My January challenges- #NCCPTtransformme

Starting yesterday I officially started the #NCCPTTransformMe challenge! I will be taking my first pictures tomorrow and will be posting them weekly. yikes! I know I have to work on my nutrition alot, so I started another round of WHOLE30 which is basically a Paleo diet.

I am working with http://fitpregnancyandparenting.com/ as my trainer for both challenges. Amanda is amazing if you need daily encouragement and support!

I’m not going to lie-following a specific diet is hard to do! I don’t really miss sugar or treats-I miss my cheese and bread. I don’t have alot anyway because I try to be gluten free and dairy free, but I do miss it. I find that I end up having alot more fruit than I should, so I definitely need to work on having more protein and veggies.

Here’s some information of the two programs I am doing:

Are you starting any particular diet or exercise program this month? I would encourage you to start small and try to be consistent. No one is perfect-just try your best every day! Let me know what you’re doing so we can encourage and hold each other accountable!

Forskolin Extract by NutriRevolution product review


I was given a bottle of Forskolin complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

I took this supplement for a couple of weeks and didn’t notice any kind of difference. It probably wouldn’t be something I would order again because I feel like I would have to take it longer than 30 days in order to see any results.
