Shakeology: The First 2 Days

I'm sick. I have the worst sinus infection ever and I feel like death. Yesterday, I didn't do anything. I laid in bed and let my hubby take care of me!! BUT I drank shakeology. I couldn't tell you anything about it, except that I drank it. I'm very sick. Day 2 I get up and make my shake. I made it with milk because water was gross and added some peanut butter. Good stuff. I can't really do a great review because I'm sick but I can say that I didn't eat alot and I didn't want any snacks. That's. Awesome.

Shakeology. For real!

I have forever been wanting to start drinking shakeology, but either my business want doing what I needed it to or it just wasn't feasible that month. My upline coaches tell me that shakeology should be part of my day and that I need to drink it on order to promote it. So, recently the opportunity has risen that i was able to get the shakeology and i purchased it and now I'm drinking it. What i thought would be great is if I could give you a real review of shakeology. Not the whole "Shakeology is so great and you should drink it even if you have to choke it down". Shakeology is supposed to help you lose weight, give you energy, curb cravings, make you feel full and boost your immune system. I need all of these. Sincerely. I've been trying to take care of myself but i keep falling off the wagon. So here's to another start, maybe this is what i needed!

Valentines Day

I love romance and the flowers and jewelry that goes with it. But I don't need it, and frankly I don't really want it. I have the rings and I have the man, what else possibly could I need? We went to dinner for our night, Texas Roadhouse to be exact and I ate. I ate alot. Their rolls and cinnamon butter is so good. Then the waitress bright us more because it was empty! We hadn't even gotten food yet! Then came the onion blossom, yah that barely hit the table before it was half gone. Oh look. Here's my salad. I think that was supposed to make me feel better about the rolls. So I indulged a little. It's not a terrible thing to do every once in awhile. The thing is, if you take away every "bad" food you will eventually succumb and then you will overdo it. You should pick one day a week to indulge. That day eat whatever you want, no boundaries. Not only will this help your metabolism keep moving because you changed it up, it will also help you eat better the rest of the week knowing that day is coming. Misty Dawn

Fail?

I keep falling off the wagon.  The fitness wagon that is.  I'm too tired. I don't feel good. I just worked 10 hours today. They're all excuses.  Excuses that don't work.  If I have time to lay here and watch a marathon of Vampire Diaries then I have time to do my workout.  And the thing is, is that I KNOW it will make me feel better, that I will benefit from it and the ultimate prize of losing some pounds and inches. 

It's really a matter of me getting up and doing it and going against all the excuses in my head.  So since I'm blogging about my journey and my fitness AND I want people to get fit, I need to lead by example.  I believe that this will be enough for me.  I will be accountable to YOU! And of course, myself.

So let's rock it out!  PiYo here I come!

New Beginnings!!

A year ago I started a journey.  I call it a journey because there's been plenty that has happened along the way.  Not all bad and not all good, but it's happened and leading up to a wonderful place that I'm in and striving to only get better!

So in just two weeks I am starting a new accountability group with an awesome fellow coach!! I know that her and I will do well together and make this group a success just as the previous accountability group is.  It's a good thing we're leaving, no burned bridges.  It's just too big now.  And THAT is an awesome problem to have!!!  My coach and mentor has taught me everything I think she possibly could and now it's time for me to spread my wings and get out there and make her proud.

Yes it's a little unsettling.  It's change.  Aren't we all scared of that in even the slightest way?  But I know it's a change for the good, and things are only going to go up from here!
