One of the most common questions we get is what kind of protein powder we recommend…

Our answer always is to find a natural-based brand that avoids using artificial sweeteners or unnecessary chemicals.

Every so often, Liz and I come across a product we really love and of course we want to share it with you in the hopes that it helps make your healthy lifestyle easier and more convenient to maintain long term.

So if you’re wondering what to look for in your protein powder, and which brands we personally use watch the video below.

Now on to the good stuff… Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites

Growing up cookie dough was one of my all time favorite foods – I would often sneak into the fridge and eat the raw chocolate chip-filled dough, shoveling in spoonfuls at a time, without realizing how bad that was for my body and health.

Or, I would go to Dairy Queen and order the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Blizzards to get my cookie dough fix on…

Little did I know how much sugar was in one of those bad boys.

Now, I can still find healthy ways to incorporate this favorite childhood indulgence without the sugar overload and adverse health effects.

These healhty cookie dough bites are perfect for when cravings hit – I love to keep a batch in the fridge for something sweet after dinner.

Try it out this month if you’re craving a sweet treat!

“For the past 6 years I have avoided looking at pictures of myself on Facebook and hidden all the scrapbooks and pictures in my house because I was embarrassed. I can honestly say I learned to be confident and finally be proud of my body since joining this group. I don’t think I would have found that happiness for a long time without you all. Thank you so much for being my support over the past few months.” – Carli G.
