My Personal Story of getting to a better place both physically & mentally...
As many of you may already know I have been unhappy with my weight since having my daughter four years ago. I lost the weight pretty quickly after having my son and was convinced the same would happen after having my daughter. Well needless to say, I was wrong! I gained 80 pounds during my pregnancy, half of which I have struggled to loose the last four years. I actually gained additional weight over this winter. I say struggled to lose, but the truth is that I had not tried very hard to loose the weight. I allowed my depression and lack of motivation to hold me back. I felt bad for myself and remained uncomfortable month after month...hell year after year. Everyday I would promise myself that i would do more tomorrow. I had no motivation. I wanted to make the changes, but had no energy to do so. Not only did this make me feel horrible about myself but it truly affected my mood and day to day activities.
I finally had enough and decided to do something about it. I started by drinking Shakology for breakfast each morning. I was very skeptical at first because i have tried several different shakes in the past that did not seem to do much for me. I joined a week long challenge trial of Shakology. I was immediately impressed by the flavor, however, still extremely skeptical of wither or not it would work for me. The first few days I did not feel much of a difference, and like usual was ready to just give up on it. Given i was in a challenge with other people I decided just to stick it out the remainder of the week. Well to my surprise as the week came to an end i found myself with energy i have not felt in years! My body was finally getting the nutrients that it needs. Obviously the vitamin and supplement cocktails i had convinced myself would help were not helping at all. Shakeology was actually working for me. I did not see any immediate weight loss, but it did give me the motivation i needed to start working out more. It made me feel less bloated. It is something i would recommend to everyone wither you are looking to increase your energy, curb junk food cravings, lose weight, improve digestion and regularity, or a combination of all of these things.
After finding some much needed motivation adding Shakology to my daily diet I purchased a Fitbit (which i would highly recommend to everyone). I was literally addicted from day one. The Fitbit not only holds me accountable for the amount of exercise I achieve each day, but also for my water consumption, and calorie intake. Everyday I wake up excited to put my Fitbit on and get started accomplishing my daily goals. When those goals get too easy I am able to increase my goals. Again this is coming from somone who has ALWAYS HATED working out (with the exception of walking, which I never made time for). Not only do i compete with my own goals, but the Fitbit allows you to compete with your friends. For the first time in my life I have motivation and am enjoying exercising. I had always thought "those people" who enjoy working out were crazy. I could not for the life of me understand how they found it to be entertaining by any means. I got exhausted just trying to get the motivation to work out. I wished that I enjoyed working out, but continued to hate it. I am finally one of "those people" who enjoy working out!!!
I have for the first time in four years broken the weight that i have been stuck at. I still have a long way to go before I will be satisfied with my body again, but for the first time in four years I KNOW that i will get there. I wake up every day excited to drink my shake and get started on my Fitbit steps. I drink more water than i have ever before and eat less. I am not on a diet. I eat what i want but use portion control to do so. I find myself choosing healthier choices because i want to not because i feel like i need to, and i still enjoy unhealthy foods at times. I am happier than i have been in such a long time. As i reach my health and weight goals i find myself mentally in such a better place. I did not realize how depressed I really was until I started feeling happy again!
I just joined beach body as a coach. I have ordered my 21 day fix and am waiting for it to come in the mail. I cannot wait to try the program and will update my results once i am finished. If you are interested you can click the links bellow for more information. There are constantly deals to save you money and bundle things together. Contact me with any questions you may have. I also recommend buying a Fitbit to help motivate you and make exercising fun. They are sold at several stores (Walmart, Target, Kohls, etc...).

Shakeology
I started out completing a 1 week Shakology challenge. From the start I had no intention of ever purchasing the shakes let alone becoming a BeachBody coach. I have tried several shakes in the past, none of which seemed to do anything for me other than make me broke. The first few days of drinking Shakology I did not see much of a difference, however, by mid week I noticed a huge increase in energy. This alone was a miracle for me. As any mom knows having kids can be exhausting. We need to keep up with the kids all day and clean at night while they are sleeping. Often leaving us exhausted. Shakology takes only minutes to prepare each morning and gives your body the nutrients and energy it needs. Contact me if you would like more information :)

The 21 Day Fix is great program for the beginning and intermediate fitness levels, those wanting to shed at least 10 pounds or anyone simply looking for a good kick-start to a healthy lifestyle. 21 Day Fix Extreme is for intermediate to advanced challengers who have a baseline of fitness established. If you follow the program, you will see results.
The 3 Day Refresh

And your clothes will fit better. The Complete Kit comes with 3 packets of Shakeology®—your choice of 6 flavors (we recommend Chocolate Vegan or Tropical Strawberry Vegan because plant-based proteins are often easier for the body to digest), 6 packets of Vanilla Fresh (high-protein shake), 3 packets of Fiber Sweep (digestive health drink), and 1 Program Guide.
BeachBody Challange Groups
There are a variety of challenge groups programs and challenge groups designed to fit your fitness goals and needs. Not sure what a challenge group is and how it works? I’ll explain.
What is a Challenge Group? A challenge group is an online group of people who support one another. You get the support and motivation of a trainer without the cost.
How Does a Challenge Group Work? My challenge groups take place in a private Facebook group. Participants introduce themselves and only share information/pictures they are comfortable sharing. Participants support and motivate one another. The group is private so that no one else can see the group posts.
How Much Does a Challenge Group Cost? There is no cost to participate in my challenge group. However, you will need to purchase a Challenge Pack to have everything you need at home for the challenge as well as assign me as your coach. A Challenge Pack includes your workout DVDs, Menu Plans, and a month of Shakeology. The cost of a Challenge Pack varies by program.
