Time to get the tools for 80 day obsession NOW IS THE TIME to create a new, healthy obsession!!  What does it mean to be obsessed?!?!

It's a week until Thanksgiving and I am determined to go into the holiday strong and on track with my health and fitness.  I read that the average person gains 5-7 pounds during the holidays and I'm determined NOT to be an average person!  I want to maintain the results I've worked so hard for and not be tired so I can make tons of memories with my family!!  The holidays are hectic but rather than flying through them without a thought, I'm taking a few minutes each day to think about what I will do with my time that day and how I'm achieving my goals for the week.  This week I have three lunch meetings so I'm planning in advance to determine what I need to eat before and after the meetings to resist eating the entire dessert and large portions.   I won't deprive myself from pumpkin pie or mashed potatoes but I will limit myself to a few bites rather than the whole piece or a large pile!  I will write out what I eat throughout the day in my p

It started more than three years ago when I wanted to lose 10-15 pounds after having my two girls.  Not only did I want to lose inches in my waist and hips for my clothes to fit better but I also wanted increase energy and confidence. I wasn't able to get to the gym more than once a week due to the gym daycare schedule and activities with my girls.  I tried walking outside but never saw results which caused emotional eating of ice cream each night.  Then a friend posted her results from a workout program she was doing at home.  It was a 21 day challenge which included 30 minute daily workouts and a portion control meal plan.  I asked her for more details and researched about the shakes.  I couldn't find any major red flags so I decided to try it knowing there was a 30 day money back guarantee.    After the 1st round, I was obsessed!! I loved the trainer and the workouts. I was sore each day and it felt great!! I lost 5-8 pounds
