My Why

When I became a Beachbody coach I was asked to determine why I was doing it. That was easy, I love helping others become healthy naturally. At first I joined Herbal Life, they have all these amazing ways in which they help others become healthy. When I received my kit I was horrified to see the ingredients in the Healthy Meal nutritional shake.

The biggest thing that got me was it contained a soy product, corn product, and canola oil. Soy is 93% genetically mutated, corn 86%, and canola 90%, and none of them were listed as organic, or non-GMO. At first I thought no big deal the majority of the people I know eat GMOs, and think I'm crazy anyway. But, something inside me said NO, you can't do this. If they want to eat them that is fine, but I am not going to be their supplier.

Now when I looked at the ingredients in Shakeology I knew what the ingredients were. I was also impressed to see that an ingredient that is highly mutated was labeled as non-GMO. There are 70 ingredients that go into Shakeology, and I knew all but 5. Five out of 70! That is pretty dang good, I'm so impressed with this product, the ingredients, and how other countries are benefiting from it financially.

You can visit my page, free Shakeology sample to watch a video of all the ingredients in Shakeology, and what they do for you. Honestly I drank it once, but after seeing all the benefits I want to start drinking it every day. I personally thought it was just to lose weight, but it is so much more than that. This morning I read various posts from other coaches who have been relieved of anxiety, fibromyalgia, type 2 diabetes, arthritis, and PCOS. I'm sure there is more out there, but that is just what I came across looking for information for my daughter and some friends.


Here is some of what is being said about Shakeology.

From Letti on TomBirkenmeyer.com regarding PCOS

I started drinking Shakeology as part of my morning ritual beginning in January, and within one week I got my period for the first time since August. 

I quit drinking the Shakeology for about 6 weeks and found that, as I suspected, I didn’t menstruate and I wasn’t feeling well at all so I started drinking Shakeology again every day, and once again within a week I saw a return of my menstrual cycle.

 From Tia at Defyingfybromalgia as of March 2014 she has been free of fybromalgia symptoms for a year.

Aside from addressing “fibro fatigue”, it also helps tremendously with fibro fog, pain, and depression – to name a few.  Along with the Ultimate Reset and my fitness program (TURBOFIRE!), Shakeology has all but eradicated my symptoms.  But, without Shakeology, I truly don’t think I would have even been able to begin Turbo Jam or any cardio program.

21 Days to a Better Me

Just because we eat real food does not mean we will not gain weight, or become unhealthy. Our bodies are very complex, and it needs alot of different things to keep it healthy. Exercise is one aspect of our lives many ignore, we were created to move. In this day and age many have jobs requiring them to sit all day. Now don't think because you have a physical job you don't need to work out,  not true. Ladies, just because we are chasing after kids, lifting our babies, or climbing stairs doesn't mean we don't need to work out.

We all need to work out to strengthen our bones, heart, and develop slick defined muscles. Some people might just focus on cardio for weight loss. Down side to that you will be left with lose skin, yuck not very attractive. While you are losing weight you have to tone that body as well. Just as you shouldn't do just cardio, you also should not just tone even if you are just maintaining your weight. That heart needs to pump to stay healthy, and this is what the cardio will do for you.

I just became a Beach Body coach because I love helping others get fit and healthy. For a long time I refused to do this because of the price of the products. Then I did a freelance job for a coach for a new program called the 21 Day Fix. I was impressed by the eating system incorporated into this program using containers for the various food groups. I also started looking at their product labels, I saw organic, non-GMO, and BPA free plastic, okay that really did it. If it were not for those three words I would not have become a coach. I can not, would not, will not sell or promote any product I would not use my self.

You don't just get the containers you also get a Shakeology container to mix your drink in, which also comes in vegan. The eating plan booklet is awesome, there are recipes which tell the containers to use, a chart to mark off the containers used each day, snack ideas, and so much more.The 21 Day Fix DVD contains seven workouts, 30 minutes each, so don't say you don't have time, 30 minutes is one sit com. It is two DVDs and each one also contains a 10 minute ab workout which is the same on both DVDs.You also get the bonus DVD Plyo Fix which is also 30 minutes long.

Next month I will turn 50, and I don't want to look, act it, or have anyone be able to look at me and determine how long I have been on earth. That is why I am taking this challenge however, my issue is not pounds it is inches. Anyone else want to join in this challenge, recipes, and printables will be made available.
