Holiday tip 🎁 'Tis the season of celebrations and get-togethers, which means higher consumption of eggnog and other "fun" beverages 😜 Be sure to make water one of those fun beverages! Staying hydrated is so important for our overall health and well being. And if you feel adventurous, add some lemon, and reap extra benefits. Cheers to your health! 💦💦

🚨SHAUN T created a brand new weight training program and I’m looking for 10 women who want to sample it before it launches! 🚨And guys, you are welcome too!

There is NO CATCH… all you have to do is tell me you want it and I will send you the direct link to it — no sign ups required. I would love your opinion.

Shaun is such a great trainer and always motivates me to push myself. All I know is that THIS program is going to blow your freaking mind. 💥

Picture a college course on weight lifting delivered by a 45 year old that just won his first body building competition doing this program. He truly changed his whole body.

It’s co-led by a doctorate in physical therapy (DPT), so you know the cueing and training will be on point.

This will be perfect for couples.
This will be perfect for 2024.
This will be perfect for weight loss.
This will be perfect for toning or building.

It’s the ULTIMATE BODY RECOMPOSITION PROGRAM, that launches Dec 19. Ed and I are in and would love some partners to join us.

Reach out and let me GIFT you a free class 🫶🏻

Came across an article the other day that caught my eye. The topic was "The #1 Habit You Should Have to Lose Weight". So of course I was curious to see what is was. Aren't we all? 😉

I really wasn't surprised by the answer. Of course, people may have different responses but I agreed with this ONE...
(Drum roll 🥁)

💥 Finding People to Share Your Journey 💥

It went on to say that permanent lifestyle changes happen in relationships. New habits happen when people get together and help each other out! 🙌

I experience this on a daily basis with my virtual support group of amazing ladies! We create a "community of consistency" so that we show up every day with support and accountability. Shout out to my awesome peeps!! 🥇
When I found others like me, who were struggling yet striving, I knew that it was the place for me to be.

So if you're in my group, you will see my smiling 😊 or sweaty 😅or breathless 😜or wiped out face 😳BUT you will see it EVERYDAY 👍 because I believe CONSISTENCY is KEY and surrounding yourself with others is a great HABIT to possess!

Hit me up if you could use support too. We always have room for more, programs for all fitness levels, simple meal plans to follow and partners to be inspired by ❤️

Could this be your #1 habit to follow too?

OPERATION “Get back on track and improve gut health” has begun! 👊
Yup, am committing to this 4 week program again as I know it WORKS!

I was just feeling that I needed a reboot. This past year has taken a toll. Between the remodel, total clean out of 2 homes, selling our home of 30 years, moving, settling into our new home and having another grandchild…it’s been quite a year 🤪 Stress can take a toll on the body and mind…

Taking control of nutrition can make all the difference. Grateful that this program has helped me before and I know, will be just what I need now. It also includes a no impact, 30 min workout, 4 days a week to add in movement which is key.

Sure it calls for eliminating somethings, temporarily…bye bye 🍷🍹🍞🍫 for a month but does it look like I’m starving?!
It’s all about adding in all the good food to nourish the body so it can lose the bloat, drop weight, feel less tired, improve sleep and mood and balance the gut.

If you could use something like this too, reach out and happy to share the details. I’ll share along the way so be sure to follow my progress and of course, join me if you’d like! We have a large group of others doing it right now too!

Time to be FIERCE and FOCUSED 👊

Who loves a great sale?! ✋🏼

13+ years ago, I was overweight and frustrated looking for an answer that would help me feel better about myself. Beachbody / BODi gave me my life back and has helped me to get in the best shape of my life!

This sale has never happened before! I just received a special promo code that gives you the annual membership for less than $3 a week!! 🥰 This crazy Labor Day Sale runs through the holiday weekend.

• thousands of workouts

• simple meal plans

• cooking show recipe library

• nutrition guidance

• community groups for support

• mindset nuggets to keep you going

If you've ever debated grabbing a Beachbody BODi membership, here's your sign!

