21 Day Fix Extreme Chicken Fajitas

21 Day Fix Extreme Chicken Fajitas

21 Day Fix Extreme Chicken Fajitas
 
 
Yes I know I’m in the middle of doing Insanity Max 30 however I came across this 21 day fix extreme recipe and had to try and of course share!!  We are in the middle of some home projects as well this week so life has seemed busy however finding the time to eat healthy is still very important to me if I eat crap I feel like crap.  This recipe took like 10 minutes (including prepping to cook) it’s simple and kid friendly.  Our kids did not eat the lettuce and just had the filling and added cheese to theirs.  My husband eats most of my clean eating meals for example this recipe he grabbed regular taco shells. Which works for me I’m still making one meal for the entire family just a few modifications.  Also this would be easy to make into steak or shrimp as well.  The leftover I just made a salad for lunch tomorrow and topped it off with the chicken filling.
Ingredients: (makes 4 servings)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp Himalayan salt (or regular sea salt)
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp olive oil, divided
  • 4 (5- to 6-oz) raw chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, cut into 1/2-inch strips
  • 1 red (or green) bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 8 large romaine (or butter) lettuce leaves
  • 1/2 medium avocado, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup fresh salsa
Instructions
  1. Combine chili powder, salt, cumin, garlic powder, and 1 tsp oil in a large resealable plastic bag.
  2. Add chicken, bell pepper, and onion; mix gently to coat. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  3. Heat remaining oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Empty contents of bag into skillet; cook stirring frequently, for 5-6 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat and add lime juice.
  5. Evenly top lettuce leaves with chicken mixture, avocado, and salsa.

My progress with clean eating

My progress with clean eating


Ahhhh when I woke up this morning it hit me it’s been 6 weeks since I took my first set of before pictures with a newborn baby beside me.  A little bit about myself this will actually be my second transformation with clean eating, working out, accountability from online challenge groups, and drinking shakeology every day.  After I had our second child about two years ago I could not lose the baby weight, I was working out like crazy and the weight was not going anywhere.  So let’s just say taking these before pictures this time around was not as nerve racking to think about failing at this.  I knew going into this 6 weeks ago I would not be perfect with eating, I would not be able to work out till this past week, I would be tired, but staying the same was not an option.  I told myself I would not be hard on myself I tend to want to give everything I do my best and like most when it comes to weight loss I want it to happen yesterday.  Day one last Monday of working out!! 

 
My progress with clean eating


I made a choice to take measurements, before pictures, and only weight myself once a week.  Two weeks ago I stepped on the scale like most feeling good about the choices I made in the last seven days only to find I lost ONE lbs.!!  However in the same day my pants kept falling down!!  I measure progress in many forms.  So what other ways do I measure progress and teach my clients to do the same.  This is a great visual to keep in mind as your on your own journey, if you know your eating healthy and putting the time into exercising muscle takes up way less space than fat.  So ladies PLEASE use the scale as only one form of measuring your own journey.
 
 
 
My progress with clean eating

 1. Sleeping so much better

2. Able to stick to 5:00am workouts the last week

3. My skin overall looks more clear just with eating better

4. I feel happier over all because as a mom I’m carving out time every day for myself

5. I have soooo much more energy even with a newborn
 
My progress with clean eating
 

So inches lost total in 5 weeks of clean eating one week of doing a workout called the 21 day fix.

10 inches lost total!! 

5 inches from the waist

2 inches from the chest

3 inches from the hips

My legs and arms have stayed the same in the last 6 weeks

Oh the scale says I’ve lost 9 lbs. in 6 weeks (but like I said that’s at the bottom of my list on how I measure progress)

Here are by progress pictures as well

 


 I always say a picture says everything!!  I might have complained to my husband this week about being sore, waking up first thing in the morning might have been hard, focusing on what I was eating and planning ahead was not convenient, however today seeing these pictures makes it all worth it.  Being able to have confidence as a mom, energy to keep up with the kids, knowing I’m investing in my own health, makes it all worth it. I wanted to real quick share my pictures 15 weeks post having baby #2 keep in mind I was breastfeeding as well (like I am now), I was dead tired, working out for about 6 weeks burning 500 calories a day, and nothing was happening this is way I'm so passionate about helping others that feel stuck on their weight loss journey. 


 

 Yes it cost money to get started and feel this way but in my eyes it’s an investment we tent to invest in our homes, cars, kids, family, etc. but will find every excuse why we can’t invest in our own health.   What I know to be true as a coach for the past 18 months is it’s not about the money it’s the reason behind putting up a wall and not trying something new.  Are you afraid of failing? Are you afraid of drinking shakeology?   Are you afraid of the changes that will have to take place?  Are you afraid of what the heck clean eating is?  Guess what I know how you feel I felt the same way.  Fear has a way in our lives of holding us back from our full potential.  I ask you today to put fear aside and take a chance on yourself.  I’m personally going to be starting with a workout program called Insanity Max 30 and I would love to chat with you on what would be the right fit for you.  My goal as a coach is to listen to where you’re at and help you reach your personal goals.  I look forward to getting fit with you.  My next online accountability group start April 6th the Monday after Easter and I have a spot saved for you.  Fill out this application and let’s chat.

