Ultimate Reset Spring Cleaning!

When the Beachbody Ultimate Reset came out in 2012 & I watched everyday for 21 days as my friends & fellow coaches went through their first round, I knew I needed to do this. I told Tom all about it & his reaction to me was that we would NEVER go Vegan! Well, I knew chances were we would not stay vegan, but I wanted to try the detox for several reasons, weight loss wasn't really one of them either. I was desperate to change my relationship with FOOD! I needed some extreme structure to help me out. In all my efforts to eat clean etc, I still needed to make some bigger changes.

After seeing people results & hearing about their experiences, it took me a few months but hubby finally agreed to do it with me. We are a team. There was no way that I would want to do it alone, besides it's way more cost effective if we are eating the same foods.

So I made the purchase of two Ultimate Reset kits & we read all the materials & started our plan of prepping & packing food. Since he was working the graveyard shift we needed to prep & pack all of his food. We were up for the challenge!

The end results were Tom kicking his 2-3 per night Energy drink habit. Currently it's been 14 months since he has had one. We both dropped our cholesterol in a major way & shed some unwanted body fat as well. Check out the pics for details on weight loss & cholesterol numbers. We also picked up some great habits & recipes that we eat on a regular basis.

We did another round in January 2014 just to Reset our bodies & start off the new year in a great way! This time around the prep was much faster & easier since we were familiar with the process already.
We have decided this is something we would do once per year.

Right now the Beachbody Ultimate Reset challenge pack is on sale for a great price!! There is a HUGE support group starting on April 16th. This group will include Carl & Isabel Daikeler as well! When you purchase a Challenge Pack & join a support group full of people doing the same program as yourself you benefit in so many ways. Questions being answered 24/7, experiences being shared constantly, support of one another, motivation to stay strong. People who join a challenge/support group have a much higher success rate!

If you are interested in joining this group & making some big changes in your health, let me know & we can talk details to see if this is a good fit for you!

Why YOU should give Beachbody Coaching a try!

Why?? Um, WHY NOT?!?!?!

I mean, REALLY, what is the number one reason you don't give it a try??

Fear? Fear of Failure? Fear of Rejection? Fear of Change? Fear of Success?

Is it your fitness level? Not to your GOAL weight or fitness level?

Is it money?

Is it time?

Seriously, it's time to get rid of the EXCUSES, because that is all those are!! You are the one standing in your own way!

A Beachbody Coach does NOT have to be in the best shape of their life. There is NO requirement that says this, anywhere! It is an assumption! All you need to be is committed to YOURself, YOUR health & YOUR fitness. Being able to share with other people about your daily struggles & accomplishments is very therapeutic & rewarding at the same time.

A Beachbody Coach does not need to "have" money & by "have" I mean the definition of when people assume you just have expendable cash to purchase the products & resell, as with most every other Direct Sales Business. That is an uneducated ridiculous assumption. There are a very large percentage of successful coaches who scraped their money together to purchase their challenge pack so they could sign up as a coach for FREE. People who used credit cards when they had no money in the bank. People who literally lived in their cars. People who didn't even have a computer at home & had to go next door to the neighbors house to sign up. These people did NOT let the excuses control their lives any longer. I didn't have the time or the money or the confidence when I signed up. Heck I flat out told my coach that I didn't want to promote anything like she did. And guess what? I didn't have to, when I posted about my first 30 days with P90X, people wanted the same results. This company sells itself! There is a reason that Beachbody has the number 1 rated infomercials on T.V.... because they work! This is not a quick fix for you to sell your friends. This is the opportunity that could CHANGE THEIR LIFE! This is the opportunity that could change YOUR LIFE!
Besides the fact that Beachbody offers a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee, why wouldn't you want to invest in your health. We all know that America is NOT happy with the new Health Insurance situation, so how about some Preventative care to avoid long term care you cannot afford in the future??

Make the Commitment, Reap the 21 Day Fix results.

Hi! I just wanted to give an update on the results from my first Test group for the 21 Day Fix.

My experience with round 1 was great! My total weight loss was 4lbs & I lost 4 inches all over. To some, that may not seem like much, but keep in mind that we are all on our own journey. We do not all have the same amount of weight to lose nor do we have the same goals. As for the nutrition, I realized I was eating too many portions of fruit a day, not enough vegetables & too much healthy fats. My nutrition has been a journey in itself! I have done so many "diets" & "ways of eating" but once starting with Beachbody & doing my OWN research with Clean eating & healthier alternatives I have been able to cut out a lot of bad shit. Not to say I don't ever indulge but it's just not as often. So to say that my nutrition is spot on about 85-90% of the time is perfect. Clearly it shows in the results I have obtained over 2 years but now I am looking for that next level of results & the 21 Day Fix is my answer!!! Being able to just fill a colored container with a certain food group & dump it on my plate has been so easy & it has helped me to combine food groups in my meals so that I am getting a little bit of everything & not ending up at dinner with all vegetable portions to eat, lol. 

I am currently on round 2 with my husband. He lost about 6lbs in round 1. 

Check out what the other challengers in our group are experiencing:

Nikki C:  I'm in day 11 of the first round.

I have only lost around 2 lbs
I've lost 1.25 off my waist and a little more than .75 off my hips. 
My "muffin top" is almost completely gone. My shirts skim my tummy. They no longer cling to it
I learned that I was eating healthy but my portion sizes were way off
Like always I love shakeo but I was mixing it with 12 oz almond milk which I didn't know counted as carbs. Now I drink it with water and it's STILL good!

Rhonda: Just hopped on the scale and another 3 pounds gone! So excited!

Shawn: Today is day 10! I haven't posted an update just because its been a bad week. Not with the program, just with life.. lots of stress. Anyhow... 

I am loving the 21 day fix! The containers are great, they are really helping with my portions. Also I am not used to eating during the day so it has helped to have a guide to choosing the right things, now I don't even have to think about it. Getting easier everyday. 
The workouts are awesome! I have to say my favs are the Upper Fix, Dirty 30 & Yoga. The others are not so easy, but I have done them all and am loving the results. I didn't want to weigh in because I was afraid to be disappointed, but I gave in and I have lost 6 lbs so far

Nichole: Today I put on some clothes I haven't been able to wear in at least a year! Feeling a little emotional!

Julie:  Awesome! As of Monday I'm 9 lbs down. Not going to take my measurements again until the last day though. I'm already excited for round 2!

Rhonda: I'm going to share my experience with 21 Day Fix! 

I started by reading all the pamphlets and looking at the containers. Figured out how many calories I can consume and so on. This took me a few days to get it together and have somewhat of a routine. 
The DVD workouts where fun but a workout! I liked the fact that they had a women do the less impact workout. Which I followed most if the time. 
What I learned in this program was portions and mixing greens, proteins and so on. Even though I was eating salads for dinner, I had a huge salad. Didn't even consider portion before because it was a salad.
So, now that I've completed this, im going for round 2! (4lb loss first round)

Jason: It was cool. I am doing another round! I haven't measured my inch loss but I lost a total of 23 lbs. I'm at 220 now! I got the flu on wed and part of thurs so I only did double days mon and tues. Skipped the rest of the week. Today I feel great and will start double days again. My goal is 5 lbs per week for a total of 15 lbs at the end of this round. Let's do this!
