Say no to plateaus

March 12th 2013
Weight Loss Plateaus occur when you no longer lose weight despite your exercise and nutrition efforts. To officially be in a plateau you must be at the same weight for at least 6 weeks or more. If you find your weight fluctuates after the weekend or after certain types of foods (salty, high carbs) then the plateau may be easier to push through than you think. You usually lose more weight in the first few weeks/months of your weight loss efforts because of the change in your nutrition and exercise. Continue Reading >

What is stopping you from saying YES?

January 19th 2013
What is stopping you from saying YES? Who would say NO to better health? Who would say NO to a better body? Who would say NO to more income? Who would say NO to a better, more inspired life? No one does it on purpose yet I hear NO all the time. So many times I’ve had conversations with people who want a better life, want more money, want change, want a better relationship, a better job or better health. We have a great conversation and determine their WHY. What is a why? A why Continue Reading >

Awesome Level Rising – Post Surgery

January 15th 2013
Surgery was Friday January 5th. The first several days were pretty boring. I couldn’t really sleep and had to sit up at a 45 degree angle and keep ice on my eyes at all times. You never really realize just how much you depend on your eyes when you can’t use them. Simple things like helping my son get ready for school or reading him a book at bedtime were over for a while. Day 1: We went into the Surgery Center in Fort Worth and they treated me like gold. My nurse Laura was amazing. She was Continue Reading >

Surgery coming soon

December 28th 2012
More than 10 days without Shakeology and other vitamins and I’m feeling it. My energy level is down. My desire to get up and work out is down. TMI but my pooping is not as great as it used to be. It takes longer and it kind of hurts. With Shakeology it was a breeze. My stomach hurts often now and after every meal. I miss being able to grab a shake for breakfast. I miss grabbing a shake for a quick snack. I miss it big time. I’ve also noticed that my cravings for sweets is up. The Continue Reading >

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 >

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 >

The Value of a Success Partner

September 12th 2012
Just days away from my 41st birthday and I’m reflecting. I spent most of my life without an accountability partner. Now I have a success partner and a personal life coach. I talk to my success partner Rhonda every week. We have a set call every Friday to talk for 30 minutes. I look forward to it every week. I also talk to my coach Mandy every Thursday to set new goals for the week and evaluate how my previous week went. You cannot do your own brain surgery. You cannot coach yourself. It is in Continue Reading >
