Does PCOS Get Me Down?

Does my PCOS ever get me down? Ummm...All the time! I have to work hard and plow through the emotions 😭 and hormones 😢 that over come my moods and undermine healthy habits 🍎 all the time. Its not always easy for me. The one constant that gets me through is Jesus. I pray 🙇 and read my Bible 📖 and He reminds me how strong I can be and motivates me to keep going. He reminds me I don't have to be perfect. I just have to keep working on me and stop STRESSING out because stress undermines every positive thing He provides.

Post workout snacks that you should avoid

Had a great workout today? Feeling like the extra pounds are finally coming off? Perfect! But that rigorous exercise probably made you hungry enough to eat your entire refrigerator! So, what did you do? Did you reach for the first thing you saw in the pantry or fridge? Did you carefully plan out what you were going to eat? Chances are you may have chosen the wrong post workout snack. Eating after your workout is as equally important as fueling up before hand, but you don’t want to reach for just anything! What you put into your body after you workout has a major effect on your weight loss goals! If you’re eating the wrong foods post workout, you’ll be sure to cancel out all of the work you just put in exercising! After that tough workout, be sure to avoid these foods after your sweat session! ·          Raw Veggies : Raw vegetables are among the healthiest and most nutritious foods you can eat, they aren’t exactly the rig...

New Beginnings!!

I can’t believe that an entire year has passed by already! This time last year I had just returned from Beachbody’s Coach Summit in Vegas. I had a wonderful time, but was feeling really emotional during my whole trip. I chalked it up to all the excitement at Summit, and blew off the fact that I maybe pregnant again. Being pregnant again was too scary a thought at that moment in time, since I had just had a miscarriage a few short months earlier. That was one of the hardest things I have ever been through emotionally. There are just no words to describe it, unless you have gone through it. With all new beginnings it is nice to have a fresh start. So I started off with the doing Beachbody’s new cleanse, “The Ultimate Reset”. With the miscarriage behind me, I came to the conclusion that I really did want to have children again, even if the age spacing wasn’t going to be like we had anticipated. We never thought we would end up with a 10 year age gap!! YOWSA!!  I decided t...

Pregnancy Journey

Since starting on my pregnancy journey 3 1/2 months ago, I have experienced a lot of ups and downs physically. With my first pregnancy I was tired, however I never really had any negative issues with food.  This time around (although I am thankful for not being so physically ill that I had to throw up) I have experienced NON- STOP NASEAU!! YUCK!! Which for someone who's like me and like to eat has been difficult to deal with.  The first trimester I could not find anything to really settle my stomach. I tried all food, good and bad and nothing seemed to help. I was beginning to wonder if this would go on through the duration of my pregnancy, but thankfully as I entered the 2nd trimester I have been blessed with a new settled tummy!! Yay!! Now that I am in the 2nd trimester, not only is my tummy feeling better, but now I have more energy as well!! I am so happy to be able to workout again! Although I am not really interested in doing the harder workouts I once did pre-preg...

Stay True to YOU!!

In life there are low maintenance people and there are high maintenance people. We need to be around people that support us as much as we support them. Finding a relationship where you can truly trust someone is hard but very important. You want to be with people like you who are dreamers that want more out of life. Thi nk of it like you are putting together a team. People don't realize the type of people they are hanging out with until they start having some success. There will be people in your life who will say you are changing but they have no desire for more or to change and grow in their own lives. They are uncomfortable watching you grow because it points out the lack of growth and effort in their own lives. There is nothing you can do about the people in your life who don't want to change. The important thing is not to let them hold you back. As you make new relationships, be mindful of the people you choose to spend your time with. Do the people you spe...

Coach Summit 2012

Coach Summit 2012 was in Vegas this year! This was one of the BEST experiences I have ever had. Surrounded by positive people all doing their best to help others and end the trend of obesity! It was AWESOME!  Beachbody totally spoiled us all! We got to stay at the MGM Grand! Attended all sorts of seminars where we learned a lot. And the parties they threw were wonderful! If you have the passion for helping others, there is NO better job then being a Beachbody COACH! I can't say enough about how important it is to surround yourself with positive people! Positive people make the difference in how you view the world and how successful you become. Before Beachbody I never saw myself as a business woman. Heck I never thought I could attain much! But through my time with them Beachbody I have been inspired to be more and do more with my life then I ever thought I could! They are truly inspirational! The highlight of the weekend was watching a good friend of mine win $100,000!!! R...

Change your Perspective!

Ever feel like no matter what you do or try, nothing seems to work out well? Or things end up in disaster? I used to feel this way about life. Unfortunately the way I viewed life at that time was pretty skewed toward the negative, so that is what I was blinded by. Thankfully things have changed!!! What I have found most important in all situations is to ask myself questions. When I think things are not going well, I try to stop and close my eyes. Making a new mental picture of what is going on around me and then asking some important questions. For example, "Is there something I am supposed to be learning at this moment?"..."Are my expectations out of whack?"...."Am I giving this all my effort?"..."Am I quitting too early?"...."Am I allowing old "Head Trash" to get in my way?"...."Am I blowing this situation out of proportion or taking something a bit too seriously?"  No matter the situation, there are always ple...

Lose weight and get fit!

Is there a difference between losing weight and getting fit? Absolutely!! When you really stop to think about it you need both in order to achieve success!! At this point you maybe scratching your head and thinking that losing weight and getting fit are the same thing. But honestly they are NOT!! We just want everything to be simple, so we don't have to work hard or give anything up. So it is easier to lump losing weight and getting fit into the same category. The term getting FIT really takes place in the GYM. You are toning your muscles and helping to raise your metabolism so that you can burn more fat at a faster rate. Ultimately becoming stronger. But can you truly do all your work in the gym? No, not really! If you continue with bad eating habits and stop at the fast food joints, eat sugary snacks, or eat "dead food" regularly (food from a box, over processed, additives...) you are really putting your potential success on hold. Basically you are confusing the hec...
