We haven't Met yet.... But I know Exactly How You Feel!
OK moms.... Time to Get Real!! Is this you???
- Do you hate looking at yourself in the mirror because you do not recognize the girl staring back at you anymore?
- Are you tired of feeling drained at the end of a long work day?
- Do you put yourself last on the priority list always falling behind the needs of your children and husband?
- Do you think that everything on your to-do list has to be checked off before you can take a minute for yourself?
- Are you tired of snapping at your kids because you are unhappy in your own skin?
- Are you tired of trying on every outfit in your closet and not being happy with a single thing that you put on ?
- Are you tired of not being able to keep up with your kids?
- Are you tired of being tired?
- Are you afraid of trying yet another program that you know will not work?
- Do you want to set a good example for your kids so that they grow up to live a healthy lifestyle?
- Do you want to be around to enjoy those grandchildren?
Developing a healthy lifestyle is hard. But, if there is one thing I have learned...it is easier with a support system! I know all too well how difficult it is to balance mom life, work life, and still find time to take care of yourself! Let's face it.... we moms are famous for putting ourselves dead LAST! If you are someone that knows exactly what to do to take control of your fitness, but you simply lack the time, the energy, and the motivation to do it -then you are in the right place!
We all know the old saying, "If Momma ain't happy, nobody's happy!" Well, you should really think of it as, "If Momma ain't healthy, nothing gets done!!" You are the backbone of your family and as such, you have to take of yourself! You can't pour from an empty cup..... Just as you can't take care of your family unless you take care of yourself first! If you answered YES to any of the above questions, then you are in the RIGHT place!
I can provide you with the tools that you need to turn EXCUSES into RESULTS!!
Believe me, I know how you feel!! I have been where you are and I have felt all of these things!!
About 6 months after my youngest child was born, I had to have knee surgery and was unable to exercise for an entire year. So, I know how it feels to carry that extra "tire" around your waist feeling like there is nothing that you can do about it! Finally, I decided to quit making excuses and to quit blaming other people for my circumstances and I took ACTION! Be the mom that your kids deserve and the wife that your husband deserves! I have made it my personal mission to help other moms overcome what I have been able to achieve myself. I will share every secret that I have learned along the way to reach my goal of becoming a healthier and happier wife and mom, aka Fit and Happy!
Introducing my #HealthyMom Strong 21 Day Program - 21 Days to a Healthier, Happier YOU!!
I know what it feels like to let mom life take over for so long that one day you look in the mirror and you can no longer see even a trace of that girl that you once were before kids. I have been where you are and I can help! If you desire to make a change and get back to that energetic girl you once were, but you don't know where to start or you don't have the energy or motivation to start.... you are in the RIGHT place!
I will help you find a fitness program to fit your very busy lifestyle, help you develop a meal plan that is easy, convenient, and family friendly, and provide the accountability and support that you need to stick with it long-term! First, you should know that this program is NOT a diet, it is a lifestyle change! The program lasts 21 days under the thought process that it takes 21 days to develop a habit. The goal is that after 21 days, you change your eating habits and exercise habits and make it a lifestyle change rather than considering it to be a diet. I am offering you the tools and support that you need to make a lifestyle change and turn EXCUSES into RESULTS to become #HealthyMom Strong!
Why should you listen to me??
Good question! Let me share my story....
This is where I started...
About 5 years ago, I was in your shoes. After having my third child, I was in a fluke boating accident in which I tore my ACL and LCL. After a year of inactivity and rehab, I had packed on about 30 extra pounds.
I knew that I wanted to get back to that active and fit person I once knew, but nothing that I tried was working... I felt like I was spinning my wheels failing with one diet after another! I knew that my metabolism was completely non-functional and I didn't know what to do to get it to start working for me again!
I felt isolated, unhappy, and depressed. I hated looking at myself in the mirror because I longed to see the woman that I once was in the reflection. I didn't even recognize the woman staring back at me in the mirror and she disgusted me!
I couldn't keep up with my toddler at all. I felt guilty that she wasn't getting to enjoy the healthy and active mom that my older twins had known. Every morning before work, I was constantly changing clothes, trying to find something that looked decent. I had outgrown all of my "cute" clothes and hated buying clothes in a larger size.
My self-confidence was at an all-time low and I was constantly comparing myself to others, which of course would always just make me feel even worse. Even though my husband constantly assured me that I was beautiful to him, I didn't feel beautiful. It was hard for me to feel sexy and desired, which came with its own set of repercussions. I felt like I had a big huge tire around my waist... every time that I bent over or twisted in my desk chair, it was there, constantly reminding me how out of shape that I had become!
