Hi Friends! I've been asked a few times what gadgets/kitchen essentials I use to help work towards my health and fitness goals.

1. The original Zoodle Slicer: I LOVE this thing! It gets used more than most of my kitchen gadgets. I love to make zucchini noodles out of these. It's a great low calorie substitute for regular pasta. You can make spirals out of all sorts of veggies (sweet potatoes, carrots, etc.)

2. My Fitbit!: If you are like me and love stats, then this is right up your alley! It tracks your steps, calories burned, sleeping pattern... You can track your food intake, work outs and water intake on the app that automatically syncs with this little band that is on your wrist. I only have to charge it once a week too! Also, it syncs to MyFitnesspal.com app which is where I track my calorie intake and work outs. So I don't have to enter in the info twice.

3. Immersion blender: This is the one I have and I use it multiple times a day. I use it to make my bullet proof coffee (recipe coming soon), mix my Shakeology, and I use it when cooking often.

4. My Shakeology Shaker cup: This is great for when I'm working in the office, or out running around and don't have my immersion blender with me. My Hubby also uses this to drink his Shakeology on his way to work in the morning.
5. Bowflex weights: I've had these bad boys for almost 7 years now and they still work just like they did when I first bought them! If you don't have space in your house like me for a big rack of weights, these weights are great to have! The weights range from 5-50 pounds each and they go up in 2.5 increments. Totally recommend these!

6. 21 Day Fix Portion Control Containers!: These were a game changer for me. For months I was tracking my calories EVERDAY and not losing weight. I was frustrated and didn't know why this wasn't working for me. When I started 21 Day Fix and used these containers to measure my food intake for each meal... that's when everything changed. I lost 11 pounds my first round. I still use these cups everyday to help me make sure I'm eating the proper portion of each food group.
A few other items I recommend having that I don't have a necessary "brand" to share with you...
7. Kitchen Knives: Having a few good knives is a plus! Makes chopping and meal prep so much easier
8. Cutting Board: I have to separate ones I use. One for veggies/fruit, and one for meats.
9. Workout/Yoga Mat: I use just a basic one that I got from Target. I keep it rolled up in my hall closet so I have easy access for my work outs that call for one. I use it a lot when doing Piyo and again on Pilates Fix and Yoga Fix on 21 Day Fix.
10. Workout Shoes: This is so very important. Make sure you have a good pair of tennis shoes to do your workouts.
I hope this was helpful for you! If you have any questions or would like to join Team Life Light Up you can comment here or send me an email at coachjennym@gmail.com
