21 Day FIX : the GO-TO blog for the BEST start! RECIPES * REVIEWS * RESULTS

Hey everyone!!

As you all know... we have been SO excited about the 21 Day Fix... the BRAND NEW Beachbody program designed and introduced to us by Autumn Calabrese. She is a celebrity trainer & national-level bikini competitor. She is a rising star in the fitness community because she is helping SO MANY people lose weight and get fit with a SIMPLE portion control and consistent exercise program. 

So... lets cut to the chase!!! I just finished my FIRST full week of the program. 


It was EVERYTHING I hoped for and more
... really!

So let me just jump in.

FITNESS REVIEW:
I absolutely LOVE the layout of these workouts. 
  • Different workout every day.
  • 30 minutes long. 
  • Active recovery day is YOGA and is SO relaxing.
  • The workouts are broken up into a series of SETS. So... for instance... {in one workout} you will do 8 rounds total. In each round there are 2 exercises... and usually you repeat each exercise twice. Its simple. You have a 10-30 second rest period in between exercises. 
  • There is a GREAT modifier and ALWAYS an option to STEP it up for a greater challenge.
  • Autumn is the PERFECT mix of motivator & cheerleader.
  • Long enough to be CHALLENGED but still quick enough to not be drawn out (no endless chatter).



NUTRITION REVIEW:
This is the most GENIUS meal plan I've ever followed.

  • You eat regular food!
  • Container portion control system is EASY.
  • You can have wine and chocolate ;)
  • You do NOT go hungry.
  • You LEARN how to maintain your results and FUEL your body!
Here are some of my meal examples! This is FUN!

Below is ONE day of FOOD!


Here are some of my other favorites!

Typical Breakfast: 1 red, 1 purple, 1 yellow:

Ezekiel Toast, Turkey Bacon & Strawberries!







 Typical Snack: 1 red & 1 green:


Greek Yogurt with 1 Stevia packet & Carrots!


Typical Lunch: 1 red


Shakeology with water!
...lately I have been drinking the new Strawberry! 



Typical Dinner: 1 red, 2 green, 1 blue:

Baked Chicken, Brown Rice, Green Beans & 1/4 Avocado!


"Dessert" ideas: 1 orange 1-2 tsp:


Raw Sunflower Seeds & Almond Butter! 
{Looks weird but it is YUMMY!}




"Dessert" idea #2: 1 yellow, 1 orange, & 1-2 tsp:


*Poor Girl Butter Cake*

1/2 Whole Wheat English Muffin, Raw Sunflower Seeds & Almond Butter! 
{Looks REALLY weird but it is YUMMY!}



Now let's talk about results....

This is just ONE week in... literally 7 days. 

This is  my friend, challenger, and fellow coach Anna. Follow her on Facebook. She is a mom of TWO and busy military wife. She has some GREAT core progress in just 7 days! Sounds crazy >>> but this program is legit. 


Then there is me... same thing... many inches lost and leaning out for sure! Again.... 7 days!


We aren't perfect & we aren't claiming to be. Just giving credit to this program because it is simple, it is healthy & it is effective. 

Anna & I are both in a category where we don't have a lot of weight to lose (although it is definitely there -- trust me)... but this program is for ALL ends of the spectrum. Girls like me who would love to LEAN out, tone, possibly lose 5-15lbs. And then there are people like Deon. 

He did 10 rounds of the 21 Day Fix and lost 111lbs!!! 

So awesome! And don't forget... there IS an excellent
modifier. There is an OPTION to make it harder. So literally... this is for ALL fitness levels. 

My current Challenge Group is doing such great job! They are living the healthiest they ever have in a COMMUNITY of support. If you are interested in joining umm next group -- contact me ASAP. They ALWAYS fill up but they are the KEY to lasting results!

I cannot WAIT to update you all after WEEK TWO!

Be sure you hit *SUBSCRIBE* on the top right of the blog to follow!

Hope to connect with you on Facebook too!! Regular posting and encouragement there!

Don't be afraid to reach out! I am happy to help however I can! Don't think... OH I could never get results... I promise you... you can. 

Here is a little idea of WHAT my private Facebook Challenge Groups are about!


Thanks for reading!!

New COACH Training!

March is ALMOST here!! I'm SO READY & CRAZY excited to announce that I'm launching my NEXT Coach Apprenticeship Training!

What if I told you I will be personally mentoring a small group of hand-selected coaches! Interested? These coaches will be able to take advantage of a step by step process which will help you go from Newbie Apprentice >> to Diamond Level Leader >> to creating the {{foundation}} for a 6 Figure Dynasty of your very own in just 90 DAYS!

These coaches are on MY team! 

