I have begun the Advocare 24 day challenge to jump-start some weight loss and energy boost. I am on day 5 and I am already feeling a difference. The first few days of the program are a cleanse, so I am eating really well, no white breads, rice etc, no sugar (this one is killer for me). But I am sticking with it. I will cheat a little on V-day and have a red velvet brownie. I am also tracking my calories and exercise on Myfitnesspal.com. It’s a really great tool to help keep me on track.
I am trying a few new recipes this week and I can’t wait. Those quinoa bites are calling my name.
What sweet treats do you have planned this week?

Breakfasts:
