Making Time for YOU

Now more than ever people are getting busier with everything they pile on their plate. I get it, I say "yes" to so many things when a simple "no" would make my life so much easier. The fact is that saying "yes" to doing something means saying "no" to something else. Its a give and take that can get dangerous if we let our priorities fall to the side.

One of those priorities that always seems to get pushed back is our health. Yes, even though you may be sitting here reading this healthy as a horse, your health is and always should be a top priority. I can't even tell you how much it kills me when someone says that they are healthy and don't need to worry about it yet. YET? YET? Your health should not be taken for granted.

As a culture we tend to have this reactive attitude when it comes to our health. The problem is that its so much harder to "cure" something once its already happened, whether its diabetes from weight gain, high cholesterol or a million other issues that comes from not making your health important. Many times you hear people wish they made better choices or listened to their doctor.

Its time to stop that cycle. We need to start being PROACTIVE about our health and strengthening our body and mind so we can endure everything this life has to throw at us.

When I finally realized this it was after my 3rd baby and I was feeling pretty awful about the way I looked and how I felt on the inside. I suffered from extremely low energy, took naps every afternoon, felt weak and lacked confidence in myself so much so that it changed the way I was around others.

That is when I was introduced to health and fitness accountability groups. I signed up with T25 and Shakeology because that was supposed to be help me even with a busy schedule like I had being a mom of three! I was pretty skeptical but gave it a try because I was desperate for a change. It wasn't 2 weeks into the group that I began to feel alive again. I started to feel stronger and healthier. I felt a rising confidence in myself because of the positive support coming from the accountability group and I loved it.

With joining that 30 day accountability group, I had to say "no" to somethings.  My workouts were under 30 minutes per day so I just woke up a little earlier but it really wasn't a big deal since the workouts boosted my energy so much throughout the day that I actually liked waking up early. It also meant I'd need to spend a little more time meal planning and prepping. Once I got the hang of it and learned a few tricks, it started to get faster and faster until it saved me so much time during the week that I didn't care how long it took on Sunday afternoon.

You see, even with my busy schedule I was able to get healthy because of the time efficient workouts and simple nutrition. I may have had to say "no" to somethings in the beginning but in the end, because I put myself and my health as a priority, everything got better. I am happier and more excited which directly improves the atmosphere of our household. Now, I have the energy now to run around and play with my kids and they love when we can play family soccer games together! I have never felt more strong and confident in my own skin than I do now. I am in the best shape of my entire life even after having three children and it was all from working out 5-6 times per week for 30 minutes a day, drinking Shakeology and eating clean.


So why am I telling you all of this... well because YOU can experience the same things I did when you join my Making Time for YOU Feb 15th Challenge Group.
