165892075_10102538079835032_3941183131321998810_o.jpg

Yep, I'm in my bathroom, taking selfies Judge if ya want but I've come a LONG way from the days of judging myself & weighing myself MULTIPLE times a day then starving myself to get to a certain number. Bye bye scale! I threw it away 11 years ago and I've fallen in love with what my body can do. #nsv

And yup, that added muscle mass makes me feel strong and yup, now I don't mind how I look in them jeans...as long as they stretchy what's a NON SCALE VICTORY you celebrating lately!?!?!?

Oh, and in case you ask. I buy MOST of my "regular looking clothes" at goodwill or Salvation army. 4/5 jeans I own come from there hey I love a good deal

Cauliflower Was a Mistake

165280278_10102537088197282_2966375352896864097_o.jpg

Just fyi...that's not my bottom lip I swear it's my tongue.Anyhoooooo. Not gonna lie. Today's lunchtime shake, SUCKED.

You aren't gonna see many people that rave about whey are "selling" actually tell you the "bad" parts....

Well that's not me. I'm gonna be honest. ALWAYS with you guys.

So today I added in frozen cauliflower...WHY!? bc I see people recipes for "hiding more veggies" in your diet and I thought I'd give it a go....Y'ALL ITS A NO GO at least for me.

And tbh with ya, when I FIRST started drinking this superfoods mix I didn't really like it. I needed to find the right combo for me
((( which is usually the vegan tropical strawberry with frozen fruit and a healthy fat...BELENDED WELL...)))...

....but today I tried something new and wanted to share bc YES THIS SHAKE IS AMAZING AND YES THERE IS A RIGHT WAY AND WRONG WAY TO MAKE IT.

So just be sure you do the same. Find what works for you. Your health is worth it....and maybe stay away from frozen cauliflower

Btw, just curious how do your make superfoods shakes!?!??!

Best Health Mindset

164743989_10102536852789042_4196338958412436904_o.jpg

Your BEST health is not attainable until you master your mindset.

When you love yourself, you eat like yourself...& treats aren't done in guilt but in ENJOYMENT. (Before, during and after).

When you love yourself you show up consistently in your workouts...& you also REST as needed.

When you love yourself you put up boundaries and stay away from the drama and the toxic people.

When you love yourself you see the world differently and the impact it has on YOU doesn't matter as much as the impact YOU make for the world.

When you love yourself you look for the abundance rather than the scarcity and you are thankful for EVERY breath you take because you know we are only here for a short while.

I hope your BEST HEALTH happens for you. Not tomorrow, but in THIS MOMENT. Your BEST health can happen IN AN INSTANT by the choices you make RIGHT NOW.

Trying Again

This quitter is TRYING...Again.

164141836_10102533590960772_3222764116398492833_o.jpg

Ya know, what I'm "good at" ?! Showing on socials what I'm good at & it’s probably because I wasn't very confident most of my life...so when I talk about my struggles it's HARD. And admitting I QUIT at something has been weighing on me.....

Do y'all remember when I quit that running/strength train program in the fall???

Well I'm admitting I'm NOT good at that program but I'm also telling YOU...I'm trying it.. AGAIN..even if I'm NOT GOOD at this. I'M DOING IT! We ALL start at the beginning and if we ONLY ever attempt what we feel strong in then we NEVER GROW!

Plus the weather is WAYYY better & I'm going to do this 30 day program in 2 weeks April 5th - May 4th. (Before the new Dance Fit program).

Anyhow, If you ALREADY have access to our SWEAT-FLIX then you ALSO get access to this program(open to the library TODAY!) and there are $20 pff all packs for NEW sign ups till .

With that said, I'm curious. Do YOU want to do this program with me?!?!?! I've found accountability is KEY with these programs and I've got a private group for this SPECIFIC program. Wanna join it!?!?

Results!

159972165_10102527770699622_4462683410132109398_o.jpg

Well, finished another program and decided to use the same outfit ....and Batman joined in tbh, I blame my period for the extra fluff I happened to eat these last 5 days I'm human too....

I find the REAL transformation for me is proving to myself that I CAN stay committed to these programs. Yea, it took me 3 years of Coaching before I could actually do it, but hey, progress is progress, amirite?!?!?

Also, if that one dude calls me "fatter" again for posting my "progress" pics Ima just block you, ok!?!?

And NO, I don't post for compliments only, I post to CELEBRATE EVERY PART OF MY JOURNEY, and yea, if you are gonna be negative about it, just know it's NOT GONNA STOP ME....and, I HOPE it doesn't stop my friends either when they get those people who AREN'T rooting for them.

Keep showing up guys. Sometimes you have great results. Other times not so good. It's OK. I'm gonna be here no matter what, and I got your back too.

Decisions and Values

160997240_10102527554637612_4802159960950468574_o.jpg

We are only TRULY happy when the decisions and actions we take are in alignment with our VALUES. And happiness is NOT found in the "right now"...but in the "RIGHT."

I had to really dig deep on those statements above bc I find myself often thinking and getting excited about the "right now" goals....& I start to focus less on the "RIGHT" things.

If you are like me then sometimes we struggle with this because our joy can be about the IDEA of something, executing it, and when the expectations don't meet the idea in our head I find myself asking...

So were my expecting too high? Did I not work hard enough? What did I do WRONG?

ALL ARE THE WRONG QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF.

Instead ask....

What are the VALUES behind your actions? And were your actions in alignment with them? Were you being authentic to YOU? Did you still learn something of value from this?

THOSE ARE THE RIGHT QUESTIONS.

Sometimes outcomes don't fit, but when you look DEEPER you find you are living RIGHT and that has deeper fulfillment than you ever thought possible.

So ask yourself. What are YOUR values. Most likely they are the same as most.

YOU VALUE FAMILY & CLOSE FRIENDS.
YOU VALUE LOVE.
YOU VALUE HAPPINESS.

Live a life that stays true to those values and you are on the RIGHT path.

Value family by loving them unconditionally. Don't just say it, SHOW IT. Without expectations either. And if you find yourself needing help...Ask for help!!!! Stop making assumptions. Living in your value means not assuming people can read your your mind.

Value LOVE by accepting love and giving it. This means taking time for YOU too

Value happiness by living in gratitude and finding the beauty in life. Struggle seeing that positive? Then you MUST start saying NO to things or people that don't serve you. That way you can YES to those that do.

Just some thoughts & my takeaways I wanted to share today from Sundays book club. Hope this inspires you in some way today. Love ya friend

24 --> 37

159428900_10102522299334282_268531575387324917_o.jpg

24 --> 37
Still a gamer.
Still a fitness instructor.
Still married to my best friend.

The real difference tho....
Taking care of myself and following these programs that I invite you to do with me.

YES, the door is ALWAYS open and I KNOW it takes time and I KNOW you are scared to fail.

I.WAS.TO.

Just FYI, the ONLY reason I'm here with confidence and no fear NOW is because I KEPT failing. I KEPT showing up. I KEPT learning to forgive & trust myself. I learned to to let go of my ego bc that mean girl did NOT have my best interest.

Life is short, learn to love who you are NOW. Bc YES that part of you that DOES love you WILL take action.

Listen to that person MORE OFTEN. YOU GOT THIS BABE!!!!!
