Sun Damage, Brown Spots, Uneven Skin Tone...OH My!

Are you one of the many people who have ever gone out in the sun and forgotten your sun screen?  Well, most likely, your answer is YES!  I know I have done that plenty of times!  As good as my intentions are, sometimes I just forget!

I have always loved laying out in the sun and getting a good tan.  While I have been way more careful over the years to apply sun screen or maybe not be out quite as long, the sun damage (while not always noticeable) is there anyway!

In October of 2015, I was introduced to this amazing little regimen from Rodan + Fields, called Reverse!  Honestly, I really didn't know I needed it (or that my skin would even respond to it).  I didn't think of myself having "bad skin".  I did notice it did have some uneven tone, dullness and maybe a few brownish spots.  So...I decided it was time to do something for my skin!

My first experience with Reverse and washing my skin, I noticed that it felt SO soft and I was really surprised as to how it felt!  After 30 days, I was already seeing a difference in the way my skin looked (and felt)!  I was AMAZED!!

My skin was brighter, softer/smoother, had fewer brown spots and looked more even-toned!  Just after 30 days!!  So, I continued using it to see what it could do through the next 30 days!  Much to my shock, it continued getting better and brighter!  I've now been using Reverse for 8 months and continue to see a change in my skin!  While I'm not quite "foundation free", I am not embarrassed to go out in public with no make up!

Here's my results from October 2015 to June 2016.
Rodan + Fields Reverse Regimen Results, Reverse Before and After, Anti-Aging Skin Care, Julie Little

I know you're wondering exactly what this "Reverse" is and where you can get it, right?!?!  Let me tell you a little about this!

Rodan + Fields offers 4 skin care regimens to target the most common skin problems.  Probably one of the most popular ones to start with is Reverse.  It gives you a great exfoliation and even-toned complexion to get you started!  

Reverse is a 4 step regimen.  It uses a multi-med therapy system to make sure that each step in the regimen is being used to complement the other and make it more effective!

Reverse exfoliates dulling and dead skin, addresses the appearance of unwanted pigmentation, helps even and brighten overall look of skin tone, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and protects against further UV damage providing a long-term solution for a radiant complexion.  

Step 1 - Deep Exfoliating Wash
Step 2 - Intensive Brightening Toner
Step 3 - Dual Active Brightening Complex
Step 4 - Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Sunscreen

Check out some amazing before and after pictures of other consultants and customers who have used Reverse!

This is Jenna, here's what she has to say about her results:  "6 months later, I am still LOVING my results! Time and consistency with R+F's clinical grade products do not disappoint! 2 months of the REVERSE Regimen, followed by 2 months of the REVERSE Accelerator Pack. I have been using the Multifunction Eye Cream, REVERSE in the morning and REDEFINE at night since December. In addition I am using the AMP MD Roller daily and the MACRO Exfoliator once a week! I love seeing the continued improvements in my skin! It just keeps getting better and better!"

Ulla suffered from "the pregnancy mask" and dark spots from too many sunny, summer days without enough sunscreen. It took her only 4 months to get the gorgeous results below by using Rodan+Fields SOOTHE, REVERSE, our Multi-Function Eye Cream and the REVERSE Accelerator Pack. What a difference!!!

Whole Health Changes, Inside and Out! Check Out What's New!!

When I think about health, I think about the inside and out...full, whole health!  This includes what you put into your mouth and feed your body...but also, what you do on the outside to care for yourself and health!

So what does that look like?  You take care of your body by exercising --> then you eat healthy --> so what's next?  What you do with your skin!  If you care about the fitness and nutrition of your health, then it's just as important to care for your SKIN, let's face it...we've all got it, and...like it or not, we are all aging EVERY single day!  ;)

Rodan + Fields, Julie Little, Anti-aging Skin Care, Eat Right


I'm excited to share some new news with you!  I am partnering with the #1 anti-aging skin care company in the United States, Rodan + Fields!!  Have you heard of it?

Rodan + Fields has been named the #1 Premium Anti-Aging Brand

Well...if you haven't heard of Rodan + Fields, then maybe you've heard of Proactiv?  Yep...that's right...the same doctors (Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields) who created Proactiv are the same ones who have now gone into the anti-aging skin care world and created R+F.  Which means, I'm partnering with the doctors who have already created a multi-billion dollar empire with Proactiv, and I'm CERTAIN they will do the exact same thing with R+F (in fact we're set to become a billion dollar company this year!!).