THREE things to consider before applying:

#1 - You must be willing and ready to get in the best shape of your life using Beachbody programs and/or products {P90X, T-25, 21 Day Fix!!, Shakeology, etc} - I will be coaching you not only on the business, but on best practices in nutrition and fitness. NO NEED to be at your goal body already, but you must be willing to lead by example and be a product of the products! (I signed up as a coach to FINALLY get the long term accountability I NEEDED to start...and FINISH P90X!! I previously quit P90X TWICE! haha)

#2 - You must FULLY commit to completing ALL coach training assignments and agree to living OUTSIDE of your comfort zone! Change is not EASY… but I was able to create TOTAL FREEDOM with this business and I am helping others to do the SAME so that they can fit their work around their LIFE, rather than fitting their life around their WORK.

#3 - You must be COACHABLE & COMMITTED. I'm committed to abbreviating your learning curve and will openly share what I've learned over the past year to master this business! Essentially, this info is LIQUID GOLD… and I will be giving it to you for FREE, as I invest my time into you and help you create and establish your own at-home business. What I require in return is for you to meet me half way and want, will for and work for your success as much as I do! 




IF you have longed for more freedom, more financial stability, to make a difference and to be connected to people who are doing the same… This just may be the opportunity you have been looking for.

Does this scare some people away? YES! That is GOOD! I want those people to join me who have that BURN in their gut for something GREATER. I was that person... that is WHO I am looking for!

Being a NEW Coach is VERY fresh in my mind. I was able to achieve in ONE year what takes others 3+ years to accomplish. My income grows EVERY month --- and it is RESIDUAL... meaning... I take a VACATION and I still get paid in growing amounts. I want to teach you how to do the same.

Head over HERE to complete a short application and once received, I will personally send you over the requirements for those selected!!

If you know someone who would be a great candidate, please feel free to tag them or send my information their way! Never know, you may just help change their life! 


Can't wait!!!
xoxo

Day 1 of FEBRUARY Challenge Group!

Here we GO!

Day One of my February Challenge Group!

We are doing the 21 Day FIX. BUT.... because of crazy weather... my program won't be here until Wednesday.

So... I had 2 choices.

1. Use that as an excuse to eat a lot of pizza and M&M's until Wednesday.

OR...

2. Get started anyway. SO... I am getting started any way!

Breakfast: 4 Egg Whites, 1/3 cup Oats with Stevia & Cinnamon ... and black COFFEE + H20.

YUM! {really... it was good}

------> 5 more meals to go!

Workout: I am going to do this REP workout that I found on Pinterest with my challengers.



Do it with us!

I am ALSO going to do PlyoFIX tonight. :) Beachbody sent me that workout as a SNEAK PEEK for being an Elite coach. COMING IN HANDY!


As a coach... I do NOT have a perfect body. I don't have ideal measurements, & I am not PHOTO READY (so to speak) all the time. I am ALWAYS moving forward to try to make progress. I'm human! 

So today was DAY ONE for me too.... including BEFORE pictures & measurements.


SO MANY WOMEN rely on the scale to show them progress. I learned NOT to do this. There are so many articles you can GOOGLE to tell you WHY the scale is not the best way to track your progress.

For me, I was a SLAVE to the scale. If the number didn't go down, I was really disappointed in myself & critical. I've learned to use the scale as 1/3 of my check-in system.

My 2 MOST IMPORTANT progress markers are pictures & measurements. I do a WEEKLY picture and take my measurements every 2 weeks.

I am committed to sharing my progress here with you. My goal is a WEEKLY recap with progress pictures. Accountability is the BEST way to stay on track. THAT is why I am doing "THIS" right along with the women in my online challenge group! Thankful for their support!

If you want to join me in an online challenge group ------ FILL THIS OUT!  I host a NEW group EVERY single month!





My COACHES join me and learn the ropes too! They also get a 25% discount on all their Beachbody products. {YES!}



My goals for the next 21 days:

  • LEANER VERSION OF ME!
  • More DISCIPLINED version of ME!
  • PORTION control.
  • Celebrate SMALL victories.
  • Help other women see that THEY can do the same!

Stay tuned! I WILL share it all!

xo,
Brittany

My 5 Star Beachbody Weekly Income Growth

Hey!

Of COURSE I hesitated writing this blog post!

It can be pretty tacky to talk about money. I am not a gazillionaire. My heart is to show other women, specifically soon to be moms or young moms that they CAN contribute to their household income while helping others and being PRESENT in the lives of their family members. 

PERIOD. 

Read this from LEFT ---> to ---> RIGHT.  This is the growth of my WEEKLY income over 12 months.

I will explain the breakdown.



That is my goal. 

