Do your best and...

This past weekend, we got to workout with the one and only Tony Horton (yes the one of P90X popularity!!)! How cool is that?

Yes - the workout was awesome but I've gotta say, I think I got even more out of his presentation! Health truly is about more than just your pants size or max bench press - it's a way of life designed to provide the most fulfilling journey. Who knows how this "Tony-ism" ends? Comment here!

#100GoneOrCubsOn turkey week update!

Can we get a big ole "WOOHOO" for Scott who is still making progress towards his goal? So so awesome!! Here's his update for this week!

"Update time!!!! WOOHOO!!!!  Weighed in this morning 297.5.  Down six pounds from the last update.  

So let's talk.......  this is not EASY!  Not by any means!  When it comes to being a person that went to Hardee's everyday for lunch and ate what I wanted and got into that routine.  You bet your sweet ....... well I won't add that word...... IT IS NOT EASY!!!!  To make those changes, to see what all of this "fast" food has done to our bodies over the years..... it's rough.  

It's time to start thinking different about your body's needs!!  I have chosen to look long and hard at the Paleo way of things!  Meat!  Our bodies were made for that!  At least that is my opinion!!  

So look at what you are doing.  Find what it is that you like to eat!  Vegan, Vegetarian, Paleo, know that you do not need to get rid of the things you like, just control how much you have.  For those that are members of the Team Beachbody website.  The meal planner is great to use.  I have purchased several Paleo cookbooks to see what I can conjure up for me.

Good luck, and we, all of us, are here to help with those needs!!!

#100GoneOrCubsOn lesson: don't give up!!

From Scott himself again!! Enjoy! :-)

And it's update time.....So how is everyone doing?  Are you meeting your goals?  Are you reaching for your dreams?  It has been a week, my reaching for that goal has become a weak link for me.  But I am pressing on and learning how this all works.  I have become P90X qualified to assist those in need.  
But with that qualification, I have also learned a few things.  I started with Focus T25.  This worked for me for a few weeks and with anything I start, I don't always complete.  And as like clockwork, I did not continue on.  Why?  I can't explain it.  Then I got back into it, this time with T25 and P90X.  Wow, I was loving it!!  There was even one night that I did them within 30 minutes of each other!  Wow did I feel good.  But how crazy was all of this!  

My weight this go around has been something to struggle with.  I was at 303.5 lbs.  I actually gained some!  No one ever said this was going to be easy.  Am I looking for sympathy?  Nope, not at all.  I do want everyone that reads this to realize that this will be something that you are going to have to deal with!  Alone you ask?  BY ALL MEANS NO!!!!!!  You are not alone in this fight!  Weight loss, eating healthy, getting fit are things that we all have gone thru, are going thru or are attempting again!    With that, I am resetting my thoughts to all of this!  I am going to start simple.  T25 here we come again!  As we get done with that, the next stage is going to be P90X and maybe, just maybe, another program.  I am still deciding on that one!  Any suggestions?

Eating right is hard to do when you have, for years, not eaten right.  Working construction and being on the go everyday did not give one many healthy choices, or should I say we as people make poor choices when it comes to eating.  And that is something for the next update.......

So, please, please, please DO NOT GIVE UP!!!! On yourself, your health, or your body!

#100GoneOrCubsOn - Let's get this started!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to one of my awesome #TeamAddictedBB coaches - Scott Montgomery! I met Scott through Twitter thanks to some friendly sports banter between our beloved baseball teams, the Cubs and the (can't believe I'm going to type this) Cardinals. For those who don't know, Cardinals and Cubs is one of those classic rivalries, like Michigan and Ohio or Green Bay and the Bears. Through our conversations, we got to know each other and found out that we could have more in common than our devotion to our baseball teams - we both want to be in better health so that we can be our best for those we love.

