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.

Don't wait. 

Because there is nothing worse than regret. Time for you to be all you were meant to be.

Love ya!

Ready to fight for it?

Why not you?

Mine is everywhere. 
Many of you don't know my past. You see, I have 3 college degrees. Every time I would finish one, I would find something else I wanted to learn. I have worked in early child development, Accounting, was a software engineer for 5 years, and ran my own multi million dollar business for 10 years prior to my Cancer battle... I still say this is what caused my cancer because I had to work 80 hour work weeks to keep that thing rollin'.

All of it prepared me for today. But none of it filled my soul with joy. I know I am here to help others and those other professions, just didn't fill my cup. 

Coaching entered my life during my recovery from cancer. I was led to superfoods and healing my body through nutrition and movement and it changed everything for me. 

This is NOT about weightloss.

Yes it is a side effect of eating right and moving my body. But I help many gain weight too. This is about total and complete happiness and contentment with your life. 

 I get to connect with people all over the U.S. and Canada and help encourage them on their journey and they encourage me right back. 

I can work from anywhere with a wifi connection. I have worked on sailboats, cruise ships, airplanes, trains, cars,  hotel rooms, my garden, the park, the library, the beach... you name it. 

I wake up excited to check in with my tribe and see who I can help encourage and often times, they turn around and encourage me. 

My body is stronger than it has ever been.
I look forward to Monday morning. 
I LOVE my job and would do it even if I wasn't paid to do so. 
I am encouraged to spend time developing myself, filling my tank. 
I am surrounded by like minded individuals that uplift me rather than those who bring me down.
Every day I am encouraged to continue working towards being the best version of me. 

SO my question for you is this. 
If you don't like Monday mornings and commuting, what are you going to do to fix it? 

I am accepting applications for my team. Why not you? Are you willing to put an hour a day in now, for freedom from that job and commute you hate? 

Email me at momwhatsfordinner@yahoo.com and let's chat. Would love to see if this is a fit for you. This opportunity changed my life in every way you can imagine. #WhyNotYou  ???

ALL LEVELS
Many will not start their journey until they see someone at their level. I have worked with people from 300+ pounds down to people who are 90 lbs and need to put weight on! ALL LEVELS ... I cannot stress this enough. You are enough right where you are right now! 
Look forward to hearing from you! 

The Ultimate Cleanse and Detox in 21 days

Hi friends and family and followers! You all know my heart... ...the more I think about the food that we eat, the more it fuels my passion to want to serve anyone and everyone who wants to work towards feeling the healthiest and happiest they can! You all know I am#FedUp  and have a passion to #EndTheTrend  of#obesity.

I learned the hard way there are foods that just pull away from my body and mind feeling good--or even RIGHT, and the sad truth is, they can end your life.

No more! It's time for a change....a complete paradigm shift in the way that we eat and think about the food that we consume. By way of the Ultimate Reset! A 21 day detox that focuses on WHAT we eat to nourish and fuel our bodies with daily. Over the course of three weeks it progressively gets more strict and eliminates those foods that build up toxins in our body. It includes supplements to revitalize our system and a full cooking guide. No starvation or liquid only!! I SAID NO STARVATION!!!! Yep, you eat your way through this.

Honestly, you already know in YOUR heart if you need a change or not. It's evident in the way your body feels. You have seen my journey and know how far I fell off the healthy way of living. Since I have changed my life and way of thinking  and really focus on getting HEALTHY and resetting my ENTIRE body. I have NEVER felt better!

Here is the clincher... NO EXERCISE!  For some this is good, for others this is bad. It is hard for me to give up exercise, but it is the perfect way to ease into a healthy life if you are someone who has been dormant for a while.
I can promise this will crush your sugar and dairy addictions, and you WILL lose weight! Not to mention it has helped people get off their anti-depressants, finally curing insomnia, fibromyalgia,  IBS, lethargy AND cutting insulin intake by half*!!!