Let’s freaking GO!! Comment "BODi" or send me a message and I'll send you my link and promo code.

Today's date kept ringing a bell for some reason. Leave it to Facebook to remind me. It was 1️⃣3️⃣ years ago today that I started P90X, my “workout in a box”, hoping that it could be the answer to help me lose weight and reshape my body 🤔

Little did I know that it would be a life altering decision. At the time, I never imagined that committing to that program and drinking Shakeology "for 3 months" would change the path of my life. 1️⃣3️⃣ years later and still "BRINGING IT" and "SHAKING IT" everyday!! 🙅‍♀️

Sometimes, I think making the decision to start and then really committing is the tough part. Once you do, and stay CONSISTENT…the results come and the positive changes happen. Like I always say "Change is good!" 🙌
The 2nd pic is today which makes me feel proud that I have stayed committed… it’s been my goal from the beginning 🙅‍♀️ ( excuse the sweat🤩)

👉 If you knew you could have positive results, would you take the chance too? 🤷‍♀️ What about if they were guaranteed? 👊

👉 If you knew by committing to even 30-45 min a day, 4-5 days a week, you could feel and see change, would you make the time? 🤷‍♀️

👉 If making some small simple changes in your nutrition help you lose weight, have more energy and improve your health, would you try it? 🤷‍♀️

I know I'm so grateful I did 😊

Now that Summer is coming to a close 😩 want to partner up and crush your health goals? 👭 I even have some PROMO codes to help YOU get started. Let’s plan your DAY 1️⃣ 🤩

Anyone else ready to dial things in after the Summer? 🙋‍♀️
I know I AM and gearing up to commit to a program that’s worked before! Does anyone remember when I did this 4 week gut health plan back in 2022? 👇

I was looking for something that would help me break through a stubborn plateau. It was during a stressful time and figured that was messing with my body. Mom was starting to decline and knew she needed me but I committed anyway and trusted the process.

I really was shocked by my results! 10 pounds down in 4 weeks while eating a variety of food and never feeling hungry. Mom even passed during the last week and I was able to stay on point…determined to reach my goal. NO excuses (Wanted to make her proud and not quit)

Fast forward to this past year, with all we’ve been through, it’s time to commit to another round! Could you use a program that could get you back on track too? 💁‍♀️

We have a group starting after Labor Day weekend. It’s the perfect time to start feeling better, shed the Summer indulgences and just overall improve our health.

I invite you to comment below with “I’m interested” or DM me and happy to send along info on the plan. It even includes free recipe book of 100 gut friendly meals that are delicious.

Want to join me? Let’s do it together 👭

"NO, I'm good, I don't want anything to do with that!".....That was what I told my friend Kristine when she asked if I wanted to be a BODi partner… not just her partner in crime lol 🚫 🤷‍♀️

It was over 13 years ago, I was overweight, out of shape and hadn't even done a program yet yet but had decided to give Shakeology a "try" for a few months to see what I thought. So, seriously, why would I think I could inspire anyone??
After all, I was working as a nurse, busy with 2 sons, still partially involved with another business, and not looking for anything else on my plate. She encouraged me to, at least, enjoy the benefit of a discount on the shake, without any other requirements... so I did. After all, I am a smart consumer and knew I could save some money 😉

After several months, and seeing and feeling amazing results from the program, I was hooked and just started sharing what I was doing. I realized that I had made a great decision for myself and fast forward 13 years, so blessed that I listened to my friend.
Being a part of the BODi community is something that I wouldn't trade for anything. I was able to leave my nursing career but now, use my passion as a way to help people prevent disease by promoting wellness. BODi allows me to focus on my health while building wealth - all done at home.

This is an opportunity, I love sharing with others. Its too good not to... if you have been curious to what being a part of BODi is all about, I invite you to take a look.