Rodan + Fields, Julie Little, Anti-aging Skin Care

Caring for your skin is so important.  No matter what age you are, it is never too early to start caring for your sink.  I used to think when I was in my 20s that I was "too young" to start using a reputable skin care line.  I didn't have "wrinkles" and I thought that's all you would treat!  Well...I wish I would have learned this differently!

What I love about Rodan + Fields is that there is something for everyone at any age...whether you are 18 or 81, there is something for you!  I will get more into some of those options and details in the coming posts, but...do know, there is something for YOU!

I'm excited to share more with you as we go along...I will also continue to share healthy recipes and health tips!  So stay tuned for even more health tips, anti-aging tips and healthy recipes!!

Here's just a sneak peek of the last 6 months of using this product on my skin, consistently!!  I'm thrilled with my results and really had no idea that my skin texture was so poor until I started exfoliating each day!  WOW...the texture and feel of my skin is amazing now and not to mention the brightness of my skin and brown spots have decreased!!  Wahoo!  Here it is...in just 6 months check out the transformation of my skin!!  This is using the REVERSE Regimen, morning and night.  :)

The Best Butt Lifting Program - Master's Hammer and Chisel Review

I've not done an update lately on what I'm doing to keep myself in shape so here it is!!  Back in December, I started doing the new program The Master's Hammer and Chisel.  It quickly became my FAVORITE workout!  I have really fallen in love with lifting weights!  (Major shocker for me...I was always a cardio junkie).

I've now started my 2nd round of Hammer and Chisel and I'm now on week 4 of my second round.  The first round I finished with results that I was proud of, they weren't stellar, but neither was my complete consistency in my nutrition (I  know this makes a HUGE difference in results).  However I will share with you that this program has done THE MOST for reshaping my body and I fully believe that it's because it's more lifting weights than I've done before!

Here's one of my favorite set of moves in one of the workouts!  It's definitely challenging, but so worth the challenge as you see yourself improving and getting better!!



My first round of the 60 day program, I lost about 2.5 lbs and 4 inches.  Now...this is not over the top results.  BUT...the biggest difference is the SHAPE of my body, the way my clothes fit, my BUTT is finally becoming lifted (seriously, that's a pretty sweet thing!), and I'm definitely more confident in my clothes and bathing suit!

So...let me repeat!  This is THE BEST program that I've found that will LIFT YOUR BUTT!!  And no...you don't have to be 20 for this to happen.  I'm 35 years old and have seen such a difference in that area!!  Hands down, my favorite program for toning your backside!

Hammer and Chisel Women's Results - From Cardio Junkie to Loving Lifting Weights, www.HealthyFitFocused.com, Julie Little Fitness


SO...starting the 2nd round of Hammer and Chisel, my goal is to increase my weights and really push myself.  Now, I'll be the first to admit that my consistency in this program has come from my workouts...honestly, my nutrition has NOT been as consistent while on this program (one reason I'm finally doing an update here...to keep me accountable).  Even in the first 3 weeks of my 2nd round I've not been as consistent in following a meal plan for the program!

Like I say to my challengers, IF YOU FAIL TO PLAN, YOU PLAN TO FAIL!  It's so true (from first hand experience for sure!).

It's a NEW week and it's never too late for a refresh!  Today marks the time where I'm committing to the nutrition plan along with my consistency that I've already proven in my workouts.  For whatever reason, I've resisted sticking to a nutrition plan during the workout!  Well...no more!  It's GO TIME!!

One reason I'm doing this program is to really challenge my body...but I have to fully commit to both aspects, nutrition and fitness!  So, what is the best way to do that??  By creating a meal plan and sticking to it this week!!  So here's what I'm doing!



So...I'm committing, right here - right now...to both the nutrition and fitness aspects of the Hammer and Chisel!  I'm excited to see the results!!

Are you looking to change your body and really see what it's capable of?  Maybe you're looking to add some weight lifting to your routine?  Or...maybe you would just like to have a lifted and toned BUTT??  If you're looking for a change and want to join me in the Master's Hammer and Chisel Journey, I'd love to support you in your journey! If so, fill out the application below and I'll connect back with you for more details!

Plus, I can't go without saying that there's a crazy awesome deal going on right now with this program that I'd love to share with you, so make sure you fill out your info below so I can get you the deeds!

It has changed the way I feel about food and the way my body feels. I notice when I have a cheat meal, or something my body is not used to, my body lets me know!!

Mom Tip: How to Help your Kids Swallow Pills (or Vitamins)

MOM TIP!!