If you:

Struggle w/ Fatigue

Experience "Brain Fog"

Anxiety and/or Depression

Digestive Issues

Have Undergone IVF or Chemo

High Blood Pressure/Cholesterol

Sugar Addiction

Caffeine Dependency

Consume Excess Artificial Sweeteners/Processed Foods

Have A Nice Spare Tire

Dependent On Prescription Drugs

NEED A CHANGE!

Does this sound like you? Join small our group of committed people (ready to feel amazing like you) and kick off Spring with a clean slate and a FRESH START. Comment below with a 'TELL ME MORE'  or just private message me (momwhatsfordinner@yahoo.com) and I will connect you with the info you need to gain an invaluable education on how to FUEL your body for LIFE. 

What the Ultimate Reset is NOT:

-> A starvation diet.
-> An abrupt cleanse that's hard on the body.
-> A laxative-based, colon-focused cleanse, which fails to truly detoxify the whole body.
*While following the meal plan provided BUT modifying for appropriate amounts of proteins and other nutrients!

Contact me today so we can get your kits to you in time!!!

Cheesy Broccoli Quinoa and Giveaway

My daughter and I are Quinoa (keen-wa) fanatics. It is the perfect grain. Gluten-Free, packed with protein and so tasty! I use it as a substitute for barley alot. I make Quinoa patties, all the time and also use it in casseroles as a substitute for rice. We eat a lot of rice and it is nice to have other things to eat. it holds its form and texture so much better than rice does. This dish is one of our favorite. It tastes like a macaroni and cheese dish, only much healthier. If you love a good broccoli cheddar soup, you are going to love this dish. Same flavors, but with some texture.

Cheesy Broccoli Quinoa

adapted from Closet Cooking

1 cup quinoa, well rinsed

1 3/4 cups chicken broth

2 cups broccoli, chopped

1 cup cheddar, shredded

salt and pepper to taste

Add quinoa, broth and broccoli to a large pot. 

Cover and bring the quinoa, broth and broccoli to a boil over medium heat, reduce the heat and simmer covered until the broth has been absorbed and the quinoa is tender,about 15-20 minutes.

Mix in the cheese, let it melt and season with salt and pepper.

Serve!

December's Clean Eating Crock Pot Group

I am in the middle of leading this amazing group right now on this clean eating challenge. It is going so well, we are getting a lot of people asking to join midway through. SO back by popular demand, we are doing another one December 1st!

Free grocery list, FREE recipes, FREE support and motivation.

Why do it? One week of putting real whole food in your body can change everything. Your mood, Your aches and pains, Your sleep habits, your outlook on life.

Why not clear out your body before Thanksgiving? I think you are all capable of eating clean for one week. I also think the way you feel at the end of the week will blow your mind.

If you are planning to change your lifestyle in 2015, this is the perfect first step. Life is all about balance. We all over do it on Thanksgiving so this is a great way to balance it out.

Okay Holidays! Not this year! I'm not going to let all the deliciousness of holiday foods do me in!! I have worked hard on my fitness goals and I LOVE that I've learned how to eat clean and still ENJOY my meals--just as much as when those meals were not healthy! Quite a few of you have been asking for recipes and/or meal plans suited for the holidays and winter festivities that your family will be sure to enjoy! All while saving TIME by using my favorite kitchen appliance--MY CROCKPOT!!! So, I've decided it's time for another FREE clean eating focus group!! You IN? 

7 day this time and it is FREE! Can't beat that price, eh? 

My last group, people dropped anywhere from 3-8 lbs...in a week!! Not too shabby!!

I will be providing a complete "Crockpot" meal plan (easy to follow and yummy!) WITH shopping list! Everyone will be expected to do some sort of exercise but I will provide some workout plans too. {But walking your dog would count too!}

It'll also include: 

•Daily motivation/check-in 

•My tips on getting those most out of your work outs 

•Support from the group 

•My favorite healthy snacks

YES?? Simply ask to join the group here:
