Beach Day!

I decided to take my own advice from my last post - we headed out to the beach for the day!  It was a fun, relaxing day, just watching the kids play in the water (and chasing my 1 yr. old all over the place!).  Did a lot of swimming so got in some extra exercise as well as an extra large dose of Vitamin D!  It was a great day!

What have you done lately to rest your brain and just get out and enjoy life?!!

Spring!!!

I love Spring!  Ok, where I live, we don't really have spring.  It's pretty much summer year round.  BUT, it's just the time of year, and with Easter just around the corner, I'm in "spring mode".  And that doesn't mean, sit down and eat 5 or 6 Cadbury eggs a day for the next month!  I mean, get outdoors and enjoy some fresh air - even open up your windows and doors and air out the house.  Get out and move!  Go for a walk or run, head to the beach or lake or whatever water is nearby, even if it's just the hose in the front yard, take the family out for a picnic lunch at the park or somewhere.  Just get out and enjoy the outdoors.  Move your exercise outside if you can, the fresh air will do you wonders!  And if you haven't been exercising all winter, well, I'd say NOW is the time to get started!  Let me know if you need help getting started with something. 

Enjoy the day!!!

Shake 'N Share

Team Beachbody is still celebrating Shakeology's 2nd Birthday!  And so in the month of April, Team Beachbody is having a Shake 'N Share Promo!  Here's how it works.  To take advantage of the Shake 'N Share Promo, you will need to sign up as a "preferred customer".  To do this, you will follow this link here and go through a few simple pages of sign up.   By being a "preferred customer"  you will officially become a Beachbody coach, BUT you do NOT have to actually coach anyone (unless you want to.) You will, however, get a 25% discount on ALL products including Shakeology.   There is a $39.95 sign up fee (tax deductible) and after the first month, there is a $15/month maintenance fee (again, tax deductible.) Even with the fees, it is STILL CHEAPER to buy Shakeology this way. Retail cost is $120/month for a month supply (1 shake/day.) Coach price is $90/month. PLUS on home direct, you get free shipping. This saves me $10 additional/month. Also, when you order home direct, you'll get the Shakeology workouts free the first month and a shaker cup free the second month. Oh...and best part? You can cancel anytime...for real! There is actually a 30 day bottom of the bag guarantee. It's NO risk.   Oh...AND...if you refer 3 people who then purchase Shakeology from you, guess what?!?!?!?! YOURS WILL BE FREE!!!! (You will make $30 commission every time a friend or family members buys it.)  Ok, now that you've signed up as a "preferred customer" (coach), click on this link here to fill out the form for the Shake 'N Share Promo and you will be sent 3 additional free gifts to help you get started in sharing with others about this wonderful product.  AND, you will even have opportunities to receive more free gifts every time you refer Shakeology to someone and they decide to give it a try! 

Even if you don't want to sign up as a "preferred customer" and take advantage of the free stuff, you can still give Shakeology a try.  Email me with your name, mailing address, and flavor preference (chocolate or greenberry) and I'll send you out a sample.  If you're one of the first 6 to contact me, I'll also include a DVD about Shakeology!  Hope to hear from you soon!

A New Start!

Ok, if you've been following my blog, you know I started P90X in January.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE P90X!  It has been an awesome three months!  I've had pretty good results with it, too.  I lost a total of 9 lbs. (I know, not a dramatic weight loss, but I know I gained a lot of muscle though) and lost 10 inches over all as well as 5% body fat.  All in all, I am pleased with my results - I've toned up considerably and have increased strength and endurance.  So, what's next on the agenda?  INSANITY!!!  Time to start something new!  Actually, we're not doing a straight round of Insanity but combining it with P90X as well as doing running 3 times a week.  We want to get back to running 5k's and I've really missed my early morning running.  We started this past week, but, unfortunately, I got sick with this nasty flu bug that's been going around.  I took three days off and did a light workout this morning.  Hoping to get back to Insanity/P90X on Monday!  Want to join me?  Sign up to have me coach you for FREE and we can keep each other accountable along this journey.  Either way, I'll be posting here about my progress.  So check back to see how I'm doing!
