEL vs COMFORT! Together we are going to create a meal plan that meets your needs/lifestyle as well as your families. I'm going to share with you simple recipes that require little time to prepare that your whole family will enjoy. I also am here to help you CHANGE YOUR MINDSET and start making yourself a priority for at least 30 minutes a day. The workouts that you are going to get in your challenge pack are a combination of cardio, strength training, Pilates, and yoga. There are modifications to every single workout so it doesn't matter what fitness level you are at, there is something for you. This month we are also really going to focus on those pesky temptations that come up in the fall. Football parties, pumpkin treats, and desserts. I want to help you live a BALANCED life where you still enjoy LIFE but you won't ruin all of your hard work. I am going to be pairing up with you and give you the tools and strategies to keep yourself STRAIGHT!

Team Fit Fighters Weight Loss Transformations



Hey Fit Fam!! So I wanted to do a little post today on some transformations going on over here in our challenge groups. I mean seriously, they are killing it!!! We just finished up our last week of Piyo and I am loving the results that have been submitted to me. I am too excited to share with you. 

In my challenge groups we focus on clean eating. Every day we post our sweaty pictures, motivate each other, and hold each other accountable. We all start and finish together. I really focus on helping the ladies who join me create a LIFESTYLE instead of just a quick fix. That's why we post our menu plans weekly, talk about batch cooking, meal prepping, and grocery shopping weekly so that everything is planned out for the week ahead. I totally get that life can be busy and that is one of the main reasons many don't commit to a new healthy lifestyle. I'm here to tell you that my challengers are made up of all kinds of people and many work full time and have several kids but they still make it happen and they get AMAZING results!?!? WHY NOT YOU!??! 

weightloss motivation, motivational quotes,

It just takes a little commitment, dedication, and consistency. You don't have to do it alone. You can join my amazing community of positive uplifting people where I share all of my tips and tricks to how I reached my own personal success!! IF you haven't heard my personal story, I would love to share it with you. 


Over this last year and 1/2 I have had this amazing job that has allowed me to watch people transform mentally and physically right before my eyes. 


It's been the most rewarding thing I've ever been apart of and the best part is It's MY JOB! I get paid to do this!! Not only do I get to watch others transform but I get to watch MYSELF transform. The principals that I have learned, drinking shakeology daily, and doing my workout programs has also allowed me to transform myself. Over the past 2 years I've transformed and went from an unhealthy, sluggish, depressed size 13 to a happy, healthy, fit, and confident size 4. Again, this is my JOB!! I earn money just by sharing my own results and inspiring others to do the same. I've learned how to turn FITNESS into a BUSINESS!

It is so humbling to find your true passion in life, help others, and work on yourself all at the same time as earning an income for your family.
Whatever your goals are do it with PASSION, do it FEARLESS, and be FIERCE!! You have the power to be whatever you want to be.
So blessed to daily watch these amazing transformations and be apart of so many amazing lives.
I'm never LOOKING back ...


Beachbody transformation, Beachbody Coach, Change, Success, Weightloss

Enough about ME I want to share with you some awesome results!!! 

The first little lady is Alissa Tarner -- Now a coach on my team. She started her journey with the 21 day fix and from then on went to Piyo. She had a baby not even a year ago and her tummy is looking AWESOME. I know you momma's can relate about how happy you are to have your little one but you just aren't digging what you are seeing in the mirror. I felt the same way.

Amazing right!??! But she doesn't stop there, she goes on to 60 days of Piyo and ends up with this

NOW that is amazing!!! I am so proud of her!!! She has transformed right before my eyes. She is an amazing coach and has truly put in the work to get the results. 


I have another amazing challenger and coach, Kyla Senecal who has amazing results. When I met her she had a 4 month old little baby boy. She was working hard to loose the baby weight but was looking to improve her eating and also fell in love with the idea of doing Piyo to add in with her running. I went to the beach with her the other day and couldn't keep my eyes off her tummy. It was SMOKING. She has seriously done amazing. Her baby boy is now 9 months old and she is looking awesome but most of all is a wonderful example of health and fitness to her two little boys. That's really the most important above all is breaking the chain of obesity and bad habits. Every Mom wants nothing more then the best for their kids.

Look at that amazing tummy!!! 


Super proud of each and every person who just graduated from my Piyo challenge group. They all seriously killed it. They were engaged the full 60 days and it paid off. I know it's not always easy but when you surround yourself with a community who is always there to get you back on track, success is so much easier. 

I want to offer that to you. My next challenge group is September 22nd and I only have 5 spots to fill. 

Fill out the application below if you would like to join us!! I will help you get your program and everything you need.
