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

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.

A lil bit about me

Sweat dripped down my face, stinging my eyes before I could wipe it away.  My breath came in short gasps; I was tired.  So tired and I wanted nothing more than to stop, but I could feel eyes on the back of my head. 

I glanced over my shoulder and smiled.  She returned the gesture.  All thoughts of quitting flew out of my mind.  I was looking at the oldest of my reasons for pushing my limits on a daily basis: my daughter.

Keep going, I reminded myself.  You got this!

You wondering what the heck is going on yet? 

Oh nothing much… just a little Insanity Max:30 as my daughter watched on, completely engrossed by both me and Shaun T.  I was getting my butt kicked yet again by the man I had grown to both love and hate over the months, but there was no way I was about to quit in front of my daughter.  What kind of example would that be setting? 

Eventually she joined in, laughing with excitement as she attempted certain exercises such as “in-and-out abs”.  And me? Well, I couldn’t have been prouder despite the fact that she left no room for me to move.

So who am I?  I’m simply a single mother of two amazing children, ages 4 and 3 (this February).  I began this fitness journey in earnest when I turned 30.  I think it was a bit of a mid-life crisis that got to me.  In my youth I had been a very competitive athlete but after shoulder surgery, two spinal fusions, gallbladder surgery and two pregnancies, I was heavier than I’d ever been (except while pregnant).  At times the extra weight made it difficult to take care of two extremely active toddlers.  It’s embarrassing to admit how out of breath I would get from such seemingly simple tasks.  My self-esteem plummeted to an all-time low.  On top of that, I also have a condition called PCOS which is an endocrine disorder that has too many side effects to want to list.  But let me tell you – by not taking care of my body, I was feeling all those side effects at once and I couldn’t stand it.  And the worst part of it all?  I felt like I was being a horrible mother to my kids because I was so exhausted all the time.

One day I woke up and said to myself this has to change.  I’m almost 30 but I feel like I’m 50.  It’s gotta stop!  So I used money I got for my birthday and placed an order for Insanity.  Two months later I started on Shakeology. 

I’m not going to lie – in the beginning it was really difficult.  I had been a fairly gifted athlete in my youth so it was more than a little demoralizing to get my butt whooped so easily by Shaun T.  And despite having the best intentions with exercising, I didn’t have the same attitude when it came to eating.  That was probably the hardest part for me.  I absolutely LOVE food (I’ll be the first to admit it – I am an emotional eater as well) and having to limit or even give up certain things was challenging at first.  As a result my weight yo-yo'ed for a few months.  I’d drop 10 pounds and celebrate that tiny victory with foods that most certainly should not have been consumed in such large quantities.  Then to my horror I’d gain back not only the 10 pounds I’d lost, but another 5 because… why not, right?

By winter that year I finally woke up and realized exercise alone wouldn't get me where I want to be.  If I was only going to half-ass it, then there was no point in even trying.  So I started watching how I ate – especially those late night snacks that tended to put weight on me faster than anything else.

But I kept at it - through all my struggles I made the decision that I would never quit.  I would keep going; I was determined to regain my health.  Once I made this decision, slowly but surely I began seeing results and my weight loss finally stopped yo-yo'ing.  It’s amazing what a difference an attitude adjustment can make.  

As the pounds came off, my energy came back.  It became easier to play and rough house with my kids.  I found healthier ways to cook food that still tasted good.  In general, I just felt better about myself and that made a world of difference.  I felt like a new person and was happier than I'd been in ages.  That happiness was reflected in all aspects of my life - including being the best mom I can to my children.

Since May 2013 I’ve managed to lose nearly 55 pounds (and have almost closed the abdominal separation I acquired from my first pregnancy) through the use of Shakeology, Insanity, and multiple rounds of T-25.  Currently, I am doing my first round of Insanity Max:30 and I couldn’t be happier with the progress I've made to date.

I'm so happy with my results that in late November, after talking to family and friends, I decided to take the plunge and finally become a Beachbody coach.  After all, I was already using the products and am proof that they really do work.  It was an idea I'd been toying around with for months, but never had the courage to officially pursue until a chance conversation took place.  I guess a little nudge was all I needed to finally align my work goals with my childhood dreams.  Funny how life works sometimes.

I may not be exactly where I want to be – but I’m getting there.  One day at a time.  With the right mindset anything can be accomplished.  Keep pushing play.
