WHAT MADE ME REALIZE I HAD TO CHANGE...
So let me paint a picture for you...One day little man was getting faster and faster at learning to walk. What a surprise and wow, boy he sure is growing up. I am in such awe of him. ππHe lights up my day with his smile, his personality, and his love. I have never met a sweeter kid than my little man Shawn.
So he is walking and I was sitting at 215 lbs. at the time and you know what...it was tough keeping up!! WHAT??!! πππ±π±π±
I thought...how is this possible...he isn't really moving THAT fast and is just learning!!!!??? How in the world am I supposed to keep up when he gets better at this? π³π³
That excitement turned to fear for me as I saw him running away in a crowded mall and I am losing sight of him because I am too tired to keep up.
Over dramatic?
Maybe...but that is how I saw it in my head.
I was really struggling just bending over and holding him because he was just getting bigger. He wasn't going to stay small forever, you know??
I had really thought about my future with him and I didn't like what I saw. I truly desired to be out there playing with him - not just sitting and watching him.
I wanted to run and chase him. I wanted to climb in tree houses with him. I wanted to be the active parent and I wanted to be healthy for him without feeling like I was gasping for air.
I wanted him to have FUN with me...not me watch HIM have fun...but doing it together is what it was all about to me.
So why didn't I just lose the weight?
My struggle was fear of failure and fear of not knowing where to even begin. I felt that I was to far gone for me to save because my weight was over the 200 lb. mark.
I was being "comfortable" in my uncomfortable situation and believe me that isn't healthy either! I tried to walk and do better, but that got me down to 195...not bad, but it kept fluctuating and I wasn't consistent at all. :(
So when I finally decided to go all in and get healthy for not only my Shawn, but for ME...it was a major turning point in my life. π―π―
I became a Coach to hold myself accountable and I had a program that helped me with portion control, which I so desperately needed, because I ate everything bad in sight and I was eating tons of it! I am a major junk food lover.
But this program taught me how to do 30 minutes of exercise each day, which helped me feel much more confident!!
So now, I love sharing the success I had with this program and other programs I got, because I believe it can help so many mom's out there just wanting to be the active parent. We are meant to live happy healthy-active lives as God intended it to be.
My result in 9 months?? I dropped 40 lbs. and 26.5 inches and you better believe I am the active parent now! Today it is over 55 lbs and 26.5+ inches and I keep just gaining muscles! Boom chicka boom!! π
Shawn tells me he needs to rest and at 37 years old, I feel pretty darn amazing these days, because I CAN KEEP UP NOW!! The result of taking care of yourself when you don't want TO (because Yessssssss I was full of excuses), can be live changing. ππ
Let me show you the ropes and what I did to lose the weight. Heck you can even be a Coach like me to help yourself stay accountable... But I really want someone who is looking to be long-term with their goals because this chick is NOT about quick fixes!
This business is rewarding in soooo many ways my friend... I mean for realz... We GET TO change lives!!!! πππ
So are you ready to become the active parent in your house!?
Let's chat, because coaching and these programs made me say YES to a better life and for that... I became a better person!!
Who wouldn't want that??
