So the holidays are right around the corner. I mean Thanksgiving is practically a week away. And are you one of those people who just keeps saying,
"well I am just going to wait until the New Year rolls around."
"it's too hard during the holidays to lose weight."
"to much temptation, travelling, visiting with family."
I know, I have heard it before and honestly I was one of those people who gave these excuses. I would work hard all year round & then as soon as it would start to get cold I would just stop giving my all in exercises, quit watching what I ate, and just let myself go. I was that girl who always made the New Years Resolution to lose weight & clean up her diet. And can I let you in on a little secret..... Eric said some of these "excuses" this past weekend. I had to stop for a moment and really let it sink in what he had just said. I mean people really wait until after the holidays are over to change themselves....why?
I looked at him and said why wait? It's to hard was the response I got. I said no it's not, I'm about to prove your wrong. And that is exactly what I tend to do. I am planning on starting a three week, Prove YOURSELF wrong group. I'm going to continue my routine til after thanksgiving and then December 1st I am going to open it up to ANYONE who wants to lose /maintain weight before Christmas. We will end 4 days before Christmas....are you IN?
- 3 weeks
- 30 minute workouts
- 30 day supply of shakeology
- colored containers to portion your food out
- simple nutrition / meal plans
- accountability
- myself as your coach
All you need to do is COMMIT! Decide that you don't want to be a year you gain weight. Feel better than ever this holiday season & let's work together. Who's in to prove yourself (and your significant other) WRONG?? Take a moment to fill out the challenge application.
**spots are filling up fast & I'm only accepting ten applicants**
Let me tell you something here! I had this shrimp down in the Gulf Shores when I went to visit my Aunt & Uncle and fell in love. Seriously, every time we went down to a restaurant I ordered it. I never got sick of it & wanted to make it when I got home. Took me a few months to even try it, but we made it for dinner last night & delish.
Obviously the shrimp is not friend. I did not use mayo I used Greek yogurt.
Ingredients:
-1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt -1/4 cup Thai Sweet Chili Sauce -3 drops Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce (or hot sauce of your choice) -1 pound shrimp -lettuce -chopped scallions Directions: -Mix Greek yogurt with Thai Sweet Chili Sauce. Add hot sauce to taste.
-Line a plate with lettuce , top with chopped scallions. -We also cooked brown rice & served with that.
Since we used the Greek yogurt it bit sweet rather than super hot like I remember, BUT it was still delish. If we would have used mayo in place it would have been the same way I remember. But I am all about promoting clean eating, so Greek yogurt it is. Small little choices over time make a big difference!
Beachbody is at it again, bringing you only the hottest new programs, which is set to launch at Summit in three days. Have you ever heard of the creator, Chalene Johnson. She is also known for Turofire, CLX, Turbojam, and much more. Two weeks until this program is released & I think it is something I am just going to need with my recent knee injury.

Piyo will be released on June 23rd to Team Beachbody customers. You can be the first to score your copy of the Piyo Challenge Pack and land yourself a spot in an exclusive Piyo Test Group. This is a select group of individuals who are committed to starting and finishing the program and getting the best results possible. In order to secure a spot you have to be willing to give it 100% commitment over the course of the program! You must be willing to invest in the fitness, the nutrition and the support. If you put the work in, I will help & support you ever step of the way, and you will succeed. BUT you have to do the work, I can't do it for you.
How do I join this exclusive test group? A Piyo Test Group is a group that is exclusively JUST for PIYO. It is a closed online accountability group in which everyone can submit their results to Team Beachbody for a chance to win the monthly and quarterly prizes & you will get a free tshirt just for completing the program. Plus you will have the opportunity to be one of the first people to say that this program actually does work, by YOUR RESULTS!!!!
This is totally insane!!!! You remember me talking about the newest fitness program to hit Beachbody shelves right?? I have been so excited for the release date, but even the challenge packs are on pre-order. They will be shipped out first come - first serve.
The 21 Day Fix sold over what they expected in just one working day. This program has been flying off the shelves.
