Shakeology® - She Lost 32 lbs. and more..

Another great success story with the use of Shakeology®. My wife had a similar experience and it also helped with her weight loss and digestive issues. Shakeology® is Gluten Free, Certified Low Glycemic Index, and NO refined sugars or sweeteners. What a better way to start the day than with Shakeology® instead of those expensive coffee drinks.

What to EAT?!?


Getting fit and losing wieght at 40 can be a challenge. Years of bad eating habits are going to be overhauled in 90 days of doing P90X. My biggest concerns was what was I going to eat. During some of the workouts like Plyometrics and Kenpo X, you can expend as much as 600-800 calories. Your body needs the right type of fuel to maintain your energy through these workouts. P90X package provides a nutrition guide for you, with sample menus for the day, and portion guides. The recipes are OK. For more variety, I just started using the EAT SMART on TeamBeachBody.com to help me get some healthy recipes. During P90X, I ate smaller meal portions but throughout the day. I keep our fridge filled with healthy snacks for those quick moments you need some energy. There is more planning involved in shopping and preparing meals since it seems like your always eating. My suggestion is find healthy foods that you will eat and enjoy. Yes, I on occasion have a burger or pizza but I know the next day I will be pushing harder on my next work out.

Who is Beachbody?

When I purchased P90x, I did not know who Beachbody was? They produced Hip Hop Abs, ChaLEAN Extreme, TurboFire, Insanity, and more. I was surprised to see the selection of Fitness Videos they provided and real weight loss results from real people. What I liked was they provided the complete package of exercise, nutrition, and support. Beachbody has a great website where you can track your weight loss and physical improvement online, great health recipes, and be able to chat with others going through the same fitness program with you. I always get inspired by the Weight Loss Transformation videos. My change was not as big as theirs but seeing the commitment and determination of others helped motivate me for those 90 days. The video has more information about them.
