My Journey – April 2012

Jun 25, 2019 | Featured, Fitness, Isagenix, Personal - development

My journey…April 2012 I was disgusted with myself. My son was almost 2. I was tired, sick, carb-overloaded. I did a detox and became vegetarian. June 2014 my daughter was 1.5 yrs old and there I was again, unhappy with my body. Dreading another detox & also noticing muscle atrophy, I found a nutritional cleansing system in August 2014 and started seeing results. October 2014 I decided to START working out, group training. 

December 2014 I finished a 30 day fitness challenge while traveling, & 3 holidays in between. 

May 2015, after seeing 2 friends do it, I entered my first fitness competition, with the help of my personal trainer, because I had no incentive to consistently workout. 

Nov 2015, I had welcomed carbs back into my life and needed a reset. I introduced more protein, water, fiber in my diet and butt-kicking workouts (thank you Cara)! 

I am on a muscle gaining mission. I love that our company makes staying in shape simpler that people do fitness competitions for FUN. Ha!#unleashyourinnergreatness

Falling From a High

“Mommy, did you cry when I was born?” Where did that question come from?  Is it because I cry at most of our family meetings?  Should I tell him the truth? Why wouldn’t I tell him the truth?  “No.  I didn’t cry when you were born.  (Feeling guilty...

Tonight I breathe in peace

Great discussion tonight after a long day in clinic, on the road, open house, and delayed bedtimes. I know I'm not the only one rudely awakened to the adjustment of going back to school, being more adjustment than expected. What a shock to the...

4 years ago today

July 31, 2018 4 years ago today, I made a seemingly small decision that would change me in ways I couldn’t even fathom at the time.  2014, I was still uncomfortable in my own skin, covering myself up at the beach.  After maternity leave, my husband...

Constant comparison

Constant comparison. Negative self talk. Thinking everyone else had it together while I was falling apart. Being my worst critic. Focusing on lack. Giving up on myself, my health, my happiness, my dreams since what I was doing wasn’t working....

Being Top 5
