From my teenage years, I have always been into exercise programs. My favorite fitness "guru" was Richard Simmons. His programs were fun, and fairly simple. And they worked. So it really didn't surprise me when I fell in love with the Beachbody programs. The first one I ever did was Insanity. It was, like the title says, INSANE. I did it for three months and lost 12 lbs! I was hooked. After I had my third and last baby, I decided I would try T25. LOVE that program. I can't tell you how only working out 25 min a day felt. It is an intense 25 minutes, but the feeling you get afterward is like you have been at the gym for an hour. By the end, I was sweaty, out of breath, and my legs felt like jello. But it was a GREAT feeling. Then, I was introduced to the Team Beachbody Coaching Opportunity. I became a coach, and started drinking a dense, daily, dose of nutrition in the form of Shakeology®. I love that I can healthily replace a meal, take it with me on the go, or drink it before/after my workout and in between meals. But the best thing about it for me is that it took away my cravings for cake, pie, candy, cookies, anything sweet!!! I am healthier because of it, and I know that when I drink it, I am getting all of the nutrition I need, as well as much needed energy for chasing my three little ones around! When I signed up as a coach, I decided to try the newest Team Beachbody program, the 21 Day Fix. I was drawn to the idea of a three week program that mainly focused on portion control. Clean eating is not my strong point, but after doing the Fix, it is quickly becoming a lifestyle. And the workouts are only 30 minutes. As a busy wife and mother, I have no time to devote 1 or 2 hours working out. The best part is, in only 21 days, I lost 3 lbs (which doesn't sound like a lot, but when you plateau for 3 months and then are finally able to lose those last few lbs those lbs become a celebration!) and I lost a total of 7 inches. Think about it, in less than a month I lost that. And I didn't starve. I will keep the weight and the inches off because I lost them healthily!
As a coach, I am able to stay at home with the kids and still contribute to the family. I work from my home computer, and help others decide on a program that is right for them, commit to it, and then succeed in reaching their health and fitness goals. It is truly inspiring the people I talk to, the groups I am part of, and the coaches that help me. Team Beachbody is like a big family full of ordinary people wanting to help others while still on their own fitness journey. I am truly thankful for everything that Beachbody is and that I am a part of it!