This program literally sold more in EIGHT HOURS just on the release date than what they EXPECTED in a week. There may be some exceptions to the PRE-ORDER rule there are shipping delays so act fast, because you don't want to wait much longer to have your shipped. This means that my
February 10th groups are officially closed to those that will receive their
products by next week. I am starting to open up March groups now in hopes we will get to start March 10th. I may need to push this date back if orders still are not shipping yet, but have no fear I will be providing meal plans and going over all the material so you are properly prepared.
HAPPY SUNDAY! And I am just going to shout it out from the roof tops!!! It is PRETTY FANTASTIC to be a COACH!!!
I am so amazed at all the people who are putting their trust in me to help reach their goals. So, if you are ready to get in tip-top shape in JUST 21 days, learn portion control, and proper nutrition....LET'S DO THIS!!!!
Do you have trouble losing those last ten pounds? It feels like no matter what you do, they are just so stubborn they won't come off anywhere? If your saying yes to yourself right now, do not worry you are not alone this has happened to me! I tried everything...increasing my water intake, exercising more than I do, and make myself diet.... And still NOTHING!!!! And when you don't see results that's when you throw in the towel and just give up.
But I am here to tell you, that you do NOT have to give up! I have something to offer you, just in time for the holidays. Ever hear of a little book called Tosca Reno: Eat Cleaned Stripped? This is going to be your best buddy. The #2 coach in all of Beachbody is opening up her next challenge group up, which she has successfully done herself to get of the last 10lbs. And now, I am inviting you to join right along side me to learn from the best!!!!!
So here is the offer (that sounds too good to be true): a 30 day support system has been created for ANY individual who is willing to commit to the following requirements: each day log into the closed online group and you will see a tip of the day, recipe, and information to use to help lose the weight. A meal plan will be provided for the week. You can choose to use it how it is or fix it to make it for for you. You have access to us as a team any time of the day. When cravings strike you have the group to lean on. We are all here to truly help each other. I find it really makes all the difference if you have an amazing support system on your side (or virtual).
Do not expect to starve yourself, because that is just not going to happen. I like to eat, but eating the right foods makes the difference. So you will be eating 5-6 meals a day. No fancy recipes, just foods simple and easy. Still drinking half your body weight in oz of water and exercise!!!!
What's next???
1. I mustbe your Beachbody Coach. Go to my site to create your free account so I am your coach.
2. You are required to replace one meal a day with Shakeology HD for the whole 30 day group. This is not just a protein shake/weight loss shake, but a nutrient meal shake. This is the one meal that is quick and easy to go and will save you when life gets in the way. You are getting the right protein to carb ratio of what your body needs to have enough energy, keep you full, and help save your sweet tooth. Shakeology is certainly amazing and is worth the investment you will be making. This if you are always on the run, veggies aren't your first choice as a side for dinner, or you get home late and have nothing prepared for dinner...it will save you! And be the best decision you ever made! Just try it and give me thirty days to let me change your doubts or reservations on it. I was weary on it at first too, but honestly I can't imagine skipping this meal for a day. My stomach problems...GONE- just from clean eating & shakeology.
Exercising is not a requirement but it is highly encouraged. We will mainly be focusing on Shakeology & Clean Eating but exercising will help with your individual results. If you want something that is effective and time efficient I highly suggest Shaun T's: FOCUS T-25. It is my personal fan favorite, twenty-five minutes a day and you are still seeing the results. It is quick and effective. But if you are pressed for time like most of us are in our busy lives or you sleep in and don't wake up from your alarm. You still have time to get your workout in and be ready for where you need to be.
That's a wrap...the 30 day Clean Eating Stripped Challenge Group in a nutshell. Commit to 30 days and I promise to give you 100% of my undivided attention, you will succeed in this group! You have my support and the group of others!!! Are you in?!
If you are ready send me an e-mail message to let me know. And I will return your message ASAP walking you through the whole sign up and ordering process. The group starts on November 4th so there is not much time left before it closes.
