Fat girl goes on a rant. LOL

Hey yall! So I've been pretty busy! I'm in the transition week of my TurboFire/Chalean Extreme Hybrid. It's going pretty good. Last week was really great. I got a taste of Chalean Extreme and  It felt great to lift and there is something so therapeutic about weight lifting. I'm enjoying it and I can't wait to lift more. Turbo Fire is just awesome. I can't get over the energy that's transferred into my living room every time I push play! Even when I'm getting down, Chalene won't let me! She used to get on my nerves just because I'm not normally around happy hyper people. But it's all making sense to me know... Influence play a MAJOR role in what we become.  Even God says,

 "Don't be fooled by those who say such things, for "bad company corrupts good character."1 Corinthians 15:33


For most of my life I surrounded myself with negative people. Dont know why, but I did. Maybe because my Dad was a negative person. But God had His plans for me. Even tho I surrounded myself with negative I always somehow seemed to turn my life into positive. I've met many people help me along the way and somewhere I decided to abandon ship and become a loner. After all I wasn't really alone right? I had my husband and kids and Jesus. Right? Right! WRONG!


My point is this. We gotta get out of our comfort zone and venture out! There are so many wise people out there giving away free advice. U can either take it or leave it. I used to take it and then leave it at that. But now I take it and apply it. In the past 4 months I've become my number 1 fan. (inside thought...I've always been my number 1 fan.lol) I'm really proud of whom I've become and what I will be. 


Friends, do this.... wake up and thank God for another day. Another day to do the dang thang! Whatever it is that you fear. Are u afraid to succeed? Why? What's stopping you from living every day like it was your last? 


Nothing is gonna stop me from achieving my "WHY". What is my "WHY"? Well the question  that I've been getting lately is.......WHY ARE YOU A BEACHBODY COACH AND WHY DO YOU OBSESS OVER WORKING OUT EVERYDAY AND EATING CLEAN AND WHY DO YOU KEEP POSTING THAT SHAKEOLOGY STUFF ON YOUR WALL ABOUT BEACHBODY THIS AND BEACHBODY THAT? WHY SARA WHY????


I'll tell ya WHY! Because it's my passion! Because I wake up every morning and I'm ready to take on the world starting in the comfort of my own home! Because I love my family and I want to be able to take care them. Send my kids to great schools and educate them on modern obesity so that they will live a long and healthy life! Because I adore my husband with all my heart and I want to be able to support our family when he retires from the Navy in 7 years! Because I care about people and I want them to experience the gift of JOY that I feel every single day!


 Before this, and during all this, and even after this, my passion has always been GOD! He has finally revealed to me what I can become in this life time. Well He knew it all along, but now I can finally see! The other nite my husband told me that I get addicted to things too fast. But he also mentioned that it's a good thing cuz I'm addicted to the good things in life. Call it what u want. Addiction.Obsession.Passion. I am all of these. I am Addicted,Obsessed, and Passionate about My Faith & Fitness. Amen.

INFERNO Plan Day 4 Review

Ok, SO I have not lost much weight. sigh. This is ok cuz I'm thinking it may have to do with my "special time of the month". See! CAn't let that scale get me down. Day 4 was good. Everything I prepared was absolutely good. Hmmm. I don't have much else to say other than bring on day 5!

I think I'm in love with spinach. apples & pb are always a treat. egg salad pita was seriously good. I loved it all! Keep Pushing Play. Let's CRUSH it!

INFERNO Plan Day 3 Review

Day 3 in the books! Just finished Fire EZ 55. It was better. I found my calorie tracker. My daughter had it in her purse. I don't know if she broke it cuz apparaently 11 minutes into the workout I only burned 20 calories? heck noo! It must be broke. Gotta admit that upset me so Im drawing that conclusion. Ok now my eating was on point again. Except for the cottage cheese in the morning. Couldn't handle it. But everything else was fine. My kids and I bond a lot in the kitchen. Most families do. Sadly tho, most families bond over fattening, sugary, saturated food in the kitchen. Don't get me wrong. I still let my kids be kids. I let them eat an oreo or popsicles, but it's not all the time. They don't drink soda or juice unless family members give it to them. Which is fine cuz they are hardly ever around anyone other myself. I'm proud of myself for creating this clean kitchen. I don't have to ever regret the choices I make when it comes to feeding my kids. Ok here it is guys ENJOY!

CJ loves carrots

Alyssa is so silly

Broman is so serious about his food!

Inferno Plan Day 2 Review

Good Morning! So yesterday I completed day 2 of 5 of Turbo Fire's Inferno Plan. It was a good day. The meals were good, but I really didn't care for the strawberry yogurt with added honey. It was a bit too sugary for me. But I'm trying to follow the plan to the t. I'm being really open. I did HIIT 20 and Stretch 10 around noon yesterday and it was good. I really like the HIIT dvds so far. Im so hardcore. lol.  I put the kids to bed around 8:30 and I got busy with FIRE EZ 45 around 9:30pm. Man that was a freakin' workout! Those ladies are hyper and full of non-stop energy. Lots of punching and kicking and GREAT music! My arms are sooooo sore from the past 2 days. They were not even this sore doing Insanity. Goodness this is a workout. Here are my meals from yesterday. The Salmon was so freakin good! ENJOY

SO there it is everyone. Clean, simple and Deeelicioso!

