*BeCauSe oF You, I DiDN'T GiVe uP*

Hey everyone!  It has been awhile...Hope everyone is doing good!  Life has been in turmoil at our house but I will share more on that later.  Today I want to share my updated Beachbody Story, so here it goes.

As I contemplated my story about why I wanted to a Beachbody Coach, I didn’t know where to start but then I remember I had wrote a story after my first Beachbody challenge earlier in this blog and also as follows: 
“My Beachbody story started in October of 2015 when I joined a challenge Lean to Halloween which was sponsored by a good friend.  At first I was apprehensive of doing everything required for the challenge, I was ok with the eating healthy and exercise parts just not the Shakeology part.  I don't like the thought of drinking my meals and joining just another weight loss fade or scheme was my reasoning.  After a week into the challenge I decided what the heck I will try this Shakeology thing just for the month, if I don't like it I can always discontinue using it after the challenge, right?
Well the challenge ended November 2, I didn't take after pics then just weight and measurements after my 21 days because I was like I didn't lose much so why take the pictures, waste of my time!  I also didn't compare measurements until today!  Oh my!!! Shocked at my discovery... I have lost 7.8 pounds, 1 1/2 inches on my waist, 1 1/4 inches on my hips, and 1/4 on my thighs...WOW!
So for my WHY...
The reason I started on this journey to be a better healthier person is for my 6 year old daughter.  She needs a mom to be there and to help her learn to be healthy.  Besides I need to be there for all of her activities and to just be there to watch her grow. 

I also do this for myself.  I want to feel confident again.  Be healthy.  When I started I was the heaviest I have ever been even heavier than when I was 9 months pregnant, not ok with me!”

After that challenge I continued on my path with Beachbody and tried being a coach for a while but just did not have the time or motivation.  I had lost my motivation due to the fact that I was experiencing some medical issues. 

On October 3, 2016 I was finally had a diagnosis, Fibromyalgia and Bursitis. After finally having a reason, per say, I can finally move on and be a fighter!  After reading my previous story I remember why I am passionate about Beachbody.  Also, I know now that I need to be an active Beachbody coach to help people be a healthier person.

So I can only hope for you to join me on this journey with me to become healthier person inside and out.
