Is it just me or do Thursday nights feel like a night to splurge?!
We often order pizza on Thursdays. Is it due to lack of groceries or the-weekend-is-almost-here feeling? Idk!
Tonight we decided to resist the urge to splurge & picked up Core Life Power Plates (its greens, hummus & falafel ).
Busy busy Monday so I returned some text messages in between intense spinning intervals🚴🏻♂️ & fit in listening to our weekly Coach National Wake-Up training👩💻 while lifting💪🏼
Multi-tasking is NOT ideal 😆☝🏼.. especially if it involves me cooking🤦🏼♀️, but hey, we do what we can WHEN we can, right?! Just don’t text & drive.
Pets can be a LOT of work & require making sacrifices but for us, they’re a source of constant humor & loving on them is a form of stress release
If you get a stressful email/text/assignment, instead of turning to food, turn to your pet(s)
Am I right ?!?! 
So excited to try roller skating again!! Chalene & I grew up roller skating quite a bit but it’s been a LONNNGG time! She *encouraged* (aka bossed
) me & the girlfriends to get these
!
Wish me luck!! If nothing else, probably will have some good falls for insta stories
p.s. the wedges are my favorite by “Ipanema” from Amazon & leggings are from BB.
Didn’t get to finish my workout today.. only fit in 25 minutes BUT that doesn’t bother me. I don’t think it should bother YOU to shorten a workout if you have to either.
Something is better than nothing to keep your head in the game!
I personally think too many people don’t do a workout or finish a program because they get an all or nothing mentality.
How about we do our best and do better next time
Do whatever promotes consistency for you so your habits create a lifestyle 
Just love this vacation so far! I’ve been really unplugged aside from a few insta stories but wanted to plug in to social media real quick to share something on my mind. Let me know if you agree or if it helps u in any way.
I think there’s a fine line between focus & pressure. When you’re pursuing something that’s important to YOU, you’ll DECIDE to have focus and your efforts will be consistent.
When you’re pursuing something & it’s truly for someone else, either to please them or prove something, it will feel like pressure & stress.. And success will usually be short-lived or you’ll feel empty once you’ve met your goal.
Whatever you’re pursuing, do it for the reasons important to you. Keep reminding yourself you never give up on what’s important to YOU & every little step matters
Just a gut check! Finally after being home a week from vacation, I feel back to my normal self! While I always workout on vacations & eat pretty healthy, still the restaurant foods, switching time zones & long flights take SUCH a toll.. omg

Tips to lose the bloat post-vacation:
Drink lots of water
Get 8 hours of sleep
Work out
Avoid artificial sweeteners 
Avoid sugary foods
Avoid FODMAPs if you’re sensitive to them (small-chain carbs found in foods like wheat, onion, garlic, pears.. if sensitive to them, they can draw water into your intestines and ferment causing bloat)
If Dr approves, consider a cleanse or fast (do your research)
Get outside & move more
Limit/avoid alcohol (dehydrates you increasing bloat)
Watch your intake of soluble fiber that could be causing the bloating – oat bran, oatmeal
, beans, peas, fruits
“F i n d a new j o b & t a k e c a r e of y o u r s e l f” … a Doctor wrote on her patient summary form. The patient was a Teacher whose job was slowing tearing away at her health, her sanity, causing weight gain and negatively impacting her relationship with her fiancé. What a powerful “prescription” to receive. She read the form leaving the Dr office & the simple truth of it brought her to tears.
This is the story I heard the other day from a newer Coach who’s now already having great success (on track to earn a 6-figure income based on weekly pay right now) just 4 months into her business
… and she’s been building it WHILE still working full time
(a new teaching job btw). Not many have success this fast but many on our team have similar stories & it fuels me to know anyone CAN.
Maybe you already know this business isn’t for you & maybe you just need to ask your boss if you can work from home
🏠 1-2 days a week. Or maybe you need more details about options because you’re an all or nothing girl like me, maybe you didn’t know a LOT just changed where we don’t just service at-home fitness needs anymore, we have new nutritional supplements, & we have a lot more ways to serve others as of this Spring
. Former coaches are re-enrolling & it’s smart.
Either way, if your situation could use a RESET button
, don’t convince yourself you just need to suck it up. You always have choices.
Ask questions, pray about it, give yourself time to envision the possibilities
& decide to believe in yourself & trust the process.
If you want the scoop on this business, and you don’t have a coach, drop send me a message here.
Legal disclaimer: Beachbody does not guarantee any level of income or success with this business. Each coach’s success depends on his/her own efforts, skill & diligence.
So grateful to be able to spend so much time outside today! Don’t wish for that option, CREATE that option And I’m thinking it’s safe to say you all should move to the Toledo area now!! 
We’ve got a Lululemon, and we’ve got … 
well that’s all I can think of right now but it’s somethin’ 
If you focus more on gaining strength, improving performance, fueling energy, and being grateful for what you DO have and CAN do every step of the way, everything else starts to fall into place. You don’t need to do anything drastic.
Take *new* steps in the right direction every day and you’ll break some new ground. But you’ve got to be patient and trust the process
