The picture on the left is my 23rd Birthday pre-children life. The picture on the right is me at 30. WHY did I have the motivation to change? I am a mother of two vibrant and energetic boys that I live for. I am their prime example of a healthy lifestyle. I want to be able to keep up with them. I want to take them on adventures and be physically able to enjoy the outdoors with them. I don’t want to be strapped down to medical bills in the future, because I didn’t take care of myself to avoid preventable diseases. I didn’t want to rely on food to make me feel better. I didn’t want to shame on myself for not looking and feeling great. These were ALL big enough reasons for me to have the DESIRE to DECIDE to ACT to CHANGE my life.
I was active. I felt like I understood nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. I studied it in college and I even have a degree in the area! I have had weight loss successes in the past and felt like I knew what to do, why would I need help to reach my goals? After SEVEN long months of failing and shutting down offers to try P90X I finally did, after I swore I would never do Beachbody programs… EVER! I tried a P90X live class and it changed my life! The support, the 30 minute workouts, being taught REAL nutrition rather than diets, was exactly what I needed. I felt like I had the healthy lifestyle thing figured out, and I knew I was capable of helping others discover this as well. I knew I had a purpose to make a difference. I joined #TeamBeachbody to use my gifts to help others.
Judge how you may, but I proudly represent Team Beachbody and everything it stands for. It’s not about drinking a supplement to lose weight like I always thought it was. It’s about changing the way you live with exercise, a REAL nutritional program, and unbelievalbe support with poeple that can relate with you , motivate you, and encourage you! I just checked on my current challenge group to find all the victories from today and I’m not kidding, it made me emtional. To see these challengers chrush goals, become happier and healthier, and ENJOY life is WHY I coach.#IAMTEAMBEACHBODY
