Healthy Delicious Chocolate Pudding. I'm not even kidding!

I had heard that Gaspari Myofusion protein worked pretty well in the microwave & for my post workout snack this morning, I thought I'd give it a whirl. Well, I nearly knocked my own socks off - it was THAT GOOD!!! Healthy chocoalte pudding that's actually good for you & easy to make? YES PLEASE!! 

Ingredients: 
1 scoop Gaspari Myofusion protein (I used chocolate though I'm keen to try other flavours)
1 egg white
dash of baking powder
dash of natvia (granules or liquid is fine)
water

"Method" (if you can call it that)
Combine all ingredients in a bowl or mug. Add enough water so that the mixture has a cake-batter-like consistency. 
Microwave for 30 secs, then 10 sec bursts until the pudding reaches your desired consistency. I left mine a bit undercooked, so it was like eating a self-saucing chocolate pudding. VOILA! I cannot describe how tasty it is!! 

Bon Appetit!

Early Morning Cardio

As you know, I am in the first week of my new program with my new trainer Evan Godbee :) 

Part of my program consists of 2 x interval cardio sessions per week. I like to do these fasted (on an empty stomach) before work. 

I drove down from Brisbane to Coolangatta yesterday before work to do my intervals, actually looking forward to the session. Left Brisbane in sunshine. Got to Coolangatta and arrived to rain :( I was pretty shirted off!! Had I just been going back home or something, I would have done it anyway - I like running in the rain. However, having to go straight to work after running in the rain is not really a good look :P 

So I told myself I would try again today! Before leaving home, I checked the "Rain?" app - nothing even remotely close - excellent. I breifly considered stopping in at the gym (I drive straight past it to get to the freeway) to do the workout, but the lure of the fresh air was too great. 

Arrived to perfect sunshine & smashed out my intervals. What an AWESOME start to my day!! Being outside running by the beach, in the fresh air - totally beats being on the treadmill in the gym! :)

I use "Easy Intervals" when interval training. It's a great little app, you can make your own workouts. So you put in your warm-up time, your cool-down time, how many intervals you want to do, what the 'work' time & the 'rest' time of each interval is, and Bob's your uncle. Good to go! 

Maybe you could incorporate some interval training into your routine to help assist weight loss. It doesn't have to be running. It can be cycling, swimming, rowing, or a whole bunch of tabata training style workouts if you like!! Just as long as your heart beat is going up & down, that's the main thing!

Happy Hunk Day

If this is what all firefighters A) looked like and B) rocked up to fires wearing, then I'm pretty sure I would set my kitchen on fire every. single. day.

Guilt Free Treats!! Say Whaaattt

I have discovered that the combination of 3 simple ingredients results in little delectable SUGAR FREE treats that keep the guilt away!! Kinda like little chocolates... I know!! Incredible right!!?? 

Here's a pic of one the tasty little morsels

(pic of heart treat)

How I made these little guys: 

2 Tbsp Raw WPI Protein Powder - I used strawberry flavour
2 Tbsp Almond Meal
2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Coconut Oil

Mix all ingredients together, put into freezer trays & freeze. Wait 30 mins (this is the hardest part!!) and then dig in to your sugar free snack size treats without feeling racked with guilt!! OMG :) They taste like little coconut roughs or something! You could also use other protein flavours, I have tried Chocolate, which is just as delicious!! 

Raw WPI is available from Muscle Coach and is an amazing new protein powder. It is 100% premium grade whey protein isolate in its purest, richest form with zero additives. 
Here's a link to the protein I used


Muscle Coach have 3 locations in Brisbane, but don't stress if you're not local - they ship Australia wide for a flat fee of $10, or if you spend over $150 then your shipping is Free! 

If you make these, let me know what you think! And if you were able to stop at just 1 :P

Motivation Monday & A New Chapter

Motivation Monday! :) 

I received my new program from my new trainer Evan, who runs the Evan Godbee Muscle Academy, and today is Day Number One!  I am very excited to be back into comp prep, albeit a type of pre-season if you like!

I will (hopefully) be posting some of the yummy foods I am allowed to eat along the way - no chicken/broccoli/rice for 6 meals a day here!! 

And because I'm starting a new chapter today, I thought today's Monday Motivation was quite appropriate


Stay Fabulous! xo
