Nutrition

Nutrition is an integral part of our life. It is not simply about "losing weight".  In fact, the majority of people who go on a diet and lose weight, lack the nutrition their body needs.  When we cut back on calories, we also cut back on nutrients as well.  Our bodies need nutrition to sustain long-term and without the proper nutrition, our bodies will eventually give out in many forms.  The first sign is mental, emotional, and physical stress signs which include fatigue, irritability, anxiety, and depression.  

I have gathered information for years by reading books and articles on nutrition and health, watching videos, listening to podcasts, and talking with experts in the field. I developed an understanding for the importance of super-foods.  In a nutshell, super-foods are nutritionally dense foods with higher vitamins and minerals than other foods, which aid in the prevention and healing of disease and illnesses. 

The problem I discovered after gathering so much incredible information about all of these super-foods, was that there was no way that I was going to be able to buy, prepare, and eat all of those foods to gain the amazing benefits! WTH?! So now I have this knowledge, but I can't do anything about it?! Well that didn't seem fair, or right! But I already buy organic and let's be honest, superfoods that are also organic are just way too expensive!!! Not to mention that I had 2 children under 2 years old and there was no way in (you know what) that I had time for all of that. Additionally, many of these superfoods were not even available locally! 

Frustrating right? I was extremely frustrated with trying to choose what was best for me and my family. This went on for over a year until I found a solution.  I actually discovered a solution to my problems! I thank God for it because it is the ultimate solution in just ONE package. It solved all of my concerns with finances, time, and quantity.  Shakeology is the amazing super-food smoothie that I was skeptical of for a couple years, but turns out, it has all of the superfoods, integrity, and convenience all in one!

What exactly is it? Watch the video below which explains it much better than I ever could! 

Shakeology

My family and I have been drinking Shakeology for over a year now (including my kids), and we have experienced many health benefits including illness prevention and decreased health issues (acne, brittle nails, cravings, fatigue, hives, irritable bowel syndrome, and the list goes on). There are countless benefits and countless people who have benefited from adding this delicious drink ( and yes it's delicious though I would drink it if it were not anyways).

What happened next?

After I got my nutrition under control, I know I needed to workout but I let my gym membership lapse because getting 2 children ready to go to the gym, waiting for equipment, joining classes with no modifications for someone like me (plus size, Fibromyalgia, and chronic pain) did not work for me.  I needed something quick, to the point, that allowed me to workout without leaving my home.  So I started with the Beachbody workout programs and to my surprise, it was for a wide variety of people (including me) and not just for those with "beach bodies". So I gave it a try and ordered some programs. I loved them so much that I joined the Beachbody on Demand club to stream the workouts from my television rather than worrying about a dvd player.  I now have access to over 600 workouts and several trainers who don't even make me feel bad or embarrassed for my skill level.  In fact,  feel like the trainers are talking right to me even though they are on the screen! I absolutely fell in love with the versatility of the programs and it has helped me get stronger every day since January, 2016!  Check out the AMAZING On Demand program system that has helped me stay on track with my workouts even through moving cross-country and staying in hotel rooms! Check out this video that explains everything you need to be successful!

Side note....I am kind of upset that they did not have this available when I joined because this is a killer offer! 

Annual All-Access Challenge Pack

I have truly been amazed at how valuable streaming workouts has been for me and my family.  My preschoolers work out with me, I am able to choose a trainer and workout program that works best for me for that day.  Honestly, when I had to go to the gym to get a workout in, I would think of every excuse, especially if I was experiencing a Fibromyalgia flare or it was just a rough morning altogether. There is no way I would have been able to workout at a gym during the sale of our home, move across the country, during our 3 months in a temporary home, and then the move into our new home.  However, with Beachbody on Demand and Streaming my workouts, I was able to stay on track and I worked out in any place I needed to including the garage, outside, hotel rooms, 4ft x 4ft spaces, and even the kitchen! I have used the smart tv, Amazon Firestick, computer, ipad, and even my iphone to stream my workouts.  And when I didn't have internet access, I didn't have to worry because I was able to download several workouts onto my ipad!  Now, I can choose my workout, choose my trainer, choose my time, attend to my kids when needed, and I never have to leave my house or worry about the limitations of a specific gym!  

This truly is the complete package! You want to take advantage of this offer NOW because this price will not last! The Annual membership provides nutritional support including Shakeology, customized meal plans, portion control containers, healthy recipes and cooking show, meal planning tips and tricks, accountability and support.  Additionally, you will receive access to every program Beachbody has ever released and any new workout program that they release during your annual membership (the clock starts when you sign up).  You will also receive individual coaching from me, as needed to support you in meeting your goals, and access into my exclusive accountability and support groups.
