Baked Tempeh - Ultimate Reset Recipe

Tempeh...ever heard of it?  Well I hadn't before I started the Ultimate Reset. But I've gotta say I was pleasantly surprised by how it tasted. With the marinade I used it was actually pretty tasty!!  I've had this for dinner and breakfast during this program and it's kept me satisfied!  

For those of you who don't know what Tempeh is, it is a fermented soy product that's high in protein and easy to digest. It's available in the refrigerated section of health food stores and Trader Joe's. 

Ultimate Reset Recipe2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
2 Tbsp Bragg Liquid Aminos
1-1/2 tsp Sesame Oil
1-1/2 tsp Pure Maple Syrup 
1/2 Clove Garlic, minced
4 oz Tempeh, cut into 1/2 inch strips. 

Combine vinegar, Bragg Liquid Aminos, oil, maple syrup and garlic in small bowl; mix well. Place Tempeh in shallow dish and pour marinade over tempeh. Marinate for an hour in fridge turning once to get marinade on both sides. 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 10-15 min on both sides.

Ultimate Reset Phase 1 Update and Progress!

WOW!  I'm finished with the first week of the Ultimate Reset!  I can't believe it!  I really feel so successful with this program.  I am loving it and the food is amazing!  (Not sure what the Ultimate Reset is?  Click HERE!)

Fruits and Veggies, The Ultimate Reset
Eat whole and fresh foods!

This has really been an eye-opening experience for me.  Here are some things I've learned:

    Good habits, The Ultimate Reset
  • I have had bad habits centered around food.
  • I can overcome these habits.
  • I can make dinner without snacking on it (and adding countless calories at the same time!).
  • My body enjoys variety in my diet.
  • I don't NEED a snack after dinner and before bed!!
  • I love drinking so much water throughout the day.
  • I can survive without COFFEE (I can't believe I just said this…not sure I want to admit!)
  • Fueling my body the correct way makes a HUGE difference in how I feel!
  • I can live without Peanut Butter (something I thought I'd never say!)
  • I could actually live just fine without having meat! (again…didn't think I'd say this!)
  • I CAN FOLLOW A PLAN TO A "T" AND BE SUCCESSFUL!!

These are just a few things I've learned over this first week!


Ultimate Reset Update, Discipline


The results are in...
So far I have completed the first phase of the program and 
in 7 days I've lost 5.5 lbs!!  Whoop Whoop!

The benefits of this program are so much more than just the weight loss.  Yes, that's a GREAT benefit…But I've been able to give my body the rest and cleansing it needs for better functioning and performance.  

For days 5, 6 and 7… 

These days were pretty good.  There was nothing really out of the ordinary that I noticed.  Other than being really tired on day 7, I've really felt good so far.  (Honestly, I'm waiting for the crash this week…I just feel like this coming week may be different, but we'll see).  I have stuck to the meal plan to a "T" and not cheating at all.  

I'm really looking forward to the next 2 weeks and see how I continue to change and what the rest of this program entails.  I really have no idea what to expect so we shall see!

So here are my meals from the last 3 days.  (Days 5, 6, and 7)

Lose the Fat for Summer!

I can't believe that it's already more than half way through May already!  Once we whit Memorial Day, the inedible is right around the corner…be it good or bad…SUMMER!!  Now, if you are like most women (not to leave the guys out on this one, but some men…) you dread the thought of "summer" because of getting into your swimsuit!  Or maybe you've recently tried on those shorts from last summer and wondered why the heck they don't fit anymore!

Can I get an AMEN to that??  I know you are out there…we've all be there at least one time in our lives, if not more!

Summer Bikini time!  21 Day Fix Challenge


Well…there's good news to this!  YES, I'm serious…GOOD NEWS!!!  It's not too late to still lose some weight and inches before Summer or some of your great vacations you may have planned!

I know time is of the essence, but anyone can commit to 21 days, am I right?