How many of you have struggled with helping your kids learn how to swallow pills or vitamins?  I remember how difficult it was growing up and having to make that switch from "chewable" to "grown-up pills".  Let's face it, it's a necessary skill every kid has to learn (and every parent has to figure out how to teach!).

Mom Tip: How to Help your Kids Swallow Pills (or Vitamins), Julie Little Fitness, www.HealthyFitFocused.com


Just yesterday we were sitting down for a weekend family breakfast.  Our vitamins were out on the table and we had just run out of the kid "chewable" vitamins.  My daughter was getting over being sick, and my hubby and I thought this was the perfect time for our kids to "learn how to swallow pills", (mind you, they are 8, 11, 12...the time is right!).

So, my husband said, "ok kids, we're out of the kids vitamins so it's time you learn".  Moans and groans and complaints started flying out of the kids' mouths.  I could see some giant tears getting ready to form in my youngest's eyes with the thought that he'd have to "swallow" something!

Now, our vitamins aren't "sugar coated" and are fully natural and organic so they don't taste good if they stay in your mouth for longer than it takes to chug some water down!  We warned them of this, so told them it must be quick!

"Ok, here's what you'r going to do...put the vitamin in the back of your mouth on your tongue, then take a huge drink of water and keep drinking." my husband said.

Well, my little guy just froze.  My oldest decided he was going to be the pro and "show up" his siblings, and with one gulp...he was done (and letting us all know about it too!).  My daughter, well, not to be outdone by her brother decided to try.  We reminded her to drink quickly!

In went the vitamin, the water started to go down the hatch...and suddenly, she stopped.  Then came the faces of complete disgust, moved onto the gagging and "fake" throwing up motion (not dramatic in the slightest, lol).  Then all of a sudden, it gets spit out on her empty plate.

Well...that was an epic fail!

Mom Tip: How to Help your Kids Swallow Pills (or Vitamins), Julie Little Fitness, www.HealthyFitFocused.com


So...Plan 2!!

As moms, we always have to be thinking... So, I went to the kitchen, grabbed 9 mini M&M's for them to "practice" on.

My oldest got to eat all 3 because he already succeeded!

My little guy immediately ate one before I could even explain what was going to happen.

My daughter waited and probably wondered how this was going to help her!

"Ok guys, here's what you do...Jeremy, you get to enjoy yours since you already swallowed your vitamin.  Anthony and Katelyn, here's the deal.  You're going to practice with a mini M&M, put it in the back of your mouth and swallow it down.  IF you can swallow that down the first time, then you get to EAT the remaining M&Ms that you have and you don't have to practice anymore!"

Their eyes lit up with excitement at this point!

Anthony: "Well I'll take on that challenge."  M&M in the mouth, water down the hatch...and his finger in his mouth searching for the M&M that he surprisingly couldn't find!!  "I DID IT!!  IT'S GONE!!"  So, we cut up a vitamin into thirds and gave it to Anthony and Katelyn.  Anthony did the same thing as the M&M, and magically it disappeared!!  BOOM...down the hatch!!

"GREAT JOB Anthony!!  You can NOW enjoy your 3rd M&M!!"

"Katelyn, it's your turn!!"

Well, not to be outdone by her younger brother, she knew she needed to do the same, but was very hesitant because of her previous attempt!  Finally, she did it...one M&M down the hatch, followed by the vitamin and BOOM...she gets to enjoy 2 M&Ms!!

So there you have it!  An easy way to help your kiddos learn how to swallow pills and graduate from chewables to grown up pills!!

Spicy Slow Cooker Chicken

I recently bought 2 whole chickens from Costco.  I cleaned the yucky insides out and popped them in the freezer (learned to clean out the insides before freezing them...heed this advice if you choose to freeze whole chickens!!).  So I thawed one over night last night and needed something that was quick, easy and delicious!  CROCK POT!!  It's my "quick and easy" solution to everything!

I went searching for a great recipe and ran across one from Kate O Lynch (original recipe here) and thought it looked amazing!  I had to do some modifications to the original because I was making this last minute and thought I had all the spices...but improvised instead!

Spicy Whole Chicken (Slow Cooker Style!)
Spicy Slow Cooker Chicken, Healthy Dinner, www.HealthyFitFocused.com, Julie Little Fitness
2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper (My substitution was red pepper flakes about 1/3 tsp b/c I didn't have cayenne pepper!!)
1 tsp Onion Powder (my substitution was onion flakes...again b/c I didn't have the powder!)
1 tsp Thyme
1 tsp Pepper
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 Whole Roasting Chicken
1 Onion, sliced and broken in pieces

So...like you learned above, this was a "last minute" throw together.  I did not allow the chicken to soak in with the spices overnight, however you could do that to make the flavor deeper!

