Inspiration and a Healthy Pumpkin Spice Treat!

You are what you tell yourself….



I am just so proud of anyone who steps up and starts changing her health habits, in whatever shape or form.  It's so easy to be stuck in a rut, eating fast, processed foods and not getting a move on.  So when someone takes the time to put herself first, I just love being the one coaching her along!! I know first hand how hard it is to get going.  

So today? Props to this mama, Rachel!! We became friends through blogging; you can find her over here #mommylife.  She is a SAHM with an adorable little girl!  

She's currently down 7 pounds on this challenge, and that was just from the cleanse phase!!  She has lost over 50 pounds with our products and has seriously seen some amazing results.



She has shared her results and products with others, resulting in the ability to stay home and earn an additional $500-$1000 income.  It makes me so happy to be able to help others like her, so she can stay home and not have to leave her baby girl to earn some extra income for her family.



The biz is super simple, but it takes dedication and you need to be teachable and coachable.  Rachel is all of those for sure!   Just keep reaching girl; I can't wait to see where you go!



Sidenote~~It is so so so very important to eat small meals all throughout the day.  It's also equally important to know what to eat, but this small change can do WONDERS for your metabolism.

Pretty much!! #truth


And for kicks, I saw these floating around. I have NOT tried any of these recipes, but I thought maybe one of you might?! Interesting for sure and healthier than some of the tradish pies and such that are out there.  So maybe you have a big event coming up, or want to get festive with some of our staples…



I wish I had this over the summer to try!  Muscle gain always help curb that sweet tooth.



Oh, and if you want to be festive AND keep it super easy--here ya go!! Pumpkin Spice Meal Shakes!


Holiday editions tend to sell out SUPER fast.  Get them while ya can! I've ordered and stocked up on my boxes!!


If you're on the fence of pushing yourself, just do it!! It's totally worth it….and seriously, it is fun to go against the grain.

Perfect Pumpkin Bread



I tried out a Food Network recipe, but made some changes.  It's soft, moist, and has tons of pumpkin flavor!! The following makes enough for two loaves.  {One to keep & one to give away!}

Pre-heat oven to: 350 degrees

Grease 2 loaf pans {I used cooking spray}

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs, lightly bean
  • 16 ounces canned unsweetened pumpkin
  • 3 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • 2ish teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice
  • 2/3 cup water


Directions:
 Stir together sugar and oil. Stir in eggs and pumpkin. Combine dry ingredients in separate bowl. Blend dry ingredients and water into wet mixture, alternating. Divide batter between two loaf pans. Bake for about an hour or until both loaves are browned & the toothpick comes out clean of batter. Let them cool completely before you take them out.
It's the perfect gift to give to those whom you cannot spend the actual day of Thanksgiving with.
  Much love!! Happy Turkey Day!!
