The advantages of having a Coach:

 100% support. Knowing someone has your back when you're having a bad day.

 Having someone to go to when you have a question, or are struggling to find motivation. 

Accountability. This is and was a big one for me. It's easy to not workout, or eat right, when the only person expecting to hear about it, are ourselves. 

Someone taking the time to get to know you - finding out what you struggle with, and what you excel at. Coaches help you find a way to overcome your struggles, and celebrate your success'!

We share our tips, and recipes for amazing food, and reaching goals. What has worked for us, and what hasn't. 

And so much more!

A Day of Healthy Eats

As I mentioned in my last Results post, I struggled with eating right 100% of the time, which I think is completely normal. I was at about 50%. Now, I'd say I'm at about 80% ... working my way to 90% ( I have to have my cheat meals! ) Which I want to keep to 1 meal a week, for now. At least while I'm in the "in it to win it" ... well..."in it to lose it" would be more fitting. I took pix all day today to show how I'm eating ... I'll post more each week.

                                                Breakfast ........

Vegan Tropical Strawberry Shakeology! This is both Mine & my Husband's. We're not Vegan, so I used - 10 oz of low fat Milk, 4 oz of Strawberry Activia Yogurt, 1 Banana, and 1 Scoop of Shakeology, then we spilt it, as you see here! It was soo yummie!! As a matter of fact, I don't know that I'll make it the rest of the night without having another!

Snack............

That's my water that I carry with me at all times! If it's not this, it's in my big ol' Shaker Cup! I keep it within Arm's reach at all times, and keep it full ... You'll never see an empty container sitting next to me. When you keep water in something next to you, you will "mindlessly" drink. Kind of like that "mindless" snacking that will get us in trouble .. if it's the wrong snack! Also, green grapes! I LOVE these! I had these as a snack twice today! After breakfast, and after lunch! 

Speaking of Lunch ............

This is scrambled eggs with a little cheese, Turkey on the bottom, wrapped in a Whole Wheat Tortilla. I also added hot sauce after I took the pic. My hubby had the same thing, only he had his on Whole Wheat Bread, he doesn't care for the Tortilla. I also had grapes to go with this too - Yea, I was digging the grapes today (;

Dinner ..........

3 oz of boneless ( lean ) Rosemary Pork Chop, Rosemary Oven Roasted Red Potatoes, and Purple Hull Peas, with a little raw Onion to go with the Peas ( it's a Southern Thing ) (; 

For the Pork Chop, I seasoned it with Kosher Salt, Rosemary, Onion Powder, and Cracked Black Pepper, and put them in the Iron Skillet ( I ADORE my Iron Skillet! ) with 2 TBS Olive Oil I cooked them on high at first to get them going, then turned them way down so the flavors could caramelize - YUM

For the Potatoes, I drizzled a little Olive Oil, and sprinkled them with Kosher Salt and Cracked Black Pepper and roasted them in the oven on 400 till they were soft.

It was AMAZINGLY good!! You def don't have to have unhealthy food, to have delicious food! You just have to find other ways to make it yummie! Herbs & Seasonings are a MUST ( just be careful with salt )

I hope you enjoy these recipes if you try them! And if you'd like to learn more about Shakeology or get your own Click Here

Results - Chapter One!

After a round of P90X, during which I struggled to eat right, I still seen some pretty great results. I did manage to eat right more times than not, but sometimes!! ... I'm sure we've all experienced those moments! But, we keep moving forward, making better choices everyday. I seen the biggest changes in my first 30 days, after that, I seen amazing changes in strength, and endurance ... energy, and just over all feeling great!! Here are my first set of results .........

I learned that I can do things that seem IMPOSSIBLE! I surprised myself so many times with new found strength, the ability to go longer, and faster, and harder. The first time I was able to make it through Plyometrics ... I was on top of the world!!  I felt soo accomplished! The energy I have now is incredible! I can chase my kids ( 4 & 1 ) around, without getting tired in the first 10 minutes! After a hard workout, I still had enough energy to chase them through the house, taking turns with one of them on my shoulders! There is nothing like hearing the giggling and laughing of your kids, and "This is fun, Mommy!!" I absolutely LOVE it!

Now, the first week of P90X was so hard! I was sore ( but not as sore as I could be!! ) I'll tell you how I kept from being so sore in a minute! The only time I wasn't sore, was DURING my workouts! So don't think, "I'm too sore to workout today, I'm going to have to skip" You don't!! Just get up, press Play! I promise you'll feel great!! Unless you have really injured yourself, then you should defiantly consult your Doc and heal! Now, on to how I kept from being so sore .............

