Today's the DAY!!! Hopefully

So I have a dr.'s appt today that is a follow up from surgery. I'm SO hoping this is the LAST appt!  I'm hoping to be released to do everything.  Pain wise, I  can def. still feel it and there are things I cannot do.  

I found out one during one of the 21 Day Fix workouts.  Nothing like feeling like a total badass, and then just stopping at staring at the computer monitor wondering how exactly you're going to do THAT?!

As far as the 21 Day Fix and Shakeology--things are still plugging along. So far, I love it!  I don't feel like I'm being deprived of food, I like the food I can have and it's pushing me to try stuff that even I've never had before.  I can def. see this being more of a lifestyle change than I had originally anticipated.

Why Beachbody?

Of all the questions, this one might be the easiest.  Why beachbody?  Because even though I'm told I'm not incredibly overweight or out of shape, I'm still self conscious and going to the gym, where people stare and normal "rude" behavior is pretty typical, is my own personal idea of hell.  I much prefer to be able to work out at home, where I can shut a door or where the people who see me working out already know and love me and are on my side.  

I didn't know alot about beachbody until I started following another coach, Olivia, on instagram. After seeing her pictures, I knew if I could be in half as good of shape as she is, I would be happy!  From following her I learned about shakeology, beachbody programs, and clean eating.  I finally decided to dive in and coach a few weeks ago.  I'm not expecting it to be easy, I'm expecting that out of 100 people I meet, 98 will think I'm probably full of crap or trying to sale them an empty promise.  

The truth?? I love the shakes with shakeology, I love the programs, but more than any of that, I LOVE the motivation and support that I've found in fellow coaches, others who are using the programs and just the beachbody community in general.
