My husband and I love these banana oat pancakes! We’re all out here trying to be healthy BUT… when you take the pancake mix out of pancakes, the results can get a bit questionable. But these are delicious and guilt-free!
MaShelle, how can I lose weight fast?? I get this question all the time from my clients and even people on the street. There’s no magic pill for weight loss, but there is a simple science: calories in vs. calories out. It’s called the calorie deficit.
| Calculate your daily metabolic rate |

How the Calorie Deficit Works
Losing weight essentially boils down to how many calories you take in vs. how many calories you burn with daily activities and exercise.
There are 3,500 calories in a pound. To lose 1 pound a week, you need a deficit of 500 calories per day, by either eating 500 fewer calories or burning 500 calories through exercise. But first you need to calculate how many calories your body needs a day to maintain your current weight. Your 500 daily calorie deficit is based on that number.

We think we’ll remember from one day to the next what we ate. And we generally do for major meals. But food journaling is the only precise way to track your calorie intake.
A cookie here and a piece of candy there gets lost in the shuffle. Those empty calories add up quickly and can prevent you from reaching your weight loss goals. I’m most successful with weight loss when I use a food journal to track my calorie and macronutrient intake.

WHITE or BLUE? HELP ME DECIDE! 🤍💙
Bougie taste, budget options. I got y’all! 🖤🤍
I’m wearing one of my FAVORITE Spanx AirEssentials sets—but girls, I found a similar black-and-white matching set on Amazon! Full-zip jacket, wide-leg pants, and that sporty, polished vibe. 🙌🏾
For the Amazon option, I’d recommend sizing up for a more relaxed fit based on the gray version I tried. The drape and pants length differ from my Spanx.
🛍️ Shop the budget-friendly Amazon option here https://amzn.to/4zvgOTQ
🛍️ Comment SHOP and I’ll send you both sets!
Style it. Own it. SLAY it. 💋

Lissen, Atlanta finally got the memo—it’s BOOT season! 🙌🏾🤎 But I need y’all to help me decide. White or Blue??
I’m wearing this chocolate brown bodysuit to run errands and can’t decide between the white puffer vest with white knee-high boots, or the long light blue puffer vest with blue over-the-knee boots. Both bring a little drama to an elevated casual fall outfit!
Girls, help me decide:
1️⃣ White 🤍 or
2️⃣ Blue 💙?

The closet piece you’d buy all over again.
Free People, we need to talk… BRING HER BACK! 😂🙌🏾
This Daria denim maxi skirt is hands down one of my best Free People pieces.
I wore this look to introduce my “How to Style a Cardigan Five Ways” YouTube video, and she deserved her own moment. 🤎

Girl, the drape. The weight of the fabric. The way they elevate a look! These jeans feel WAY more expensive than they are. Add gold accessories, and now we’re going places. 💅🏾

Chocolate brown and blue. 🤎🩵
It’s soft, sophisticated, and gives Rich Auntie without even trying.
Now tell me, girls…which look are we wearing? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6? 👀

GIRLLLLL! 🐆😍
You already know how I feel about leopard print. It’s a NEUTRAL in my closet! 😂
But can we talk about the versatility of this cardigan?!
I took ONE statement piece and styled it THREE completely different ways. Sneakers for running around, leopard heels when I’m feeling extra, and tall boots when I want that effortless Rich Auntie energy!
And THAT is why I always tell my girls to make their clothes earn their place in the closet!
Now I need to know…Which look would YOU wear? Sneakers, heels, or boots?