Scott got started on Shakelogy and T25 along with the P90X he already had which got him going on healthy habits and good progress! As a diabetic, Scott has been well aware of how food and exercise could improve his quality of life and by making the right changes and consistently eating smart and working out, he has already been able to cut his insulin needs in HALF on a regular basis! How cool is that?!?

Like so many of us, making these lifestyle changes isn't always easy for Scott. The father of two (adorable!!) active children, he's often on the go, traveling for kid activities on the weekends, and it's tough for him to always stick to his plans! Oh, and have I mentioned he has a full-time job too? Yeah. Because of these challenges, he felt he needed a challenge - some accountability. That's where I and these blog posts come in.

Since our friendship started over some good-natured sports banter, we've made a baseball related deal! If (when!) he loses 100 lbs from his starting weight of 300 by September 2nd, 2014, I will wear a St. Louis Cardinals jersey to a Cubs vs. Cards game. Should he come up short (which I doubt will happen!), he will wear a Cubs jersey to the game. (These are my favorite kinds of bets - the ones that inspire you to become better!)

We'll track and share his progress, keep him accountable, cheer him on, and I have no doubt that he is destined to be an inspiration to many! Look for Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and blog post updates with the hashtag that is sure to remind him of the bet - #100GoneOrCubsOn - and feel free to use that when you share notes of encouragement!

I'll be sharing his weekly updates here (think we can convince him to write a few notes for you guys?) and every month, we'll work on having updated photos as well!

Here's the starting point and first update!

August 15
Weight: 300 lbs
Waist: 48 inches
Hips: 49.5 inches
Chest: 50.5 inches
Right and left arms: 15 inches
Right Thigh: 24.5 inches
Left Thigh: 23 inches

October 2 (when the bet began!)
Weight: 298 lbs
Waist: 45 inches
Hips: 48 inches
Chest: 49.5 inches
Right and left arms: 15.5 inches
Right thigh: 27.5 inches
Left thigh: 25 inches

TurboFire - what's in the box?

Ok I promised this entry AGES ago...about time I finally posted it, huh? My TurboFire arrived in an amazing, wonderful box...it was like Christmas! Some of you might remember my very excited posting of its arrival...

So why was I so excited? Inside I found....


- Fuel the Fire: The most awesome nutrition guide. Not a meal plan as much as awesome recipe ideas and gorgeous pictures to guide you through. Definitely an awesome addition to ANY workout plan...not just TurboFire.

- Guide thru TurboFire: what it is, how it works, the music, the workouts and notes from Chalene



- Class Schedule: I keep mine on the fridge. It keeps me on track and its great to see what's next and what workout I should do today especially mornings when I don't have time to log in and check my Beachbody profile (www.teambeachbody.com/gabriellah99)

- The 5 Day Inferno Plan: 5 days to get my weekend body. Its a full meal / workout plan that has shown to have amazing results. I think I'm going to do it in November. Stay tuned!

- Get Fired Up DVD: A message from Chalene to get you fired up about the program. It's an intense program - every little piece of motivation helps and Chalene is an amazing motivator!



- 11 DVDs of workouts!!! Love the fact that typically a day's workout will only call for 1 CD. The Stretch 10 which typically follows a workout is repeated on each DVD so you don't have to mess with it mid-workout.



- Lower body band perfect for some of the exercises and a tape measure to track your progress.



Also included is the P90X results and recovery formula. I normally don't like drinks like that but this one is YUMMY! Just a note: you get all of these things if you order the complete system. There is a basic that has most but not all of this and also an add-on in case you order the basic and that's just not enough :-) I'd also recommend some resistance bands and handles for the strength training classes.

I love this workout. Love love love this workout :-) Granted tonight I'm going for a run since I'm running a 5K on Saturday but I'll do a TurboFire workout tomorrow again to get my fix.

Let me know if this piques your interest - I love sharing my addictions! What's your favorite workout of all time?

Head over to http://tiny.cc/CoachG for this and more awesome programs.