I could tell that my poor self-confidence was starting to take a toll on all of my relationships and effect every aspect of my life. I was spiraling deeper and deeper into this pit of depression and felt helpless to do anything to stop this vicious cycle. I was afraid to try yet another program that I knew was not going to work and was just going to leave me feeling even worse about myself. And this was not the example that I wanted to teach to my kids. I had never felt so out of control of my own life and of my emotions.. I was letting FEAR take over.
My struggle....
I felt that with my busy lifestyle and full-time job, that there was just not enough time in the day to exercise. I couldn't seem to let go of the feeling that I had to make sure that all of the kids' needs were met, the laundry was folded, dinner was cooked and the hubby was fed, and the house was clean BEFORE I could take 30 minutes out of the day to do something for myself (like exercise).
I couldn't seem to grasp the fact that I had to take time out for myself and put myself first every once in a while or I was never going to be able to effectively take care of my family. It was easy and convenient to just grab snacks and make unhealthy food choices... I didn't have time to plan healthy meals.
It was hard to take those first baby steps toward change because I felt like nothing that I did was going to help! I was starting to exercise again and was trying my best to eat healthy, but I was not losing any weight... the scale would not budge! I felt like giving up and I couldn't seem to overcome my fear and self-doubt enough to fully trust the process enough and LET IT WORK!
What finally resulted in a change??
A friend told me about the 21 Day Fix program, but I was really skeptical. But, I ordered the program and gave it a try and I am so glad that I did because it has changed my life! This program taught me how to eat the RIGHT foods in the RIGHT portions to fuel my body in such a way that it finally began to do what I so desperately wanted it to do. My metabolism finally came back and started to work for me.
With Shakeology, I was feeding my body the nutrition that it craved, which revved up my metabolism and amplified my results. Additionally, the workouts incorporated light weights, which was totally new to me (as I was always a hard corps cardio junkie). But, the resistance training was the missing link that I really needed to get my metabolism in gear and start melting the fat.
The support and accountability group that I was able to be a part of was another critical piece of the puzzle... this group was my rock that kept me from throwing in the towel when it got hard or sneaking that bag of chips when I got hungry. The accountability, motivation, and support that I received from the group was a game changer for me!
Where am I now?
I lost 25 pounds with the 21 Day Fix Program and am now back at my pre-pregnancy weight. I am now back in my size 8 jeans and wearing my "cute" wardrobe again. I have been able to maintain my weight loss because this program was not a diet for me... it was a lifestyle change!
I am full of energy and am able to keep up with my kids, so much so, that I often leave them in the dust when we go for a jog or a bike ride! I am HAPPY! I feel strong, independent, and empowered. I can lift my own groceries, open my own jars, take charge of any situation, and do 20 push ups on my feet (I could barely do two when I started).
Long gone are the days of feeling isolated or depressed. I feel beautiful, sexy, and desired by my husband and we are like newlyweds again! My increased self-confidence has translated to an improvement in every aspect of my life. I am a better wife, mom, friend, sister, daughter, employee, and person! Oh... and did I say that I was HAPPY?! Fit and Happy... that is my new motto! :)
Is this kind of change possible for you? How does it work??
Absolutely YES!! I am here to tell you that if I can do it, you can do it too!! I promise that this plan really does work! If you stick with it - it works! It is just that simple!

These are three women that I have had the pleasure of helping through my #HealthyMom Strong Program.
And I will be with you every step of the way to motivate and help you to make sure that you stick with it! Simple nutrition and portion control, 30 minutes/day of the right kind of exercise.... Proven results!
But how you ask?? The Healthy Eating Plan shows you how to eat the RIGHT foods in the RIGHT portions. And you need to commit to doing one 30-minute workout per day for 21 days - you can squeeze in 30 minutes! I don't care how busy you are! I will teach you how to give yourself 30 minutes a day to take care of yourself!
This is not a diet or magic pill... it is a lifestyle change! I will give you the tools and support that you need to make the change! I will show you all of the time saving tips and tricks that I learned along the way that you NEED as a busy mom! I will make this simple, easy, and convenient for you to follow. I have made it my personal mission to pay it forward and help other busy moms make a happier life for themselves.

What is Shakeology anyway??