Comment below with "I'm curious " or PM me. Maybe your "NO, I'm good" may turn into something special too 🙂
Want to partner up too?

As soon as I could get this bike, I jumped on it! I figured why not add to my home gym? Without a doubt, I LOVE IT! I try to incorporate into my monthly exercise plan whenever I can but also can do bike programs if I prefer instead!!!

The secret I have is……. you can now get it for as low as $699! BUT this deals ends TODAY!

This is your chance to take advantage of massive savings and get the bike, all the equipment you need (weights, heart rate monitor, foam roller, mat, etc), plus a 3-year membership to aaallll the BODi workouts for only $31/month! That’s just $1/day!

But wait! There’s more! 🤣 We are also offering free shipping, assembly, and a 30-Day money-back guarantee, making it a deal worth up to $950 in total savings!

Could you use something like this to help you stay committed to your health Journey? Let me know ASAP! So I can get you the best deal 🤩

You could say “we are PUMPED UP!” Is it possible to be in love with a workout program after only a few days?! 🤷‍♀️
In the case of this new one, we am going to say a resounding YES! 🙆‍♀️

Ed and I are both so impressed with how well thought out this program is. Our trainer is one of the best in the fitness world, with a background in exercise science, who trains pro athletes and NBA players and lets us feel like we are personally being trained by him…. in our basement!

I honestly cant believe the amount of education, instruction and knowledge he shares about our bodies and how we can improve the way we move.

It really is eye opening! 😳 I would say that, especially as we age, this type of program is even more essential! Lord knows, we need to work even harder at mobility, balance, flexibility, primal movements, building muscle, core and stabilization. Who's with me there?! 🙋‍♀️

I invite you to learn more about this and consider joining us in this journey. My accountability group crew is just as excited as we are, so having that support is an added bonus.👍

Drop a "I'm curious" comment and i'll reach out. LETS GO!! 🔥

My mentor said something this week that struck me...If I love being a partner with BODi and it has enriched my life so much, why don't I share it with more people? Why do I keep this amazing opportunity to myself when so many others may want to join us too? He actually said "I was being SELFISH by not sharing about it!" Yikes, that was tough to hear but so true so here goes....

Little did I know, back 13 years ago, what started out as Ed and I trying to lose weight, get in better shape and just overall healthier, would actually turn into wonderful opportunities 🤗
Did you know, I got involved with this fitness company because I wanted a discount on a superfood shake...period?! That’s it! NO intention of anything else 🚫

It’s when I had results from my first program, P90X, that I could see the vision of how taking what I had experienced to helping others do the same 🙅‍♀️ It seemed to come at a time when I was getting burned out as a nurse and a busy Mom....could it be a way to a better life, to make our future dreams a reality?...

It took me a while to open my eyes to the opportunity in front of me, to create a life that was fun and fulfilling, personally AND financially, but now, I’m so glad I did! Our family has grown to include so many wonderful friends 👫

What about YOU? Does the life we are leading appeal to YOU? Do you see yourself as someone that would like to be healthier, commit to being better and then sharing that to help others like I did? 🤷‍♀️

If so, I am actively looking for people who want more out of life. Those ready for change, physically AND even financially. Those that are ready to “Live Their BEST Life” with passion too....Period.😉

Want to be PARTNERS? Seriously who is ready for more? Do you have a WHY that would push you to work hard? The choice is there! Our community is growing! Let’s chat…

YOU JUST HAVE TO GRAB IT! 💥

Just wanted to share a food prep hack. Ever buy strawberries and they spoil quickly? 💁‍♀️
I started putting them in a canning jar as soon as I get home from the market. They stay fresh and last so much longer then in the plastic container.
Anyone else do this? Give it a shot 🍓🍓

Im often asked why I drink Shakeology. It’s been my daily snack for 13 years 🤗This is WHY!

