Micki's #mealprepmondays 90 day challenge day 60!!

When it comes to meal prepping you have to measure out your food in portions; prepare quality foods and  know what time of the day you will be eating. Here is what I prepped for the next few days; I only prep for about 3-4 days at a time since food doesn't last for ever you need to be aware how long what you're cooking will last don't wanna get sick!

My days 1-3 meal plan (day 4 is a carb day)
Workout (5am)

M1 (7am) 1/2 cup oatmeal & hard boiled egg or 2 strips of turkey bacon
M2 (10am) Vi Shake w/ fruit
M3 (1pm) 4 oz chicken, 2 cup veggie; 1/2 cup carb (brown rice, sweet potato or quinoa)
M4 (4pm) Avocado and hard boiled egg whites (snack)
M5 (7pm) Vi shake w/ pb2

It's pretty simple to follow I've lost 14 lbs in 55 days. Check out my before and after photo... I'm half way through my 90 day challenge and I feel amazing!!

Mid morning snack

 

(Don't mind the rough look; JUST got done working out)

Blended up 3 strawberries

two scoops of strawberry GREEK yogurt

 half a banana and 

crushed ice with a splash of milk 

(you can also use water but I'm new to the shake snacks so I'm not ready to be hard core yet lol)

The reason I put Greek in caps is because lots of yogurt has high fructose corn syrup and that's not very healthy it's an artificial sweeter and Greek yogurt doesn't have all the extra "stuff"

It was so yummy; perfect mid morning snack

*You can also replace this for a meal but make sure you add a protein power of some sort because a fruit shake is NOT a good way to replace a meal in my personal opinion!!

Money Monday Biz Tip: Haters are motivators!

Let your haters be your motivators... Now I am not referring to JUST the people who talk bad about you behind your back; I am speaking on the people closest to you! So you have started a business for the 10th time or the first time and you're excited and telling everyone about your great new venture...( I am speaking from experience on this situation) These people close to you will say things like; "Are you sure that's a good idea;" or "WHAT IF....it doesn't work/ you don't make money" and so on. Don't mind them they will try and convince you that they are just looking out for you.... The issue with listening to these people is they are not entrepreneurs and risk takers like you are! You wouldn't get advice from some one over weight if you're trying to lose weight would you?? NOPE

What people don't realize is they are taking a bigger risk by NOT doing what they love; trying new things; and stepping out into the "unknown" they are risking having to work a 9-5 long after they retire and they also risk hating what they do for a living their entire life.

Take risks what else are you going to do?? Listening to the 99% of people who are on auto pilot will keep you in the box you're pushing so hard to break free from!

ESCAPE THE RAT RACE!! BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF

I lost 30 lbs! before & after photos

As a new mom and entrepreneur my crazy busy lifestyle made it hard to lose weight from having a child and I never thought I would be able to lose the 50+ lbs I gained when I had my daughter Gia. Well I was blessed to stumble across a company called "My Smart Healthy" they have prepacked all natural; gluten free; meals shipped straight to your door all you do is heat and eat!!! I started JUST eating the food and lost 7 lbs in the first few weeks. There is nothing special about this it's simply a change in lifestyle. I ate the portioned food and followed their meal plan of eating 5-6 small meals a day and the weight almost fell off! I am now working out and the weight is coming off faster and faster!! I want to lose another 20 lbs so stay tuned....
