Motivation is a thing that can easily come and go at any given time. We have the choice to give in to our lack of motivation and skip out on the gym or prep healthy meals. The truth is, skipping the gym is not an option for me. There used to be a time where…

Chewy Cashew Vanilla Protein Bars
Happy Monday! What a beautiful last couple days of weather we have been having! I don’t feel like it is February 20th, I feel like it is April 20th. We had temperatures nearly in the 60’s Saturday and Sunday and today is down pouring with rain. This fake spring weather is getting my hopes up…
Paleo Strawberry Cheesecake with a Chocolate Drizzle
I am so proud of this recipe and so sad that it is already gone! I had some ladies over for brunch yesterday and they all loved it and then the hubby scarfed the rest of it up. It is actually really easy to put together, it just takes a little bit of time because…
Vanilla Raspberry Cupcakes
I’m going to be honest, I am not a big Valentines Day person. I just see it as a day made up by the greeting cards, candy and flower companies to sell more of their products. I believe in saying I love you and showing gratitude towards your loved ones every single day. The hubby…
Paleo Pomegranate Chocolate Bark
As quickly as Christmas came, it left just as fast. I can’t believe Christmas is over already! We had a very busy but very good Christmas. We were able to spend lots of quality time with all of our family members and stick to our Christmas traditions. Nick and I even stated our own little…
Thumbprint Christmas Cookies
Christmas is in six days! How did this happen? I feel like I was just stuffing my face at my family’s Thanksgiving feast and now I need to lock myself in a room and not come out until all the presents are wrapped for this weekend’s festivities. I probably won’t be able to come out…
Apple Crisp
I was called “high maintenance” the other week when I was ordering food at a restaurant. I was invited out to a Japanese restaurant with some co-workers and other people that I didn’t know. Because I know my body, what makes it feel good and what makes me feel like ish I ordered the chicken…
Arctic Zero Frozen Dessert Review
Let’s get straight down to it! Arctic Zero frozen dessert is low glycemic, lactose free and GMO free. In today’s terms, Arctic zero is f-ing awesome! I stumbled upon Arctic Zero awhile ago before they launched their five new flavors and I was already a dedicated customer fitting in the ice cream just about every…
Pecan Pumpkin Ice Cream
Happy Halloween! Did you celebrate over the weekend or are you celebrating tonight? Our Halloween celebration consisted of going to the movie Suicide Squad Friday night and then Saturday night we rented Conjuring 2 and made homemade pizza and had Arctic Zero ice cream for dessert! It was absolutely perfect. Stay tuned for Wednesday because I…
Paleo Caramel Apples
Caramel apples are one of those treats that take me back to my childhood. I absolutely loved caramel apples and remember only getting them around Halloween time. I was a no toppings type of kid but now, give me all the toppings! This caramel might not look like the real thing, but it sure taste…