I read the following post from a certified nutritionist about this superfood smoothie and had to share. To all my friends who are drinking it….you’ll love this and will feel great that you are drinking it 😉 To those that are not drinking it, you might want to reconsider ☺
....”Shakeology is NOT a protein shake. Nor is it a weight loss shake. It is a %100 natural (Macro and micro) nutrient dense meal replacement. It is not a one-dimensional protein shake. The fact that some people say it tastes like "grass, lawn clippings and cheap chocolate" is actually a selling point. Our taste buds have been so "brainwashed" on what real whole foods actually taste like, that we generally don't know natural real whole cocoa from processed chocolate. Because Shakeology IS %100 natural (created by a vegan with a masters in nutrition and agricultural anthropology) the standard to remain natural does not allow for ANY artificial flavors, colors, stimulants, sweeteners or chemically modified micronutrients.
Nearly every single product found in gyms, GNC, internet, you name it, have a LARGE amount of manmade chemicals dumped in it so that it tastes appealing to the general publics "idea" of what food SHOULD taste like. The fact that it tastes the way it does is my point. When you add ONLY what nature provides, you get the CLEANEST and PUREST product possible.
On to the superfoods. I don't expect the average person that follows you to know what Astragalus Root, Ashwagandha Root, Chia Seed, Maca Root, Gogi Berries and Reishi Mushrooms are (just to name a few super foods, Ill spare listing all 70). Nor do I expect them to have general knowledge in all the health benefits and medicinal treatments that these foods have notoriously been used for centuries to treat examples as reducing free radicals from our body, improving our white blood cell count which helps us fight disease, reducing inflammation (the number one marker of EVERY disease), improving the natural flora in our digestive system, etc. If BB grew these products in a lab and modified them to keep them cheap, that would be one thing, but EACH of the 70 super foods are imported from the countries, climates and pure soil they originate from and then dried to a specific protocol to maintain a whole food- absorption integrity.
Everyone should value this $4 meal. I first hand, have hundreds of clients that Shakeology has reduced their needs for diabetic meds, statins and ace inhibitors. Its also relieved countless cases of IBS, colitis, and arthritis. To my clients, paying $4 and getting off their pricey side-effect laden medication is MUCH cheaper and a price well spent for a month supply”......

Where are my Shaun T fans? Who's done some of his programs like Insanity, CIZE, T25, Asylum, Insanity Max 30 or Transform 20?

As much as I enjoyed those ones, I have to say his brand NEW program is the funnest one yet! 💯

If you love to dance 💃 but also want weight resistance, then you’ll be impressed with what he’s created 🤩

He has always been a motivating force for me, even as I struggled through some of his tougher ones. But all I do is smile, sweat and feel happy after these 30 min workouts 😍

It was a thrill to meet him a few times and when I see him again, I’ll thank him for giving us such a positive experience that I look forward to each day 👌 Thanks ! 🥰

I mean, Who couldn’t use that? 🤷‍♀️

If you’re local and in need of hair services, give her a call. You’ll be glad you did 👍 💇‍♀️

I get so FIRED UP when I see change! 💥
For the past 10 years of my health journey, I have been inspired to “be better than yesterday” by watching others...like these rockstars...show up daily! It motivated me to realize the possibility! 💪

Before, I was a busy Mom and RN, struggling with being overweight, unhappy and frustrated as my efforts then weren’t producing the results I wanted 😖
Committing to an at-home program and dialing into my virtual positive community made all the difference! I “changed for good” which inspired me to pay it forward and help others! 🙌

So I share what works for me, along with these amazing ladies, all passionate in the fact, it can help even more! If my posts and videos don’t motivate....then keep scrolling! No worries! 🤷‍♀️

BUT, if they do INSPIRE you, than I’m thrilled and hope it’s helps you in your pursuit towards better health and change!
With the current state of our world, just seems we need more positivity, encouragement and hope, not people who are trying to silence our mission!

So, if you’re on your journey and want to share about it, I’m listening, watching and routing you on! 👊 Keep posting because YOU continue to INSPIRE me!

