Happy New Year! New Year, New You!

Swing open the floodgates, the doors are OPEN!

The reason I’m so excited about this is because it started as my personal journey, and as I began to experience things and learn and grow, I realized, I’ve got to find a way to bundle this up and make it easy for someone else to do too!

So with you in mind, I’ve been working over that past 3 or 4 months on how to bring that to reality, and we’re actually here!!

So if you’re looking to not only lose weight (at least 10 pounds in the next 30 days or less!) and you’re open to learning how to make sustained healthy patterns and habits in your life, then my new program is definitely for you.

I won’t make this too lengthy, in case you’re not interested (which is totally fine!) but if you are, the doors are now open, so click the link to learn more!

The Easiest Way to Start 2016 Off Right!

Eek!! 2016 is almost here! If you’re anything like me, you’ve finally had your fill of the bon-bons and holiday cakes and it’s time to get to work!

New Year. New You.

I love the New Year! A fresh start. Clean slate. Moving on from mistakes or disappointments of 2015, and into new and promising horizons!

Have you chosen your 2016 word of the year yet? Ever done that??
Super easy but super powerful!

Think of an over-arching ONE WORD to describe what you want 2016 to be like for you.
Here’s a list of ideas just to get your gears turning (courtesy of myoneword.org)
See if any of these work for you, and if not, choose your own!

My word for 2016: Liberation.
You want it to be able to apply to all areas of your life, so take your time and choose wisely.

Let me know what you choose, or better yet, head over to my FB group, Worthy To Be Me, and share with us over there! Everyone’s been posting their words and it’s really cool to see what people are resonating with. 🙂

>> Now I promised in the subject line that you can look no further for how to shed that holiday weight. (And I’m right there with ya!)

I’m excited to share with you the launching of my new online program: Lose 10 Pounds in 30 Days…Or Less! I lay out exactly what, when and how to shed those holidays pounds, and then some!

If you’re interested, keep an eye out I’ll be doing a new post when the doors open TOMORROW, if not sooner! But you’ll be the first to know, and then you can gather up some friends to join us as well!

In the meantime, think about your 2016 WORD and share it with me. Can’t wait to hear!

P.S. Let me be the first to wish you a Happy New Year! Have fun and be safe however you end up celebrating tonight. 🙂

It begins today…

It’s never too late to make a change….in your health, business, career, faith, relationships, mindset etc. NEVER.

So today, that’s where I begin.

Combining two 30 day challenges to jump-start the development of life habits that will lead to greater success in my fitness, business and life.

30 Day Challenge #1The Whole 30. I’ve done one other Whole 30 challenge a few months ago and have kept some of the great eating habits I developed, but have allowed myself to slip back into some old routines, so it’s time to belly-up again!

30 Day Challenge #2The Miracle Morning 30 Day Challenge. I finished reading The Miracle Morning book by Hal Elrod last week and have already begun putting it into practice, but wasn’t necessarily tracking my progress and being super intentional about it. There’s a great questionnaire and self assessment you can do to make it really personal and to get the best value out of it. So exciting!

One of the things I love is that Hal explains is that most people fail in their long term commitments in developing new habits because they’re not set up properly to succeed with a plan from the beginning. He explains that 30 day challenges are split up into three 10-day phases, so you know more of what to expect:

  1. The first 10 days is where the excitement wears off and you have to push through to succeed.
  2. The second 10 days is where you’re beginning to form a routine, but it’s still so new that you have to be very intentional not to break the cycle.
  3. The last 10 days are where it begins to become fun, as you start noticing results and the habits start to become easier, but the battle isn’t over yet!

The 30 days is just the beginning, but it’s perseverance and persistence that will guarantee your results…if you keep with it!

Current weight: 155.6 pounds

My Goal in 30 days: 145 pounds

My plan is to make a video of my one daily exercise, which part of the Miracle Morning routine, and since I’m a Doctor of Physical Therapy I can demonstrate the proper techniques and how to benefit your body the best by what to do, and what not to do.

Watch this video for the first exercise: squats and squat jumps.

Here we go!

P.S. I’d love to have your support, encouragement and accountability along this 30 day journey, and if you decide you want to jump in on either the Whole30 or The Miracle Morning challenges on your own, let me know so I can support you as well! Thanks!
