Secrets of their success!

We hear about it all the time, people restrict their calories, drop weight fast, look great for a few months and next thing you know they've gained it all back (and more!)

And then you hear about those who have lost weight and keep it off .  What do they know that you don't?  What are the secrets to long term weight loss? How do they find and maintain a healthy lifestyle?

Well, I'm going to tell you.  And if you're smart you'll not only listen but do them!!

1.  One of the biggest ways people keep their weight off is to exercise!  They tend to be active daily and tend to exercise at home!

2.  They write down what they eat!  Yup, you're going to have to keep track of what you're putting away (seriously, I know if I don't keep track I really think I've eaten far less than I have!)  Get myfitnesspal, or a note book, or a fitbit and use the online tracker.  Anything really - keep notes on your phone. Just keep track.

3.  They eat breakfast!! YES, you need to eat breakfast! You need to jump start your metabolism in the morning.  Skipping breakfast (and secretly trying to "save" those calories for a later meal just helps to derail your progress!)

4.  Control your portions & choose healthier options.  Rats!! You're going to have to forgo the big mac and choose the lean grilled chicken more times than not!  Listen, if you choose well 80 % of the time, it'll work out!

5.  They have support!  See!! I've told you to join my group!!  If you become accountable (post daily) you will stick with it!  If you don't then you may not.  Get support - offer motivation - gain accountability  Really, you'll make friends, learn new things every day, get positive support and be healthier.

6.  Know that you can do it -- And the real kicker, positive affirmation!  Believe in yourself, really.  You're in control, you can do this.  We're here to help. Believe it and achieve it (sounds cheesy but I promise you it's true.)  Do me a favor, every day for the next month write down something positive about yourself every morning and night!  You'll feel better, you'll do better and you'll be better!!

Listen, do the above, you'll find success. You don't have to do it my way (I'm going to offer suggestions and solutions below but they are not the only ones.)  If you're struggling and have wanted to get in shape for longer than you remember and you just don't know where to start then let me help you.  Or let someone help you (and know you can do it.) This is the time!

And for a little guidance -

1. Exercise - hey, I'm a beachbody coach! I know about exercise! We have programs to help with any fitness level. Talk to me!  If you don't know what to do, let me help!  (browse the programs here:  Programs to choose from )  But I can guide you with other programs, or exercises too! You don't have to do mine!  I run too, I've done other videos!

2. Log it - I gave you guidance above.  write it down!

3.  Eat Breakfast!! Lots of healthy choices here, I personally choose Shakeology

4. Control portions/Eat Healthy - Shakeology helps with breakfast but what about your other meals?  If you're my client at Beachbody (you don't have to buy anything, just join and have me as your coach) I can customize meal plans for you (and even give you a shopping list!)  You can join in one of my shakeology cleanses or boot camps, I'll help all I can!

5. Support - I can help here! Join my group:  My Facebook Group

6.  Know you can do it! - This is all you, you have to believe in yourself (I believe in you!)

Now that you know, it's time to commit! You can do this!

This is the sign you've been waiting for!

What is it worth to you?

I hear you, I hear your questions, your requests, your comments asking what you need to do to get in shape.  I get them every day!  And I tell you the answer.  Are you listening?

There is no magic pill!  You want to get in shape, lose weight, be healthy for your kids?  Then you are going to have to do something more or different than you are doing now!  It will be work, but you know what?  It can be lots of fun too.  

I have the answers for you, are you willing to do it?  Are you willing to invest in yourself? Yes, you will have to spend money to eat healthy, get your supplements and nutrition, get your workout.  You can't afford it you say?  Hmmmm, wasn't that you I saw in the drive through getting that value meal?  Was that you at Starbucks getting a latte?  Are those chips (ice cream, cookies, etc) in your cart?  You see what I'm saying here.  You invest in your unhealthiness.  You pay to get fat.  You pay to get out of shape.  But you won't pay to get better?

What is it worth to you?  Depending on your current level of fitness, could you be at your goal in 30 days?  60 days?  90?  Regardless, in that amount of time whether you're at your goal or on your way you will have changed.....for the better!  How old are you?  Does health matter?  Want to be around for your kids or grand kids (or great grand kids?). You can.

Join us on our fitness journey. Get yourself a program and join my challenge group. You WILL have to commit. If its a 30 day group, you have to commit to 30 days!  You have to weigh yourself, measure yourself, take pictures of yourself (you don't have to share but I guarantee you'll want to when you achieve your after!)

You will need to drink shakeology for a meal. It is good for you!  You need to be drinking this everyday - for your health!  This is for the challenge and afterwards.  Your body needs these nutrients and for my challenges,I make sure you get them!  You'll agree by the time the challenge is over.

When you commit, you will need to agree to post daily in our private group.  We need to support each other, be accountable to one another, share our journey.  You'll make friends and get support, it really helps. 

So again, what's it worth to you?  Can you commit to 30 days?  Or more?  When you decide that a commitment is worth the results, you will succeed. 

