I originally started coaching with Beachbody as a way to save money on Shakeology. It was my personal miracle drink because for me it turned off my cravings for sweets and treats and I have never been able to control my cravings before then. I had to have it! But the day I realized how I could help others, and really started working to help myself and others, changed my life and added a new passion in my life. When I received these rank advancements in the mail proving that I was actually helping people with their health and fitness and helping them help other people too! yep. I was hooked! This has become more than just my journey. It is about helping others and helping them help others. It's time to keep growing and with Beachbody now available in the UK along with the US and Canada I am excited for what the future brings for those I can help motivate and inspire and who you can too! Can you think of someone who could use your motivation or support? Curious about what I do as a coach? Do you wonder how I make it work and still work on me as a busy mom of 3? Curious about how you can help your friends and family and future friends? Msg me or comment below with your country's emoji flag and I will reach out to you! 🇺🇸
When your workout doesn't go as planned and you end up using your baby as weights. Being a mom is hard. All the demands of kids needing you all the time. But don't forget to take care of you. Even if that means exercising in front of them or with them. You matter. Your health matters. You have to take care of yourself before you can truly give of yourself to your kids. All you need to do is find 30 minutes on our day to get your workout in. Not sure what to do in those 30 minutes? Msg me and let's chat. I've got tons of workouts that are 30 minutes or less!
Diets that cut food groups and calories don't work! I spent years doing this. Thinking "if I just cut my carbs I would lose weight." "I can lose weight if I just stick to eating 1200 calories". But every single time after a few days or weeks I would binge eat on whatever I was denying myself. It wasn't until I realized that hey my body needs to eat. It needs real foods. But it needs it in the right portion sizes and it needs Whole Foods and not fast food, processed crap or other foods that have no nutritional value. Wouldn't you want to eat the foods like in my picture and still be able to lose weight? I'm feeling super satisfied after my breakfast today. 2 Eggs, 1.5 cup chopped veggies, 1/2 cup oatmeal with 1 tbsp ground flaxseed and 1/2 cup strawberries. And it looks like a ton of food but those are the right portions for me! And I learned what to eat and how much to eat thanks to the programs I use with my online streaming services. No more guess work! It's all broken down for me! Ready to feed your body and lose weight?

I've been so hesitant to post this but, I have to share my whole story. That is where real change happens, right?!? I made it a goal to document my postpartum journey this past year. And I was determined to reach my goal I set for 1 year postpartum. I AM NO WHERE NEAR WHERE I WANTED TO BE AT THIS POINT! My goal was to be down at least to my pre-pregnancy weight (which was about 26 pounds) or more! And honestly, it is a little frustrating until I looked at the whole picture. And once I figured that out it has also given me a bigger drive to keep going and keep trying and dang it to stop making excuses. Yes, I had emergency appendectomy surgery in August and had massive bloating for weeks, but I also wasn't totally on point with my eating during that time. But this picture is more than just 6 weeks. It is the whole year, and if you look though. I HAVE MADE SUCH A HUGE CHANGE IN MY LIFE! I have confidence. My body shape has changed. I feel better both inside and out. I'm stronger, SO MUCH STRONGER! And this is just part of my journey. HUGE things are happening for me in the next 6 months. I can feel it. Right now, I'm on day 11 of my Learning To Be Obsessed With Taking Care Of My Health challenge today, and I finally have completely kicked my need and desire for sweets and treats. I didn't HAVE to have any sugar yesterday which is AMAZING! I am eating more veggies, I am staying true to what I am planning out to eat for the week and I am exercising daily (for the past 12 days actually!) Honestly I am feeling amazing! Losing weight is a process. It takes time. But...it is way more than just losing weight. This is about getting my life back and finally getting my outside to reflect how I see myself and feel on the inside. And I am on my way! No more excuses. No more giving in. And no more guilt when I do have a treat or sweet, ON MY TERMS and not because a "craving" told me to do it! Are you ready to join me and learn to be obsessed with your health and fitness??? Next phase of this challenge begins on the 23rd, but you don't have to wait until then to join me! Change can start TODAY! MSG me and let's chat. I am here to help you and we can do this together!
I'm not a coffee drinker (yep, you read that right!) and never really understood the power of mugs until I started using them for my morning cleansing lemon and apple cider vinegar drink or in the case of this GIANT mug, my daily sweets and treats craving crusher shake! Just picked up this beauty the other day @walmart . My newest mug is a total mindset changer. Gets that sassy feeling in my head to get my stuff done without letting anything get in my way! Yep. I'm hooked! What's does your your fave mug say or look like?
When your legs are sore even before the workout is over you know you are doing some amazing sculpting. Leg day, if it doesn't challenge you lift more and drop lower in those squats.
