When it comes to healthy snacks, I would have to say that this is one of my favorite snack. It is a great combination between energy, protein and deliciousness! It is easy to make and even easier to eat.
The combinations are truly endless with this snack. I personally love shopping at Trader Joe’s for all of my food and I especially love their granola section. There are so many amazing oppositions and they all go well with what I am about to share. If you don’t believe me you are just going to have to see for yourself.
Measure out one scoop of your Shaklee 180 protein.
Pour the protein into your bowl.
Then measure out a half cup of the granola of your choice. (I used the Mixed Berries) Next you just need to pour the granola into the bowl.
Once you have everything in the bowl, give it a good mix up and……you are complete! Just add some Energy Tea (or Pomegranate Lemonade) and you are set for a perfect afternoon snack.
Now do you believe me? Doesn’t that look like a delicious treat? It has a little bit of everything in it. It is cool, crunchy, creamy and sweet. What more can you ask for in a healthy snack?
Have you ever lost weight? Have you ever achieved the after size that you set out to reach? Maybe you even took some before and after pictures, hoping you would fit into your skinny clothes again. What happens after you reach your goal? Losing weight can be an amazing feeling, unfortunately most people do what is called the “Yo-Yo” diets. They lose weight, and than gain it back again.
Shaklee 180 focuses not only on your before and after but what I like to call your after-after! It doesn’t just forget about you after you reach your after, it makes sure you never get back to your before. I like to call it my “Happily every after-after”. For those of you who don’t know My Story, I lost 40 lbs using the entire Shaklee 180 Weight Management Program. I lost most of my weight 3 years ago and have been taught specific tools that have helped me learn how to keep it off ever since.
Shaklee re-launched Shaklee 180 back in January and Brandon (my fiancé)and I teamed up got a group of people together to create a community of dedicated and motivated people who where all on track to loosing weight, getting fit and keeping it off.
Brandon and I joined the Healthy Competition to get in shape for our September wedding. I came up with a goal that I wanted to be ‘Tiny, Tone and Tan” before the wedding and I was going to do anything to help me get there. The Healthy Competition was just what I was looking for.
I will go into more details later, so for now I am just going to show you a brief glimpse of what you get as a Healthy Competition Winner! First off, Shaklee paid the way to Nashville (for Shaklee Live) for 2 people as well as 4 nights stay at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel. Check out this video that I put together about what to expect as a Healthy Competition Winner.
To start the trip off, I was greeted with this amazing gift basket full of my favorite Shaklee 180 goodies.
I was then fitted for my photo shoot, where I got to keep all of my clothes and shoes!! Booya!
I had a personal stylist for the day and let me say… As a professional cosmetologist I loved being the client for the day. Plus I learned a lot about applying make up and styling hair for professional photo shoots, which I totally enjoyed!
These were all 3 of my stylists for the day!
They made me look and feel beautiful for the entire day!
I had a chance to hang out and talk with the other Healthy Competition Winners.
They truly did not miss a single detail from my head to my toe.
Here is a sample of one of the pictures they took at the photo shoot. Shaklee is going to be using some of my pictures for 2014 marketing materials. 🙂 I am she so excited to see what Shaklee decides to use and for what materials.
On top of all of that, we had a interview on stage at general session in front of 6,000 people…
…then we were then featured on Shaklee Live Chat!!!
And last but not least, we had an opportunity to talk with the Owner and CEO of Shaklee (Roger Barnett).
Need-less-to-say this has been a once in a lifetime experience. Everyone in Shaklee has been so encouraging and they truly help you embrace the new you.
Unlike most programs, this one is guaranteed to work!

Every year when the new year comes, people also seem to ask me what my New Year’s resolution is going to be. Last year I was going for a “New Year, New You”. I decided to turnaround the way I look and feel about myself. I chose Shaklee 180 to help me achieve a healthier way of life. (This picture was taken after 1 month with Shaklee 180 in 2013).
The main reason I wanted to become a new me in 2013 was because I wanted to be “Tiny, Tone and Tan” come my wedding. After all of my hard work and dedication, I truly felt like I was the best version on myself on my wedding day. It was everything I thought it would be and so much more!
To be honest, most years I don’t usually follow through with my resolutions. Although, last year, I felt like I finished as strong and I had started. My Shaklee 180 Turnaround truly changed the way I look at my life and taught me not only how to live a healthier lifestyle but that I deserve a better lifestyle!
This year I am going to stop saying “I wish” and start saying “I will”! I can’t tell you how many times I wished something would happen and never did anything about it.
I am going to start making things happen in my life and I am going to start by changing my mindset. Last year, as soon as I realized that I could start eating better and living a healthier lifestyle, I started loosing weight, getting toner and gaining energy.
This year, I know now that I need to get in the mind right off the bat and stay in it all year long. I am going to stop wishing and start doing!
As most of you I am currently on the Shaklee 180 program and I have been loving it. I am so happy with the results so far and I can’t wait to see I how I look for the wedding. I can really tell that I am a changed women and I can’t even describe the amount of energy I have.
I have 1 to 2 smoothies a day I have become very creative with the different types of smoothies I have been making to help keep me motivated and to change it up from day to day. I also like to get creative for the holidays.
For St Patrick’s Day I am going to be making what I like to call the Green Monster! Don’t be fooled by the color, it is actually very sweet. It has a great combination of fruits and vegetables.
Blend until thick and creamy! This is a breakfast for champions.
I will be honest with you, when I made this most of my sibling didn’t want to try it because of the color. Once they did, they loved it.
No one except for the baby saw me make this smoothie, so they had to ask what was in it that made it green because they couldn’t tell by the taste! That is what I call hiding veggies!
This is a great way to get all of your morning nutrition in one glass. It has milk, protein, fruits and veggies. It tasted so good and I know that you are going to love it.
If you wouldn’t mind sharing, I would love to know what you and your family actually think of it.
Measure out one scoop of your Shaklee 180 protein.
Pour the protein into your bowl.
Then measure out a half cup of the granola of your choice. (I used the Mixed Berries)
Next you just need to pour the granola into the bowl.
