When ENOUGH is ENOUGH its time to take ACTION and change your life permanently

Hey beautiful.
Yep, I am talking to you. 
Right now I want you to STOP the negative self talk and realize how amazing you are. 
So you have dark circles under your eyes, from taking care of EVERYONE else but you. 
SO WHAT your tummy is stretched out from the LIFE you brought into this world. Maybe you haven't had time or money to make it to the hair or nail salon so a messy bun is a constant companion on your head. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! 

I realize first hand how much of our identity is given up when we decide to have children. I also know Mom's would not change a thing. We give our ALL to those we love. But... I am here to remind you.
YOU GOTTA FIRST LOVE YOURSELF!!!

You have those precious eyes watching. What do you want to teach them? 
Self love?
or
Self defeat?

It is a humbling experience to become a mom and no one quite prepares you for that. I know what it is like to have a tummy that feels like jello and NO energy to do anything about it. Which led me to just eating comfort food to console my self loathing thoughts. 

Is this you?

This is the place I was in 3 years ago. I was fat, sick and nearly dead..

Well maybe not, but I sure felt like it. I was 6 weeks POST operation for the removal of 3 cancer tumors in my body. My tummy had been sliced open 8 inches for the biggest tumor to be removed which REALLY did a number on my self esteem. I looked 6 months pregnant because of the HUGE tumor that was growing in my uterus.  Frustrated, defeated and full of tears I remember laying in bed thinking "THIS IS NOT THE WAY LIFE IS SUPPOSED TO BE!" 

I hated my skin, hated my hair, hated everything about me. I was angry at the world and I KNEW that I didn't want to feel that way any more. NEVER again! I made the decision to give myself the love I needed and wanted. So I could learn to love others and help others stop hating themselves. I never looked back. I didn’t feel good and I had to make a change. I was introduced to yoga, clean eating, and superfoods through my Cancer recover counseling and ended up getting more education in nutrition. I also documented the process and what I learned in my book: Nourish - The beginner's guide to eating healthy and staying fit. 

I fell in love with inversions. Headstand, handstand, pincha, but I could not hold them for long and my alignment was not awesome. I knew I needed more muscle and toning. I had lost 10 lbs just from adding superfoods and yoga into my life and I finally had more energy to add more. So I started adding a 30 minute workout to my life. What happened next...

Over the course of those next 3 months I focused on “ME” for at least 30-45 each day. I would push play for my workout session. I sweated, I cried, I thought I would never change, but then right before my eyes my body started to change. As I embraced clean eating and drank Shakeology daily my skin began to glow, my hair and nails got stronger, and I had more natural energy! I was stronger and I started to have more confidence. WHAT!!!! I was THAT girl who NEVER had EVER Stuck to a fitness program in my life. I always started our the year making a New Years Resolution to get in shape and then I was gone in 2 weeks and stuck paying a membership for the year. I was the girl who would walk into a gym, take some classes and then walk around doing the weights (COMPLETELY WRONG) acting like I knew what I was doing, then I would go make a huge italian dinner with bread and noodles and loads of wine. I had never permanently changed my diet before, but, I liked it! I mean I REALLY liked who I was transforming into, and I LOVED the way my LIFE was changing. 

This is my transformation of 2 rounds 21 day fix and 1 round 21 day fix extreme and Shakeology. Total time 3 months.

Total weight lost from start to finish -65lbs. 
I started running little groups of other women and men that wanted to change their lives too. 
That is when the miracles started rolling in!
My best friend Penny has lost OVER 100 pounds so far!

My daughter lost 35 pounds!

And that was just the beginning! As of now I personally have been able to help HUNDREDS of people reach their goals. I also started a team that is joining forces with me and we all work together to help people as much as we can. 

My inversions sure changed too!!!

I can say that because of my team, the support of the challenge groups and the other women in the group I truly have found a way to love the skin that I am in! 


We all have imperfections.  I earned my imperfections and I learned to love them! They are a part of who I am. Does this speak right to your heart??? Then maybe its time for you to trust me and finally take that leap of faith and join my next challenge group!

So now, my job as a coach is to pay it forward. I am going to be launching a specific accountability and support group that is geared towards matching you up and with a fitness program and nutrition guide to meet your needs but to walk you through the process of changing your unhealthy habits, creating a more positive mindset, embracing your imperfections and chucking the word diet to the wind. We are not dieting, we are creating a healthy lifestyle. Because we are supposed to be ABUNDANT in ALL areas of our lives. 

So STOP making excuses and make a DECISION to change instead. I promise you will work just as hard on your excuses that you will on effort towards your goals. So why not work toward the POSITIVE?

What Do I Need For This Group?
-Each participant is required to have me as their coach. You can create an account here. 