If you are tired of your same excuses (this isn't going to happen on its own, you actually will have to do something!). Then go here, pick your challenge pack (workout program and shakeology). Challenge Packs

Then go here and message me to be included in the next challenge group. Campbeachbody Facebook Page

Then go to the mirror and say goodbye to the old you.  

Yes, it's here!! It's all natural!  No artificial colors, flavors, no GMOs, seriously folks, EVERYONE should be drinking this shake EVERYDAY.  Here's more information:  Shakeology Info - Short

Do you try to eat healthy?  Get your nutrients? Have a balanced diet?  If so, Shakeology is for you.  How about those who don't eat well?  Then Shakeology is REALLY for you!

Are you ready to to get healthy, lose weight, gain lean muscle?  Then Shakeology is for you!

This is the healthiest meal you'll consume each day.  Replace your breakfast with a shake every day and lose weight!  Let the pre/probiotics help your digestion!  Reduce your junk food cravings (this is true, it did mine!)  Increase your energy!

Unless you really don't care about your all over health then you need to add shakeology daily.  From Vegan Tropical Strawberry (my fav - but I haven't tried vanilla yet!) Greenberry, regular and vegan Chocolate and now VANILLA! There's a flavor (or two) for everyone!

Let me be real and tell you what I've experienced this month. I started shakeology daily 21 days ago.  First I just added it in (in addition to my normal menu)  I did try to cut out late night snacking and I continued to work out as always.  Within a week I did notice more energy and what really surprised me was how my cravings changed.  I wasn't craving high fat foods.  (and I crave them all the time. Years ago when I went on a restricted diet for a long time, after many months I stopped craving high fat foods.  That was great.  But this  took just a week!)

4 days ago I forgo my regular breakfast and just drank shakeology instead.  I have tried to make better choices with my other meals and snacks (but haven't tried dieting or a cleanse yet.)

To date (21 days) I can report that I have lost 6-7 pounds!! 3 weeks But better than that, I'm on my way to true health and fitness. Just Dieting and cutting calories without shakeology ends up cutting nutrients and you end up losing muscle as well as fat.  Not all calories are the same!!!!  In this scoop you get 70 vitamins & minerals!

Shop shakeology here:  Shop Shakeology

There's nothing to lose (except unwanted weight and an unhealthy lifestyle!)  Beachbody offers a 30 day money back GUARANTEE -- If you don't feel healthier, more energized, and simply amazing, you won't pay.

Why we call ourselves Team No Training (Team TNT)

We call ourselves Team No Training (Team TNT)  It all started about a year ago when I asked my niece if she wanted to run Disney's Half Marathon (Jan 2013)  Now, we had never run any races (EVER) and I thought it would be cool because it was on my birthday weekend (my 50th!)

She said yes so we signed up and had great intentions of training!  Mind you, we do run, I run a couple days a week (about 5 or 6 miles) and I do just about every BeachBody program out there.  But really thought we should train for 13.1 miles.

We started out okay, back in September we ran 8 miles one day and a few weeks later we ran 10.

And that was that.  We got busy and never picked up our training again.  But we continued our exercise as usual. I was (and still do) doing Turbo Fire, Body Beast, Les Mills pump (and had started Combat when it came out in December)  I ran on my treadmill....sometimes (just not the same as running outside.)

So wouldn't you know, January snuck up on us and here we were in Disney World in Florida getting pumped for our race (well, maybe freaked out is a better word! I mean, I'm 50!  I'm running 13.1 miles, I forgot to train!!)  Everyone there talked about how much they trained, all their runs, everything.  We didn't...

So after we stupidly walk over 13 miles on Friday (we just don't think sometimes) Saturday morning we got up bright and early (3:30) to catch the bus to Epcot.  We went out there (wishing we hadn't walked 13 miles the day before and that we HAD actually trained!)  But you know what? We did it. We ran the whole way, we finished fine (and went out and walked another 10 -13 miles that night!)  We felt great!!

And we wondered.  How is it that we can just go out and run 13.1 miles without training? And we realized. We do train.  TurboFire gets us ready with those hiit workouts- we can recover easily! The fire workouts give us stamina.  The muscles we build from Les Mills Pump & Body beast keep us moving pain free and combat just jacks us up and motivates us to go!  So my 5 -6 mile runs a few times a week, pumped up with my  Beachbody workouts were enough!

And guess what, a few weeks ago we did the Tough Mudder (11 miles) in Philadelphia the same way!!!  And next up for Team No Training is the Dumbo Double Dare in Disneyland California Labor Day weekend - 10 K on Saturday/ 1/2 marathon on Sunday!  It will complete our coast to coast challenge (we get 4 medals - 'nuff said)

But our biggie is November when we (voluntarily!) signed up for a Marathon (eeekk!)  Are we ready?  Yes, I think we will be.  I've upped my nutrition with Shakeology and already feel so much more energy (and have lost a few lbs without dieting yet!)  Wish us luck (or join our Team No Training - TNT) and get your workouts in and you'll be ready too!

Happy Exercising!

What are you eating?

Yup, that's right, this week, let's cut out the junk food!! Can you do it?  You know what junk food is, right?  Don't eat it.  One week (you can even have a cheat day if you need it!)

