Tips to Avoid Holiday Weight Gain



Why wait until the New Year to set a weight loss goal?   I would like to avoid gaining the average 10 pounds a person can expect to gain over the months of November and December.   So I need to make a plan and put some action behind it.    Here are some tips I came up with to help us all stay on track.

1.  Have a plan for fitness.   Plan to workout at home, go for a walk or run, or hit the gym for at least 30 minutes 5 or 6 days a week.

2.  Have a plan for nutrition.  Meal plan on the weekend.   Make sure you shop and prep the food ahead of time for easy access.   Cook chicken and portion it out ahead of time.   Cut up vegetables and fruit and use ziplock bags for easy storage.   Know what you are going to eat and how much.   

3.  Be accountable.   You've got goals, shout them out!   Tell a friend or spouse, post to social media.  Find a small group of like minded individuals to help keep you accountable.

4.  Drink your water.   Current recommendation are to divide your current weight by 2 and drink that amount in ounces of water.   For example if you weigh 150 pounds you should be drinking 75 ounces of water each day.  

5. Eliminate temptation.   Donate treats that are still in your house to a local food pantry.   Don't buy what you know you can't manage.   You control what goes in your shopping cart and it has to start there.  

These are just a handful.   Do you have tips of your own?  Share them below!   I would love to hear from you.  



Losing weight during the Holidays can happen.   Stop guessing what needs to be done and make a plan.   Fill out my form below and I will connect you with simple nutrition and fitness that works!

So you want to be a stay at home mom?



When I grow up I want to be a_______. For me the answer was always a stay at home mom. One thing I loved about my child hood was my mom was always there when I got off the bus give or take a few days. That is one of my good memories of growing up.
So when I had Sydney back in 1999 that's exactly what I did. Tim and I sacrificed a lot so I could be at home. Then kids 2, 3 and "Oh my word Paige isn't even 1 yet and I'm pregnant," number 4 child came along. Then we really couldn't afford to pay for all the daycare costs so I continued to stay at home.
Now I have had times where I have gone to work to make ends meet. But my hearts desire is at home.
So in 2011 when I was looking for a way to earn extra money and the opportunity to become a coach came up I took a leap of faith.
4 years later it's still the best decision I ever made.
I continue to make more money staying home than I would going to work.
So you want to be a stay at home mom? So you want to earn money while you stay at home? So you want to replace your full or part time income and come home?
So you should think about coaching. Now hiring mompreuneurs. Let's connect!

These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things! Birthday Edition





Today is my birthday!   I thought I would share with you a few things I am madly in love with!   First up is the new Shakeology Boosts!   I just got back from vacation and I have to say.   Not a lot of veggies were eaten.   So today I added a full serving of leafy green vegetables to my Shakeology.   Now I know what you are thinking.   How does it taste?   Honestly I don't notice a flavor change at all!   Here is the scoop:

Power Greens Boost contains veggies like cucumber, kale, and spinach to deliver a full serving of vegetables in each scoop. Plus, this potent Boost supports the body's natural acid/alkaline balance.

There are other options as well:

Focused Energy boost :This unique formula is designed to deliver a wholesome boost of energy. The energy comes from 100 mg of natural caffeine from guarana and green tea. This Boost also supports mental clarity, alertness, and focus.  

Digestive Health boost: With a unique blend of 7 grams of both soluble AND insoluble fiber packed into every single scoop, this formula stands apart from typical fiber supplements that contain only soluble fiber. This powerful boost helps support regularity and digestive health


You can read more about it here  SHAKEOLOGY BOOSTS



I have to say I am absolutely in LOVE with Beachbody On Demand!   They have added it to Roku, Amazon Fire TV and Chromecast.   They have a HUGE library of full fitness programs PLUS my programs I have purchased such as 21 Day Fix,  T25, and many more!    This month they are adding new and exclusive content from Celebrity Trainers Autumn Calabrese, Tony Horton and Sagi Kalev!   Plus more exclusive content from Master Trainers!   You can read all about Beachbody on Demand here---->  Click this!

How will you manage your kids device time this summer?

Remember the days when watching TV was the only option?   We had 2 channels.   I spent my summer watching Days of Our Lives because there was NOTHING on!   Now we not only do we have hundreds of channels to choose from, but there is YouTube, and Pinterest, and Instagram, and Facebook and well you get this picture.  