-You are required to do a fitness program, which I will help you to pick the one that best fits your needs. EMAIL ME to tell me you want in we will go over your needs, your current struggles and then decide the program for you.

-You are required to replace 1 meal a day with Shakeology for the duration of the 5 weeks because as I am teaching you how to change your eating habits and give you the tools to make this a lifestyle change we want to have at least 1 meal each day that is quick and easy but isn’t lacking in your nutritional quality. Shakeology does that! It is my saving grace because quite honestly there are days that I am so busy that I don’t have time to make a balanced meal so this is my go to!! It has EVERYTHING your body needs, and is superfoods! Plus it really does taste awesome!

–You are required to log into our closed My Challenge Tracker App daily where I am going to share tips, recipes, meal plans, tips to handle eating out, and emotional eating plus improving your body image. We will truly take your journey one day at a time! I have been through the process and I know at what point you want to throw in the towel, I know when you hit plateaus and what situations tend to trip you up. I have tools and tips for all of those. There is no more trying to navigate this change on your own. We are working at this together.

–My goal is to get you a program that you are excited about and that you start and complete it. I do not want it to be something that sits on your shelf and collects dust!

Does this sound like something you would like to do?

If so, take the time to EMAIL ME. I will contact you within 24 hours to discuss whether this would be a good fit! I am accepting a small group of customers for this group and I would love to have some motivated women who are really ready to make a change! Let’s face it, there will never be a perfect time. The right time is now! So let’s get started!

I am NOT going to let you fail! I am giving you my word that I am going to support, guide and help you to truly make a change, live a more positive life and embrace who you are on the inside out! We live in a world full of comparison and its time to chuck that to the wind and just BE YOU!!!!!!
Cannot wait to help you achieve ALL of your hopes and dreams. LET'S TALK!

New Year New You for 2017 Let's get a plan!

Hi, I am Christi, and I am here to motivate you.

Fail to plan, plan to fail. 
The New Year is upon us, and while I don't think you need a new year to start, I know a lot of people choose it as a time to start, because it is a clean slate. 

I am a clean slate kind of person. 
I love Monday's. 
I love a New Year.
It is just the feeling of a clean blank page that I like, and those are the times I have associated as "fresh" starts. 

If you are a clean slate kind of person and are ready to make some changes this next year, let me explain to you why you need a coach. 

Most reputable coaches have a company backing them. It is important for your vision to be in line with the companies vision. For instance. my companies mission statement is:
Help people achieve their goals and live a healthy, fulfilling life.
It is also important to know what the company offers, and how the coaches are trained. 
Basically... what is the agenda? 
It my duty as a coach to talk with you and hear what your current situation is like. 

What is your goal?
How fast do you want to get to that goal?
What do you eat?
What do you splurge on?
What can you not live without?
Do you drink and if so how often?
Do you currently exercise?
What kind (if any) of exercise do you enjoy?
What kind of exercise do you hate?
What are your struggles?
What are your strengths?

It is my duty to listen, and find a solution for you that fits in with your lifestyle. There is no ONE SIZE FITS ALL solution. There are many many solutions that help so many different types of lifestyles. 

I am opening a few slots for people who want to work with me for 6 months. 
Why 6 months?
Because I want to HELP people who REALLY need HELP, and people who really need help are not going to be done needing help and encouragement after one month. 

My services are FREE.
My company pays me and rewards me for helping people, that is not your job. Your job will be to show up and work on you. 

It will take an investment in your health. 
Not much.
You pay more to Starbucks and Frito-Lay than it will cost you. You have to learn to control your habits, or your habits will control you.  If you really want a change, it will 100% start with your diet. So I will find where those "snacks" happen and exchange it for superfoods, either in the form of a smoothie, or if you are not a smoothie person, I will show you easy recipes like yogurt, granola, pancakes, lava cakes, waffles, ice cream etc.... 
It ALWAYS starts with what you eat, so we conquer your diet FIRST. 
We do NOT DIET.
We eat. 
I say WE because I do it right along with you. This is a LIFESTYLE. I just teach you how to rethink your food as fuel. By all means we want you to eat and eat well. Just with real whole food ingredients. I teach you how to make these EASY recipes and also teach you how to eat out. You get to LIVE. We want this to be a PERMANENT fix for you. 

Here are some of the programs I am offering that start in January and February. Click the link and it will bring up an email directly to me that lets me know you want more information on the program.



3 day Kickstart to the New Year - An easy light 3 day cleanse to start your year off right. 

New Year New You - We start with a 3 day cleanse and follow up with clean eating and exercise.

Kick Cancer - 21 days to an Alkaline body detox, followed by clean eating to maintain. Completely cleans out your body, great for those wanting to know if they have food allergies. You eat but we slowly eliminate grains, meats and dairy. After 21 days you slowly start to add them back one at a time so you learn what you are tolerant and intolerant to. This has eliminated symptoms of SO MANY of my clients with autoimmune diseases. 

