I am going to start another Beachbody challenge on Monday, April 2, 2012. Are you ready to achieve your health and fitness goals? As you can see, I decided to do this last year, I committed to myself to get healthy and I succeeded!!!!! DECIDE - COMMIT - SUCCEED!!! We all deserve to be healthy and happy and we owe it to ourselves to take a little time out of the day for ourselves to get healthier!!! It's amazing how spending a bit of your time daily for fitness also results in being happier and more confident!! I have an amazing group that committed to themselves and are helping the rest of the group stay motivated and inspired. An AMAZING group who ROCK!
If you are interested in more details, please EMAIL me at amyrdh@aol.com or send me a PRIVATE message here on facebook and I will talk to you personally more in detail about it!
Requirements are:
1) You have to believe that you are worth taking time everyday for yourself to get healthy
2) You have to COMMIT to doing this, anyone can motivate you or inspire you, but only YOU can do the work
3) Realize that this is a lifestyle change, it will take time to see the results, this is not a quick fix, you need to stay focused and realize that this is one day at a time, one workout at a time, one meal at a time, one pound at a time - small steps lead to large leaps!!!
Are you ready to get healthy? Are you worth it? I THINK YOU ARE!

I am asking ALL of my family and friends (and FB friends) to say prayers for my family for tomorrrow, Feb. 1. I cannot say what's it all about but we need as many prayers as possible for good news. Thank you so much in advance for your help with your prayers and good vibes coming our way tomorrow - we need it now more than ever. Thank you so much for all your love, good wishes and prayers! Love you all! ♥

Ok, I have a new contest going on that I will reward the winners on Sunday, February 26, 2012.

As you can see above, my new mentor and HERO is Chalene Johnson. Yes, she is a fitness expert but she's also a life coach. I met her two weeks ago and it was the most amazing day for me. Her programs, her 30 day challenges and also her writings, facebook statuses and so on have changed my life for the better. Her book is NOT just about health and fitness!!!!

http://www.chalenejohnson.com/pushjumpstart/

Chalene gives you the life-changing tools you need to change your habits with 30 days of practical steps that include pinpointing goals, reverse engineering a course of action to achieve them, and kicking the clutter—whether that means junk food, draining exercise regimens, or toxic relationships

In one month, you will learn how to create layers of accountability and support so that success is your only option.

Chalene Johnson is an entrepreneur, TV fitness personality, clothing designer, author, motivational speaker, choreographer, wife, mother of 2 and relatable girl next door.

I'm starting this (90/60) Day Beachbody Challenge group on Monday, January 9, 2012 and have space for just a few more people. I'm coming to you all first and giving you the first opportunity to take a look before I start inviting this long list of people. Would you like to hear more about this?

Accountability time- TurboFire® - HIIT 30 √, Upper 20 √, Shakeology first thing in the AM √. HIIT tonight totally kicked my a$$!!!!!

Ok, so I have friends who ask me how to I stay motivated to keep working out. They want to do it but can't seem to get themselves to stay with it. Well today, honestly, I had one of those struggle days. I worked all day, came home and was making excuses to myself - "I'll just double up tomorrow, I'll just not workout today and make Wednesday my rest day". Well, I finally said to myself, get up off your bootay and just DO IT! It was really hard to do today so even I and all of us who do this need help in staying motivated. I did not workout as hard as I usually do and I felt so out of breath doing the HIIT workout tonight but at least I did it and was wiped out tonight but felt good that I fought those inner demons and did it!!! It's tough but like everything else it has to be scheduled and you have to stay committed to yourself to do it. You are so worth it and trust me when I say it gets easier and you do start loving how you feel after you do it. Those endorphins are amazing! Beats any "happy pills"!!!

What do you do to tell yourself that this must be done and get yourself motivated to do it?

This is so cool - for all my fitness buddies and everyone else, share this video!!! Look at the statistics and facts here on how EXERCISE is the BEST treatment for so many diseases!!!! Not to mention how cool the sketches are!!!!