Inferno Plan Day 1

Ok everyone, so I finished Insanity yesterday finally! I only lost 8 lbs and I wasnt thrilled but at the same time I was happy I didnt gain 8 lbs. I dont feel like pictures are worth posting, but if U wanna see just let me know. Happy to report that I will be doing a Turbo Fire. Chalene Extreme Hybrid for the rest of the summer. Its freaking awesome! I'm starting the 5 day Inferno Plan. Which means you pretty much eat 1200 calories a day and push play. I'm used to eating 1600-1800 calories of my own plain eating plan courtesy of my sponsor Leeia. So I was a little worried that this wouldn't be enough. I have to admit that I'm looking forward to all the new recipes Chalene planned out. Today I was on Point with my nutrition. There's nothing better than putting good wholesome food into your body and your kids too. My kids are so used to eating every 2-3 hours it's nuts! And they are very open to trying out good food. 

So I did my workout around 1030 am while Brody was napping and CJ was on the computer. My baby girl LOVEs doing Turbo Fire with me! I must say at some point I did miss Insanity, but I got over it cuz, well I need to. The music is on Fire and the moves are great. I wasn't blessed with rhythm so I felt a lil awkward, but I didn't stop moving. And that's what COUNTS! Move your body people! Break a sweat! And most importantly FEED Yo' FACE. the good stuff that is. So here it is. I made everything that the program called for. Except I used natural pnut butter instead of almond butter for my shake. Can't wait to GET HOT tomorrow!

The Best way to start my day... A nutritious meal with my kids

Breakfast 7am- 2 slices whole wheat toast, 1 scrambled egg, half a tomato, slice of turkey bacon, 8oz H2o, Slimming Formula

Snack- 7 walnuts, half a banana, 8oz H2o

Lunch- Tuna Salad with cherry tomatos and celery, 2 tbsp fat-free ranch(yuck), 8oz H2o, Slimming Formula

Snack- Peanut Butter SHAKEOLOGY

Dinner- 2 chicken breast, 4 cups broccoli, H2o, Slimming Formula

This was A LOT of food people! I couldn't finish my dinner :( I hate to waste food, but I just couldn't do it. It was all very yummy and I can't wait for tomorrow! God Bless!

Jon's P90X 45 Day Results

Hi Everyone! Not only am I on my journey from FAT 2 FIT, but my older brother Jon is as well. He started P90X 45 days ago and he has achieved some great results! I'm so proud of him and he truly inspires me to be an overall better person! Let me tell U a little bit about him. Growing up I remember him always being fit and athletic. I remember him being a super fast runner and good basketball player. I remember him devouring PIZZA & SODA all the time. Our family LOVES to eat and that's what we did A LOT growing up. But he always seemed to stay lean. Age caught up with him & I and he got up to 220 lbs I believe. I think he's lost like 22 + lbs. So proud of him! Again Jon loves food, but he has been so committed to this program. He eats off the first 2 tiers of Michi's Ladder and recently he celebrated our Mother's Bday at a buffet. I was surprised that he didn't devour the buffet.lol.

Again, I can't express how proud of him I am. I sponsored him on our coaching team on May 18th. He's taking advantage of the 25% discount. (He loves the P90X Results & Recovery Formula) Although I'm his sponsor there are days when I feel like He's my Coach because he's so smart with nutrition. He makes it simple. Anyhow, Congrats Jon! I can only imaging how freakin RIPPED you are gonna be 45 days from now! JOB WELL DONE!

Coaches need Coaching too

Hello Everyone! I'm sorta back. We are here in Grovetown, GA, but not totally settled in. DirecTv will be here tomorrow morning and Our new couch will be delivered Thursday morning. Most of our stuff is unpacked. Geez I thought I threw away a lot of stuff in INdiana. I guess not. Wayy too many toys! Everyone is asking for pictures and for some reason I haven't captured the moments yet. Been too busy. What? Sara's too busy to take pics?!? Sadly I have been. At a moment when life is so good I feel like I'm failing. Failing with my fitness and eating clean. Failing with my house not being ready. Failing on updating my people on my little life. Mainly my Mom. She wants to see pics of the house and my kids and I just don't have the patience to upload it. *sigh*

God knows how grateful I truly am to have this blessed little life. But I'm just UGH. That's all. Sooo if you're reading this and I know you through Beachbody community or if you're a friend of mine, All I need is some coaching/motivation/words of encouragement. Mainly something to get this girl back on track. I miss the sweat and dedication. It's only been 2 weeks, but I can't live like this anymore. Need structure.
