On average, how many servings of vegetables are you eating per day?
Are your fitness results possibly being hidden by too many carbs & too much sugar?
Excess nutrients, even if they’re clean & healthy, are stored as fat. I get in about 2-3 servings of veggies that are in my daily Shakeology, plus 3-4 servings from my salads, wraps, & veggies in my egg whites…so ~6 servings total.
I don’t always get it right, but I never stop trying
Happy Monday! ARE YOU COMMITTED THIS WEEK?
TIPS to Shake Things Up:
Strive for Progress, NotPerfection!
Would you eat this pizza made on a brown rice wrap with salsa, vegan cheese (no, I’m not vegan but I eat a lot like one), tomatoes & avocado?!
Check out the video of how I made this (& the video challenge) at www.Instagram.com/JenelleSummers
This was sooo good! At only 300 calories, still room for a Shakeology later which has fruits, veggies & protein!
We’re at the BB Leadership conference!
Did an awesome PiYo workout this morning & heard some amazing presentations, including my favorite by my sister Chalene Johnson with her business tips & her funny stories.
And we’re learning about some SUPER exciting stuff coming…P90X3 in December, Shakeology Sampler packs 5 for $19.95 and a sweet new program launching early next year called 21-Day Fix!
Didn’t think it was possible but BB Coaching just keeps getting better!
Is anyone else willing to admit they MIGHT have an addiction to Quest bars?! Nothing wrong with them, I’m just sensing an addiction coming on, personally.
I think maybe I should have 3 homemade peanut butter Shakeology bites when the Quest cravings hit. We’ll see how long I can go without…lol!
What do YOU need to go cold turkey on?!
These are THE BOMB!
Use as pre-workout or to satisfy your PB craving, or to replace your addiction to protein bars with an all-natural, low sugar, homemade option. And kids love them too!
Recipe
Mix all ingredients in large bowl:
Mix well. Form into golf-ball sized bites. Freeze for 1-2 hrs and keep frozen.
When you want one, let it stand for 30 seconds to thaw a little.
Makes ~12-15. They’re ~80-100 calories each and ~8g protein.
Does this help inspire a healthy dinner tonight?!
This was an earlier meal for me; I’ll probably do Shakeology and salad tonight. But this was Quinoa with turkey burger crumbles, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes with a side of hummus!
We make Turkey burgers and quinoa a couple times a week so they are ready to go ahead of time!

I usually have more color in my meals/snacks as a rule of thumb (like leafy greens and fruit) but this rainy day, pre-cardio fuel called for oatmeal .
I used 2 packets instant oatmeal (use maple brown sugar flavored or any flavor you choose, or make steel cut oats), add enough water that it’s VERY soup-like, heat in microwave 1 minute, let it cool a little, then stir in 1/2 scoop Superfood and Protein supplement (aka Vanilla Shakeology). Heating Shakeology messes with its nutritional superpowers, but to my knowledge, adding it to something warm does not.
300-400 calories depending on brand/flavor of Oatmeal, 16-22g protein, low sugar if you use a lower-sugar oatmeal or steel cut oats. Enjoy!
Raise your hand if you sometimes do Shakeology twice in one day! This was one of those days, but it kept me on track. I eat 5-6 small meals a day–gotta keep your metabolism MOVING and muscles FED.
At a State baseball tournament and there’s no healthy food in sight, but I carry low sodium tuna in my purse (as well as Shakeology, almonds and an apple) just for these situations.
A local sub shop put the veggies together for me (if you ask nicely, most places will make a non-menu meal). And they of course had lunch meat but that is SO high in sodium. I hate feeling so bloated from high sodium foods,not to mention it’s unhealthy. Salad dressing was vinegar and oil.
