What you have now vs What you Want Most

One of the things I love about UK and Beachbody is they both encourage professional development....I have a new book that I'm listening to from daycare to work and this is what I heard that stuck with me today....

"In life there are only three things you can control...your actions, your reactions and your mindset. That's it nothing more. So instead of whining about the things that are out of your control...focus your energy on what you can control... your attitude, choices, emotions, goals, visions, dreams, desires, and discipline. Discipline is choosing between what you have now and what you want most."

I remember 3 years ago I was not happy with my body...I sat at the pool "whining" to myself that I couldn't get to the gym and I'd never have my pre-baby body back.

Then I saw a friend post her pics from doing home workouts and I decided to take control and change my attitude. I COULD get my body back..It would be hard work and I'd have to commit to working each day for 30 minutes and following a meal plan....But I'd still get to eat pasta and drink wine and I'd have what I wanted!!

So I just got over not being able to go to the gym and took action at home. I got started and never looked back!! I lost 10 pounds and then friends asked what I was doing and if I would help them. I started an accountability group in Facebook to pass on what I had learned and give support.

I'm still hosting these groups each month because I still have friends asking for help and telling me how the group support really works. Plus it helps me stay focused and committed to my own goals!!

I have another group starting next Monday, March 13 that will start with goal setting and meal planning and then provide support and accountability for 30 days. If you are a busy mom that can't find time to go to the gym and wants to lose 10-20 pounds like I did...
Let me show you how you can get results at home with a 30 minute daily workout and balance meal plan!!

There are 10 spots in the group starting on Monday, March 13. If you want to be included in the support group, email me at atabb01@gmail.com or complete the application below for more information.

Shakeology No Bake Cookies

Over the weekend, I made Shakeology No Bake Cookies (or balls). I prefer to make these as balls rather than flattening them as cookies. I've made them with both Chocolate and Vanilla Shakeology and both are good. Using the Vanilla Shakeology actually creates Peanut Butter Balls...you don't really notice the vanilla...it just mixes in. My girls and husband prefer the Peanut Butter Balls, but when I am craving chocolate...this is a great option! The girls love helping with this recipe and it's super easy! Ingredients: 1 cup Chocolate or Vanilla Shakeology 1 cup all-natural peanut butter 1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats 1/2 cup raw honey How to Make: Combine ingredients into a medium bowl, mix well with rubber spatula or by hand. Roll mixture into balls about 1 inch in size. Put into container. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours. Enjoy cold.

Home Workouts brought my Pre-Baby Body & Confidence Back

After having my two girls, I struggled with getting to the gym as its daycare hours didn’t work around my schedule. The best day for me was Saturday morning and thenI had to gather my iPad, earbuds, towel, diapers, wipes and two girls. By the time we were buckled into the car, 30 minutes later, someone had to go to the bathroom. Then once we got to the gym, I did an hour of cardio while watching Mad Men and walked around the equipment trying to recall sessions with a personal trainer years ago. Then a week later, we did it all over again and during the week, I walked outside a few nights a week. My eating habits were somewhat healthy, but I finished my daughter’s mac and cheese and nibbled on her pretzels and goldfish during snack time. As a result, I didn't lose weight, I was tired and I was somewhat depressed as I missed the time and luxury of going to the gym before they were born. Then a friend posted her results from 21 Day Fix and I asked her a few questions th

Almond Joy candy vs. wonder whip

As Halloween approaches, candy options are more and more tempting. Ok, maybe candy is tempting all year around!! You want to think those little pieces of chocolate won't affect your weight goals, but they can. Especially when it's hard to just eat one or two. Personally, I would much rather have several bites of dessert than just one, so these wonder whip solutions are an amazing alternative to a few pieces of candy!! They are much more filling and satisfying!! Whip up a bowl today and give your sweet tooth what it wants!! Thanks to Ilana Muhlstein for sharing this recipe and her registered dietitian knowledge through the 2B Mindset Nutrition program and certified mentorship training! B oth the Almond Joy candy and wonder whip have 235 calories, but you get a WHOLE cup with the whip rather than just two bites!! Ingredients: 1 Cup 0-2% Plain Greek Yogurt 1 TBSP unsweetened Shredded Coconut 1 TBSP Cocoa Nibs 2 tsp. cocoa powder
