How Coaching Creates BIG Smiles and More!

Caroline was bouncing up and down when I picked her up from daycare today!!
She was full of excitement for gymnastics picture day.

Yes it’s been hectic getting her to class each week…leaving work early and having to pull out my computer when she’s in class to finish newsletters, but it’s what I love to do!

I enjoy working so we can afford what we need and also have the extras!! Of course dance, gymnastics, swim lessons, and shopping isn’t getting cheaper so having some extra income is helpful. I never expected that extra income would come from sharing my fitness journey.

However, 3 years ago after starting home workouts and posting daily to stay accountable, I had friends ask me to help them get started. So I created support groups and shared my experiences and what I have learned throughout my journey.

I’ve created a part-time business that allows me to be home at night to tuck the girls into bed, do chores and even watch TV with Matt. No more hosting multiple weekly parties like I did with other part-time businesses. Instead I’m able to build this business in pockets of time throughout the day and check in with people through posting in the group, sending messages and voicemails.

There are some FUN in person events every once in a while…girls’ nights, local day trips, weekend trip to New Orleans and even a long weekend to the Dominican Republic. Yet for the most part this business is done wherever I am on my phone or computer.

It does take time and energy but encouraging people to progress to their goals, building confidence and growing daily makes it TOTALLY worth it!!

Here are some of the items my part-time BB income has paid for previously…
--Dance team practice and competition
--Trip to New York City
--New clothes
--Swim team and swim suit
--Kings Island trip
--Golf Cart Batteries

And here are some of the things my BB income will pay for in the future…
--Dance team practice and competition
--Swim team and swim suits
--Kings Island trip
--Hot tub cover
--Trips to South Carolina, Disney, Hawaii

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
