I also noticed that as well. I connect my phone to an HDMI so that I have it on a bigger screen and the music totally drowned Nicole out. I turned the volume down on the TV and increased volume on my phone and vice versa, also unplugged from the HDMI cord and just tried from my phone, same thing throughout the video. I played the video at work on my headphones, music came out of one ear piece and Nicole’s voice came out of the other. I also played the video for my friend who is music and technologically savvy, who says it’s really a technical issue on Nicole’s side, which I have no idea about that type of technology. I’m barely able to muddle through to get my email, texts or otherwise. lol
I use Rao’s marinara It has 7g fat with 6g carbs per 1/2 cup (125g). They also have a tomato basil that has 5g fat and 6g carbs per 1/2 cup.
I see it says that on all the Meal Plans, men and women’s, except Women’s Meal Plan 1. It looks to me like it might be in error and should be listed as an FP, as it always has in the past.
In the Live Q&A for the Level Up Challenge, Nicole mentioned the way she would do it is do the 4 workouts and then start with the 5th workout the next week and then just keep going, so on and so on. So basically you are getting all the workouts done, you’ll just land differently than the rest at the end of the challenge. Hopefully that makes sense.
I used to be able to do push-ups no problem and then the last few years it takes everything out of me to do 10 regular for just one set, the next 2 sets I can maybe get 4-5 and then go to knees. Most of the time it’s 2-3 on the last set but I keep trying. I lift heavy for bench press, chest incline, etc. Why such the discrepancy?
When I used my blender the consistency was thinner than when I used my food processor. My food processor is a small one so I can only do a single serving, which is a real pain in the rear; hence why I used the blender for larger servings.
Some people like having the face to face chats with others. Makes it more personable. Friendships are made and sometimes that support is what people need at that time. It’s a personal preference and something that was mentioned during the zoom meeting the other day.
Okay ladies I think I got it figured out. Copy the link below and that should take you to the group page.
This is for support and accountability to each other and is not related to Nicole in any way. I would like to just keep it open to those in the challenge whether VIP or not. Once the challenge is over then we can open it up. I want to be respectful of Nicole and her business.
I think it should be open to anyone, if they want the support and accountability. It will just be participants in the challenge. This group could continue on past the challenge as well. Support and accountability are never ending, and could help in the long run.
I love this meal! I use oatmeal instead of the oat bran. I also half the onion and pepper to 25g of each and add 25g mushrooms and 25g zucchini. I’m not planning on using the oil as my fat, instead I will swap out for 2 whole eggs and use just 6 egg whites.
I cook the oatmeal according to box instructions. Sauté the veggies with 0 calorie avocado oil spray and once they are tender, I add the cooked oatmeal and mix. Then I scramble the egg whites and cook the 2 eggs over easy. Mix it all together or however you like. It’s one of my favorite dishes for breakfast.
First I thought ewww gross but it’s actually really good!
You can always adjust to make it fit your macros, if you want. What I did was made the recipe as directed and then I subbed the 1/2 F 13g pumpkin seeds and 1/2 FR 14g honey for 15g chia seeds and 50g blueberries and just added that to the oatmeal and let it set overnight.
If you don’t like the oatmeal the other thing I did is make an oatmeal pancake with a swipe of peanut butter.
230g egg whites
55g old fashioned oats
15g fresh ground peanut butter
Cal 416 Carbs 39.6 Fat 11.6 Pro 36Mix the egg and oatmeal together with a dash of cinnamon, pour it in a pan like a pancake. Once set flip and let the other side cook. I cut it into 4 pieces, spread some peanut butter and make it like a quesadilla. Eat it on my way to work. Something I picked up from Nicole as one of her on-the-go meals.
I cooked 2 lbs of chicken breast, so that my husband could have some as well although he is not doing the challenge. I cooked it in the crockpot with taco seasoning and salsa with some water (Nicole has a video on here somewhere for this recipe, I believe), shredded it all up, then took out 3 ounces per for each tortilla. wrapped each one individually and tossed them in the fridge for my lunch every day this week. I had it for dinner the night I made them and thought they were delish!!
