Challenge groups

Tomorrow is the start of my first challenge group! I am so excited to share a sneak peek into the fantastic community I have become a part of. I had 15 people join, which I think is a good number considering I opened up 20 spots and there is still to the end of the day.

A challenge group is really what kept me motivated while doing workouts at home and they still do. Seeing everyone encouraging each other and posting their own struggles and achievements. Giving pointers, tips and new ideas. Being able to have a place to go when the people in real life judge your journey or make comments (unfortunately that will happen).

And when that does happen, brush aside those negative comments and remember why you have decided to take this journey, FOR YOU! To make your life better, to be a better person, to encourage your family, to just be a better you all around. Because that's what's going to happen.

And if anyone wants join me on this journey (along with a whole bunch of other driven people) I will have a new challenge group every month!

Even though it doesn't seem like a choice , we all have to make money right? But it is. We could be a bum. We could be homeless. Of course, nobody really lets it get that far. I mean yes, there are homeless people. And people that are in really bad circumstances. But I believe we have all been through trying times, poor conditions, and terrible circumstances. And it's all about how we choose for it to affect us. Are we going to lie down and let that truck run us over? Or are we going to get moving and move out of the darn way? I think that the majori...

The Shake

When I signed up to be a coach I didn't really plan to use Shakeology. I had never tried it before and I really was just so sold by the workouts that I didn't think buying the shakes would really add that much more to my new lifestyle. But it all kind of came with the territory and I thought I may as well give them a try to see what they were like. I ordered the cafe latte, because according to research I had done that flavor along with chocolate was their biggest sellers. And I like coffee. It came quicker than expected and I was super excited to try it. It was a little strong on flavor. The first mixture I tried was using just unsweetened almond milk and I've now been adding water along with that to cut down the strong flavor. I sometimes add oats, frozen bananas, mint extract (careful with this one, a drop or two will do. I learned that the hard way) or peanut butter. But there are loads of recipes if you search around. ...