CUSTOM One on One - I work with you one on one and tailor make a plan that will work for your lifestyle. Nutrition, Personal Development, Exercise, Encouragement from me daily.


If you don't take the time to love yourself and fill your cup first... You will fizzle out and not be able to be there to help others. Let's get you to where you want to be. This is ALL about you. 
today!
Don't wait. 
Because there is nothing worse than regret. Time for you to be all you were meant to be.

Love ya!
Christi

Freedom to travel and see the world.
Freedom to dress the way I want.
Freedom to get the tattoos i want.

I am a yogi, and certified yoga teacher. So my brand is centered around balancing all things in life. Because we were meant to be abundant in ALL areas of our lives.

Documenting the process of the 3 week yoga retreat

Five days ago I started doing an online yoga retreat. For 30 minutes a day I am pushing play on an online yoga program with awesome instructors. It starts at the very beginning of yoga. Even though I am a 200 hour registered yoga teacher, I LOVE returning back to the basics and making sure my foundation is still where it needs to be. That is what I love about yoga, it is a practice, and always there for you at every point of your journey.

Day one:



On day one we met Vytas. If you are wondering where you have seen him before, he has been on Survivor twice, and his brother Aras is one of the winners. Besides that he is one of the most popular yoga instructors in Los Angeles. I felt he did an amazing job of bringing awareness to the mat and a good solid foundation in important poses like Downward Facing Dog.


Day two:



Day two was just as enjoyable. We spent a lot of time in low lunge and Vytas once again did a fabulous job of breaking down these foundation stretch poses. I may have mentioned our team of yoga teachers has add on's for the retreat. Today I taught and broke down the halfway lift or 

Ardha Uttānāsana. You can see my addition to the retreat here: 



Halfway lift or 

Ardha Uttānāsana



Day three:



On day 3 we explored more balance postures. Vytas broke down tree and other balance postures with key alignment cues that will help us stay on track down the line in our practice. I also included a clip of me getting some cardio in with Country Heat. Let me know if you are ever wanting to add cardio to your practice! 

Day four:

We flowed it together today! It was a fabulous practice that left me feeling energized after.There was more special focus on getting Chatturanga correct, which as a yoga teacher, it makes me very happy. In class I see way too many people who have not been trained, just skip right through that pose. Not good. It is a pose all by itself. It also happened to be my 3 year yoga birthday! I have officially been practicing for 3 years! 


Day five:
Today we got into a more intense flow and it felt great! Had my daughter back with me and we enjoyed the practice a lot. I love how Vytas always pauses to make sure everyone adjusts their alignment. This is about progress, not pushing. 

I will update you guys next week how it is going! Not to late to join me!
So far this program has been outstanding. My team of 200+ hour yoga instructors have put together add on's to this retreat. With daily asana breakdown. Mindset, Motivation, Breathing and much more.
Join us for the next round! 

Just email me to hold your spot! momwhatsfordinner@yahoo.com



Special shout out to Wicked Custom Apparel for a lot of the shirts you see. One lucky participant in our yoga retreat will win a shirt from them.

Weightloss transformation

 I couldn't let this day go by without sharing my partner in sweat's victories.
The greatest gift this job has given me is the ability to change the lives of those I love... when they are ready.
My daughter Taylor Ann has always been beautiful on the inside and out, but to see her radiate such confidence and joy is the GREATEST GIFT EVER. To see her happy and healthy is PRICELESS
So ‪#‎Thankful‬ I took a shot at coaching. THIS is what I get to do every day!! What a blessing!
LOVE YOU TAYLOR!!!! So proud of you!!!
My daughter uses one shakeology and does 30 minutes of guided exercise each day. Would love to help you find a program for you! Contact me today: momwhatsfordinner@yahoo.com

Your only limit is you

I have been reading through emails tonight. The response to our 21 day results has been amazing, so if I haven't responded I promise I am getting back to you.
So many people saying they have been holding themselves back. The excuses I hear for people not starting their journey:
I am afraid of failing
I have never been successful before
It's too expensive
I don't have energy

Just to name a few. 
Let me just make something clear. The only way you fail is if you don't try. Have you ever really tried? With me? With my team? And don't you even tell me it is too expensive. I see you buying a bag of chips for $4 and a Starbucks for $5 and a Jamba Juice for $6.... You just CHOOSE to put the wrong things in your body.

