NEW TO MY BLOG? LET ME SHARE MY STORY!
Hey everyone!! My name is Rebecca Miller and I am mom and wife first to Shawn and Tony! I love what coaching has done for me, because it literally saved my life!
I was someone who was SUPER addicted to the junk food – meaning I ATE 36 candy bars a week, tons of ice cream, and would eat entire pizzas.
Was I always like this?
NOPE – I actually used to be really fit and thin and even had abs! BUT after a surgery in 2006 where my fallopian tube got twisted, it had to be removed. It got as big as a softball and hurt like crazy and my health went downhill from there.
I couldn’t do any exercise for 6 weeks while I healed, and I thought no biggie! BUT…I started to discover how easy it was for the junk food to appear. Fast food for dinner was convenient, and it led to me watching movies with snacks and here came the chocolate and ice cream….and the more I done it…the more I craved it! So, I got worse over a course of 10 years. I let this go on…I let these bad habits take over my life! ☹
I gained 70+ lbs., got a bad digestive system, became diabetic, and started to have lots of depression with my health. I was a new mom at the time and when I played…I struggled to get up and run with him…I felt awful and was tired ALL THE TIME. I honestly felt like a failure. How could I let it get this bad was my constant thought over and over.
I went from 135 to 215. I honestly thought I couldn’t lose the weight because I was too far gone with my habits. I blacked out at work, went once a month to the bathroom, and the cravings JUST GOT WORSE! I felt hopeless and all the excuses came as to why I shouldn’t do anything, BUT I found exactly WHY I should with coaching.
It allowed me to discover my WHY…a serious deep emotional connection to be consistent with these GOOD HEALTHY HABITS.
What was my WHY POWER?
I couldn’t die from diabetes and leave my son Shawn. How could I pick junk food over him?? So that became my solid motivation. I never quit…I struggled hard core, but I played that thought over and over until fitness and healthy nutrition became a constant habit.
You learn with coaching that habits, if done long enough, can set up new routines and it did just that!
Coaching provided my WAY OUT of these habits. It is the reason I can say I lost 55+ lbs. and 26.5 inches because it showed me healthy exercise, it changed my focus from the junk food, and taught me how to eat in the right portions, PLUS I gained a fantastic support team to lean into.
I felt alone before I started. When I signed up and became a part of the fit family…my life changed…my physical and mental health changed too! I didn’t have the spousal support like most do, so I was doing this by myself and you know what? I came out stronger because of it.
So, when I shared my results...people would ask me…OMGEEEEE What are you doing? It honestly seemed like a no brainer to help others believe they could achieve this too!
I have been doing this for 4.5 years now and guess what? There are people who need help like I did. I needed support, these programs that are so laid out, and I definitely wanted to this at home because I didn’t like being started at the gym LOL. Coaching can be done anywhere…I do it sitting on the coach, curled up in my blanket, with my laptop! LOL Seriously…you can set your own time for this biz.
You know life is different now since starting Beachbody.
My A1-C is normal, I am regular now, my junk food cravings are gone thanks to Shakeology, and the BEST PART – I get to run and play with my son with NO struggles! THAT IS LIVING LIFE MY PEEPS! I didn’t want to miss out on my only child’s life because I was too addicted to the junk food! I have inspired a lot of people to take charge of their health and fitness and that inspires me to keep going. This business is rewarding on soooo many levels…it makes the soul feel good knowing you can change a life! I am forever grateful for the coach who shared these programs with me…it literally was my saving grace!!
So if you are on the fence…ask me questions! I would love to help you get started and feel as good as I do!