If I provided you with a 21 day program that includes a simple eating plan that helps with portion control and tell you exactly what you need to eat and how much of it, and you could lose 8-15 lbs. 

No need to count calories by the way and you can eat whatever you want. 
Would you be interested?

21 Day Fix, 21 days to make or break a habit



There's no secret…there's no magic pill.  It's going to require you to be focused…committed to your goal…ready to do the work…and confident you will succeed!  You CAN feel better about yourself for summertime, there's no reason you can't start NOW!

Summer slim down, pounds lost, www.HealthyFitFOcused.com
Are you ready to make a change…Start now!


On May 27th I am kicking off my 25 Days Until Summer Challenge.  
My goal is to help you get rid of the excuses that have been weighing you down and keeping you from reaching your goal…we'll talk about the emotional eating, I'll give you tools to be successful and teach you how to make it a lifestyle and not a crash diet.  We will work on getting a meal plan that is right for you with the kinds of foods you like to eat, kid tested and husband approved!!  My mission is to set you up for success.  We will work through creating a successful a plan for you and motivating you to and giving you the accountability to help push you though your goals!  This is not something you will have to do alone!

I call this group a CHALLENGE GROUP!  This is not a competition to see who can win or lose the most weight, but it is an accountability group.  A place that you can feel safe, comfortable talking about your struggles and triumphs, where you won't be judged for making a mistake, instead we encourage you and celebrate all the victories along the way!

21 Day Fix Challenge Group, what is a challenge Group?

The group will begin on May 27th (just after Memorial Day!).  The requirements are that I am YOUR coach!  This will be an exclusive 21 Day Group using the 21 Day Fix plus you will be required replace ONE meal a day with Shakeology for the duration of the challenge.   Then I will add you to the accountability group where we will set goals, track our progress and make your meal plan, teach you how to prepare healthy snacks, I will give you recipes…and MORE!  (More info on the 21 Day Fix click HERE)

So yes, I'm sure you stopped at the "Shakeology" and said, "heck no I don't do shakes" or you said "I don't want to be dependent on a shake to lose weight", right?  Well I was the exact same way.  Let me just say, I was surprised at the difference Shakeology made in the way I felt.  Clearly I wasn't eating the recommended daily veggies or even getting enough of the vitamins and nutrients and minerals from my foods I was eating.  When I added Shakeology (not a protein shake but a complete all natural meal) I stopped having cravings for sweets, I had more energy, I didn't have the afternoon slump at 2pm…it really is amazing!!  Ok…enough about that!

The challenge groups have changed my life!!  This is no joke.  As a mom, it's so easy to put everybody else first, feed the kids, get to all the activities they have, etc.  Well, where's the time to take care of myself?  I didn't have time to go to the gym and workout.  I can do this right in my living room. I have the support and accountability that I had always needed and craved.  It is a PERECT fit!!

What do you have to lose besides fat?, www.HealthyFitFOcused.com


Do you need that kind of support?  Do you continue to sign up for gym memberships thinking that "this time" it will be different and I will get up and go to the gym and then fail to follow through?  Not this time…It's different now!!  You are READY and I am here to help you change!

It all starts with you COMMITTING to MAKE a CHANGE!!  Are you READY??

Space is limited so when the group fills up then you will go on the waiting list for the following months group!  

21 Day Fix, be the best version of you, summer challenge group

The Ultimate Reset Progress Update- Days 3 and 4

I've made it past 4 days on the Ultimate Reset!    It's been quite a wild ride, I must say!

(Not sure what the Ultimate Reset is…Click HERE)

In 4 days I'm down 3.5 lbs!!  Whoop Whoop!!

Day 3 was on Friday for me…

Everything went pretty good.  I had fairly a good amount of energy.  I didn't have very bad headaches at all, but did start to feel my body ache as I went though out the day.  I knew that would be some of the feelings I may have (body aches), and that's because the toxins are being released.  I'm drinking a gallon or more of water throughout the day, so I know I'm getting plenty of water!