Do you have goals? Do you want to reach them?  Why do you always sabotage yourself?  Working out isn't enough, you have to have nutrition!!  Do you want to build bulk muscle? Lean muscle? Lose weight, tone, tighten?  You have to eat right. Not buts about it!

Work out, yes, you can't get muscle (and yes, we all want to build our muscle even if we want to slim down!) we can't get that muscle without working out.  Lift weights, do cardio, do what feels good for you, yes!!  Do it!

But ---- and there is a big butt (is it yours??)  if you're working out and not eating right then you'll never reach your goals. Never.  Nutrition is key! You want 6 pack abs?? Those are made in the kitchen!  You want big triceps (love me some triceps!)  Lift weights, eat right, take your supplements!

Junk food is nothing but empty calories.  Yes, 3500 calories = 1 pound.  and if you cut 3500 calories from your diet you will lose about a pound.  But there is so much more to it than that.  Far too complicated science to go into here, but know that your body adjusts.  If you're eating crap, it will know it. You will be sluggish, you won't get the results you want, your body will starve!!

Look at your body like your car.  You give it the right fuel to go.  Put sugar in your gas tank and what happens???  Get a good start!  Commit to no junk food this week.  It's a small step but a step that will set you on the path to achieving the body & health that you are seeking.

I start my day with shakeology - it may or may not be for you.  Let me help you get on the right path for success. Start your day with a good, balanced breakfast.  Have healthy snacks in between meals and treat your body right.

Weekend Warriers

Just because it's the weekend doesn't mean you should be slacking!  It's okay to treat yourself (been good all week? Have a treat meal!)  Notice I said meal.....

So often we tend to just let loose on the weekend, letting our good habits go by the wayside.  Why not, instead, try something new??? For me, my new thing this weekend was Ezekiel bread (delicious!!)
As well as a new favorite shakeology recipe (Tropical shakeology, fresh pineapple, coconut soy milk, 1/2 banana, 6-7 ice cubes and blend!)  OMG, this is just beyond fabulous!  It was my breakfast but felt like my cheat meal.  The most nutritious meal of my day was also the most delicious!

Get out, it's summer (at least it is here!)  Hike a trail, ride a bike, go for a run, play tennis, PLAY WITH YOUR KIDS!  There's so many ways to get fit!! Yes, you'll need regular weight training (post on this will be coming soon, do not neglect this!) Isn't that what P90x is for!!!!

Make new habits this weekend that will form a lifetime of health!

What are you doing today? Be accountable, come post with others about your workouts and get & give support!  www.facebook.com/campbeachbody

Bring it!

Why do all the top trainers and nutritionists stress the importance of a healthy breakfast?  If you eat a good, balanced breakfast it helps to rev up your metabolism, keeps you alert, starts those brain waves and can help keep you at a healthy weight.

Have you noticed all the fitness magazines give recipes and booklets on smoothies and why you should add them to your diet daily?  First, it's quick and easy (just throw some ingredients in the blender and turn on)  You can drink it in the car on the way to work, school or when running around with the kids.  It can be made healthy by adding skim or soy milk, a little fruit and ice and voila! A healthy meal.

Did you know you can take that seemingly simple breakfast and make it a superfood?  Seriously, are you interested in nutrition? Being healthy? Having energy? Losing weight? Maintaining weight (even packing on muscle)  Here's that secret formula to incorporate into your daily life forever.

Shakeology.  Really, shakeology (and I am so not a shake drinker that it took me forever to try it)  When you make your morning smoothie with Shakeology you will be providing ultimate nutrition in that little cup (and by the way, it actually tastes good!)

I'm team Tropical all the way (no matter how much those chocoholics try to convince me otherwise)  But you can find the flavor you like best and let it do the work!  Here's what it will do:

1. Build lean muscle - Improve skin & hair - support optimal brain function - improve mood - reduce cravings
2. Help reduce oxidative damage from free radicals, promote heart health and ideal blood pressure, support joint health and keep your brain healthy
3. Help alkalize the body and promote detoxification of the liver, kidneys and blood to restore health and vitality
4. Help protect the body from stress, support the immune system and balance the endocrine system
5. Help promote regularity, support a balanced microflora environment in the intestinal tract and improve digestion
6. Help the body break down foods and increase absorption of nutrients

Really!!  If you're serious about getting fit, getting healthy and feeling good then this is something you must not skip.  

And yes, it may seem costly, anything good is.  But when you break it down, it's $4 per day (a meal for $4)  What are you spending at that drive through?  What are you shelling over at Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts?  

Don't shortchange your fitness, reach those goals you've set out before you.  This is something you will not regret.  But here's the secret, when you get shakeology through beachbody, get it on the home direct to save shipping (it's free that way)  You can just cancel at any time (so it is not smart to just buy a bag and pay shipping, just cancel if you want after you buy!)  I'd almost be willing to bet that once you start drinking it everyday that you won't cancel though.  Not sure? Ask your doctor!! 

The best shake out on the market, hands down (want the comparison - just ask!! )

Do you want to try it without committing to a whole month? I usually have sample packs available in 3, 4, 6, or 8 packs, just contact me below if you want to try!
