I make protein waffles! Here's the recipe: 1 scoop vanilla protein 1 egg white 1/4 cup oats 1/4 cup almond milk A dash of vanilla 1 tsp baking powder 1-2 packets of Truvia or sweetener Blend in a blender til smooth! This makes 2 waffles for around 275 calories for all of it. I also enjoy adding a half scoop of protein to…

Haha that they are! I mean foods that are low in fat/calories that won't be too heavy that late at night, if that makes sense.

That's a great idea! I'll definitely try that!

I suffer from belly fat too! It all seems to go there! So annoying! I do Insanity and HIIT workouts as well as some lifting and it makes a huge difference. Eating clean, cutting out empty calories and calorie deficit is also key to losing stubborn belly fat. My goal is to shed 15-20 lbs and be able to wear a bikini in the…

Haha I do too! I have a hard time ignoring the hungry feeling sometimes.

Skinny pop popcorn is really good, a smoothie, gluten free pretzels and hummus, Cliff bars, cottage cheese, hard boiled eggs, or chia seed pudding are some of my go to choices!

Do you drink plenty of water? If not, this could be a big factor. Make sure the foods you are eating are nutrient dense. Cut out all diet sodas and alcohol unless you have extra calories. Make sure you're eating enough but don't cheat. Snacking adds up if you don't log your daily food intakes. You may just be on a plateau;…

Most unsweetened tea contains 0 calories. I love hot tea and I usually drink 3-5 cups a day! I love green, black, chai, and passion tea from Tazo. You can get a sample pack of tea from the grocery store for around $2 to see which flavors you prefer. I suggest sweetening it with Truvia, Stevia or raw honey/agave nectar. The…

Make a motivation board with quotes and pictures from Pinterest. Then make a goal; say you want to lose 10 pounds by April. If you make that goal, reward yourself with something nice like a shopping trip. I am actually doing a diet bet with my parents. Whoever loses 10% of their body fat by April wins $60. The winner can…

Insanity is a great way to get cardio and plyo into your routine!

I'm 22 and am trying to lose about 20 pounds. I have lost 50 pounds about 8 years ago so I am experienced with weight loss. My biggest tip is that food is the most important component to weight loss. Eat clean and drink LOTS of water. Don't deprive yourself of your favorite foods though. So if you want something from say,…

If I know I'm going to want some really fattening foods, I will do a really intense calorie burning workout that day and add in some yoga. So about an hour of exercise to burn around 500-600 calories. Then, for your meals leading up to that "cheat" meal, just go easy. Don't go overboard. If you know that your dinner will…

I love making a smoothie. My go to is a raspberry chocolate smoothie. I take about 1 cup of frozen raspberries, a Tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder, a splash of vanilla almond milk, and either some Truvia or Agave nectar for sweetness. It's like a milkshake but you won't feel guilty!

Pico de Gallo and low fat crackers or rice cakes! Yumm! If you want some healthy fats, add a Tbsp of avacado too!