My meals on Friday were really good.  I'm SUCH a creature of habit when it comes to my food, that I know this is really good for me to be mixing up my food and nutrients every day.  I will admit, I'm in the kitchen A LOT with these recipes.  It's not that they are hard to make, I'm just not used to them and sometimes they are time consuming, but they are so worth it.

Day 3 Ultimate Reset Meals, www.HealthyFitFocused.com
Day 3 Meals - Ultimate Reset

Day 4…that's another story…

Well, to say everything was fine and dandy on day 4 would be a LIE!!

Ultimate Reset - Go Far!.  www.HealthyFitFocused.com
How far will you go?

Everything started out nicely on Saturday (Day 4).  I got a later start to the day because I slept in.  (And did I ever mention that on the Ultimate Reset, they tell you to NOT WORKOUT because your body needs the break while it is working hard to detox!!!).  So I had breakfast a bit later than normal, which was a giant plate of fruit (it was beautiful) and some yogurt.  It was delicious, but I was hungry so quickly afterward!!  It didn't keep me satisfied for long enough.  But, I kept pounding the water.  

Keep Calm Drink More Water, www.HealthyFitFocused.com

I devoured my lunch which was delicious, Nori Rolls with Temphe and Veggies and a Lentil-Lime Salad!  Then we went out to run some errands for the afternoon.  By the time my snack came around, I was SO hungry again and it was the best snack I'd ever had (because I was really hungry).  I was starting to feel body aches and a little dizzy and just not too good over all.  I was starting a headache as well.  

Dinner rolls around, and I've got a pretty good sized headache coming along.  Dinner was AMAZING…Stir-fried veggies with quinoa & Cucumber and Tomato Salad.  It was a ton of food, which I was really happy about, but by the end of dinner I had a raging headache.

My head got so bad that I turned into bed at 7:50 pm just to get in a dark and quite room.  I slept a couple hours and woke up and still had the headache so I soaked my feet in warm water hoping that would help.  On the Reset, they want you to NOT take any pain medications because you are trying to rid your body of all that stuff!  So I held off as long as I could and finally by 10 pm my head was so bad it was throbbing like I've never had it before (I'm used to migraines and this was more painful than I've ever had!).  So I finally broke down and had 1 Advil and was able to get to sleep!  Let's just say I was happy for that day to be over!!

Day 4 Ultimate Reset Meals, www.HealthyFitFocused.com
Day 4 Meals - Ultimate Reset


Take away from the last 4 days--

• I like variety in my diet…it's a great change from being such a creature of habit!  While the work is a lot, it is well worth the work in the kitchen!

• It's an interesting process to be detoxing your body, and I think a definite MUST for everyone!  Not enjoying the headaches though…

The Ultimate Reset Days 1 and 2 Update!


Well, I've got days 1 and 2 in the bag so far on my 21 day journey of the Ultimate Reset.  I've got to say that I'm actually really enjoying this so far!  The foods and recipes I've been introduced to on this just in the 2 days are AMAZINGLY delicious!  I'll be sharing some of those recipes with you.

(Not sure what the Ultimate Reset is…Click HERE)

Ultimate Reset, www.HealthyFitFocused.com

I'm doing this for ME! www.HealthyFitFocused.comSo, you may be wondering WHY I am doing this Ultimate Reset…well, I am doing this for a few reasons…

• I want a RESET and fresh start for my body!
• Increase my Metabolism.
• I don't want to be a slave to food & emotional eating.
• I want to learn new healthy ideas and recipes for my family.
• I want my body to feel the way it's supposed to, free of toxins.
• I want to be at my OPTIMAL health for my family
• I want to complete this 21 day journey to the end and be proud of how far I've come!

I'm doing this for me, because I know that when I am feeling the best, I can give the most to my family, friends, and challengers!