So... this is me. I started as a Beachbody coach {WITHOUT A CLUE HOW TO WORK THE BUSINESS} in January of 2013. I was 2 WEEKS into P90X. Correct... I did NOT have a TRANSFORMATION before I started. 


I wanted a discount on my Shakeology. 


In the 2 weeks that it took me to decide to become a coach... I was SHARING my progress with my friends on Facebook... as a customer. I was simply a satisfied customer saying...


When I became a coach... people already KNEW what I was doing - because I was vulnerable with my progress. My goal was to attempt P90X for the 3rd time --- but to actually complete it and have some results. 

So... because I was open and shared with people... they started asking me about it. Hence... my first week as a Beachbody coach I had ONE friend buy Shakeology from my website. 

Here is the proof ---->$29.99




That $50... what was that from? I DECIDED to succeed right away. I signed up my husband as a coach (halfway to Emerald) the first week I signed up. 

So.. yep.... I made $79 for the WEEK. WOOP!

Now again... MANY people and COACHES make MUCH more money than I do. That is absolutely not my point. My point is.... being a NEW coach is VERY fresh in my mind. I KNOW what can happen to your paychecks in 12 months if you JUST REMAIN CONSISTENT with the 3 vital behaviors.

Invite people to join you.
Continue working on your fitness.
Read Personal Development.

Fast Forward a month. Now... after this $79 week paycheck --- I was so happy!! How fun!! My Shakeology was ALMOST FREE!! So I spend the rest of January inviting EVERYONE to join me for my next challenge group... which I didn't hesitate on. My FIRST Challenge Group that I led was on February 18th. ONE month after signing up. So... because I focused for 2-3 weeks on inviting people... this was my next weekly paycheck on 2/21/13...


This was ALL retail. In the beginning it can be tough. You do not have a TEAM under you yet. You SOLELY rely on your own sales. I am not a salesperson... not. at. all. 
I just shared what I was doing - told my friends I was going to host a Challenge Group on 2/18/13 and invited them to join me. 
Most didn't. MOST said NO.

I kept going. 

Let's FAST FORWARD to 6 months into coaching. I began to build a team. I was still working on my own fitness goals (I STILL AM!) & sharing that with people. Now... I began sharing what I loved about coaching too. I offered for people to join me when THEY were ready for a challenge group. I told people I would love for them to join my team ----> when THEY were ready.


So this is the compound effect (above). Retail commissions are about the same... but I am invested in helping my TEAM succeed as well. When coaches sign up with me, my biggest priority is to help them make money by helping others. 

For my family, making $945 for a week's work AT HOME is a pretty big deal. We live modestly. We want to pay off debt and create freedom.... THIS showed us that we are on our WAY to financial freedom. 

When my team succeeds, I succeed --- that's what the TEAM BONUS is. Here, I am a Diamond Coach earning income from my own retail sales but also my TEAM's success. 

Next, in the image below you will see my weekly paycheck when we were working the business for 10 months. My team has grown much more. I do not have as many friends to invite... because I invited them all. ;) My "warm market" is gone.... not a big deal. You continue to make friends...


You can see here (above), I only made $130 from MY own retail sales. I love helping people on my TEAM succeed, and Beachbody rewards that duplication. 90% of my income is from my team - you can see that in "TEAM BONUS". 

Lastly, below was just last week. Now, as a 5 Star Diamond coach I have a 2nd business center. My team is growing!! I am learning how to connect with strangers, develop a relationship with them, show them that I care about their goals, and get them plugged in to challenge groups. 

I love my team. We are full of REAL people... some working professionals, some stay at home parents, some students. This all started because I wanted a discount and to see how many friends I could help.






<---- First Business Center











Second Business Center  ---->










So these two business centers combine for a total weekly paycheck of $1856.52. The growth is clear. It is real. It doesn't JUST apply to those "founding coaches" or the ones who have been in the business for multiple years. I became a coach on 1/16/13 and this paycheck was from 1/30/14.


Do not give up. THIS is the compound effect. 

Focus on the 3 Vital Behaviors. 

Don't RE-invent the wheel.

You do not have to be perfect.

Be TEACHable. Be HONEST. Be willing to SHARE. 

...and you will SUCCEED!

This is just the beginning for us!

If you have a coach, chat with them about growing your business.
If you do not have a coach, I would love to chat with you about joining my team!

xo,
Brittany

21 day FIX crazy-talk!

Oh gosh! Here is the crazy news. 

Just a quick update...


Remember that brand new fitness program I've been drooling over... well because of the incredible demand for the 21 Day Fix, even the Challenge Packs will be on pre-order at this point.




They literally sold in EIGHT hours what they expected for the WEEK on Monday. There may be some exceptions to the PRE-ORDER rule for those that order today for only slight delays (next week ship) but you have to ACT like right now....

