Do I NEED weight loss surgery?

For those that are curious about stomach tightening, loose skin after weight loss or wondering if you should get weight loss surgery because you're scared about excess skin...

Not being able to tighten your skin is BS. Now, hear me OUT! I know its not BLACK and WHITE, but overall...saying you cant tighten your skin without surgery is ABSOLUTE crap!

You do NOT 'NEED' surgery. 

What I've found (mind you, I'm not an expert and this is from my OWN experience/research), is that the people that can't tighten their tummy or have a lot of loose skin usually are people that don't go about weight loss in a healthy/realistic way, have extenuating circumstances or have lost/gained weight fast in the past. Your body can only handle so much wear and tear. STOP trying to lose as much weight as possible with the least amount of change. You'll end up paying for it...AKA, your skin won't tighten the way it SHOULD like it WOULD if you're eating right AND exercising. 

What do I suggest? 

Make REALISTIC changes. Any diet plan that calls for SEVERELY restricting in one area or another is NOT realistic. Or how about a workout plan that calls for 1-2hours of exercise EVERY day? Again, NOT realistic.

#sorrynotsorry

The truth is harsh sometimes guys! I'm just sayin I have a NEW online accountability group starting EVERY month where i'll teach you how to MAKE healthy AND realistic changes. You don't want to be left with all that unnecessary skin OR unnecessarily going under the knife.

What does a health and fitness coach ACTUALLY do?!

I get this question a lot: "What do you ACTUALLY do?"

I sell large quantities of crack cocaine in bags labeled "Shakeology". Duh.

Bahhhaa, just kidding! Seriously though, some people are just as suspicious of my career as a Beachbody Coach! I get it, I DO! I was too until someone really explained it to me!

But anywho...if there was a simple way to explain what I do, i'd say this: I work each day to inspire people to believe in themselves and make positive changes in their lives. Plain and simple. Whether that be through being my ridiculously dorky self, encouraging others to live themselves (rolls & all), or prayer, or private messages, or health and fitness coaching, or leadership, or whatever...the purpose I wake up with and take to sleep with me each day is to inspire people to make positive changes.

And the cool thing? I've found that all the other business and technical details and money and opportunity and team building and blah blah blah...that all comes naturally if I'm fully pursuing that one simple daily goal. Inspire people. Be inspired. Repeat. Don't over complicate it. Just fight to be a great example of what's possible with an unapologetically positive attitude...and keep trying to inspire people. And repeat.

If that simple daily goal resonates with you, and you feel that tug to help others, maybe you should check the video BELOW to learn EXACTLY what we do! You'll learn how to start living a live FILLED with freedom by obtaining that SIMPLE daily goal. You will also learns the ins and outs, how you could earn 25% Discounts on products and Shakeology, how to turn your progress into a weekly Paycheck and really see what this whole coaching thing is all about!

Or, if you KNOW it's something you want to do...fill out this form and i'll get back with you ASAP about journey our team! Hope to talk to you soon!

Extra GUAC, duh!

THE BEST GUACAMOLE RECIPE

I can’t tell you how in the world I came up with this, but somehow it “worked.”  I love to experiment in the kitchen when I get REALLY bored (hehe!) and this guacamole was born in result of having left over avocados that needed used.  Now, there are NEVER any left over avocados in our house, because they’re used up to make guacamole, before I can make anything else.

I kind of “wing,” it when I make it, and adjust ingredient quantities as needed.  Be cautious of adding too much salt, when serving with salty chips!

Ingredients

2 Avocados, peeled and cut into pieces
1/4 of a Red Onion, chopped finely
1 Roma Tomato, chopped finely
Juice from 1/2 a lime
Pinch of chopped fresh cilantro
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
Pinch of Kosher Salt, to taste
Pinch of Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

Mix the avocado pieces, red onion, roma tomato, fresh cilantro, and lime juice in together, until desired consistency. 
Add in salt, pepper, and garlic powder. 
Serve immediately!

NOTE: I like my GUAC chunky. You can however mash yours!

What IS Shakeology?!

What is Shakeology, and why is it a part of your Online Health and Fitness Accountability Challenge groups?

WHY SHAKEOLOGY??

Do you believe that nutrition is 80% RESULTS in anything you are trying to achieve? Lose weight? Tone or build muscle {which you actually eat MORE food}} reduce inflammation, diabetes meds, more energy?

It’s ALL what you are fueling the body with! That’s why Shakeology is the SECRET WEAPON when starting a lifestyle change. It IS the nutrition GAP- FILLER!

