April Fun & Quest Bar Giveaway!

SO fitfam I have a few fun things this new April Month!
Firstttt, A PHOTO A DAY CHALLENGE!

Move Nourish Believe Month
 I am teaming up with @laura_rixon from Instagram and ten other amazing girls and guys to present to you 30 days of either Move, Nourish or Believe inspiration! 
To play along just repost this pic and join our #mnbmonth quest to make our health and fitness journeys more holistic! 
I can sympathize that a lot of these photo-a-day type challenges can often be a hassle to commit to for a whole month. But I encourage you to start with us on Monday and work through the months goals in your own time and space. Post a photo every day, every so often or just once. Lets make living about more than just fitness, clean eating and selflove, lets make life about the complete package, about the complete Move Nourish Believe philosophy!
To share your progress, journey and photos with us and the #movenourishbelieve community tag your photos at #mnbmonth


-----------------------------------------
Next I'm having an awesome  
QUEST BAR GIVEAWAY! 
  If you don't know about my love for quest bars, check out my past reviews HERE and HERE.

THEY ARE MY ALL TIME FAVORITE PROTEIN BARS AND I SWEAR BY THEM.

Low carb because of the high fiber, and high protein, and clean ingredients?!?! WHATTTTTT.
Yeah that's right.

And I'm giving TWO people a chance to win a SAMPLE BOX from Quest Protein Bars! This includes one of each of their normal flavors that they offer!   

Here are the ways to enter:
1) Comment on THIS POST about your favorite flavor of protein bars!
2) REPOST the picture that I post on April 1st on my instagram about the Quest Giveaway and tag #vmquest
3) Upload a picture to YOUR instagram of your favorite clean eating recipe but it MUST HAVE ON THE PHOTO the tags #vmquest and @vmfitness!!! And then tag me in the caption! <3 <3 
4) For everyone who buys my EBOOK, that'll be an entry also! 
-----------------------------------------

And Lastly I'm doing another 


NO CHEAT FOR 2 WEEKS CHALLENGE 

 I had done one of these before and saw some slight progress, and a lot of you joined in on the fun as well! So if you want to join me, DO IT! It's just a fun little thing that'll strengthen that will power! 
I challenge you to NO CHEATS from

April 1 - 15!

That means no junk foods, candies, sodas, etc!
But you CAN eat filling healthy foods like lean proteins, filling veggies, sweet delicious fruits, yummy complex carbs, ALL THAT GOOD STUFF! <3 
Let's get that summer bod underway!
It's better to start NOW getting into shape and eating right and working out than to crash diet like the few weeks before a vacation! So start now, use this challenge as a kick start to your healthy lifestyle journey!

So if you're with me, just tag your progress #vmfitness and #vmfityear so I can see what yummy things you're eating in the kitchen, what workouts you're doing, and how fit you're getting!
<3 <3  

Think that's all I have up my sleeve for now this new month!

I hope you're all having a gorgeous and spectacular EASTER!
<3

  16. THIS IS TORRE JOHANSEN ----> STRONG_AND_SASSY
    I HAVE BEEN WORKING OUT HARDCORE SINCE I WAS IN THE 7TH GRADE, BASICALLY THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS EVER REALLY WORKING OUT.. I STRUGGLED WITH A LOT OF MY WEIGHT ISSUES THROUGHOUT MY LIFE AND IM FINALLY FINDING A HEALTHY BALANCE AND I HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY CHANGING MY LIFESTYLE, I HAVE NOW BEEN TRYING TO LEAD A HEALTHY LIFE STYLE. I NEVER REALIZED UNTIL JUST A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO IT IS ALL ABOUT WHAT YOU EAT.. WITH THE THINGS I HAVE DEALT WITH IN MY PAST I DIDNT EAT OFTEN, I THOUGHT THE ONLY WAY TO LOSE WEIGHT WAS TO CUT BACK ON EATING BUT WHAT I DIDNT REALIZE WAS IT WAS ALL ABOUT THE EATING! IM A COLLEGE STUDENT WHICH MEANS I'M BROKE AS A JOKE AND QUESTBARS ARE LIKE A TREAT FOR ME!! MY CAMPUS DOESNT HAVE THEM AND IM 5 HOURS FROM HOME AND I DONT HAVE A CAR HERE WITH ME SO RARELY DO I GET TO EAT QUEST BARS (ONLY WHEN IM HOME) AND I WOULD LOVE TO WIN THESE!!!!! IT WOULD BE AWESOME!!
    MY FAVORITE FLAVOR IS STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE OR CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER, THEY'RE ALL SO GOOD!
    YOU'RE SUCH AN INSPIRATION!! KEEP IT UP GIRL.

  17. Thanks for the awesome giveaway - I would LOOOOVE to win Quest bars, Quest chocolate chip cookie dough bars (or their Quest Cravings peanut butter cups) are probably my favorite protein bars EVER. I'm also a college kid and so the price tag is a bit hefty, but they're a real treat! livinglearningeating AT gmail DOT com

  18. Broke clean eater and gym rat away at college needs Quest Bars! Strawberry cheesecake is my favorite flavor and I feel it's so underrated! Second would be the chocolate peanut butter because well, if I could marry peanut butter, I would

    ReplyDelete
  19. I haven't had a chance to try that many because they're a little pricey, but the PEANUT BUTTER and jelly sandwich has stolen my heart!! I'm a bit biased, considering I'm a peanut butter gal!

  30. OMG! I hear so many good things about QuestBars from following people's IG, blogs and reading about it in a magazine. I had a few let downs from purchasing different protein bars that I stopped buying any all together. It would be awesome to try these. If I had any chance to try a flavor it would be coconut cashew!
