Transformation - 21 day fix

SO I ended my 21 day fix and it was hard the first week getting use to eating all the time it seemed like. There was breakfast, snack, Lunch, snack and then dinner!!

I started out at 223.8 pounds and LOTS of large numbers for my inches (total 267.5 inches) and at the end of my 21 days I was 218 pounds and my measuring tape went down (total 242 inches)!

Not a super large amount of weight or inches lost in 21 days but for the fact that it was only 21 days it was FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!


I went out and got several workout outfits as I had NO workout clothes. I ended up with 4 pairs of bottoms, 4 tops and 2 sports bras that hold everything still.. LOL

I want to show everyone who has ever wanted to lose 10 pounds or even 100 pounds that it possible with the right mind set, the right tools and help from people like me who has and still right now large that it CAN be done!!

My dear friend from high school lost 122 pounds in 18 months and doing amazing.

I know there are a lot of quick fix fads out there and boy have I tried almost all of them, some worked for a bit, but when I stopped I gain double the weight back on.
With Beachbody, its not a pill, a drinks or a wrap or heck even a weight loss surgery (i tried the lapband..didn't work), this is a lifestyle change, rethink what to eat, how to eat and how much to eat.
Most people think you need to starve yourself, cut out all the carbs to lose weight, but let me tell you, that is NOT TRUE!!!
I ate Pizza last night..... 2 slices and I was done (shh..I even had a glass of soda) so eating right all day, then partaking in the dinner provided by a friend, I didn't over eat and today I worked out!

The 21 day fix is where I would suggest anyone to start, for me it was the best for not only the working out due to be not being in shape, but also taught me how to eat right!!


This is more than just the 21 day fix as I added on a few other things to try like the shakeology, samples of the different flavors and got the coach kit too!

Taking the leap. . . homeschooling here I come

SO the time has finally come to quit talking about it, going back and forth and just do it.
I will be when this school year ends pulling all 5 kids from the public school system and doing my own schooling.

I have just this year seen how my kids were bullied, teased or absorb the behaviors of the other kids around them everyday for at least 6 hours a day. Teach my children about our real history, how to really use math in everyday things, teach them several foreign languages so they are more versed.

My youngest is testing out as a 4th grader but in public school he is finishing up 2nd grade. He is super smart, always reading and asking questions and I want to let him go and keep learning as much as he wants and can. The schools won't advance him so he will be kept held back on his abilities and follow other kids his age, why?? Why not feed that brain and let him soar?!?

SO based on the public school system I would have a 10th grader, 8th grader, 5th grader, 4th grader and 3rd grader....... But what I will do is see what for the coming grade levels they still need more instruction on and go with that, but if they can do also higher grade levels in other areas, let them do that too. No point in having them do all 5th grade in every subject when they may excel in science or in reading and can do higher levels.

School drama

Every day I have to deal with at least half the 5 kids asking if they can stay home as they don't want to go to school anymore. My 2 oldest ones (9th grade and 7th grade) are the worst at it. They ask me every single day if they can stay home from school!?!

I think back to my school years and even tho I hated school with a passion and hated going knowing I was going to get bullied, I would have never asked my adoptive parents if I could stay home, maybe because I knew that would mean going to work with one of them and spending the day working instead of being in school.

I know school these days are much different then when I went and we actually learned stuff and today they don't seem to be learning much of anything.

I know I cant be the only one who has kids that beg to stay home or get home schooled am I??

Determination

👊BAM👊
And its only 11 am, thats how ya do it. Everything can be a workout. Do some cardio while doing laundery, doing the floors, washing dishes. Never just stand still.

I am DETERMINED to shake this fat right off my body, fill my body with healthy good foods!!
Looking forwards and never looking back as this is my only body and I no longer want to kill it.

I am gonna sleep good tonight!!

Toxic Free Living

SO many don't know but I run several home businesses and work on ones that I use myself for their toxic free products. Anything to better our home and bodies.
Have you seen or heard of how everything now days are full of toxins and how more and more popele in the world are getting sick, higher numbers of cancers, higher number of auto immune issues and other things that use to be on the very low end of the population??

Well much of what is produced today have chemicals and toxins that are unknown to us consumers, things like formaldehyde (used in prep of dead bodies), carcinogens (cancer causing), pesticides (used to kill bugs) and many, many more!

So what I have done and products that I use and now sell to help others change their lifestyle are:

Norwex - Cutting - edge products that not only reduces toxic chemicals from our lives when cleaning but also helps reduce our foot print for a more sustainable living. These products are made of a very high quality microfiber to help with cleaning up messes and general cleaning, the cleaning products also are free of chemicals like chlorine and ammonia that cause lung issues and only use enzymes.

doTERRA - Most essential oils on the market today are not regulated and can be full of fillers even tho the label says 100% pure. Yes there may be some pure essential oils in the bottle but also full of fillers too. doterra started in 2008 with a mission to gather and produce therapeutic-grade essential oils that come from places that the items grow the best, not just a place it can grow but a location in the world that you would get the best results for each product. These essential oils go through various testing to make sure each and every bottle we as consumers get is highest quality. They have and are backed with CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade label. These oils are safe for pets, babies, children, pregnant women, and adults. These oils some can be taken internally due to the safeness of the testing and quality of the oils.