This is my P90X Results & Recovery Drink!! It is AMAZING!! It helps your muscles recover quicker! Plus, it tastes incredible!! Those Orange Sorbet Push Ups? Yep! That's what this tastes like! You can even make Popsicles out of these ( which I haven't done yet ) to have after your workout! I like mine in a Shaker Cup, with TONS of ice to make it icy cold! 

Another amazing thing I have added to my line up is Energy & Endurance! It's Beachbody's new Pre-Workout Formula, that helps give you the Energy & Endurance ( hence the name! ) to power you through your workouts!  There is also NO JITTERS at all! I describe it as a great 2nd wind to start your workout with! It tastes great as well! Lemon Lime!

So, whats next for me? ..............

Along with .........

New Vegan Tropical Strawberry Shakeology!! This tastes like a Strawberry Milkshake!!

I start Insanity tomorrow, March 13th! I'm ready to Dig Deep, and be ready for Bikini Season!

Military Coach FAQs


What is the Beachbody® Military program for our Independent Team 
Beachbody® Coaches?


Beachbody is excited to offer this great program for our Coaches who are 
actively serving in our military. If you are an active member of the military and 
newly enrolling as a Beachbody Coach, the cost of your business starter kit 
($39.95) and your monthly business service fee will be waived for the duration of 
your active duty orders. If you are already a Beachbody Coach and on active 
duty, your monthly business service fee will be waived for the duration of your 
active duty orders. In either case, if your active orders have no stated end date, 
your business service fee will be waived for a minimum of two years.


I'm a Beachbody Coach and I've got friends in the military who would like to 
enroll as an Independent Team Beachbody Coach. What's my next step?


It's always a great idea to share as much information about this opportunity with 
your prospective Coach prior to their enrollment. Giving them a chance to 
review more about being a Coach can help ensure they're well-informed. Once 
they've decided to join our Coach network, you'll want them to complete the 
Coach application, and submit the completed Coach application, together 
with a copy of their active duty orders, to our Coach Relations team for further 
review and processing. Paperwork may be submitted to our secure fax at (213) 
201-7225 or by email to coachrelations@teambeachbody.com. If we need any 
further information to verify a new Coach's active duty status, we will reach out 
to them directly.


I'm active military and I'd like to become an Independent Team Beachbody 
Coach. How do I enroll?


Please complete the Coach application, and submit the completed Coach 
application, together with a copy of your active duty orders or any suitable 
verification of your active duty status to our Coach Relations team for further 
review and processing. Paperwork may be submitted to our secure fax at (213) 
201-7225 or by email to coachrelations@teambeachbody.com. If we need any 
further information to verify a new Coach's active duty status, we will reach out 
to you directly.


Both my spouse and I are active military. May we both enroll as Independent 
Team Beachbody Coaches and have our fees waived?


Yes, if you and your spouse are both active military, you may each enroll as an 
Independent Team Beachbody Coach, and each of you is eligible to have your 
basic enrollment fee of $39.95 and your monthly business service fee waived.
Both of you will need to complete our Coach application and submit the 
application along with the verification of your active status.


I'm active duty military however my spouse would like to enroll as an Independent Team Beachbody Coach. Is this possible?


Yes, absolutely. If you are active duty military and are not a Beachbody Coach, 
your spouse is welcome to take advantage of this benefit. If your spouse is 
enrolling as a Coach rather than you, your spouse will need to submit a copy of 
your active duty orders or other suitable paperwork, in order to qualify for this 
waiver. In this particular case, the name on the Coach account will be the 
enrolling spouse.


I'm active duty military. Can anyone other than my spouse enroll as a Coach 
based on my status?


No. As an active member of the military, either you or your spouse may enroll as 
an Independent Team Beachbody Coach to take advantage of this waiver of 
standard fees. If you and your spouse both wish to enroll as Independent Team 
Beachbody Coaches, and only one of you is an active member of the military, 
only one of you would qualify to have your standard enrollment fee of $39.95 
and your monthly business service fee waived.


I'm active duty military and I'm already an Independent Team Beachbody 
Coach. What's next for me?


Please submit a copy of your active duty orders or other suitable verification of 
your active duty status, (feel free to use the Coach Application Fax Cover page 
available HERE) to our Coach Relations team. Upon further verification of your 
active duty status, we will waive your monthly business service fee for the 
duration of your active duty orders. Please note that your initial business starter kit 
charges are not eligible to be refunded.


What do you mean when you say I have to be active duty military to qualify for 
this benefit? 


At the time you submit your Coach application, we will also need you to include 
a copy of your active duty orders or other suitable verification of your status, 
from your branch of service. Your active duty orders will likely include a start and 
end date. Based upon the end date given, your monthly business service fee will 
be waived during that time period. If you are reassigned to active duty at a later 
date please contact our Coach Relations team for further instructions.


If you have more extensive questions regarding whether or not you are eligible 
for this program, please contact our Compliance department at:
