My beautiful Family
After my last pregnancy I had gained quite a bit of weight. Everyone knows pregnancy is not easy on your body. You gain a lot of weight in between pregnancies. I was definitely ready to get rid of those stretchy maternity pants and "fat" clothes for GOOD! I wanted to get stronger and finally feel comfortable in my own skin! So I was looking for a way to lose those last pounds from 3 pregnancies.
A friend of mine (and coach) Wendy had been working through the 21 Day Fix program as well and was posting her result photos on Facebook. Since then she has lost 50 pounds. Incredible!! I was SO inspired by her results. I liked that it wasn't a miracle pill or "weight loss" gimmick. The program taught me how to eat properly, exercise daily, and it included a nutrition shake to have once a day. I thought to myself, I can do that!
Coach Wendy's Results. Her progress was inspiring!
I worked full time, we had young children and we also had day care costs etc. so we didn't have a lot of extra money laying around for another "weight loss" product, as my hubby cautioned me. But I felt to myself that this was something we could make work. I made the investment to purchase the program and then we made our health a priority in our lives. I was determined this was going to work. So I took that chance, ordered the program, took before photos (no one's favourite), recorded my measurements and weight and couldn't wait to get started because I was not happy where I was at.
My husband has always been supportive in everything that we do. So when he saw how dedicated and determined I was to this he got involved as well. He was so supportive letting me take that 30 minutes each day to get the workout in I needed to do and watched the kids when I needed him too, so I could get it done uninterrupted. A little "me" time. He also helped me plan meals, cooked and helped prep meals too. He was very supportive of this new lifestyle change.
I completed my first round of 21 day fix and I was hooked. I was incredibly sore from the first week's worth of exercise sessions but I was loving this new lifestyle and the simplicity of the eating plan. AND, it was working! Along with the support in the accountability group and from my coach I was able to stick to this! The first round I lost 8 pounds and 12 inches! I was HOOKED!! Something that worked, something a mom of three could do, something that made me feel so much better.
First and second round results from 21 Day fix
After about 2 rounds of the 21 day fix it just became a natural part of my life. I was feeling happier, healthier, more confident. I couldn't believe how much better I was feeling. I was SO glad I took the chance on another "weight loss product" It was SO much more to that for me. It was teaching me how to eat balanced meals, teaching me I could feel stronger I was really excited to share this with others. I was excited to show other moms, friends and family that there is something out there that works to get to your goals. And something that is healthy and good for you. The shakeology was giving me so much more energy then I have ever had before, and it was helping to curb those cravings I was constantly having. It has definitely helped me shed these pregnancy pounds and I don't know what I would do without my shake everyday!
I feel the best I ever have in my whole life! I love that our kids are watching mommy take care of herself. Our whole family has cut out the processed, quick foods, and we're all eating healthy and making our health a priority
What a difference a year can make when you make your health a priority!
Now I get up every morning at 5 am to workout before work. I eat balanced meals and drink shakeology daily.

Since starting the 21 day fix last year I have tried other BeachBody programs such as P90X3, PiYo and Insanity.
Most recently I've been doing 21 Day Fix Extreme and loving those workouts too.
With the help of several different programs and Shakeology I have lost 35 pounds. I went from a size 12 to size 6. I gained energy, confidence, and have been helping others reach their goals as well by introducing these incredible programs and helping them along their journey. I had signed up to be a coach after 2 months of doing the 21 Day Fix program because I was so excited to show people something that works, and something they could do too! I love the products, and I get chills when seeing peoples before and after photos! I have learned so much in the past 10 months and I want to share this opportunity with others. It's so much more than weight loss products, it's the support you get from others as well. I love my full time job, but I LOVE this as well. What started off as a hobby has now grown into a passion! I have been able to help others get healthier, and it feels amazing! And to think I would have missed out on all of this if I Wendy didn't reach out to me ! Thank you HUGE Wendy!