Day 1

I was totally excited to get day 1 started…I had prepped the night before some of the things I would need for the week.  I actually had been prepping my body a few days before to be prepared for NO coffee in the morning.  Which, I think my body needs a break from every once and a while!  I knew I would get major headaches if I didn't slowly go off this!  So I switched to decaf from Sunday-Tuesday. My headache was minimal on Wednesday when I started.  YAY!!!  I did experience a bit of nausea and I think that was some of the coffee headache talking!

So the UR (Ultimate Reset) calls for you to drink Distilled water with "Mineralize" added to it.  So you add back in proper minerals to the nutrient void distilled water and drink on that ALL day!  Like over a gallon of water I've been drinking these last 2 days!!  

Ultimate Reset, WATER, www.HealthyFitFocused.com
Water on the Ultimate Reset!

I loved the food on day 1 it was so delicious and I was a bit hungry before lunch but I think that was my being used to having a snack between breakfast and lunch.  This program calls for 3 meals and 1 snack (but allows for you to add in extra snack if you need to!!).  So far I haven't because I think my portions have been a bit too big, so I want to truly make sure that it's hunger I am eating from and not habit!

So day 1 I really was expecting to "feel" different, and other than the headache I was great!

Here's my food I ate through the day!  And I'll say, I'm a creature of habit and like the same things all the time, so this is really putting me out of m comfort zone…I'm discovering different snacks to have and enjoy the variety!  I think it's good for my body to have variety!!

Plus I will add, this meal plan is SO CLEAN!!  It's amazing!!

Breakfast
Whole grain toast, 2 scrambled eggs, 1 1/2 cup steamed kale or spinach

Lunch
Miso Soup (this was a stretch for me…not bad, but not my favorite), Microgreen Salad, toasted raw pumpkin seeds (yummmm), and Ginger-Sesame-Miso salad dressing (this is my favorite!)

Dinner
Baked Salmon, steamed asparagus and boiled baby potatoes.

I must say I varied the salmon a bit...it was 100 degrees outside this day, I decided to grill the salmon instead and then there was a marinade that I was to use, so instead of marinading it, I made it and drizzled it over the top of the salmon and it was AMAZING!!!  It was a basil/lemon marinade!

Day 1 of Ultimate Reset, www.HealthyFitFocused.com
Day 1 Ultimate Reset
Day 2
Well, I woke up feeling great!  I had prepared my lunch the night before.  Gearing up for another REALLY hot day so I made sure that I had enough water.  I think I drank more than a gallon on day 2!

I didn't have any headaches this day, but toward the end of the night I was EXHAUSTED and I started having a few body aches.  Not much though.  I think this is part of the process of detoxing your body! 

Day 2 kind of finished with no real "feeling" that different, I felt great again, but was really tired at the end of the day!

Each day I take a packet of Alkalinize…it's not too bad!  It's my "Green" to alkalinize my body!  Go Green!!

The Ultimate Reset, www.HealthyFitFocused.com
Alkalinize - My daily Green Drink!


Day 2 Meals
Breakfast
Oatmeal with blueberries, plain organic yogurt sweetened with pure maple syrup (my favorite!).

Lunch
Greek salad with leftover salmon and pine nuts…homemade greek dressing.

Dinner
Southwestern Veggie Taco (this was YUMMY!)

I'm totally loving the food!!  I look forward to the variety each day!!

What is the Ultimate Reset?

Well today marks the day that I am starting Day 1 of the Ultimate Reset!  I'm really excited…a bit nervous…and ready to do this!  I plan to journal as much as I can over the next 21 Days of my experience and hope you'll follow along!  But in this post, I'm going to lay out for you what the heck this "Ultimate Reset" is…

Beachbody Ultimate Reset, www.HealthyFitFocused.com


What is the Beachbody Ultimate Reset? (Info straight from Beachbody…)

The Beachbody Ultimate Reset is a comprehensive, no-starvation, inner-body tune-up that offers much more than the typical cleanse and detox programs on the market.  The Ultimate Reset not only helps you eliminate toxins and waste gently and naturally, but it also maximizes your cellular energy production, helping your body process food more efficiently and your systems run more smoothly.  You'll replace the processed foods you've been eating with healthy foods.  You'll eat cleanly--possibly for the first time in your life--and take supplements designed to help your body remove from your cells and organs tons that you've been taking in for decades.

