Ultimate Reset x6- My lowest weight in a while!!!

So excited for my Ultimate Reset results. This is my 6th time doing the program and I feel amazing! Today I officially hit my lowest weight since the devil-menopause! I was so excited 🎉🙌🏻 when I saw that number this morning.

I’m down 14 lbs and 21.25 inches! I calculated my measurements several times, and my biggest loss was in my waist and then hips. (Thank goodness for the belly!)

I’m recharged and the program did just what I wanted it to do RESET me and my belief in myself again! ❤️

I’ve been on the struggle bus the past few years with menopause. And honestly it didn’t seem to matter what I did I couldn’t make a huge change. Plant based really works for me. 🌱 and one thing I’ve learned over the past few years we really are all different and respond differently at different times in our lives to nutrition! (Yes I used different three times!)

I also discovered after having intense blood work completed that I’m super healthy! I guess 50 means I will have to focus just as much on nutrition as I do fitness! 🤣

I know that I plan to continue with the program backwards for Post Reset and will definitely cook many of the recipes I love.

I have a big trip coming up in March and I’d like to look my best and feel comfortable in a swimming suit.

.... I will win Menopause! Just watch me 😝🤩

PS Barre Blend has also contributed to some of my toning. Started week 5 today 😜

Three Day Refresh RESULTS

Once again I wasn’t disappointed with 3 Day Refresh. I completed this on Mon-Wed, Dec. 9-11. I had hoped to complete the week after Thanksgiving but didn’t get it in quite in time.

I kept the food simple and made it work even while traveling.

My RESULTS were good I lost -4.2 lbs and -3 inches. I feel great and back on track which is exactly why I did the refresh.

Check out what to expect about the 3 Day Refresh! 

Morning Meltdown PHASE 2 RESULTS

Are you ready to start your mornings off right and set yourself up for a better, more productive day?

Then the Morning Meltdown 100 could be the right program for you-I know I've been enjoying it. I just completed Phase 2 and I'm so happy with my results so far!!!

I have definitely taken back control of my mornings. I love the variety of the workouts and how strong I'm feeling.

This workout program goes into the importance of creating a healthy morning routine and how starting your day with morning exercise can improve your entire day, making you more productive, while giving you the lean toned body you’ve always wanted. 

You get the Be 100 journal to help you track your progress. There are empowering and motivating prompts to complete each day to help you show up each day. The program also comes with a wall calendar, so you can cross off each workout you complete, which is similar to the Seinfeld method of productivity.

There is a DJ with LIVE music. It’s like taking a live group class from the comfort of your own home or as they say, it’s like “a party.”

Equipment Needed

There is no special equipment you need to have when it comes to this program. You’ll just need the following:

• Light, medium and heavy weights
• Workout mat/yoga mat (optional)
• Towel (optional)

In the workouts, 8-, 10-, and 12-pound dumbbells are recommended for Morning Meltdown 100. You may want to select dumbbells a little lighter or heavier depending upon your fitness level. I started a little lighter the first couple of workouts to get down the form of each exercise before moving up to heavier weights. I started with 5-,8- and 10-pound weights.

Schedule: 

• 2 weeks of 5 Mini Meltdown prep workouts
• 5 Phases of 20 unique workouts
• 100 unique workouts total
• Wall calendar to cross off as you complete each workout
• 1st 10 workouts are cardio, upper body, core, total body, mobility & recovery, cardio, lower body, core-cardio/MMA, resistance, stretch & recovery

Here are my Phase 2 RESULTS.... I have lost 4.8 lbs and 10.5 inches

I can't wait to see how the next three phases go! #be100 #mm100 #morningmeltdown 

Ultimate Reset RESULTS...5th time and BEST yet!

Well I am so excited to share my results from the Ultimate Reset. This is my 5th time doing the reset and I am happy to share my BEST results so far!!! I've been struggling with Menopause and hormones, I've been on meds, tried keto, tried many things but this elimination type of cleanse has reset my body and I've felt better than I've felt in a LONG time!!!

RESULTS ARE IN! -15.5 lbs. GONE. -12.25 inches. GONE. The biggest changes came in my waist and thighs. I'm happy with them for sure!

Sure I'm happy with about the scale going down, because it's been stuck for awhile! But I'm most happy about how this reset made me look at my relationship with food, and how I'm feeling overall. My skin seems brighter, bloat and sluggishness gone. REALLY! I just feel incredible! Oh yeah and my clothes of course are fitting better!!

Just because I am a coach does not mean I am perfect, but y'all this menopause stuff is for REAL!! I never understood it until it happened to me. The biggest thing it plays with is YOUR MIND!!!

Before the Reset I was afraid of entering into the vegan world. I was afraid of a three-week workout hiatus, so I did at the end add it in but did the modifier. I was also afraid of failing and giving into temptation. My belief in myself was down! So I know I needed this and I knew the pre-scripted meals would help me. Knowing what I needed each day.


Completing the RESET has taught me SO MUCH! First and foremost, none of what I thought and mentioned above is true. It's truly opposite. This program transition you into a vegan diet, and as you go you learn to appreciate it. You learn that carbs are not the enemy they are your friend. You learn that feeding your body correctly, instantly results in it operating for you versus against you. You learn that chasing health gives you all the other things you are looking for: weight loss, energy, strength. I also had added many of the recipes to my FAVES!

Here's the BOTTOM line....completing this program has made me BELIEVE in ME again. I feel INCREDIBLE and I'm just super excited that I actually completed it for the 5th time. Thanks for your support along my journey!