Think of it like this–you buy a brand new car! It’s expensive. And you want to treat it like a baby. Take great care of it so that it last a long time and you get the MOST out of your investment. Yeah you could put 87 gas in your car it will run and do its thing BUT it will run down faster, part with break, systems may get junked up! But if you use premium fuel the car last longer, it’s the best preventative maintenance, and it prolongs the life span of you car! Bam! That’s what Shakeology is!! It’s giving your body a daily dose of NATURAL HEALING PREVENTIVE MEDS for optimum health of your body so that it performs and feels at its optimum best!

Our bodies are starving for nutrients leading to fatigue, inflammation, dehydration a, and cravings. Once it’s satisfied you have more energy and get the best results along with clean eating and your workouts! Plus it saves you time and money in the kitchen!

Who would want that?!

A LITTLE ABOUT SHAKEOLOGY

*Shakeology is NOT a protein shake (although it does contain protein)

*Shakeology is NOT Slim Fast or {Insert name of any other icky, chemical-filled meal replacement}

*The ingredients in Shakeology are ALL natural and are holistic ingredients for many ailments and diseases derived from there NATURAL STATE.

*The 72 super foods that make up Shakeology are found all over the world.

Shakeology has all of the vitamins included in a daily multivitamin

*I’ve had challengers tell me that Shakeology has helped their migraines, anxiety, IBS, Crohn’s Disease, Diabetes, it’s helped their skin clear up, their hair grow, their digestion, etc etc etc.

*I find that my challengers have a much higher success rate when they are drinking Shakeology.

*Shakeology fills your body with nutrients so you don’t crave junk food (results are 85% nutrition!) AND so you have more energy (less likely to skip workouts or reach for sugar or caffiene for energy).

*THIS, right here, is why Shakeology is required for my challenge groups!  It is one meal I can be sure will help you get results – simply by helping you eat better and giving you more energy for workouts – this sets you up for success!!

Here’s my FAV recipe and FASTEST healthiest fuel to start your day!

I gave myself a 103.6% raise in 2016!

I agonized about actually putting this together because I was worried people would think it "icky" of me to share about money. I HATE taking about it. It's always the elephant in the room but stay with me. It's important to know HOW your income can increase by 103.6% in a year! That's essentially means that I more than DOUBLED my income. 

When I started as a coach it was really just to keep my butt in line. I figured the more eyes on me the more likely I'd be to stick with it. It's grown into something much more meaningful than that.

My entire working career up until that point had only been the safe route with a large corporation. You know the life. The daily grind. The BS you put up with because you figure this is the ONLY way. I even went on to get a psychology degree because the jobs I had been looking at required it. When I finished my degree I found that the amount of education I had was once again not enough. I was feeling pretty depressed at this point because not only did I need to go back to school but go even further in debt. I just thought that there must be a better way. I can't be without options.

The idea of becoming a fitness coach was scary when I was first introduced to it. Not only because I was a 312 lb negative nancy but because all id known was the safe corporate job where you trade your soul for a paycheck. I mean I didn't have a ton of friends, I didn't know anything about marketing, I wasn't in decent shape and to be honest I wasn't really very friendly because I hated myself at this point.

I tried anyway. Heaven knows why. Maybe just to see if I could or maybe because I was tired of working for the man hating my job and staying in debt. The first few months I just kind of half assed it. Like I said, I was mainly doing it for me. As I started to earn an income, make connections, helping people and getting results of my own...I really realized the potential. I knew that I'd never have to go back to the soul sucking corporate life again and I knew I could achieve that by helping others find their confidence again! That was one of my main motivating factors. Well that and working from home in my pjs🙈

It wasn't always pretty. It's certainly not easy. I've spent many sleepless nights trying to hit a goal or helping my team hit a goal. The financial reward DOES catch up with hard work. I mean..I think it's evident in the 103.6% income increase.

Bold and Beautiful Fitness is now officially a Top 700 Team (out of OVER 500,000), I've lost over 135lbs, I traveled to Florida 2 times in celebration of my Teams achievements, traveled to Nashville Tennessee twice, moved my ENTIRE life to Florida, was invited to speak to a 6000+ strong Team, made new friends & strengthened other awesome friendships within this amazing community, I traveled to Destin Beach for FREE to be rewarded for all the things myself & my Team accomplished, earned FREE vacas on a cruise and to Punta Cana, paid off 1/3 of my debt & I found inner strength through throwing caution to the WIND to make this little coaching thing my ONLY income. 

Mind you...I don't say ANY of this to brag. I say it in HOPE that this will INSPIRE you!

You just have to focus on people, be willing to learn, grow as a person & want more for yourself. That's IT!

If you've been watching my journey or even the SLIGHTEST bit intrigued, comment below or message me to join us on Monday in my Sneak Peek into Coaching group. Here you'll find out a little more about what I do everyday and how you TOO can work from the couch in your pjs towards a financially free life!

No obligations. Just information!

Hope to see you there! Or if you cant wait....fill THIS out and i'll get back to you ASAP! <3
