Paying it Forward - Fitness Challenge Group #1

6 weeks ago, I began the fitness journey that is completely changing my life. Today, I want to share my experience with you and invite you to join me so that you can reach your fitness goals too!

Over the years, I have done several at-home fitness programs..most of them being BeachBody programs. I'm sure you've seen the infomercials on TV or heard of these programs (P90X, Insanity, Turbo Jam, and the list goes on). Have I had success with the programs I've done in the past? Eh, somewhat but it didn't really stick. What I learned doing these programs in the past is that it is really easy to come up with excuses and quit when you're working out at home, by yourself, and no one knows about it.

Fast forward to early January 2016. I had been trying different things at home over the past several months on my own but nothing was really sticking. I kept starting over every Monday. Who can relate to the new Monday syndrome?

One day, I happened to come across a random advertisement on my Facebook news feed talking about a fitness challenge group. It sounded like the missing piece to my puzzle for success : Accountability. How did I miss this before? I commented on the post requesting more information about how I could be a part of this group. Turns out the post I was commenting on was from an amazing BeachBody coach who spends her life inspiring and helping people like me reach their fitness goals.

Long story short, this BeachBody coach helped me decide on a new at-home fitness program that would be best for me based on my abilities and fitness goals. She then invited me to be in her next challenge group on Facebook. What is a challenge group? Its a private Facebook group with a few other women who are also on their fitness journey just like me. I have been a part of this group for the past 6 weeks. Each day there is a "homework" assignment which is simply to comment on my coach's post with whatever she requests. For example, post a motivational quote or take a picture of a healthy meal I'm eating or something like that. I also share my results at the end of each week with the group and sometimes post other random triumphs or struggles I am dealing with on my fitness journey. It is so great to be able to talk with other people who are going through the same thing that I am and it has helped me stay accountable day after day. Without this group, I'm sure I would have given up by now.

The other piece that is awesome about this fitness journey is that when I purchased the program that I am doing, I signed up to be a coach too! I have promised myself that this time, I am not giving up. I just knew that this challenge group was going to change my life. I made a commitment to myself that once I started seeing results, I wanted to be able to pay it forward and help other people reach their fitness goals too.

So, 6 weeks have gone by and I am seeing amazing results! I have already lost over 10 lbs and 13.5 inches. Now's the time to start paying it forward! While I continue my fitness journey, I want to help you on your journey to becoming a healthier you!

My Facebook fitness challenge group will begin on Monday, March 21st and I would love for you to join me!