Beachbody on Demand

 
 Beachbody on Demand


Truth be told anyone that knows me knows I HATE technology and the thought of learning about beachbody on demand was something I pushed off to the side. UNITL this month as a top sc earner we had access to preview and try this out before it goes live to the public.  My mind started turning and truly became excited for all of the customers and coaches this would help. So what did I discover as I learned more about beachbody on demand?  Beachbody on Demand and the ability to instantly stream any workout in the Beachbody Digital library to your laptop, tablet, or mobile device- wherever you have an internet connection!  Plus you can get digital versions of the program guides and workout calendars, so you can start getting results today!  The digital library will be updated monthly with fresh workouts and different programs, so you never run out of the on the go options.  All you need is literally an internet connection!  Can you see the benefits already?




Are you the type of person that loves to jump from program to program and switch it up often?  This would be PERFECT for you.  I personally do well following a program from start to finish.  And let me just say there are TWO hidden gems in this list I want to point out Chalene extreme and Turbo Fire.  These programs are the Complete 60 and 90 day programs.  I personally started my weight loss journey with Chalene Extreme and lost 40 lbs. in 90 days-My Transformation




Are you someone that travels for work?  The thought of at home DVD's to take on the go are not easy to take and travel with.  However you always travel with your phone, laptop, or Ipad and this sounds like it might be just the right fit for your life situation. 



So on Monday March 2nd Beachbody on Demand will be available to every Team Beachbody Customer that has the club membership.  My job as a coach is to help each customer that wants change more then they want to stay the same.  It’s so much more than just creating an account and purchasing some super foods in a bag and working out with Shawn T.  My goal is to coach you from start to finish in your weight lose journey. Let’s face it.... transforming your body and your habits is just stinking hard!  It takes will power and want power! I personally am in my second transformation after having our 3rd child two weeks ago and look forward to staying on this journey together.  It takes doing it anyways even on the days that you do not feel like it!  It takes making good choices when it’s so much easier to just make bad choices.  So the club membership gives you all of those things!  You get the club membership by asking how you can upgrade to the club membership if you do not have a coach and I can walk you through the steps to get the club membership.

 How much does it cost?  Well the club membership is $2.99 a week but it is billed quarterly at $38.87.  You can cancel or change it at any time.  You are not locked into the club for a specific period of time.  So that is definitely nice that you don't have to sign a contract.  There is no additional cost to stream the workouts.  When you get the club membership you INSTANTLY have access to the customized meal planning feature, that has a printable grocery list, it allows you to customize and note if you have food allergies or don't like certain foods.  Most importantly you get a coach like me who will connect you to our support and accountability groups to help you set realistic goals for you, match you up with the correct program for your needs and keep you accountable to what  you want to accomplish.



Ok so the really cool part is this!  You can also get the club membership and shakeology in the form of a challenge pack starting on March 2nd as well.  So if you want to get both shakeology and the club membership you have this option!  It gives you Shakeology for 30 days and access to on demand for 90 days!  The cost for 90 days of support 140.00!!  If you break that down for 90 days it's $1.55 a day the cost of stopping for a bottle of water on your way to work, less then a cup of joe on the way to work, less then shopping for new clothes for the spring, less the going to the dr. for issues related to poor health.  You get the picture there is value in your health and it starts with you. 
What workouts are included in the Beachbody On Demand?
*P90X base and deluxe kits
*P90X2 base and deluxe kits

What does it mean to be in the top 3% of all beachbody coaches?


What does it mean to be in the top 3% of all beachbody coaches?

Well first lets back up to almost two years ago to the day!!  I gave birth to our second daughter February 8th and like most moms I was thrilled, scared, overwhelmed, and felt the worst I had ever felt in my own skin.  I never really gave much thought into my own health and fitness and any time the scale would creep up I would find myself working out for two weeks and getting things back in line.  Well after Josie born I was the heaviest I have ever been, I saw someone posting about a challenge group and of course miss independent was not going to reach out for help.  Three months post having the baby not much had changed and I thought what the heck I’ll see what these challenge groups are all about.  Well 90 days later I too felt amazing and it was natural to want to share it with others and started coaching in August of 2013.  This picture posted below was my own transformation I put myself out there in social media, showed up every day, and 30 days into coaching I made $60.00 dollars.  Most would have gave up!!  Thank goodness I saw the bigger picture as my income from helping my team and customers now exceeds what I made as a waitress working for someone else building someone else's dreams.

