Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
Before I started a hybrid of Beachbody programs, like Focus T25 and 21 Day Fix , I was unhappy with myself and with how I treated myself. I hated my body, and I was embarrassed to wear anything but my scrubs to work. I fought with my husband and yelled at my kids frequently because I was upset with my life, and I let it get the best of me. I had to make a change.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
My kids inspired me as well as my husband. I didn’t want to ruin our relationships, and I knew I needed to make a change. My children were already picky eaters and didn’t get the proper nutrients that they needed. I needed to be an example for my children for them to grow up being healthy in a world that is surrounded by unhealthiness. But I had to make the change first.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?
The greatest challenge was time to workout as well as committing to eating better even when my kids and husband were eating things that I knew I shouldn’t. The structure of the workouts and the accountability of the workouts helped me to keep on track. The meal plan was great, too! Having a great Beachbody Coach has really helped me be accountable. And now that I am a Coach, it is super exciting to see all the progress my challengers have made. I love that I am paying it forward! I also love the meal plan!

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
Everything! Quick, easy-to-follow workouts, the meal plan, and the support! I love the music and the instructors. They are all awesome and kept me going! I feel strong and fit! I love it. I love the variety with 21 Day Fix, too!

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I have overcome many challenges on my journey to get fit, and now I will not let life or things that don’t matter get in the way! Plus, I became a Coach to help as many people that will let me. This is my passion now, and my life has forever changed because of it! And my journey is never over. We all have struggles and we fail, but it only matters that we get back up and keep trying! The sky is the limit for me.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I have passion again. I love life again. I enjoy spending time with my family. I want to spread the “health” within my family and friends, and I don’t have excuse of why I shouldn’t. Life couldn’t be sweeter!

How did participating in a Challenge Group help you reach your goals? How did your group support you and keep you accountable?
They help me to be accountable! I knew that everyday I needed to not only post to support the group but to be held accountable! Be a product of the product!

How did your Team Beachbody® Coach support you on your journey?
By being a leader and helping me whenever I needed support! I could send her a message at any time, and she was always willing to help. I struggle with recipes, and she knew exactly the right direction to point me in. I am so lucky to have found her!

How did a Beachbody Supplement or Nutritional Product or Program (such as Shakeology® or Beachbody Ultimate Reset®) support your transformation? What are the greatest benefits you gained? Did you see benefits to your energy, sleep, mood/mental clarity, digestion/regularity?
All of the above. Shakeology is so wonderful. I never realized it until I tried it. Now I crave it everyday! It’s a wonderful product, and I am proud, not only as a Coach, but as a nurse to support it.