Ever crave a banana after you eat one? No. because you are giving your body nutrients. Give your body a bag of chips and it wants another bag of chips... because it is craving nutrients. Feed the body nutrients and KILL cravings forever!
It is a choice. It saves me hundreds of dollars a month. I was blessed through my cancer battle to have the opportunity to get educated in nutrition and what my body needs to survive and keep cancer away. It is nearly impossible to do nowdays, unless you are super diligent (can you eat 5 spinach salads a day? I can't!) to get your nutrients. You NEED to supplement your diet unless again... like I said... you are super diligent. I consider myself pretty strict and committed and I was nowhere close to my nutritional needs. So no.. it is NOT expensive. It is less than a latte a day and has your entire nutritional needs and then some.
Last but not least... you don't have energy because you don't have proper nutrition.
There... I just answered the top 4 objections I get from people who come to me to start their health journey, but fail to take the leap to commit.
YOU are the only thing standing in your way. Start being your own advocate rather than the person keeping you in chains.
Let's do this.

21 day weightloss transformation

I promised my results in 21 days and here they are:


I lost 11.5 inches in 21 days. What did I do?

1 Shakeology Superfood Shake a day
30 minutes of guided exercise a day


I eat clean yummy food, and I commit to pushing play no matter what. I check in online with my peeps. We are all working toward similar goals so they keep me going and vice versa. That has made all the difference for me. However I realize some people are private and want one on one help. I do that too! We have something for everyone. 

At any rate.. this program I used is on sale for just $10 with the purchase of your shakes for one more week. You save $60 and even get a cute tank top for finishing. 

Look, the time is going to pass anyway. Give me 21 days and 30 minutes a day and let's have you ending your Summer STRONG!

Hit me up when you are ready! momwhatsfordinner@yahoo.com

Before and After transformation


My #SundayShoutout goes to this amazing soul @pennywade who is also co-leading in our FIt For Summer group that starts tomorrow.

EVERYONE has a different starting point. We all have our story, and our choices, and our excuses. The thing that sets us apart, is that we are ready to work on ourselves.

I remember hitting that point, but not knowing where to start. I remember going to the gym and attending classes and trying to figure out what my body needed. It didn't work, because I didn't know what I was doing.

Since then I have been blessed to receive and education that has allowed me to LEARN about nutrition, yoga, fitness, wellness, mindset etc... It is my passion to HELP those at their beginning to get on this journey and realize they are worth it! EVERYONE deserves to be happy and healthy. Let's get your before and after!

We start Tuesday July 5th! Hit me up!

Live the life of your dreams, stop waiting, start doing.

When I FIRST became a coach ...I did it to become healthy. PERIOD. I knew I needed accountability to do so. I believe everyone does unless you have the will power of Jesus.. and I don't! 

Then When I signed up, I was told that VISUALIZATION and Picturing what you want WHILE putting the work behind it was KEY. I pictured myself with long hair, a slim build, happy and healthy, traveling... basically I pictured this picture.... AND GUESS WHAT? It's real! It is no longer a dream or a goal, it has happened and is continuing to happen. 

I am not here to shame you in to thinking you aren't enough where you are. Because you ARE enough. I am here to tell you that IF YOU ARE NOT where you want to be... you can get there. YOU have the power! I am a strong believer people but at some point you have to STOP looking UP and START looking INSIDE yourself. God gave you the strength beautiful. You have it. You can do it! 
.
WHATEVER you want, it's possible. WHATEVER you can dream, you can DO. We get JADED from life and we forget that mentality we have as children that let's us SET FREE our imagination, before we are jaded from FAILURE. GUESS WHAT? Failure is STUPID. 

The only way you fail, is if you stand still and don't do anything. YOU hold the power.

I would love to help you find it. I work with my team on mindset and the will to push through and conquer or fears and celebrate our triumphs. You ready?

Get some Motivation this Monday with this amazing transformation


It is #MotivationalMonday and no one motivates me more than my best friend Penny. This right here is her 2 year transformation.

I would be lying if I didn't say this Woman right here wasn't a HUGE part of my why when I started. Working through my recovery and finding an education in nutrition and movement, I was eager to share what I learned. 

I was so excited when Penny told me she wanted to work through her recovery too. Through superfoods, and a COMMITMENT to improving her health... she has totally turned her life around. Penny has done many of our programs. I started her out with 21 day fix. She also does cize and P90 and some P90X. She is the supreme example that it is NEVER too late. She fights type one diabetes and thyroid disease... so she has the excuses... but she pushed through them. Can you tell i am SO PROUD!?!💪


If you are ready to make a change. Please contact me. We have a large team of people with stories like mine and Penny's. We encourage each other, motivate each other, are there for each other when we fall... cuz we ALL fall... it is how you get back up and rise from the ashes that matters. 

We have a new support group starting June 6th. Would love to help you find a program that will work for you and have you join us! 

What are you waiting for? 
All levels, shapes, and sizes welcome. 👇