This means that my February 10th groups are officially closed to those that will receive their products by next week. I will be providing you with a specific meal plan and fun workout to HOLD us over until our LIQUID GOLD gets here. I will be announcing March groups as soon as I have a clearer picture on the ship dates of the pre-orders.

HAPPY FRIDAY! And... I just have to say it.... It is PRETTY awesome to be a COACH these days! 

Answering some emails and taking a half day today!! Be back on later this afternoon  Our team is working HARD to HELP people!

So excited for all the NEW coaches who joined our team last night! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

So happy for you Autumn!!


xoxo,
Brittany

CONFESSION: I am a nurse and a networking marketing professional.

I am NOT ashamed.

Actually... I am incredibly PROUD!

I am incredibly THANKFUL!



I think maybe I was one of the lucky ones.

I knew NOTHING about network marketing (MLM's) or "pyramid schemes" before joining the Beachbody team.

I didn't have a tainted view because of companies like Amway. I never had any experiences with "sale-sy distributors."

I WAS LUCKY.

The more and more I read & learn about my profession... the more I understand WHY people are so skeptical. I don't know that I would be completely ALL IN either if I had to buy a bunch of "STUFF" every month or every quarter just to be eligible for commissions, bonuses, incentives, etc. <---- PS I do NOT have to do that as a Beachbody Coach.

I don't know that I would see the BIG picture if I was forced to maintain a certain level of performance.

Ok... enough complaining :)

What I ABSOLUTELY LOVE about my profession, as a network marketer, is that my success is directly related to the degree to which I am willing to work to find other people like ME who are committed to SUCCESS. I mean really.... it's up to ME.

FYI:

The Direct Selling Association recently celebrated its 100-year anniversary, so it's a tried and true business model that's proven to be solid. Network Marketing is NOT going anywhere. I learned this from Sarah Robbins.

Network Marketing is a profession that PAYS you on your PERFORMANCE. Isn't that how it SHOULD be?

Now ------> I LOVE the nursing field. LOVE it. I will always be a nurse, I just don't want to rely on nursing for my paycheck. Here is why...

As a nurse... I LOVED my patients (as many, not all, of us do). But here is the deal.... I can BUST my butt to give EVERY SINGLE medication, start every bag of fluid, begin each antibiotic, & complete every procedure, RIGHT ON TIME... and no one would notice.

The nurse who works EFFICIENTLY & KINDLY is not paid ANY more (and sometimes LESS) than the nurse who sits in the nurses station eating her bagel, asking her nursing assistant to do everything, and finding a loop hole in the computer system to make it LOOK like all her medications were passed on time.

It's crooked.

The nurse who spends QUALITY time with their patients and family even though she hasn't  sat down in over 7 hours is paid the same (or less) than the nurse who turns her patient phone OFF - because she wants to have about 5 minutes of uninterrupted silence.

Now... I am NOT hating on nurses. I am not claiming to be a perfect nurse. I am just saying...

I WOULD MUCH RATHER BE PAID ON MY PERFORMANCE!

Network Marketing allows me to design a professional life that fits around the rest of my life. It allows me to choose my dream LIFE over a dream JOB.

There was definitely an OLD way of network marketing. It was sale-sy, pitch-y, uncomfortable, filled with pressure, focused on numbers, and up-selling.

This is the NEW face of network marketing.


We are all Network Marketing Professionals. 


What makes us different?

  • We care about PEOPLE.
  • We invest in relationships.
  • We help people even when they don't BUY something.
  • We don't use guilt or pressure to "close a sale."
  • We focus on freedom & adding VALUE to others. 
  • We share with each other, we don't compete.
  • Our products are ones that actually HELP people!
  • We CHOOSE who we work with!


There are so many reasons why I love being a part of this team. These people are some of my very best friends... the more THEY succeed- the more I succeed! 

If I had to choose my DREAM job all over again - I would STILL choose Network Marketing

The BEST part?

The products we offer aren't candles, makeup, or lotions. Those are all great. But our products focus on HEALTH & CONFIDENCE. They change your life. They do. Weight loss and fitness is NOT just about losing pounds or inches. It's about being PROUD of your personal accomplishment, your progress, your journey. Its about being CONFIDENT because you like the way you look. It isn't ALL about outer beauty/physique.... but taking care of your body is important. When you are UNHAPPY with your body - it spills over to OTHER parts of your life.... because you are DISCONTENT

I love helping women find their confidence. I LOVE IT. 

We will have haters. We will have people who do not understand.... and that is OK.  

I can promise you - this group of women here, and many many more, are changing lives, helping others, & achieving THEIR family's dreams. 

I hope you will consider joining my team. It WILL change your life.

Brittany
