Seriously girlfriend, you are paying Way. Too. Much! 

I get it...

• I know you LOVE being able to stream your workouts from wherever you are.  
• I know you LOVE being able to make family friendly meals that fit your meal plan using the Fixate cooking show. 
• I know you LOVE being able to do the live workouts the Master Trainers do so you feel like you're right in class with them. 
• I know you LOVE the Challenge de Jour schedule so you never get Workout ADD.  
• I know you LOVE having the Beachbody Yoga Studio for those days when you need to take a little more care of your body. 
• I know you LOVE having access to all the meal plans and nutrition guides to help you stay on track and get results. 
• I know you LOVE the Spotify playlists from each trainer to listen to while you workout. 
• I know you LOVE the printable workout calendars and meal trackers to help you stay on track. 
• I KNOW YOU VALUE YOUR HEALTH. 

​And guess what.... I DO, TOO! 

But for real... YOU ARE PAYING WAY TOO MUCH!

I know nutrition can be super confusing. What plan do I follow? What's the latest trend? Should I go gluten free? Vegan? Aren't carbs supposed to be bad?

Here's a great example...

The word "vegan" is often confused with the word "healthy". YES, eating vegan CAN be super healthy, but it doesn't mean that EVERYTHING that's vegan is healthy.

A lot of my journey you can't see. It's been on the inside. It's the size of my smile while pinching my stomach. It's not having a legit meltdown while trying to find something in my closet that fits. It's feeling sexy in my own skin. It's being able to share pics like these and not cringe at the thought of hitting post. 
​

Ever hear the saying "I wish I were as thin as when I thought I was fat?"
​

Unfortunately, I could make a list of the asshole comments I've seen people post on other people's transformation pics...
​

• "A skinned rabbit has more meat than you." - said by a male complete stranger on one of my results posts
• "Your face looks old and saggy now." - said by a female complete stranger on of my ab posts
• "You look like a man with those muscles." - said on a friend's amazing P90X transformation 
• "Who are you trying to impress?" 
• "fake bitch.... photoshopped.... same day" - said by an old high school "friend" of the poster (who had also just asked her to be a nude model for him.....) 
• "I don't see much of a difference." 
• "It's just the lighting is different."
• "You're sucking in your stomach in one pic and pushing it out in the other." - said by a  fb "friend" about my Country Heat results 

​Let's face it, people can be real fucking assholes when they want to be.... usually when they're unhappy with themselves, directing their bullshit onto you, and comfortably hiding behind their computer screen. 

​But first... did you have any idea just how addicting sugar is? It's insane! Check out this pic! 

30 Days. 

That's all it took to lose THREE POINT FREAKING FIVE INCHES off my waist! 

30 days ago I was chosen by Beachbody to participate in a test group for a new workout program they'll be releasing later this summer.... country dance inspired... and while I was thrilled to be chosen, I was also a skeptic.

Turns out I was soooo wrong about this program... 

Today I'm celebrating a #NSV (Non Scale Victory!)

I felt confident enough to rock a midriff shirt yesterday at the Public Enemy concert! I can't believe the results I've had so far from this test group and I can't wait to share the final #'s with you next week... I may actually hit a double digit loss!! (And for real, where did this month go??) And I thought I would be ok wearing wedges until I found out the front of the VIP section was cobblestone. Should have brought some flip flops!! 

Here are my takeaways so far that you can do with ANY program...

If you had told me 3 weeks ago that I'd be having this much FUN and getting these results from dancing to country music in my living room for 30 min a day and following a simple meal plan (which includes wine and chocolate!) I'd think you were CRAZY!! 

And just being honest, I was also nervous I'd be wasting a month of my summer working out and measuring food and not being able to enjoy myself and go out and have drinks with friends. (Did I mention the workouts are only 30 min and you can have wine and chocolate!?) 

I love seeing what celebs eat... especially when it's something I eat, too!

When a business coach shared this Cosmopolitan article with me today I was so excited!!! Not only do I love seeing what celebs eat, it's even better when you find out they eat similar to you, including my favorite superfood shake that I've been drinking every single day for over 4 years! 

And can I just take a second and say how Ah-Mazing Candace Cameron Bure looks! Seriously.
