A Moms Passion Project

When you set out to identify your specific fitness goal to be achieved in the next 30 days, it must not be related to your weight AT ALL! No weightloss goals of x number of pounds or inches to lose. In fact, you aren’t allowed to step on the scale at all in those first 30 days. And my hope is you don’t actually step on it ever again!

Can I let you in on a little secret?

As you set your sites on these non weight related goals, chances are the weight will to take a hint and start to come off. It may not happen right away or as fast as you want, but it’s a great side effect to the goals you are already crushing.

Staying committed to an exercise routine is hard work. Forget the fact that we are held up in our homes and have been for the last couple of months, and depending on where you live, the weather may not be suitable to be outside at all. Here are a few tips to keep you motivated during quarantine and life after.

Have you ever had a coach? Maybe as a kid playing soccer, or for your high swim team.. perhaps you’ve had one as an adult for your business. Just someone who has personal experience and knowledge on a specific subject who can help you get to where you want to go faster, and with less frustration.

In my interview with Meredith, she shares what her experience has been like since hiring a fitness coach and just how much she has improved in her fitness journey because of the accountability and support and expertise her coach has provided her.

Meredith is a Mom, proud wife and obstacle   course athlete. After going through a tough post partum journey and feeling   lost on where to get started, Meredith’s original   goal of losing her baby weight evolved into so much more than she could have   ever imagined…an avid love for fitness, racing   competitively, becoming the ambassador for LIVE Training Center, and a   starting a Nutrition + Lifestyle coaching business. Meredith   is dedicated to helping women achieve the life and health they’ve always   dreamed of. Through her science backed tools and latest   research on behavior change she provides the tools, accountability and roadmap for anyone to be successful. Meredith whole heartedly believes the key to happiness is   creating a life that is in line with your goals andvalues and giving yourself grace every step of the way.

Amber was one of those lucky ones in her 20s.. eat whatever you wanted and you didn't gain an ounce! And then the 30s hit and it was a different story. Weight gain, sore joints, over the counter drugs to help with the pain. What was happening? A friends BBQ is where it all changed. She was introduced to the KETO diet and has since evolved and made healthy habit changes to the way she lives and is seriously on fire as she builds her dream business.

Tabitha is the mom of all moms! She loves to pour in to her little ones and learned she loves to pour in to other moms who might be struggling in this thing called motherhood. Tabitha is also aware of her desire to maintain a healthy lifestyle. We talk about the days in high school and always willing to try sports despite not being great at them and how it's ok to not be the best but ultimately, you'll find your groove. This has helped her as she got older and had kids. You don't need to be great at something but always be willing to try. And in your trying, you just might inspire other moms to do the same.