Let me tell you about Shakeology! It contains more vitamins and minerals than a typical multivitamin contains. It also contains superfood ingredients that boost your immune system, aid in digestion, and promote good health by lowering cholesterol and HgbA1c levels. There's more.....It has pro and prebiotics, phytonutrients, antioxidants, and adaptogens in it.
It really has made such a difference for me in the overall way that I feel because it truly feeds my body the nutrition that it needs. Let me add that Shakeology really amplifies your results and helps rid your body of toxins etc.
It goes hand in hand with the 21DF meal plan and counts as a red (protein) container. Meal planning is critical to doing well with the 21DF, so shakeology just makes one of your meals really easy that you don't have to plan or cook for - it's a no brainer!
So, while it does promote weight loss, it is so much more than just a protein meal replacement shake! It actually improves your overall health! That is why I still drink it every day even though I have now lost the weight that I wanted to lose... I love the way it makes me feel each day and I know that it is the healthiest meal that I get every day!!
Let's take a closer look...
The Beachbody On Demand all-access subscription (lasts for a year) with Shakeology challenge pack is the BEST option for you and it is the program that I highly recommend for you to choose! This is an awesome package because you will have access to EVERY single program that Beachbody has ever created EVER for an entire year (plus any new programs that come out for the rest of the year).
One major advantage to this package is that we can set up a workout schedule for you that will actually fit what you can realistically do (and we will have a huge library of programs to choose from to set up a perfect schedule for YOU!). PLUS you will be able to work your way up, so to speak, graduating from one program to the next!
You will NEVER get bored of doing the same old work out day in and day out and you and I can work together to form a work out schedule that you ENJOY, can stick to, and that keeps your body guessing! Changing up your exercise routine often is important because it helps you to avoid muscle adaptation and hitting plateaus.
Beachbody on Demand is very easy and simple to use - it is a digital service that lets you stream workouts directly to a TV, desktop, laptop, tablet, or mobile device, wherever you have an internet connection. With the Beachbody on Demand streaming app, you can also stream directly to their TV using Roku, Amazon Firestick, and Chromecast. That means you'll never miss a workout, because you can take them with you! It allows you to work out anywhere you have an internet connection: at home, at the gym, in a hotel, outdoors, even on vacation.
Let's say that you are a little more old-school and streaming sounds too "techy" and is just not your thing! That is OK! You can still purchase individual program DVD sets. First, let's think about your current fitness level. Are you new to fitness? Have you been working out for a while and just can't seem to find an effective program? Do you need something more challenging? One of these three programs is the perfect fit for you! 21 Day Fix is my personal favorite and the program that allowed me to change my life! All three programs utilize the portion control container nutrition system, so the only difference between the three programs is the level of the fitness workouts.

Testimonials/Success Stories
Mary started drinking Shakeology in hopes of improving her diet and nutrition to the point that she could get off of her cholesterol medication. She takes Crestor and has been experiencing side effects with this medication. After only 3 months of adding Shakeology to her lifestyle, she was able to reduce her total cholesterol from 229 to 160 and her LDL (bad) cholesterol from 150 to 90. Her doctor decreased her dose and she eventually was able to come off her medication!
Maria is my good friend and co-worker and in combination with Shakeology, she completed 21 Day Fix Extreme. At the time of this photo, she was about to finish up Tony Horton's 22 Minute Hard Corps! Maria lost 15 pounds and reduced her total cholesterol from 220 to 155 in just 3 months! She worked hard and her results were phenomenal and well deserved! More importantly, her doctor was about to put her on medication for cholesterol, but she pleaded with him for one more chance to do it on her own... And look what she has accomplished! Needless to say, her doctor was thrilled, did not start her on medication and told her to keep drinking that Shakeology!!
After Sharon started drinking Shakeology and using the 21 Day Fix nutrition plan, she made huge and significant impacts on her overall health with this lifestyle change! She reduced her total cholesterol from 253 to 160 and her HgbA1c from 8.4% to 7.0%
Sharon says, "I was hesitant to try 21 day fix because of all the medicines I'm on and the fact that that nothing I had tried was giving me the results I needed. But I was willing to try based on what you had told me was happening to other people's health. Now that I see the labs in black and white I have a whole different level of encouragement. I know now that changes are happening that I can't see and I just need to be patient for the ones that I can see. You were so excited and I couldn't say no to you. I didn't have anything to lose by trying it out and I hoped that what you and Amy were saying would actually work. I posted my labs in front of my face at work to remind me that cutting out the vending machine , blizzards, cook out milkshakes,and diet mountain dew,etc is ok. 😎"
