21 Day Fix Results

21 Day Fix Results





Let me start by saying... I know how hard it is to stick with a healthy eating plan and workout schedule. I had tried countless times to make it through just the first 7 days of this program but I would fail each time. I actually bought it when it first came out in Feb 2014. I was pumped! I thought my eating would just fall into place, I would keep up with the workouts and voila! I would be skinnier and healthier! Boy was I wrong! When I had a slip up or missed a workout I would just stop and say "I'll start again next Monday". What I didn't realize at the time was that I needed to change my entire mindset. I needed to prepare to actually change my old habits into healthy new ones. So what did I do?

I Stated my weight loss goals out loud


For me, I talked with my mother and one of my best friends. I told them my intentions, how much I was going to lose and how I was going to do it. This made it more real for me. Now people knew what I was doing and I felt like I needed to stay accountable.

I wrote out my meal plan
Now, I have done this before but this time I posted my meal plan right smack dab in the middle of the wall in my kitchen. I put pens close to it so I could cross off the foods as I ate them. It worked! Before I would open the fridge I would always check and see what I would be getting. That way I knew what I was going in there for, instead of looking around and making my mind wander.




Got involved with a network of like-minded friends

This is where online monthly challenge groups come into play. They provide support, meal planning, tips, how to deal with emotional eating, cravings, eating out, motivation and so much more! All while being involved in a private Facebook group online. We hold each other accountable and lift each other up when tough days come (they are bound to happen).  We create lasting friendship with people who are all working towards the same goals.

I realized that I NEEDED to do this for me! No more excuses! So I can become healthy for my family and teach them to also live healthy. To have energy to run around with my kids and live the best life I can. The way God intended it to be. I give all the credit to Him. I have been strengthening my relationship with God for the past few months and it has changed my life & He has given me strength!




I have learned that even if I have a slip up...the most important thing is to KEEP MOVING FORWARD & NEVER GIVE UP. I am certain that I will sometimes have bad days, struggles, and times that I want to give up... But I wont let those things stop me anymore! I CAN do this & You CAN do this too! You just need to focus like I did and figure out your "why". I am super excited with my 10.4lb weight loss in the past 3 weeks with the 21dayfix & can't wait to start my next challenge group in July! We will be doing the new workout program PIYO!!!!  Its a low impact, upbeat version of Pilates and Yoga. I'm very excited about it!! If you can relate to any of this... Or are looking for a positive change in your life... Feel free to message me.. I would love to chat! We can and WILL do this together!!

Getting Back in the Game

Getting Back in the Game
 
 
After the release of the "21 Day Fix" program, I came to a standstill. I let my emotions take over and determine what I ate, when I worked how and how I felt. If you are anything like me, you may have felt this way before. Discouraged, upset and distracted. For some reason I just could NOT get into the groove of things. I would do a couple workouts and then just stop. Then I would start eating whatever I felt like...which lead to me just feeling worse. I knew I had to do something, but what? I knew what I was supposed to be doing, so why couldn't I just do it? Things were going well in my life. Work was good, family was good..so what was different??..then it hit me. My thought process was kind of on the negative side. Thinking things like "At least this program is 21 days" or "When this is over, I'm going to eat whatever I want". I definitely want to make this whole experience a positive LIFESTYLE change, not "just for now" change.

Anyway, I had to think of something to do, something that would change my thoughts, my outlook on life, and have a positive impact. So I turned to God. I've always had a relationship with God for as long as I could remember, but I knew  I needed to devote more time to Him, really talk to Him and start building a closer relationship with Him.  I ordered "The purpose Driven Life" book off of amazon and anxiously awaited its arrival. All I can say is WOW this book is awesome. It helped to rekindle my relationship with Jesus and see everything in a totally different way. I now look at situations and think "Would the Lord be proud of me for doing this, acting this way, thinking this". For me, this is a much happier way to live. I feel more alive when I'm with my family and excited to wake up in the mornings and see what the day shall bring!
 
 
So this was my "ah-ha" moment.  LIFE IS A GIFT. We must treat it that way. I plan to take advantage of every moment that God has planned for me. I have struggled with food addiction for so long that I know that I cannot do it alone. I pray about it every morning. I am on day 14 of the 21 day fix and couldn't be happier with my results! So far I have lost 8 lbs and cannot wait to share with you next week what the end results are! I feel more energized, my skin has cleared up, I can stay outside in the heat playing with the kids without feeling sick, I feel full & satisfied after eating & most importantly I feel GOOD about myself for the first time in a long time!!
I know what its like to mess up on a "diet", to start and then give up, to think you could never do that, to not feel good about yourself. But, you don't have to feel that way. Not anymore! I want you to come join my team! To work with me one-on-one and have unlimited support. We can do this together! We can end this trend and work towards a healthy, happier brand new you!! I would love to hear from you with comments, questions, suggestions, anything!! Contact me anytime! I would looove to chat! Or find me on facebook!!!
