Look, Feel and Be Healthier in 21 Days!

Not many people know that Beachbody isn't just a company that sells killer workouts! In fact, they are a well rounded health and wellness company and offer a variety of products for every stage of your journey. So when I injured my back a few weeks ago and couldn't workout, I decided to look for something in their toolbox that would allow me to continue on the path to weight loss while I healed -- and I found my answer in The Ultimate Reset. 

What is the Ultimate Reset?

Do You Eat Real Food While Doing the Ultimate Reset?

The answer is YES!!  You will be eating a variety of fruits, vegetables, beans, lentils, quinoa, brown rice, salmon, eggs, whole grain toast, farina, potatoes, nuts, seeds, and even MORE REAL FOOD! And you eat alot of it! As I said above, this is a NO-STARVATION DETOX! And that's why I decided to try it...I still wanted to be able to EAT! 

Here's an example of my first two days! 

Day 1, 2 &3 Update:

I officially started the Reset on Monday, March 16th and I am doing it along with two of my teammates, which honestly, makes things much easier. We are supporting each other and checking in with each other ever few hours and I am so glad for them.  The most important thing I think you can have on a journey is someone to keep you accountable and focused and this is what we provide for each other!  

So far, I am absolutely NOT hungry at all. These meals are beautiful, tasty and filling, BUT I do miss my morning coffee and not having it has caused MASSIVE HEADACHES! Day 1 and 2 I fell asleep on my couch by 8:45pm because I was just so drained, but today, Day 3, my headache is much less intense and I do feel a bit more energy (I still miss my coffee). But I feel so LIGHT AND AIRY! And as of this morning I am down 1 pound. So that's a nice victory!     

I am loving this so far and am excited to see where the next 18 days takes me! Stay tuned...and if you have any questions about the program or where I am in my journey, please email me at coachangiep@gmail.com or message me on Facebook! I am here to help and answer any questions you may have! Much love xoxo

Cauliflower Crust Pizza

I've been wanting to try this forever, but kept putting off because it looked kinda time consuming, but I could not have been more wrong! In fact it was super simple, I involved the kids and they even ate it! Score for MOM! 

I took two different recipes and then sort of created my own. So here it goes:

Ingredients:

1 Head of Cauliflower
1 Egg
Dried Oregano
Sea Salt
Chopped Garlic
1/4 Cup Marscapone Cheese (for texture)
2 Cups of Sauce
2 Cups of Shredded Mozzarella
A few small tomatoes for topping (optional -- pick your own toppings!)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degree

Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it looks like rice.

Place cauliflower in a double boiler/steamer and steam for about 4-5 minutes. I actually pushed all the cauliflower to one side because it was clogging up the holes in the steamer and blocking the steam. Once I did this -- we were back in action! If you don't have a double boiler/steamer, you can actually boil the cauliflower in a pot and simply strain it with a fine strainer when it's cooked.

**IMPORTANT STEP:  When you are finished steaming the cauliflower, place it between a few paper towels and squeeze out as much liquid as you can.  This will allow the crust to be crustier! 

In a bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, dried oregano, salt, chopped garlic and marscapone cheese. 

Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray or coconut oil spray.  Transfer the mixture to the center of a baking sheet and spread into whatever shape you desire. We went with a Sicilian type crust! 

Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from oven, place sauce and desired toppings on the crust and bake for another 10-15 minutes until all cheese is melted!
