Banana Almond Smoothie

I have been on the Shaklee 180 weight management program for 3 weeks now and I can’t even begin to explain how good I feel every time I drink my daily energizing smoothie. I love all 4 of the rich creamy and delicious flavor. When I have time in the morning I will blend up my smoothies with some fruits and/or vegetables for more nutrition and to change it up from day to day.

One of my favorite fruits to add to my smoothies would have to be bananas. I love them fresh or frozen and it blends well with so many flavors. Today I used the the Vanilla Energizing Smoothie although I love bananas with the Chocolate and Strawberry Energizing Smoothee as well.

You will need:

1 Cup Milk

1/2 Banana

1 Teaspoon Slivered Almonds (Blend in the blender first before adding any ingredients to get them finally chopped)

1 Scoop of Shaklee Physique Natural Banana (This is an amazing for muscle recovery after you work out)
1 Scoop of Shaklee 180 Energizing Vanilla Smoothee mix.

Ice (Blend until creamy)

I would love to know that you like to put into your smoothies. I am always looking to try out new smoothies and new ingredients, are there any you think I just have to try?

Thank you all for reading and for following along.

Keeping Your Shoes Smelling Fresh!

Are you looking to have clean and fresh smelling shoes? Have you ever bought a new pair of shoes and think to yourself how long you are going to need to use them?

Well… I bought these shoes knowing that I was going to be working out in them 4 to 5 days a week, at lease until my wedding (more details coming). Therefore I need them to last at least 7 months. A little while ago, someone told me about this little trick to help you keep your shoes smelling clean and fresh. Your shoes need to be able to breath, especially when you wear them all the time!

By putting a Get Clean Dryer Sheet into your shoe after you are done wearing it, you will be amazed how long your shoes will smell like new! It has such a fresh and clean sent. Knowing that I spend a lot of time in these shoes and that they are getting a lot of use out of them, I need to keep them smelling nice. 🙂

There are so many things I love about these dryer sheets. It isn’t just the fresh smell but it is because it isn’t a strong sent. They are all natural, biodegradable and “Safe for you, your home and your Planet”.

Get Clean Dryer Sheets will help keep the Smell away in your shoes

Another great tip would be to always wear socks with your shoes. It makes a huge difference.

I have never had a problem with my shoes smelling but I know that this is a great way to keep that from happening. Especially in the winter when your feet are stuck in shoes all the time!

Have you every had this happen to you? What have you done that has helped?

Chocolate Covered Banana Smoothee!

For the past 2 weeks I have had the privilege on being able to get up every morning at 5:30A.M. to go over to my Fiancés house to work out! This has been an amazing experience for the both of us and we are going to be continuing to do so until our wedding. Being that I am not a morning person, I get more excited about my breakfast smoothee I have after I work out then actually working out lol. Well at least for now, maybe that will change later. My fiancé is a total morning person and he is convinced that he is going to convert me. 😉 We will see, maybe I will convert him!

I also like to change things up from day to day. This morning I had what I like to call a Chocolate Covered Banana Shaklee 180 Smoothee. It is the best breakfast for any morning. It fills you up for a good couple of hours and it leaves you feeling satisfied and healthy.

You will need:

1 Cup Milk

1/2 Banana

1 Scoop of Shaklee Physique Natural Banana (This is an amazing for muscle recovery)
1 Scoop of Shaklee 180 Energizing Chocolate Smoothee mix. (For an extra chocolaty flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of cocoa)

Ice (Blend until your favorite consistency)

Are you a morning person like my fiancé or are you more of a night owl like I am?

Do you have smoothies in the morning? If so, what is your favorite recipe? I would love to give it a try!

A Poofy Ponytail Made Easy

When I look at someone wearing their hair in a poofy ponytail I immediately think of fun and flirty. It is the type of hair style that says “Oh this old hair style? I only wear this when I don’t care how I look” and yet they worked pretty hard to get their hair to look like that. I remember the first time I saw someone with their hair in a poofy pony and I wanted to know how to do that. So naturally, being the type of personality I am, I went ahead with out a doubt in my mind that I would get it right the first time. Well, maybe the second or third. Fine, it took me a while to figure out how to master that style. Although now that I have mastered the poofy ponytail with a few simple steps, I have decided to share with you what I wish I knew then.

My hair was curly today although you can achieve the same style on straight hair.

Here is the video showing you just how I achieve this style.

You will need a few things:

Prosante Finishing Spray
Unite Volumizing Powder

One Clear Elastic Band

A Pick / Teasing Comb

Bobby Pins

Wouldn’t you agree that after you saw the video the poofy ponytail seems to be so much easier and achievable? I would love to know how this has helped you. Maybe you can leave a comment sharing your experiences? Well, I hope that this video helped you. If you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Until next time, I am
