A few of my Favs!

I wanted to share a few of my Favs with ya'll! ...

My husband brought these home to me a couple nights ago. They're Whole Wheat, and Dill! Seriously? What could be better! They're so amazing and I'm sad my hubby forgot to stop and get more for my snacks.

Sweet Potato Fries! Slice them up, drizzle with a little Olive Oil, roast them on about 450 in the oven, sprinkle with a little kosher salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper! Heaven! 

I LOVE Hot Sauce!! I eat it on almost everything! Including my next fav ...

Oven Fried Chicken!! Who needs a deep fryer when you have an oven?! Marinate your chicken for at least an hour, then add some whole wheat bread crumbs, season your bread crumbs ( I like a little salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder ) and pop them in the oven!

Roasted Cauliflower! Olive Oil and a little Paprika, roast on 450 for about 15 minutes or so, till they're tender and slightly golden, sprinkle with a little fresh Parm while they're still pipin hot!

Who doesn't LOVE a Grilled, perfectly seasoned Steak?! Ok, I know some people don't, but I do!

Fresh Dill!! I sprinkle it on everything when I have it! I can not wait till I have some fresh out of our garden! I even eat it by its self! Speaking of Fresh out of the Garden ...

There is nothing better than walking through my Garden and Harvesting all my yummie , beautiful Veggies! And turning them into salads, and canning them!

I love this! Mix it with some Fat Free Sour cream, and have a couple TBS of it with my Veggies! Mmmmm!!

I ADORE my P90X Results & Recovery Formula! It tastes AAMAZING and helps me to not be so sore! It's ONE of the things I LOVE about working out - I get to have this after!

My current Program!! I'm in love with Insanity! Yes, it's hard, but my body craves it and I have had some amazing results!! Down 12 lbs in one month in combo with eating right, which includes ....

My Vegan Tropical Shakeology!! It's Nutrient packed with 70+ High Quality Ingredients! It has improved my energy, my mood, my weight, and I just feel amazing when I drink it.

Energy & Endurance! This helps me push harder in my workouts, and gives me the boost I need! No Crashing or jitters! Just add a scoop to about 6 oz of water about 15-30 minutes before my workout, and I'm good to go!

P90X! This is where my Journey began! It's an amazing program, and I gained so much strength! And who doesn't love Tony Horton?! He's hilarious and makes it fun to workout!

So, there yah have it. A few of my Favs! What are some of your favorite things?

Insanity "Recovery" Week

So, Today starts the "Recovery" week of Insanity, before I move into the CRAZY INSANE "Results Month". I have already lost 12 lbs, between Insanity, and Shakeology!! I absolutely love the results I'm getting, and am excited to see what the next Month brings!

I think I might want to do another Round after this! I was going to move on to Tai Cheng ( Tai Chi ), but depending on how far I get with month 2, I may want another round to reach some goals! My favorite thing about Insanity is how fast and fun it is. There's no getting bored at all! If I'm on a treadmill ... I get bored and get off. But with this, I'm having fun the whole way through! And just when I feel like I can't possibly get up and go more, I do! I have come so far in my energy and endurance. I also recover faster. At first, the 30 second breaks seemed soo short! Now, I grab a drink of water, and am ready to get right back in it. I've had an increase in strength too! This might sound silly, but I want to share a little story with ya'll here. ..

My husband used to be a Union Electrician, so he has this Metal Tool Box FULL of tools. I mean, like 5 or 6 different things of each type of tool...pliars..screw drivers...a hand saw...and I don't even know what else. The thing weighs like 60 lbs! Before I started working out back in October ( p90x ), it was all I could do just to move the thing. Danny ( Hubby ) always got a kick out of saying, "pick that thing up" and watching me grunt and whine about how heavy it was. Well, Easter Sunday, we were at his mom's and a friend of his had borrowed his tool box, and then dropped it off there when he was finished. When we were getting ready to leave, we were gathering gifts, kids, a high chair, and the tool box. Danny asked his mom to help me because I had our youngest on one hip, and was going to grab the high chair, and he said "I know I'm the only one able to carry this" talking about his tool box. I took it as a challenge ( haha! ) and I was like here, let me do it. So I picked it up with one hand and started toward our truck with it. I couldn't believe it!! And neither could he! He followed me, carrying the high chair saying "Look at you!!" I carried it all the way up the hill to our truck with our youngest on my other hip! And then set it up in the bed of our truck! I felt soo good about that! To feel how much my strength has improved is just an amazing feeling!! I wasn't even out of breath! After Insanity, everything else just feels EASY!  Nothing like that feeling!

So there's my little Mini Success Story! Just a small entry in the BIG Story I'm writing! I hope ya'll will stay tuned and follow my Journey! And if you want to join me, I can help you get started writing YOUR own Success Story!

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

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

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,

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.

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

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
