It is so hard to believe 2.5 years ago, I make a decision to change my lifestyle and started my fitness journey! It was a step that totally changed my life and my family’s life! 
As a mommy of 2, an infant and a 1 year old, a wife, an ER nurse, and taking masters classes, I didn’t think I had time to even focus on my own health. I was putting my own health to the side to focus on everything else going on.  Then I realized that all I was doing is making myself more unhappy, uncomfortable, and insecure of myself! Yes, I did this to MYSELF! 
How foolish of me to make myself unhappy in this way because all this does is affect my family and how everyone else looks at me.  If I cannot love myself, how am I to expect anyone else to be happy with me? What kind of role model was I being for my family?? 
Do I want my kids to grow up and not put their health first… Should I make it OK to be unhealthy just because its the EASY and convenient way out??
As I made the choice to let my health and fitness go away, I realized a lot.  My family counts on me, and in order for me to be around as long as possible for my family and kids, and do all the physical activities we should do as parents, I changed my way of thinking!
I decided to start eating clean, workout out to a home fitness program to save me time and money for gym membership and gas going to and from, and following the guide that was given to me by Beachbdody.. along with that, I incorporated this health shake meal replacement called SHAKEOLOGY that was introduced to me!
What is Clean Eating?!
I am simply eating fresh veggies, fruits, and lean proteins like lean turkey burger, chicken, fish (tilapia, cod, tuna), and lean red meat 1 time per week.  I intake healthy fats like coconut oil, avocados, and raw almonds.  I do my shopping outside the isles at the grocery store because that is where I find my healthy food!
WHAT IS SO GREAT ABOUT SHAKEOLOGY?!
It gets tough to find meals with so much nutrition and health benefits- In order to find a meal like this that is ALL- NATURAL, you would be spending tons of money at the grocery store, and buying tons of ingredients.  What Beachbody has done for us is made our lives easier and did the work for us so we have an easy, convenient, healthy, nutritious meal that gives our bodies everything it needs!

HOW HAS SHAKEOLOGY HELPED ME?!
This is so easy for me to talk about because literally, it has helped me in sooooo many ways.  From the convenience of this health nutritious meal that I could intake rather than skipping my meals because I was too busy too eat from the improvement of my digestive system, the energy I gained from all the super foods and natural ingredients, to the cravings that I never thought I could over come.  I had HUGE issues with binging on peanut butter and ice-cream in the evenings. 
I would do so well during the day, and then BOOM, Im binging again.  With Shakeology, I make it with natural peanut butter or PB2 so it takes exactly like my ice-cream, but its healthy!
This is huge for me!! I never thought I could have something satisfy me and find a healthy alternative to something so terrible for me! But I did… I call it my little miracle in a cup! 🙂 
WHY TELL EVERYONE ABOUT SHAKEOLOGY?!
WHY NOT?!? It has changed my life, it keeps me on track with my nutrition which is 80% of my results, and I know it has helped many many other people!! 
Just like when you go to the movies or a good restaurant.. you tell everyone about it right?!?! Well, here you go!! I want to share this with everyone because I believe it  can benefit EVERYONE!! 
I have helped hundreds of people reach their goals because I am able to share my story and what Shakeology, our home fitness programs, clean eating, and support and accountability in our challenge groups have done!
I am not alone in this transformation story… All those people who gave it a try, and did not give up on their health, now stand beside me with a transformation! 
My team and challengers are absolutely amazing and have incredible stories themselves to share!! One thing we all do is drink Shakeology EVERY day to give us our daily dose of dense nutrition and super foods, to give us that easy convenient meal to keep us on track of our goals, and to use as a healthy alternative of what could potentially be harmful to your body if you kept eating that particular food.