I know these gals do! Could you use a some daily motivation too? Would you be interested in a spot in our fun accountability group? As you can see, we have all had results 😍 YOU can too 🙌 Happy to share what we have been doing to achieve these results 🤩 It’s never too late to start 💥 @ Boston, Massachusetts

There’s something about feeling victorious when you reach a goal, no matter what it is....right?! 🙌
Truth is, the sweet smell of success will only be short lived as the end of one goal just means it’s Day 1 of the next! 👍

I think I’ve lost count on how many fitness programs I’ve finished over the past 10+ years but there is that sense of accomplishment to check off another one ✅

I often get asked how I seem to stay consistent with my workouts. I learned years ago that I needed 3 things...

⭐️ An interesting, challenging and fun workout that would make me want to show up to push play

⭐️ A schedule to follow so I knew everyday, what was coming next. I’m a “check off the task on my list” kind of gal so if it is on the schedule, I have to find the time in my day to get it done👍

⭐️ A community of like minded ladies who are going through the paces with me. Girl’s that are going to make sure I stay accountable and show me the love when I do...and who I can lift up too! 😍
This is the most important factor, the missing link, for many. I always tell my group members, “We may be working out, at home by ourselves BUT we are NOT ALONE! 💥👭💥

So, who knows what number program I started today....doesn’t matter 🤷‍♀️ The key is to have a plan to insure that the journey doesn’t end!

If you could use help finding a plan and a family of friends to join you, please reach out. I’ve got room for you and a solution that guarantees you’ll be feeling victorious too!!

Woop, woop! Let’s do this! 🙋‍♀️

Where are my Shaun T fans? 🙋‍♀️ I know I, for one, are super excited for his new program coming out next month! Considering that it’s about dancing, lifting weights, a little insanity, positivity and joy...sounds like a perfect program at a perfect time 👌Want the scoop? Would this program be up your alley? 💃

Some memories pop up that just bring on the heavy sigh 😌

So hard to believe this is only one year ago. We wanted Dad to stay with us so he wouldn’t be alone as Covid lockdowns started. We could never imagine what was to come 😔

Looking back, asking Dad to stay with us, turned into a precious gift, an absolute blessing, that I am so thankful for.
Aside from not being able to see Mom...he was happy....

That thought brings me comfort...even through tears 😢 Miss you so much Dad ❤️

💥 Another program is in the books 🙌
Sure, it’s time to celebrate a sense of accomplishment but also to measure progress 📸

Do you see changes? 🤷‍♀️ On the outside, they may be subtle but I’ll tell you, on the inside, I feel stronger, leaner and more “in control”...and that was the whole point of this 9 week program.

So much is “out of our control” nowadays that the only thing we can take hold of is our reactions to this situation. Add on the cold winter season and I know it’s a challenging time. It’s so easy to fall into bad habits and make poor choices. I get it!!! 🙋‍♀️

Believe me...I wasn’t perfect over these past 9 weeks, but being part of an amazing group of ladies, who showed up 5 days a week...for 30 min a day...helped me stay on track and make NO excuses 👭 Thank you fellow CONTROL FREAKS! 😍

So what’s next? 3 weeks of another program from my vast library and then another! 👊 My journey never ends because my goals won’t allow STOPPING! Too much is at stake!

Our health should be our priority! If this past year has taught us anything, we have to take control... to be the best we can be 💪

Are you ready to take control too? 🤷‍♀️ SPRING is here! 🌸 Want to join me and our group as we SHOW UP for each other and ourselves? Newbies are welcome and joining weekly. Let’s pick a program that’s right for you...and help you TAKE CONTROL! Yeah!!! 💥
You up for taking that first step?

Just can’t help myself! Had to share the big news! 😱 This little one cut her 1st tooth and is taking it well 😍 AND can finally wear her hair in a ponytail!
Two milestones reached! Woohoo! 🤩 ☺️💗