The Ultimate Reset is a complete, three-phase, 21-day mind and body program that provides everything you need to:
Beachbody Ultimate Reset, www.HealthyFitFocused.com, What is the Ultimate Reset?
  • Reclaim your body's natural balance
  • Release the harmful materials you may be storing within you
  • Restore your system to its maximum health
Some of the benefits of the program described by participants:
  • Flush toxins from organs
  • Improved digestion
  • Increased energy
  • A more positive mood
  • Weight loss (improved BMI)
  • Lowered cholesterol
  • Eliminated dependencies on sugar and caffeine
  • Improved overall health
The Beachbody Ultimate Reset program will help you gently restore your body to its "original factory settings" to be able to feel, look, and be healthier!  This is a breakthrough program you won't want to overlook!

Why Reset?
We live in an environment that that has become increasingly filled with more and more toxins.  Our bodies absorb pollution and harmful chemicals our entire lives, along with the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink.  These toxins get into our bodies and are stored, clogging our cells and slowing down their natural functions.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, the average American has approximately 219 toxic chemicals stored in his body, primarily in fat cells.  This toxic overload can help lead to premature aging, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.  In fact, the American Cancer Society states that 75-80% of cancer deaths are linked to environmental factors like toxins.

It's not enough to just work out and eat right.  Beachbody realized we had to take a break from the everyday and find a way to get the toxins out of our system.  Along with getting in shape on the outside, we needed to get healthy from the inside too!  It's time for a RESET!



Beachbody Ultimate Reset, www.HealthyFitFocused.com, Ultimate Reset Results



How does the Ultimate Reset work?
The Ultimate Reset is a 21-day program, but it’s helpful to think of it in three distinct phases, each 1 week long:

• Phase One: RECLAIM your body, accessing its inner chemistry and preparing for change.
• Phase Two: RELEASE the toxic compounds that are stored within your tissues.
• Phase Three: RESTORE your metabolism to maximum efficiency.

After just 21 days, you should feel dramatically better physically, mentally, and emotionally. Will it be challenging? Sometimes. But just as Beachbody’s workouts aren’t the easiest fitness programs you can do, the Ultimate Reset may also require some extra effort. In return, it can deliver extraordinary results. And keep in mind that no matter how challenging you may find it, you’ll have your Coach and the entire Team Beachbody® community in your corner to help you through.
Once you complete your 21-day program, you’ll have a “transitioning back” period, during which you’ll be guided back into life after the Ultimate Reset. You’ll get advice on food and exercise, along with helpful tips on how to maintain—and continue to build on—the great work you’ve accomplished.

What the Beachbody Ultimate Reset is NOT:
  • A starvation diet (you’ll eat three filling, healthy meals every day)
  • An abrupt cleanse that’s hard on the body (the supplements work together gradually to gently shift your body’s internal settings)*
  • A Laxative-based, colon-focused cleanse, which fails to truly detoxify the whole body (you won't be running to the bathroom every hour!)

    1. How is the Beachbody Ultimate Reset different from other cleanse programs?
      The Ultimate Reset isn’t a crash diet or a processed-food meal replacement. It’s an integrated, whole-body reset solution—a step-by-step program that lets you have real food along with the specially formulated supplements that are included. It also teaches you to engage in conscious living techniques that help you detoxify and restore your body. You’ll not only help return your metabolism to optimal function, you’ll learn conscious self-care behaviors that can help you maintain better health, even after your Reset.*
