Thanks to GNC for sponsoring today’s story and encouraging me to try GNC PUREDGE!
Tis’ the time of year where every where you look there are treats upon treats. Hello cookies and candy at work, baked goods at parties, wine/cocktails and I could go on and on. While I am a firm believer in the 80/20 rule I know that if I have a great breakfast that gets my day started out on a healthy note. And in order to do that I drink a lot of smoothies, it’s my breakfast most of my days post workout. I’ve gotten the smoothie making process down to a science.

I am loving the chocolate! Scott was a huge fan of the protein bars and the Complete Amino has been amazing for post yoga sculpt, Insanity Max and Crossfit. I’ve been pushing my body hard and can really tell that I’ve been getting enough protein and BCAA’s and amino acids.
