Yes, I am an online health and fitness coach, but no, I am not perfect.
I have been letting my sugar and food addictions be in control for too long now.
Last year about this time I was almost 20 pounds lighter and feeling my best. Today, I don’t feel that great. Even though the habits I have created keep me eating lots of fresh veggies and fruits, choosing better protein and carb options, and still eating from my rainbow containers…. I just keep giving into temptations and cravings and eating a lot of sugar, simple carbs, alcohol – and way too often. Like several days per week. I KNOW I have the power to beat these cravings and addictions, but for whatever internal reason, I keep letting them win and sabotaging myself. Even though I have steadily gained weight slowly over the last year or so, I still maintain a great workout regimen of at least 6 days per week. I know I am still strong, but I wouldn’t call myself “fit” anymore. I WANT TO CHANGE THAT!!! Every week it is the same story for me… Monday I start out strong with conviction that this week will be the week I decide to WIN again. I do really well for the first few days, and then a craving hits in the evening, or someone brings in a treat to work, or I simply walk past the cookie jar and instinctively grab one or two. Then I decide to pour myself a drink or two after work… and then I get “tired” and don’t want to cook and order in (even though I have a meal planned and purchased at home). By the weekend, I am off the rails and have more than eaten the calories I have burned during my exercise and we start it all over again on Monday.

I AM OVER IT!!!!!

I have been thinking about doing the Ultimate Reset for probably around 3 years now… but for one reason or another, keep telling myself it wasn’t the right time. Recently I have watched a lot of coaches and even one of our celebrity trainers complete the reset and realized it was the universe’s way of telling me this was what I needed! I ordered it before I could think about it any longer. Immediately felt nervous, but also excited. I am ready to drop some of this weight and get my cravings and addictions under control and move FORWARD instead of stalling.

You’re probably wondering – what is the Ultimate Reset?

“The Beachbody Ultimate Reset is more than just a cleanse. Instead, it’s a 21-day process of eliminating certain foods and toxins from your diet, cleaning up your system, relaxing the nervous system, removing coffee and caffeine, and providing antioxidant support for the immune system.* It’s not designed to be easy. It’s designed to work. You’ll learn to shop for, prepare, and enjoy healthy, nutritious meals as you follow a carefully designed eating plan and supplement program.

After just 21 days, the Beachbody Ultimate Reset can help you feel dramatically better, stronger, and healthier—physically, mentally, and emotionally.*”

Honestly, exactly what I need. This program isn’t cheap and it won’t be easy – which is exactly what is going to keep me dedicated to it and see it through from start to finish. I KNOW I am capable of doing this. I KNOW I can re-gain control of my thoughts and actions. And I KNOW this is going to help me.

I officially start on Wednesday of this week, so I have already planned out my meals through Sunday (only tweaking the meal plan that is provided a little bit), I have shopped, and I am READY! My last two days of “normal” eating and exercise will be today and tomorrow and then it is ON!
