Then vs Now

December 14th 2012
Then vs Now Most people tend to reflect on the year when a new one is approaching. I could spend hours talking about how I’ve changed and improved. Last week I spoke on a call discussing some of the changes that have happened in the last 2 years because I said YES to becoming a Team Beachbody coach. I went from being the girl crying in the closet at my clothes to never crying in there again. I went from being the person calling the credit card company for available balance Continue Reading >

Happy 2 Year Anniversary

November 2nd 2012
Whoa! 2 years. What happens in 2 years? In November 2010 I became a Team Beachbody coach. I’m absolutely amazed at how much our lives have changed in 2 short years. I could ramble on and on about how awesome things are now. Many of you do not know my life before I was a coach in the public eye. I don’t want to get into too much detail but let’s just say that it wasn’t all that happy. We were getting by. We were like most families just trying to make it. It is difficult to admit but Continue Reading >

Are you a drama queen?

November 2nd 2012
Definition of a drama queen: An overly dramatic person. Someone who turns something unimportant into a major deal. Someone who blows things way out of proportion whenever the chance is given. Most drama queens will not admit they are addicted to drama. They do not even know they are the one in control of their own life. They usually deflect and blame other people and situations for their terrible life and terrible luck. Here is how to know if you are a drama queen: • Someone asks Continue Reading >

Insanity the Asylum volume 2

October 21st 2012
In 2011 I was introduced to Insanity The Asylum. Insanity with even more intensity. Imagine Insanity while jumping rope and keeping your feet in an agility ladder. Imagine challenging yourself to the max. Having workouts more than 1 hour and defining the term "dig deeper" with every workout. My body changed in just 5 days when doing Aslyum volume 1. If I had changed my diet to be cleaner I would have had even more amazing results. This time it is different. I've just finsihed the Beachbody Ultimate Continue Reading >

BLTs on Day 16 of the Ultimate Reset

October 9th 2012
BLT’s When I say BLT what do you think about? Probably bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich right? When I say BLT I mean Bites, licks and tastes. BLT’s can be the downfall of your nutrition and stop you from hitting your goal. The Ultimate Reset makes you aware just how much you spend calories on BLT’s. I’m a BLT offender when I’m: • Making my son his breakfast, lunch or dinner. If there is something on the side I would pop it in my mouth. Cut the crusts off his sandwich, I’ll Continue Reading >

Team Beachbody launching in Canada

September 29th 2012

We know how successful this can be and it is only getting better. We are helping more people get healthy and fit. Even if you've never considered Continue Reading >

Beachbody Ultimate Reset Day 5

September 28th 2012
Winding down day 5 and we are rocking it. I’m down 9 pounds and Mark is down 7. It is not just about the weight loss. It is about so much more. I’ve spent so many years going up and down. In the last 2 years of becoming a coach the yo-yo doesn’t go up and down as much. It is a few pounds here and there but never a big chunk either way. Except for this year. We rocked the Ultimate Reset in May. I lost 13 pounds and Mark lost 16. Then we traveled and used that as an excuse to not stay on track. Continue Reading >

Beachbody Ultimate Reset Day 1 complete

September 25th 2012
We survived day 1. It's not that dramatic. The first time we did the reset it felt like we survived. This time it felt like we were just living. We were comfortable with the supplements and the recipes. We didn't have to check the book for everything. We already know which meals or ingredients we like and don't like. We know that nutrition is the key. We kind of fell off of the wagon and let it roll over us for a good month. Only one day on the reset and we both feel better. Continue Reading >

Beachbody 21 day Ultimate Reset – Preparation for Day 1

September 23rd 2012
This is our second time to do the Reset. We are so much smarter this time around. Our first time was May 2012 and this is our second time beginning September 24. The book recommends beginning on a Wednesday so you can spend some of the most "difficult" days at home. Last time we started on a Monday and I didn't find it all that difficult. It is up to you. I liked the Monday is day 1 and Sunday is day 7. Seemed easier to monitor. What we changed from the first Reset to day 1 of this Reset: -Drinking Continue Reading >
