I have been finding such fun, clean recipes lately and even throwing together some random things on my own. I am really trying to build muscle, which is so hard to do, but eating clean has definitely re-shaped my body. I can honestly say I feel and look better now than ever in my life. I am healhty, happy, strong, energetic and I know it's all from eating good and working out hard. I have decided that the scale isn't a good measurement for me, so I like to take progress pics. This helps me see the changes my body is making and not to be controlled or obsessed with a certain weight. I am at a healthy body fat% right now and it has taken awhile to reach that both physically and mentally. I have been reading my patriarchal blessing lately and there is a part in it that has always hit home...one of the biggest reasons I got my bachelor's in Food and Nutrition Management. It says that I will have opportunities to give service in helping others' have good physical and mental health. How can I help others if I haven't reached that myself? That has been my goal and although there is always room for improvement I feel like I have found very good balance in my life. I have also gotten more proactive at posting pics of what I eat or workouts I love on instagram and facebook. This has spurred a lot of questions from friends, family and people and it has been so fun to be able to help out...even if it's in just a small way. Nutrition and fitness has been a passion of mine since college and I just love sharing that passion with others. Like I said, even if in some small way it can help someone then I have fulfilled what I feel is one of my purposes here on earth:)

Eating Clean and Training Dirty
My spin on a Cafe Rio salad. Cabbage, peppers, cucumbers, pinto beans, shredded chicken, avocado, lime juice, nutritional yeast and sea salt...yummy!
This was such a random, thrown-together post workout meal, but man was it good. Cinnamon/Stevia egg whites, yams, Pb2 and a few slivered almonds for some crunch...jackpot!