 


 

I can tell you I don’t have all the answers, I don’t know everything there is to know about social media outlets, I fail sometimes with keeping up with laundry, sometimes I totally mess up with my own nutrition, but the difference between August of 2013 and now being ranked in the top 3% of the company? 
*Never giving up
*Showing up every day
*Willing to learn
*Seeing the big picture
*Having faith beyond what I could see
*Setting goals with deadlines
*Willing to grow as a person and leader


To me I never really understood what it felt like to be passionate about your job.  Like most I’ve always worked to provide never fully understanding the bigger picture of life and seeing it’s about those around us.  It was a choice to stay home with the kids and to do the paper work for our traditional business but something was missing.  Do you feel like your life lacks purpose?  I felt that way also, yes my kids and husband are very important and giving up my freedom/ flexibility was not an option.  Beachbody has bought so many positive things into my life and I want others to experience it as well. 

 
 

What is rank? as someone looking in from the outside sounds kind of sketchy right?  I thought the same thing MLM business sometimes get a bad rap and for sure I was one of those that thought it was all about getting in at the right time, having the right connections, having a large network, being outspoken, and being a natural leader. EKKK  Finding out while in the hospital with baby number 3 (Henry) that I was #575 out of 250,000 coaches!!
 

 
Well personally rank is a direct reflection of helping my coaches duplicate a system that is proven to work and easy to jump in without any experience.  MANY start coaching but the length of those willing to stay plugged in becomes very narrow, my list to invite to my first challenge group was 10 names and less than a 100 friends on Facebook.  I had no clue about a blog, YouTube, a like page but that willing to learn kicked in.  I’m an introvert and for most of you both can do very well in this business that for sure is not a determining factor of one’s success.  I had personal areas of life that needed polished and ones that naturally shine everyone is different in their own strengths as a coach but as you coach you grow as a person. 



So what is your story?  Most common questions

Do I need a transformation?
Do I need to be at my goal weight?
How much time does it take every day?
How do you actually earn money?
What else do you earn beyond income?
 
I can't wait to answer all of your questions and get to know your own personal goals with the business.  I have created a system for my team based on what Team Beachbody has created to train new coaches and my own personal experience that has proven to be extremely successful at getting each and every new coach started right.  My goal is to not overwhelm you with the business but to teach you how to get started, to prioritize what is most important, to manage your time, to make this work while still having preserved your family balance and to help you earn an extra income for your family or even honestly replace a salary or income from a job you would like to change!  It takes a little prioritizing, time management, and multi tasking but you can absolutely make this business work for you! Whether its just a few hours a week or full time I can help you set goals that meet your lifestyle.  I have no minimum expectations and you can truly do as little or as much as you want as a coach!  I let you set the pace and I match that pace with your effort!!!  I am not your Boss or Dictator but I am your mentor, coach and guide!  All training will done from the comfort of your own home.  We start small on what basic steps need to be taken every day to get started right.  I want to show you how to learn in a small setting with videos, scripts, and guides to be successful as well.  I will honestly say that many people are afraid to take this leap of faith. They think it sounds like a good opportunity but most are afraid that they won't make any money at it, that they will have to sell to their friends, or that they don't know anybody to invite!  Trust me, I was right there with you!  New coach training starts March 3rd where we can start to work together to your personal goals.  Also just to be a fly on the wall starting next Monday the 23rd my sister and I will be hosting an informal group to ask questions with zero commitment.  This will be a place we share more in detail on what more of the day to day activities as a coach looks like.

 
Think your too small to make an impact? Your story won't inspire others? Your hard times won't bring comfort to others?

Ever throw a pebble into a lake?

The ripple effect keeps going...


It starts with one

21 Day Fix Extreme results


21 Day Fix Extreme results
 
 
 
The launch of the 21 day fix a year ago had an effect on beachbody like no other!!  It sold out more than twice, seeing results that at home fitness users had never seen before and of course the nutrition end of losing weight was nailed!!  I know personally after eating clean for me than a year when this program was released it was a big eye opener for portion control and also too much of one thing is not always the best (AKA I was eating too much fruit). Let's talk nutrition, while the 21 day fix allowed for wine and chocolate the 21 Day fix extreme does not.  It is 100% clean eating for these 21 days.  You do have the option to eat out at restaurants but you still have to follow the nutritional guidelines laid out.  Just think about it this way!  You can do anything you put your mind to for 21 days.  You will get the 21 day fix portion controlled containers with your program
purchase!
*The 21 day fix now holds the number one spot for at home fitness programs. 
 
 
21 Day Fix Extreme results



Who should buy the program?

21 Day Fix EXTREME is ideal for those with a dramatic short-term weight
loss deadline--such as an upcoming vacation, photo shoot, or other big event.
It's an excellent next step for 
21 Day Fix
 graduates ready for a new challenge
or graduates of other 
extreme programs like P90X, Insanity, and FOCUS T25.Fix EXTREME
 is also great for those who don't have much weight to lose,
but want to get shredded and see abs; those with a "no BS" attitude toward
workouts and nutrition; or anyone who doesn't want to count calories, weigh
 their food, or follow complicated recipes.

This is an advanced program.

Pilates Fix Extreme, Cardio Fix Extreme, Dirty 30 Fix Extreme  and
