Bikini Body Challenge

Join Autumn Calabrese and I for the official launch of the 21 Day Fix Extreme BIKINI BODY CHALLENGE!!! When I heard of this program coming out, I could not help but get SOOO EXCITED!!! First of all the 1st 21 Day Fix is by far my favourite program yet and to kick it up a notch it is focused around bikini figures/competitive training tools and techniques & is going tobe a huge hit for not only my personal fitness, but for my amazing clients and followers!!! The 21-Day Fix Extreme workout and meal planning program has been designed to work with Shakeology to help you shred up and shed OFF those final few pounds. 


FINALLY THE FIT BODY YOU WANT, FASTER.
When it comes to looking toned, feeling and performing like an athlete, it's a matter of losing the unwanted fat that is sitting on top of the muscles. The most effective way to lose that fat is to have a simple, customizable meal plan and effective fat-burning workouts - no more than 30 minutes is necessary. I have personally compared hours at the gym to a 30 minute high intensity workout and at home always takes the win! With portion containers designed to meet the macro nutrient needs your body requires for optimal fat loss, there's no guess-work and the food choices are in your control. This program helps you see the muscle tone and more importantly, helps you FEEL your best... in just 21 days.

Sweet Potato Protein Pancakes


Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup cooked sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 scoop of whey protein powder (& I used Vanilla Shakeology)
  • 1 tbsp greek yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp xanthum gum
  • a (heaping) dash of cinnamon
  • a pinch of salt

Directions
  1. Blend all of the ingredients in a blender until smooth
  2. Pour batter onto heated pan
  3. Cook pancakes on medium heat
These pancakes were sooooo yummy!! The sweetness of the sweet potato totally takes over!! After making all of the pancakes, I topped mine with greek yogurt. Why use syrup when greek yogurt tastes amazing and is actually nutritious? Also, these pancakes come out rather thick/dense. For a lighter pancake, just add a bit of almond milk  :)
