Beachbody Health Bet - Join the Challenge!!

Wouldn’t it be awesome to get paid simply for exercising??

How would you like extra cash just for building healthy habits??

Sounds pretty nice, doesn’t it? Well guess what? Now you can! During the month of September Beachbody is offering you the chance to do just that through Health Bet!

Now you’re probably wondering what is Beachbody’s Health Bet.

It’s simple - Beachbody is literally betting cold hard CASH that you will fall in love with getting healthy!

During the Challenge period (September 5th – October 2nd, 2016) anyone who meets the requirements below will win an equal share of a $1 million dollar+ cash pot funded by Beachbody! As a BONUS – for every Challenge Pack sold from July 27th – August 31st, 2016, Beachbody will add $5 to the pot for up to a $3 million dollar pot! As of the time of writing this the pot has already reached $1.25 million and is growing daily!!

THIS is why I love Beachbody so much – and especially this Health Bet Challenge. They focus on building healthy LIFESTYLE HABITS! Forget being a slave to the numbers (and this from a former accountant! ;)). It’s not about focusing on the things that are going to demoralize you because honestly that scale only tells a TINY portion of the overall picture!

You are being rewarded for creating healthy HABITS – and they’re habits that ANYONE can do!

• Workout 3 times per week
• Drink Shakeology 5 times per week

That’s it!!

Most programs are ONLY 22-30 minutes – and let's be honest, you’ve got that much time in your day! So no pressure to workout for hours. No embarrassing weigh-ins.

You simply workout, drink a shake, and post them in your Beachbody Challenge Tracker app. Super easy!! No stressing about things you shouldn’t.

Don’t forget about your other reward!! How much cash will you win?

It depends on how large the final pot will be (minimum of $1 million and maximum of $3 million) and how many people participate. So it could be $5, $15, $50 or more. Beachbody will announce the total pot amount in early September.

But the good news is whether you get a big check, or just enough to buy a Frappuccino, you will be a winner in that you have created the healthy habits of moving your body and drinking a health shake! You will be a stronger, more fit, more vibrant person at the end of the month than you were when you started!

Want to join me???

I’m running a special Health Bet challenge group for the entire contest period. We start on September 5th and go through October 2nd. So you will not only earn the Beachbody Health Bet payout, but you’ll also get the support of me and a group of others on the same journey to become the healthiest version of ourselves as possible.

3 Day Refresh

It's so easy to let your nutrition slip.  An extra slice of pizza here... a bowl of ice cream there.  Or even that salad you convinced yourself was healthy - despite the toppings you chose to put on it.  Holidays especially are ever so helpful for keeping your nutrition on track too!

We've all done it from time to time, myself included.  Before you know it your pants are snug and uncomfortable, your favorite shirt doesn't fit quite as well as it used to.  And my least favorite - your energy levels plummet and lethargy kicks in full throttle.

So now what? 

Whether you're looking to start a new fitness program and jump in full force, or if you're just looking for a little help in the maintenance area, there's a solution: the 3 Day Refresh!

Over the course of 3 days, this program will help you break the cycle of bad eating by cleansing your body and improving the way you feel WITHOUT any starvation.

How does it work?

It's a simple process:

• 3 Shakes per day
• 1 fiber drink per day
• 3 small meals per day

A typical day consists of the following:

MORNING

Breakfast - Shakeology + 1 fruit option

Tea Break - Unsweetened green or herbal tea

Late AM - Fiber Sweep digestive drink

AFTERNOON

Lunch - Vanilla Fresh shake + 1 fruit option + 1 veggie option + 1 healthy fat option

Snack - 1 veggie option + 1 healthy fat option OR 1 raw juice option

Tea Break - Unsweetened herbal tea

EVENING

Dinner - Vanilla Fresh Shake + 1 option from Dinner Recipes list

Tea Break - Unsweetened herbal tea

When is the best time to start the 3-Day Refresh? 

Choose three days that will work best for you and your schedule. You want to be able to stick with the program. Some people start on Friday so that they end on Sunday and can focus over the weekend. Others choose to do it during the week as to avoid temptations on the weekend. Choose the 3-day period that’s best for you!

Can I exercise while doing the 3-Day Refresh? 

