Women Transformation Stories - Challenge Group Results

I have THREE amazing groups running right now!! I just started a FREE 7 Day Shred to help people learn how to eat clean and get some good results in a weeks time and a little extra accountability. We started Monday and today is day 4. They are doing AWESOME!! I also have my Holiday Slim Down Group that just hit Day 30 and WOW WOW WOW.. I am BLOWN AWAY!! The results are INSANE! I also have my 21 Day Holiday Survival Guide Group going and I can tell you that the results will be just as mind blowing. Some have already dropped a few pant sizes in only a few weeks. Together we share our progress, meals, water intake and encourage each other to go further then we ever have before. TOGETHER WE ARE BETTER!

I am totally OVERJOYED with sharing with you our results. They are inspiring and totally real! It's not some fake results or a gimmick - WE SEE SO MANY OF THOSE - but REAL people just like you who decided they had enough and were going to take the leap of faith and entrust in myself or the coaches on my team to help them make a life change. The each committed to a fitness program such as TurboFire, Chalean Extreme, Insanity, T25, and Slim in 6 , replacing one meal a day with Shakeology, and following the clean eating principals. They have TOTALLY ROCKED IT! They even did good during Thanksgiving. We all posted our meals and what we cheated with. We enjoyed ourselves and didn't feel deprived what so ever. It's been great having such a great support system during the toughest months of the year. I'm even down 5 pounds. The key is to have BALANCE with anything you do in life. That's what we focus on. 

                                       

Each challenger signed a commitment letter to do this together. To check in daily and to NEVER LOOK BACK! No crash diets, no quick fixes, no starvation diets. Eating Clean and Training MEAN!! This is a complete LIFESTYLE Change!! We hide the scale and measure our success based on the way we feel and the way our clothes fit. We work through emotional eating, stress eating, how to get through the holidays and stay on track, share our meal plans, and most of all stick together while lifting each other up. I am so proud of each of these challengers because they have followed through with their commitment and have totally CRUSHED it. 

Lindsey Oswald - She is a brand new coach on my team and just advanced to Emerald Rank. She also lost 17 pounds pounds this month and 9 inches. Seriously this is AMAZING!! Truly inspiring!! She is doing TurboFire, one of my personal favorites. Military wife, Stay at home Mom, and making it happen. 

Abby Hennum- Abby has been so encouraging to the team, checking in daily, posting her sweaty workout pictures, and really lifting the group up. She has lost a total of 14 lbs 5.5inches in 30 days. How amazing is this?

She has gone from 200 lbs to 167 and has lot a total of 33 pounds since the beginning of her journey. I have seen her change so much. She shows up daily to lift everyone up and never gives up, even when things get tough. She has done Brazil Butt Lift and T25 plus added in Shakeology to her diet.

Missy Gray - Has lost a total of 45 pounds in 6 months doing TurboFire, T25, and running. She has traveled home and her husband has been away a lot but she still managed to get it done. So proud of her. Her results are truly inspirational. 

Each challenger didn't just go through a physically transformation but a mental. They were able to clear their skin, gain more confidence, improve their marriage, and where clothes they never thought they would be able to wear again. 

When I read this message below in our challenge group I literally jumped up and down and then got tears in my eyes. It's so amazing to watch people physically and mentally change right before you. 

Watching these transformations each and every day come through my inbox and are shared in our group totally get me going each morning and show me that what i'm doing and what WE are doing is REALITY. This is really changing lives and making the world a better place. It totally gets me going and brings a huge smile to my face. 

Just knowing that we each other every day to hold each other accountable, cheer each other up, and encourage one another is something magically. We have access to each other 24/7 in our group and are able to share results, discouragements, and personal things with each other because we are in this together. That's what my challenge groups are all about!! Creating bonds and always having someone in your corner!! 

Today I am sending a HUGE shout out to my challengers and each and every person that follows me that has had some kind of weight loss our success. You deserve to be SHOUTED OUT!! You have worked hard!! I am SO PROUD OF YOU!! 

If you are looking to join this type of community and are wanting support, motivation, and accountability through your own personal journey contact me to get the details on my next challenge group. 

Weekly T25 Update & Menu Plans

It's been SO long since I've given you an update on my fitness journey!! I am just now finishing week 7 of T25. This week is the LAST week for me. I know I have a few weeks left on the schedule but I have shifted gears and have a new goal in mind. I love T25 and will for SURE be going back to it but last min change of plans with a few of my girl friends. We have decided to enter into a half marathon run and it's October 12th so I got to get my booty in to gear and give all of my attention and time to this run. I wanted to try and do both but realistically it's not going to work out. I'm running 16 miles this week alone. Of course I will continue to update you on my menu plans and will now include my runs. Super excited to blog my 1/2 Marathon Journey. This was something that was on my Dream Board all year long and I can finally check it off. 

So here is my Schedule from last week and I'll also Share with you my Schedule for my half marathon

This weeks Run Schedule 

Week ONE

Monday - I did T25 

Tuesday - Run 3 Miles 

Wednesday - Run 5 Miles 

Thursday - Run 2 Miles 

Friday - Off

Saturday - Run 6 Miles 

Sunday - STRECH 

I am really loving my long runs and LOVE that I have a HUGE goal to work towards. I'm motivated by goals and challenges so any time I have something like this to work towards I do my best. I have always loved running. It's a great stress release. I love that I can just listen to the music and there is nothing but the road and my thoughts. I'll be happy to add in some Les Mills Pump Or T25 when I get a little stronger in my running but for now I'm giving my runs my FULL attention. I really want to focus on myself through this journey and allow this to be the time that I can give to myself to just relax and not think about anything. It's challenging because I'm running faster then I normally have in the past. Trying to keep my short runs at a 10 min mile. So last night I ran 5 miles in 50 mins. It was SO challenging but i'm only going to get stronger. 

I'm going to miss my 25 min workouts. It was so nice to just get up, hit snooze a few times and get it DONE! It was tough but before I knew it I was dripping in sweat and time was up. My runs will take between 30 mins to over an hour but I'm excited for the journey. 

An important part part of any workout program is your NUTRITION!! Creating a meal plan and sticking to it is where your results come in to play. 

Every week I sit down on my computer and plan out my week. I write out what workouts i'm doing and what I plan to eat each day. I know that If I sit down and take these few hours a week that I will be GOLDEN! Life will be good, the house will be full of clean eats, and staying on track will be EASY PEASY! Takes all the guess work and I don't have to sit and wonder what i'm going to eat. Instead of resulting to fast food .. my fast food is ready for me in my fridge. Most of the meals I make only take about 30 mins. Some nights we eat leftovers or I feel like something else but at least I know I have all the ingredients in the fridge for healthy meals. This plan has also saved me MONEY! 

This weeks plan had SEVERAL new Recipes that I plan on sharing with you!! 

The Sweet Potato, Black Bean, & Quinoa Chili is amazing and awesome for left overs. Everyone loved it and I really could eat it all week long. It's packed full of protein! Delicious and meat free. 

Every single week I make out my menu plan. It's become a habit that I know is part of my plan every Sunday. I consistently sit down, make my menu plan, grocery shop, and chop up what needs to be chopped! BOOM - Up on the fridge and ready to go. I am busy with my 2 year old and Kindergartner that I really don't have time to think about what I'm eating each day. I need to just look in the fridge and be able to grab it. My kids eat the same thing I do for the most part and have learned to love it. It doesn't take me hours to make and it's normal food. I'm not just eating chicken breast and veggies. Normal food just made from REAL ingredients.

I would love to help you and guide you through your own personal journey. I've been there and overcame the struggles!
