Check out this transformation! Lisa lost 18 pounds and 9.75 inches in 30 days with Country Heat. She was able to use the modifier when necessary and keep the moves low-impact, and she still saw great results!
"Country Heat allowed me to change my mindset about exercise and working out. You can have fun doing something other than playing sports. A person doesn’t have to be in condition to get in better shape—you can start right where you are (everyone can dance!) and progress from there. One of the best things about Country Heat is that it's easy on your joints. I saw amazing results all three months doing low-impact moves. On some moves I could increase the intensity, but on other moves I kept my movements low-impact and saw results."
My Story, I was active as a teenager and kid with sports, even as a young adult I still participated in ball. I met my husband when I was 20 we have been together since, we did everything back wards, kids, house then got married..lol. Since having my son and 6 mos later having my tubes tied I gained weight, i believe being home, I got bored. I finally went back to work full time. Between the stress of work and the kids and household wifely duties I still packed on weight. I started to gamble, I was lonely hubby worked a lot. not out of town but was always busy. I did a lot of things that made me for what I thought made me happy at the time but it didn't it just masked the loneliness and I started to pull away from friends,being lonely unhappy confined by my weight, I pretended to be happy, when we did go out.. we Never went out, stayed at home watching movies and having the drinks, bad eating habits(not eating) eventually caught up with me. I tried skinny pills(can't remember the name) I tried a wine like drink(all fruit), I been on weight watchers, I've done Herbal Magic(expensive), My unhappiness has lead to me and my hubby separating for a bit, we are now back working everyday to better ourselves. I have even tried working out with friends, but as we all know they get busy and can't show up. Which brings me to Beachbody. I have known my coach for a while as I was best friends with her sister, I knew her when she was struggling after having a baby with her weight, I met up with her again after a few years and WOW, her results were amazing! she asked me to try it . So I signed up for a challenge pk right away because I saw her results. Like some people I sorta used the containers and well, lol, the DVD's stayed in their package unused. I was attending the gym at this time so I figured if I half a$$ it ...it would still work. NOPE Not till Feb of 2015 did I see the light. She asked if I would be interested in coaching as I was seeing some results after rereading the book and using the containers properly. I hymed and hawed said maybe, but eventually signed as coach that day she asked. After being a coach for a day I decided to go 100% committed how could I show other it totally works if I wasn't using it fully, I lost 12lbs in 3 weeks. woohoo. Since then I have struggled for sure, out with friends having drinks kids want chips etc..I didn't have the mindset to say NO, I have been back and forth with certain numbers but my inches remain low..I thought awe a couple wont hurt , but the couple turned into sometimes the whole bag... I finally realized in the last month it is me who makes the choices no one else. To date I have lost 35 lbs, and still going 20 left to go!! Sometimes that one number stares at us and in my mind it sabotaged me , I cannot get past the number and I think about what happens once I pass that number? I have a # goal set, still working to get there. I feel amazing and taking better care of myself for my family and me :)
My struggle with self confidence started after having my kids.
I gained over 50 lbs within 2 years having my 2 boys back to back. My body changed drastically. There were countless days where I was down on myself for the way I looked, even crying when I had somewhere to go and didn't feel comfortable in my clothes. I didn't feel comfortable in my own skin.
I heard about the 21 Day Fix program from a friend. I was never a fan of "fad" diets but after doing a little research, and seeing the transformation stories, I was inspired. What did I have to lose?
Once I began the program, I was very satisfied with the nutrition plan. "I'm not even starving?", I would tell people, raving about this new "diet" I was on. By the second week, I came to the conclusion that it was more then just a "fix", it was the beginning of a lifestyle change I had committed to. I was given all the tools I needed0 to succeed. The containers were easy to use, I was never hungry, I had so much support around me and I was even starting to enjoy working out again. The workouts still kick by butt, in a good way, and I love the feeling I get after completing one of the videos.
I feel strong and have loved seeing my body begin to transform.
After my first round was over, I felt empowered to continue. The weight was falling off and my confidence was slowly being restored. My coach and the challenge group kept me on track and I really helped me change my thinking about food and how I was fueling my body.
Since then, I have lost a total of 25 lbs and I feel great! My clothes are too big (I NEED to do some shopping) and I am finally starting to feel like me again. I have all the tools I need to continue leading a healthy lifestyle.
We saw how 21 day fix was changing our friends life.
I think we both hit a point in our lives that we weren't happy with how we looked or how we felt on a daily basis and didn't want it to affect our kids.
Although we had always eaten fairly decent, we wanted to teach our boys how to eat properly and how to live a healthy lifestyle.
Doing the 21 Day Fix program together made those first couple of weeks in the beginning so much easier. We were not only accountable in our Facebook Challenge group run by our coach Jenn, but we were also accountable to each other daily.
We have our ups and downs like everyone else, but always remember that it's about progress not perfection.
Tom has lost over 50 pounds now with 3 rounds of 21 Day Fix. My personal goal was to tone. I've lost 14 pounds and toned up considerably.
Everyone in our house has benefited from starting this program. We all eat a whole lot better. Tom and I both have more energy and feel more confident in ourselves. We are really enjoying being more active again and that is reflected into our boys lives too!
Tom never used to have breakfast, now he is drinking Shakeology daily to start his day off with a good dose of nutrition and get his metabolism running. His psoriasis has improved greatly since he started drinking Shakeology.

My name is Wendy, I have been married to my amazing husband for 23 years and we have 3 children together that are 18,16 and 10. I have struggled with my weight for many, many years ! I have tried so many fads to lose weight and have gone up and down that scale so often that I became so depressed and angry with myself.
I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer 12 years ago and then told that I would be overweight forever by my doctor. Imagine someone giving you that news so of course I believed that for years.
Losing weight was a constant struggle with no thyroid so I started eating as a way to suppress my anxiety! I would grab comfort food as soon as my family were out of sight. I hid in closets and under covers so they wouldn't see me eating.
This lead to feelings of failure and a lack of self confidence.
But as life goes, something always happens to make you realize that you need a change. That moment hit me right in the face when we moved out west and took our first family trip to the mountains. While my kids were supportive and cheering me on I felt so embarrassed in front of them that I couldn't do a simple hike. That was my moment that I thought enough was enough.
So when a friend asked me if I wanted to try the 21 day fix I was hesitant about trying another thing that probably wouldn't work. But the only thing I had to lose was my ego. So I started with the 21 Day Fix program and began my journey. Wow, has it ever changed not only my life but my dear families lives as well. The container program taught me so much about food portion and what I could eat in a day!
The shakeology has given me more energy that I could ever imagine I would have! I don't sit on the couch everyday after work and watch TV. I am able to get out with my kids and do things. This program has changed my life and I can officially say I have learned new healthier habits and love this new lifestyle.
I have completed a full year of 21 Day Fix and have lost 55 pounds and 40 inches off my body! It has given me my confidence back that I have lost over the years !! The best thing is my kids are all making healthy choices for their lunches!! There isn't enough money in the world that can replace that feeling of accomplishment that just came from consistency of exercise and nutrition !