I cut up the onions and broke them apart to line in the crockpot.  Mixed together all the spices above and patted the chicken, bottom first an then top, covered it completely (and I used it all).  Placed the chicken on top of the onions and set my crock pot on low for 4 hours.  I'm sure you could leave it a bit longer if you'd like but you don't want to dry it out.

After it's cooked, remove from crock pot and let it sit for a few minutes to cool some and allow the juices to soak into the chicken.  Cut up the chicken as you like and it's ready to serve!

You can easily serve this with brown rice or quinoa or potatoes along with some veggies.  OR you could serve this in tortillas and turn it into more of a Mexican meal.  Either way is absolutely delicious!!

Hope you enjoy!!

Battle of the Bulge - Spring Health and Fitness Accountability

Spring is here and do you know what that means?  SUMMER is right around the corner!  Yep...bathing suits, beaches, pools, shorts, tank tops... All of that!

Well, I know sometimes it's easy to let winter go by and stay cuddled up because it's cold and a good excuse to allow the pounds to pack on!  Not that it's something we set out to do...but it just happens!!

If you're ready to get that winter layer off and feel confident for summer then NOW is your time to do that!  Seriously, it's March...by the time the kids are out of school by June, you'll want to be ready to feel good and be active!  That's a solid 2 months that you have to really be serious about getting back in shape!

Battle of the Bulge, Health and Fitness Accountability Group, Julie Little Fitness, www.HealthyFitFocused.com

There's nothing worse than not feeling confident in your skin when you're trying to have a great time with your kids at the pool!  I've been there for sure!  You know the times...you take off your coverup and still want to sit there "covered up"...yet at the same time try and keep convincing yourself that you feel great!  Ladies...now is the time!!

Starting on March 14th, we will begin our PREP WEEK for the Battle of the Bulge.

This will be a 30 day accountability and support group.  This is for people who are SERIOUS about getting their health and fitness back in shape!  It's not for anyone who isn't COMMITTED!!

5 Minute Meal - "Spiced" Black Bean Soup

Are you ready for this?  Yes...I did say a 5 Minute Meal!  And guess what??  It's pretty healthy too!!  Now, just to be clear, this probably isn't my "go-to" for the 21 Day Fix meal plans (FOR SURE), simply because it would require too many yellow (carb) containers since the base of it is black bean soup.  However, now that we are into soccer season and 3 kids with practice and a hubby who coaches one of them, our family dinners are not as easy to come by.  So, I made this last night for a quick meal after practice and I had some leftovers that I picked from!  So it all worked out.

I will warn you...this is super delicious, but only makes enough for 4 good sized servings of soup!

5 Minute Healthy Meal - Spiced Black Bean Soup, Julie Little Fitness, www.HealthyFitFocused.com Are you ready, this is quick!


  • Trader Joe's Latin Style Black Bean Soup 
  • 1/2 cup of fresh salsa
  • 1 can of chicken breast (if you have grilled chicken already prepared you can add this instead, but this made my meal super quick and easy!)
  • 1/2 cup (or more) of frozen corn

Place all the ingredients into a pot and cook until warm (or hot, whichever you prefer).  

You can top with cheese or avocado or cilantro if you want to spice it up even more!

There you have it!  Moms I know we ALL need quick and delicious meals on the fly!  Here ya go!  :)


If you are following the 21 Day Fix, this probably isn't my first choice of meals (I'd rather have my yellow used elsewhere).  I would probably count this as 2 yellows, 1/2 red for a cup of soup.

21 Day Fix Vanilla Cake with Chocolate Frosting

I made this for a special treat for Valentine's Day for our family!  I didn't know what to expect, but I had heard it was really good!  I started making it and wondered if it was going to turn out ok.  My hubby even turned his nose up to this as I was making it and thought he'd have to go out and get a different dessert for the kids!  However...it did NOT disappoint once we dug into it!!

I will warn you, this is not your typical cake batter that you would expect.  I did have concerns that it would cook up properly as I was going through, so just know there is going to be some separation when you're mixing the honey, butter and eggs...this was normal (at least in my preparation)...however it did turn out just fine!!

I did have to add a considerable amount of time for cooking.  It called for 25-30 minutes and I probably cooked it for closer to 40-45 minutes.  It was still very moist and absolutely delicious!
