PROUD TEACHER MOMENT.... We all know I'm a health, fitness and nutrition NUT...I mean HEY, my undergrad degree IS in Exercise Science, I AM a Beachbody Coach, I grew up as a dancer and gymnast and am now a runner, rockstar Cizer and true believer in all things Beachbody because who doesn't like to slam out their workout from their home in the mornings before work and have time to do whatever your heart desires in the evenings!! And come on...what do you expect... OF COURSE I'm going to plant little seeds throughout the day while I'm at my full time teaching job :) Many people have NO clue what they're feeding their children...the box says "low-fat" or the bottle says "100% juice," so it must be good for us and our kiddos, right??? NOT SO FAST!!! So here we are, it's day 11 of school, 9:15 AM, we're about to read a story together, and one of my kiddos was just a little off....very lethargic with quite the attitude...he forgot to bri...

THE NEXT BIG THING!!!! It's here!!! It's here!!! And the next support group is starting soon! We saw hundreds of amazing results with the 21 Day Fix and I'm beyond excited to announce that I'll be starting the NEW 21 Day Fix EXTREME in just a few short days!

But that does NOT mean they will be easy...the will in fact challenge you at every level physically, mentally and yeah, sometimes even emotionally...but this craziness will help you reach your goals and maximize fat loss. Oh, and if you're just starting off on your fitness journey, there's a modifier on screen to show you how to dial down the inten...

HAPPY 2015!!!!! This year, I rang in the New Year with some very beautiful people ~inside and out.  Some old friends.....   Like Amy, whom I've known for years and became very close with over the last year and a half....gosh, such a funny story as to how we met. What was it, first FAU? Then CHE? Then distance where barely spoke, and then something clicked a few years later and she became part of my church crew and the best Sunday beach buddy :) Those can be stories for another day.... And then this guy, Daniel, my other little brother who is not related at all but in fact a best friend of my ex-fiance....another whole slew of stories for yet again, another day. I'm so thankful for our friendship. Just one of the many reasons I truly believe that good things  really do come out of difficult situations. And then those new friends....  Like this girl right here... Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have met her.... W...