Mild to moderate exercise is recommended during the refresh. While you may be able to do a harder program, your body is working to clean your system. So, it is recommended that you not tax it with a strenuous program.

You can do the program as a kick-start to a healthy lifestyle. Some also choose to do it on a monthly basis as a tune-up. Think about it, you can lose up to 3 lbs with the program. So, if you do it monthly, you could lose over 30 lbs in a year.

Yes. Shakeology is used for breakfast each day. Vegan formulas are recommended but the regular whey formula can be used if necessary.

It is recommended that coffee not be used with the program and that you use green tea or herbal tea. However, if you do choose to drink coffee, do not add milk, sugar or other unnatural ingredients. You can add stevia.

Can you do the 3-Day Refresh while pregnant or breastfeeding? 

I would not recommend doing this program while pregnant or breastfeeding since the calories are so low.

Typically I'm a Insanity Max:30 kinda girl, but my workout today was Hammer Agility... And I gotta say I love this program! It's a mixture of old school and new school moves that tend to bring back so many memories of when I first learned to lift at the age of 13.

One thing is for certain - I've come a long way since then. That naieve young girl who truly believed she was invincible learned the hard way she was ENTIRELY BREAKABLE after that first spinal fusion... And admittedly I remained broken by choice for a long time... Too long really.

I remembered the pain I endured and the doctor visits that started when I was about 12 or 13.

I remembered wearing flip flops to go to college classes despite it being the middle of December and the streets being slush-filled with snow and ice, all because I couldn't bend to get a shoe on with out fiery pain shooting through the nerves in my legs.

I remembered feeling terrified when I finally conceded that I couldn't put off the surgery any longer.

I remembered waking up in a fog and just *knowing* everything went to hell.

I remembered the week spent bedridden in the hospital, hooked up to IV's and morphine.

I remembered the difficulty in just getting out of bed each morning, especially when I nearly blacked out on the first attempt.

I remembered the long road of recovery I was going to endure.

I remembered the horrific withdrawal symptoms from not only the morphine, but also the Oxycontin I was prescribed to manage my pain.

I remember making the decision to quit the meds cold turkey because trying to wean myself off them only prolonged and exacerbated the sickness, and let's be honest by that point, pain was the lesser of the two evils.

I remember wanting to die because I had enough and didn't know how much more I could take.

Might sound melodramatic, but as a 20 year old, life was NOT supposed to be spent suffering like that.

At 21 a second fusion fixed it all for good... but I still REMEMBERED... and I was ridiculously SCARED of that pain. So I thought if I lived a fragile life I'd have an easier existence...

It may have taken me years longer than it should have, but I will forever be thankful that I eventually realized just how wrong I was. By living in such a way I was merely existing - I wasn't LIVING. I didn't enjoy life the way I should have... could have. I lived in a damn bubble because I was afraid of getting hurt again.

I could be mad at myself for not learning quickly enough, but everything happens for a reason and some of the best lessons I've learned have come as a result of staying broken for too long.

Yes, I'm breakable, however, I KNOW I'm capable of putting myself back together STRONGER than before. Those cracks from the break make the foundation to build yourself up higher than you ever thought possible!

I'm capable of learning from my mistakes and figuring out a better way to do things going forward. The only thing that can hold me back... is ME.

And most importantly, I'm a better person for having made mistakes than not having made any at all.

I've learned to see the world from many perspectives.
I've learned not to judge too quickly.
Honestly, some of my most important lessons have been learned through pain - but that doesn't mean you have to endure in that pain. You can rise up and become stronger than you ever thought possible.

My health has become a priority when once I was afraid of exercising, afraid of doing anything that might damage my precious titanium that is keeping my spine in place. I'm so glad I finally made this decision because now I feel a thousand times better for it - both physically and emotionally.

I'm no longer a shell that tiptoes through life. I am ME once more and no one, not even me, will take that away ever again!

And even better, my children have regained their mother - a woman confident in herself and the things she's capable of doing - probably the best gift I could have ever given them.

I never imagined life could change so much simply by making the decision to stop standing in my own way and instead start taking better care of myself because I'm worth it.

YOU'RE worth it too! Are you ready to take that first step and commit to yourself and your health?? Don't stand in your own way like I did! Send me a message, or click here to join my next accountability group if you want help getting started.