I know what is on my mind this summer.   How will I monitor the kids and their device time?   I have 4 kids and they are all grade school age and older.   My son is the most affected when it comes to too much device time.    He is moody, grumpy, and out of sorts if he spends too much time.

Unless we make a deliberate effort to have a plan for our device time it won't happen.

I am curious to hear from you.

How do you monitor your kids device time?

Does it affect your kids mood if they spend too much time on it?

How do you keep up with all of it?   Snapchat, Vines, Instagram, email, texting

Are you overwhelmed?

We are having a discussion on my Facebook Page this week.   I'd love for you to join us!

We are the first generation to parent this issue.   I know as a fellow parent I can use all the help I can get.

From depressed mom to empowered coach! How Beachbody coaching changed my life. For real!



2011 I was DEPRESSED. My marriage was in a bad place. I didn't know myself. I did not recognize myself when I looked in the mirror. I tried to find some pictures of me, but I was hiding. Hiding behind people. Hiding myself. 
Looking back I had NO idea how starting P90X would change my life so completely. While my husband and I received counseling and healed our marriage. I needed something for myself.

I completed P90X and had great results. I was looking for a way to earn money from home. I have a strong desire to be a stay at home MOM, but also contribute to the family finances. My coach Joline offered the opportunity to me several times. You might be surprised that I said NO, several times. I didn't want to be a yucky salesman. I wanted a legitimate way to earn income from home. What I didn't know is that the coaching opportunity was my answer.

October 2011 I said YES. Reflecting back again I had no idea how this would dramatically change my life. The doors were opened wide to helping several women to lose weight and in turn change their lives. I have had countless conversations with women which gives me the opportunity to speak TRUTH into their lives. THEY matter no matter what the scale says, no matter how much they weigh. They have value! What a privilege to speak TRUTH. See I believe that weight loss, and getting healthy are emotional and spiritual as well as physical.
3 years later I can see how God is using me. Becoming a coach just gave me a platform to speak truth. I earn a decent income all from home! I am a confident leader of a growing team. I get to be a part of life change. What a blessing!

My team is having a 5 day sneak peek into coaching. I want to invite you to check us out. To ask questions. To be informed. So if you are into fitness. You want to earn an income from home that is legit. You have a desire to pay it forward and help others. Then YOU don't want to miss this! 


Please comment below so we can connect and you can have your own platform for your own message!   I look forward to hearing from you!

Grace for the Race



Today I was on the phone with a friend.  Someone who has recently gained back the weight she had lost.   She was asking me for advice on what she should do to get back on track.   As we are were discussing her options, I reflected on my own journey.   I reflected on other people whose paths have I have crossed.  Truly in the 3 years I have been a coach I KNOW that this path to being healthy is a spriritual, physical and emotional journey.   Do we take time to address the spiritual or emotional?  

Introducing GRACE FOR THE RACE

Is this the tool you need to finally learn portion control?

When I first started my weight loss journey, I was a big fan of counting calories.    If you bite it your write it.   If you snack it you track it.   This was a great thing.   I lost weight.  Success happened.   And then I got tired of it.   I swear if I have to count one more calorie this is what might happen.  




Now I have a better way!   



If it fits in the box, you can eat it.   Simple as that!
Combine this tool with 30 minutes of exercise daily and you have a powerful combination.  And guess what I don't have to track a single calorie!

This program is so popular I am able to start a group once a week.  If you would like to join me for my next group, please fill out this form and I will be in touch!

An introverted coach?



I am an introvert.   I like to be at home with my family.   I enjoy deep meaningful conversation.  I dislike small talk.   I love people.   I love being around groups of people.   I just feel recharged when I am alone.    

I am a coach.   I meet new people everyday.   I help people reach their health and fitness goals.   I help people be successful.   I am passionate about my coaching.

I want you to know that all kinds of people make great coaches.   Extroverts and introverts.   This business suits me because I can do it from home.   I can connect with people on my time.   

In fact I just got back from Lincoln, NE from a Super Saturday event.   It was awesome to be in a group of like minded people.   It was great to workout LIVE with Shaun T.  It fueled me to go home and keep reaching out to people.   There are lots of people out there who are just looking to connect with someone.   Even introverts can do that.   Thankfully we can do it from home!

If you have any questions about coaching or what it means to be a coach.  I would love to connect with you!
