Do you remember a time when you were motivated to lose weight?  All of a sudden, you hit a point where staying as you were was much more painful than the changes you needed to make to change.  Maybe you saw a picture you were in and didn’t even recognize yourself. Maybe someone made a rude comment to you about your weight, or maybe you couldn’t play with your kids without getting out of breath.

Whatever it was that got you thinking “I MUST lose this weight”, embrace it!  It’s in our moments of frustration that real growth appears!

But let’s face it, weight loss isn’t easy.  If it was, everyone would be at their perfect weight. You need a continual stream of motivation to continue.  I always tell the people I coach that they need to develop their “WHY” and envision themselves achieving that lifestyle.  You need to just close your eyes and think about what it will be like to be at your perfect weight.  What will you look like?  How will you feel?  What will you be able to do?  And you need to do that daily!  Doing it several times a day is even BETTER!

It doesn’t need to take a long time, but you need to make it feel REAL!  Believe it or not, your mind cannot distinguish between what is real and what is vividly imagined!

This is the first step in successful and lasting weight loss!

What’s the second step?  Belief!  Even if you’ve tried a thousand times in the past, you have to believe that this time will be different.  How do you do that?  Well, one way of doing it is to find others who have done what you have done and realizing that if they did it, then so can you!

One of the reasons I was drawn to Beachbody is because the community is full of people who have done just that!  Right now, they are starting the process of voting for one woman and one man who will each win the quarterly transformation contest (and $10,000)!

These people have all worked hard and have changed their lives!  Now if that isn’t motivation, I don’t know what is!

Starting tomorrow, I’ll be posting a few transformation stories and videos every day.  I hope you can find someone you can relate to and who will motivate you to make the changes you need to make to be a healthier YOU! 

If you just can’t wait to view all of the success stories who are in the running for this $10,000, then you can get a free Beachbody account by clicking here!

People continually ask me why I’m a Beachbody coach.  Well, there are MANY reasons, but one of the most important ones is that I’m continually inspired by the people I coach.  Darlene Provance is one of those people.

Darlene grew up in a family of 10 siblings, and she struggled with low self esteem for years.  That’s hard for me to imagine now because when I talk to her on the phone, all I hear is a strong, confident woman who sounds SO joyful!

Darlene found Beachbody, and an exercise program that she loved…Turbo Jam…and lost over 21 pounds!  Can you believe that she is 50 years old?  She looks incredible!  Watch her story in the video below to see how she used Turbo Jam to finally lose the weight that had been holding her back for so long! This is a Turbo Jam review you don’t want to miss!

Following her win in the monthly Beachbody 2009 transformation contest, she quit smoking, and she was terrified that the weight would come back.  It did (a little), but it was only for a short time.  You see, NOW she had the tools and the lifestyle to get to and stay at a healthy weight!

I’m SO proud of her for kicking the smoking habit!    She’s made a very important switch in mindset.  She’s gone from wanting to lose weight to wanting to be healthy!  That’s the key to maintenance of a weight loss because once the weight is gone, you have to have a more powerful “WHY” to keep up with your new healthy habits!

After finding that she could have success with Beachbody products, she moved on to other programs like P90X, Rockin’ Body, Slim in 6, and ChaLEAN Extreme.  Darlene has been an inspiration to many people, and I kept telling her that she should become a coach because she was already coaching others by telling them what SHE did to lose the weight, and more importantly, keep it off!

Darlene and I talked a few times about her becoming a coach.  I knew she would be great at it because she was continually encouraging others.  Well, she finally decided to join my team of coaches, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to have her!

People all over America are finding that they can get their lives back by committing to the program that’s right for them!  Once they become a “product of the product” and people start asking them “WHAT are you doing?”, then moving into coaching is a natural next step!  It not only provides an additional source of income, but it helps us stay accountable to our new healthy lifestyle.

If this sounds like a path you’d like to follow, but you are not sure where to start, ASK ME!  My coaching is free of charge!  And if you are thinking “Sure, I want to lose weight, but this coaching thing is not for me”, then that’s perfectly fine.  Coaching is fun and rewarding to me, but it’s certainly not for everyone!

If you were inspired by Darlene’s story, I know she would love to hear that!  Please visit her NEW website that Beachbody gave her the minute she became a coach!  Once you get to Darlene’s website, click on the “Contact Me” button and tell her something about how she inspired you!  Or, leave a comment for Darlene below!

Together we’re BETTER!
