There’s something about waking up early for a run that makes it all worth getting out of bed, even if you don’t want to.
Which is your favorite aspect of getting in a workout early?
– sense of accomplishment
– getting the workout done early
– cooler temperatures
– amazing views
– lapping everyone still in bed
I can’t believe this week is the last and final week of the 21 day nutrition plan I’m doing. With traveling to Buffalo this weekend, the nutrition plan was a little off balance. I noticed how much easier it is to overdose on carbs(yellows), rather than get in protein, healthy fats, and vegetables. All of these together are what allows us to get the results we want. Anyways, back on track! I wanted to share with you a healthy little treat I found earlier on another website: Protein Brownie Bites!
What you need: – 1 chocolate shakeology – 1 tsp coconut oil – water until properly mixed – stevia (not required) I used skinny girl
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and place onto cookie sheet into about 6 tbsp size balls. Bake for 5-8 minutes at 375!
For my plan, this counts as – 1 red – 1 tsp

Today marks day 5 of my dairy and gluten free challenge! I’m so excited to be doing this and already seeing many benefits of this.
One advantage: SO MUCH ENERGY!!
This is huge for me. After my trip to buffalo a few weeks ago, I was in the slump with working out and eating out. I couldn’t find the motivation to do anything really, besides work. It was horrible and I was constantly regretting being lazy and not getting my workouts in. Feeling sluggish is definitely no fun! As of yesterday, I was starting to see a difference with energy. I was up, ready to go at 6:30AM. Before work, I managed to get in some hill training work and a 3 mile bike ride. I felt good!!!
I must say, going gluten free is definitely NOT easy. I couldn’t imagine those with celiac disease who have to do this day in and day out. Major props to you guys! I know it’s not a choice but it’s a struggle and the fact that you make it work, for your lives, is incredible.
Will I continue with this way of living, gluten and dairy free? Yes, it is very possible. Although it is very challenging, the benefits for your health are far worth it!
