Hear I am 8 weeks in and I couldn't be happier :) It has been a great week for me! I have advanced in rank with Beachbody so now I can start helping others and I am so excited! I also FINALLY am in one-derland!!!! 199 was on the scale yesterday morning *happy dance inserted here* :D My smaller clothes are starting to fit, my house is clean, my children are happy and My relationship with my husband is stronger then ever. Can you just visualize the birds singing in the background and us running through a flower filled meadow? Bliss. That is the best word I can use to describe my world right now. There are still all the little things that happen but they don't derail me like they use too. Before any little bump in the road would derail me and send me right back to my bad habits. I am so excited that I have overcome those obstacles.

I have lost 14 pounds and 10 inches since starting my workouts with Beachbody! I am just amazed with the differences I am seeing in myself and the people around me. My Friend LaDawn and I are training to walk a Marathon in March, we are getting fit together. My husband is eating better and exercising and I even bought some workout DVDs for my kids. They wanted to exercise like mommy but couldn't keep up with my DVDs.
The kids working out to "Tony and the Kids" for the first time.
I am really looking forward to my new life. I am changed forever and I am never looking back!
What is your dream? If you are like me, your dreams change. When
I was eight my dream was to be a mermaid. I lived and breathed Disney’s “the
little mermaid”. I spent my summers at the local public pool. I wore out the cassette recording of the
soundtrack three times and watched the movie endlessly. Fast forward to high school and my dream was
just to graduate and move out of my parent’s house. By the time I was 24; I was
pregnant with my son and married to a wonderful Man. My dream at that point was
to figure out how to juggle all the parts of my life. I was working as a hair
stylist, had a small child and a new marriage. It was a rough transition going
from single and dating to married and children. We have now been married almost
6 years, have two children and life is much smoother. Our relationship is solid
in spite of some difficulties we have faced.We have been tested and have come out the other side stronger. I thank
God every day for my husband.
My dream now is to be a financial equal to my husband. I am
not discounting my role as a stay at home mom. I love my children and my time
with them. I would not trade it for anything. I also know that with two incomes there would
be so much more we could do. Dave could be a full time book illustrator (his dream) also working
from home. We could buy a house, take vacations, and not live paycheck to
paycheck. We have big dreams and with two incomes anything is possible.
I am so excited that
Beachbody has given me this opportunity. Just think of Beachbody as “Avon” but
for fitness products. As a coach I get to help others who are on their road to
fitness too. I get to share what I am
learning and earn money all from the comfort of my home. I get to be a “stay at
home mom” and make a living. I have found something I am passionate about and
excited to “go to work” in my home every day.
What is your dream? What are you passionate about? Have you
put an effort into making those things happen or are you still dreaming? Anything
is possible with work and dedication. Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t
do something. Fight for your dream and make it happen!
Challenge
groups are a fun and easy way to get the support you need to accomplish
those healthy living and fitness goals you want to accomplish. The
Coaching you receive from me is totally free. I am there to encourage
you and help you on your journey. I am there to answer any questions you
may have. I may not always have the answer but I can surely track one
down for you. I would not be as far on my path or accomplishing my goals
without my challenge group. I have made lifelong friends and I am
forever changed for the better.
Research has shown that the people most successful in obtaining their health and fitness goals do these three things:
1.Work out at home
2.Have an accountability group or partner
3.Eat breakfast
I can help you take care of #1 and #3.
The MAIN purpose of the challenge group is to provide you with #2.
My commitment to you:
1. I will make myself available to you.
Virtually anytime you need a little help, a push or a question answered.
2.I will interact with you daily on Facebook to help keep you going on your journey,answering questions, giving encouragement, or giving you a kick in the pants if needed.
If I don't see you check in on FB on any given day, I will text you to see what's up. :)
3.Once a week I will be in contact with you to see how you are doing and what issues you may be having.

This is a short video with our CEO Carl Daikeler talking
about the Challenge and the prizes that are available to participants
(US legal residents only 18+)
Here's how our Challenge group will work...
1) You are encouraged to choose a Beachbody program for your workout. If
you need help determining which one is best suited for you, I would
love to help you figure that out. If you already have one that has been
gathering dust on your bookshelf, we can start with that one.
2) You are encouraged to order and drink your shakeology at least once a day. Trust
me when I say this; it is an imperative part of this process. It will
provide your body with the fuel that it will need to get through these
workouts. You will just replace one meal a day (preferably breakfast,
see #3 above) with a shake. It helped reduce my cravings and keeps me
satisfied... no more 2:00 slump in the afternoon, and it comes with a
bottom of the bag guarantee!
3) You are encouraged to be a Team Beachbody club member (this is FREE for the first month!)The
people in our group will likely be starting at different places and/or
require different nutritional guidelines. The Team Beachbody Club will
provide each of you the opportunity to customize your own meal plan,
print out a grocery list, and take it to the grocery store. The club
nutrition guide and Shakeology will truly simplify your nutrition. The
best way to do that is to create a Team Beachbody account with me as
your coach
4) You are encouraged to participate daily in our private Facebook group. Sharing
with the group how your workout was for the day, how your nutrition is,
and just how you are feeling. I will be on the page as well to help
encourage, motivate and answer questions you might have.
5) You must take your before photos, measurement and weight. You do not have to share them with the group. We
will take these stats every 30/60/90 days; I will continue to support
you throughout your fitness/weight loss journey. This is an integral
part of the process. As you go along, sometimes you have to be reminded
how far you've come to keep going forward. I have some amazing before
and after photos. They encourage me daily to keep making healthy
choices. I am never going back to my unhealthy 230 pound self.
Beachbody is offering "Challenge Packs" at a nicely discounted rate. They include the fitness program of your choice, Shakeology and a Club Membership!!! Plus, you will also get FREE SHIPPING, so you save anywhere from $26-$79depending on the fitness program you choose. Let me know if you have questions.
I
am excited about the goals that we can reach together. Being a
Beachbody Coach to me = helping others live healthy, fulfilling lives.
Just like my Coach has helped me. To me, that's the most INCREDIBLY
fulfilling experience, and I hope you will allow me to come on this
journey with you!
If you know someone that you’d like to include in the Challenge, please let me know. Let’s End the Trend together!
