Nutrition & Fitness

...Here are the secrets boys and girls.. 
This is how I turned my life around and began the journey towards being the best ME I can BE :)

Shakeology! 
The healthiest meal of my day = a CHOCOLATE SHAKE...does it GET any better?
Try it for 30 days and if you're not 100% Satisfied you get your MONEY BACK! 
That's how good it is :)
Okay so this is honestly the FOUNDATION for complete health. If your feeling like you're not QUITE ready for an extreme workout program.. I 100% recommend you start right HERE!  Shakeology will KICK START your weight loss before you even begin your workouts.. On top of that, it will provide you with the ENERGY to take the plunge and get your butt moving :) 


One shake/day in place of a meal...and believe me you do NOT go hungry.  This thing is packed with super foods that not only leave you feeling STUFFED but also leaves you with so much energy it feels like a cup of coffee.  Speaking of, I challenge YOU to replace your Starbucks "breakfast" or your daily Diet Cokes with Shakeology. It's the same price (or cheaper) and you will feel 100% better!  This is why...


Not only does this work as a perfect meal replacement, it makes for a FANTASTIC cleanse!  After 60 days of P90X, I hit a weight loss plateau and there was NO busting through it.  I asked my coach at the time and she recommended a Shakeology cleanse.  What did this entail? 3 days on my recovery week, 3 shakes a day and a salad with protein.  I'll admit it was tough..but in those three days I dropped 5 pounds!  um HELLO?! Seriously? My body was holding on to a lot of GUNK and Shakeology managed to clean me right up and jumpstart my weight loss again :) In the final 30 days of P90x I not only KEPT that weight off... I lost 5 more pounds!       Shakeology Cleanse = Miracle Worker


*let me know if you're interested in a cleanse, I have packages available that aren't online :)


Thank you Kati Heifner for explaining the cleanse PERFECTLY...here are the details :)


What makes the Shakeology Cleanse stand apart from the others is that the Shakeology cleanse is not a true "cleanse". The Shakeology Cleanse is a calorie restricted, nutrient rich cleanse. There are no strange drinks made of maple and lemon or apple cider. With Shakeology you will be satisfied and you won't be a zombie or feel like you are starving your body of vital nutrients, because you aren't! The main point of the Shakeology Cleanse is not calorie restriction but nutrient richness. The aim is to get the most nutrients into your body with the fewest calories consumed. These calories are to fuel your workouts and rid the body of toxins and hydration into homeostasis. The result with this cleanse to have your body run more efficiently and the weight loss is just an added benefit that most experience (you can lose anywhere from 3lbs to 10lbs in just 3 days!!).


The Benefits of the Shakeology 3-Day-Cleanse:


  • Rid your body of fat
  • Detoxify your body
  • Jump start your weight loss and fitness routine
  • Body rejuvenation

How does the Shakeology Cleanse work?

With the Shakeology Cleanse your daily food structure remains close to the same as you’re everyday eating. You will still be eating every few hours with meals that are balanced and nutrient rich which will make up for consuming fewer calories. This means that you can still continue with your workout routine. Adding fruits, nuts, seeds, and the Shakeology fiber supplement can be done as you see fit. Your one solid meal a day, your salad, can also contain fruits, nuts, and seeds, legumes, and veggies along with four ounces or less of a white protein. The point is to keep you satiated and to avoid anything that is artificial - including your salad dressing. The Shakeology Cleanse is designed to optimize your body’s performance. You want to have enough food to fuel your day and your workout. By eating foods that are high in fiber and nutrients it is virtually impossible to overeat. With the high fiber, digestive aids, and enzymes, your body will be ridding itself of excess food and fat and flushing out waste.



P90X
I love love LOVE this workout...incredible results EVERY time!
Alright so I'll be the first to admit...I'd seen the infomercials..I'd laughed at the infomercials..but really I had always been curious about this program.  BUT I was TERRIFIED!  It wasn't until I realized that there were REAL people out there with REAL results from this baby that I finally convinced myself "Hey..they can do it.. I can do it!" and more than that I DESERVE THIS

I had struggled through college trying to find time to get dressed, get to the gym, workout, get home, get ready and THEN get to class, work, homework etc... So this was the PERFECT solution.  Ladies and gentlemen, There's no excuses if the DVD is right there in your room! I figured if I could stare at my computer blindly at Facebook for an hour on my futon, I could DEFINITELY get OFF that futon and get the best workout of my life in!  And guess what else?! You are GUARANTEED results if you stick with it (that's my job ;) ) That's WAY more than you can say for a treadmill or elliptical at the gym!

I dare you, give it a try!

The same program the Victoria's Secret Models use to tighten and tone their tush :)
Another program I swear and live by is Brazil Butt Lift!  This program works WONDERS and is really customizable and FUN...not to mention it's only a 4 week program with HUGE results.. Check out what six weeks did to these lovely ladies :)
