Transformation Tuesday-- Lisa

Lisa Allen lost 88 lbs. in 14 rounds of 21 Day Fix.

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I had no energy. I would come home from work, eat dinner, and then sit on the couch the rest of the night. On the weekends, I wouldn’t get much done, because I had no energy. I would have great intentions, but they wouldn’t last long. I would work on something for a while, and then take a nap. Needless to say, I didn’t get much done.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
I went to the doctor in January for my annual check-up and got on the scale. I had not been weighing myself at home so I had no idea how much I weighed. I came to the quick realization that I weighed at least 30 pounds more than I did when I gave birth to my son. The doctor didn’t say anything about it, but I was faced with my true reality!

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody help you overcome that challenge?
I am not one to go to a gym to work out. I didn’t want people to be watching the big girl try to exercise. By having a program I could do in the comfort of my own home and be able to modify the movements was a great motivator. After the very first workout, I could barely move or go up steps. I remember trying to get up at my office, was so sore, and my boss asking what was wrong with me. I told him that I had just started the program and that I was so sore. A few hours later, we needed to go upstairs and I said, “Really, you want me to climb the stairs as sore as I am?” He was like “Yes, it will be good for you.” I got up and climbed the stairs, and that was the start of my love for the workouts. My husband gave me my privacy to do my workouts first thing in the morning and supported me completely. I still get up every morning at 4:30 a.m. and do my workout first thing.

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
The program is different every day. You can modify each “Fix” to your fitness ability.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I lost 17 pounds the first round. I have lost pounds with each round. I have just finished my 14th round and am down 88 pounds. The weight loss is great, but I feel so much better and have so much more energy.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I walk into a room with confidence, instead of walking into a room wondering if everyone is looking at the big girl that just walked into the room. I now can shop in the regular section for clothes. I don’t have to shop in the plus-size section. I’ve gotten a whole new wardrobe!

Transformation Tuesday- Nickole

Nickole Dahl lost 47 lbs. with eight rounds of 21 Day Fix EXTREME and Shakeology.

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I’m a mother to four children in less than six years. The baby was three months old when I started the program, and my oldest had just turned six. I felt pretty ashamed of the way I looked and really sad about the way my clothes fit. It was really hard to make the time to take care of myself with so many others to take care of.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
I was really discouraged when the baby weight wasn’t coming off. Then I started slowly gaining more weight, and I just couldn’t bear to keep going in that direction. About that time a friend, now Coach, contacted me about joining her Challenge Group. She was really encouraging, and what I was doing clearly wasn’t working, so I gave it a shot.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody help you overcome that challenge?
I was afraid that I would put in all the work, and not see any results. Also, I was worried how it would impact nursing my baby. After my third child, my attempts to lose weight negatively impacted my milk supply to the point that it actually affected her growth. I was really afraid that would happen again. I worried maybe I was just being selfish. I still have a long way to go, but I’m already a long way from where I started. One thing I learned, which I didn’t expect, was that it is not selfish to ask my family for 30 minutes of the day to take care of me.

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
I like that it is always challenging. I’ve done eight rounds now, and I still have to push every day.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I have lost nearly 50 pounds! Never did I imagine that was possible. I was elated to hit my original goal of 30 pounds. My body has been completely transformed. That is what I am most proud of. I didn’t starve myself and just get skinny; I built a brand-new me.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?I am so much happier! I was dealing with a lot of self-esteem and postpartum issues before I started. There is a new confidence in me now. We have been under a bit of stress due to my husband’s employment situation, but I find it much easier to deal with now. Asserting control over the parts of my life I can change has helped me in accepting the things I don’t have any control over.

How did participating in a Challenge Group help you reach your goals? How did your group support you and keep you accountable?
Being a stay-at-home mom, my existence is sometimes very isolated. Being part of the group helped me to realize that I’m not alone, and there are others working hard toward goals similar to my own. The group was very quick to cheer success, and just as quick to encourage someone having a rough stretch. Working outside a group, it’s easy to slack, because you’re only cheating yourself. When there is a group of people working hard and posting about it, it starts to feel like you’d be cheating them too.

How did your Team Beachbody Coach support you on your journey?
Ashley is really enthusiastic and always encouraging. When I doubted I could do the program, she was sure I could. She also said more than once, “I’m proud of you.” Those are powerful words.

Transformation Tuesday-- Sue

Sue Schmidt, age 52, lost 45 lbs in five rounds of 

21 Day Fix. 

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I’m 52 years old and have had a weight problem all my life. Growing up in an English family it was meat, potatoes, and gravy every night except Fridays which was fried fish. I’ve tried everything out there, even injecting myself in the stomach every morning and living on 400 calories/day (Doctor approved) and you know the song and dance, gained it back plus more. Each time I gained the weight back I got bigger. Last summer I pretty much gave up and figured I was going to be fat for the rest of my life, so live with it! My husband and I went for a walk to the river and he took a picture of me, I thought it would be a good Facebook picture. When I got home and downloaded the picture I was disgusted with what I saw. I found my Coach on Facebook and started the 21 Day Fix and Shakeology. After my 5th round I’ve lost 45 pounds! I feel like a totally different person, I actually like what I see in the mirror! None of my “big” clothes fit anymore… I need to go shopping! 

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
I hated what I saw in the mirror, and when I saw a picture of me I knew it was time. I had already met my Coach online but never really thought about the program… just another weight loss gimmick. I asked my Coach about 21 Day Fix, Shakeology, and the accountability groups. I thought why not. Once I started, I was hooked! Working out came easy, changing my bad habits didn’t seem to be too hard… and having my awesome Coach and the ladies in group really helped me.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?
I thought the hardest part would be totally stopping the crap food, I like my A&W, candy, chips, pop, I could go on… but I haven’t had any of that since I started and I don’t miss it. My Coach is the best, I’ve met some great ladies on my journey, and Autumn is like a drill sergeant and I love her for that!

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
I liked that it was only 30 minutes, and Autumn just keeps you motivated! The food containers made it easy to follow the food program. The recipes were very good and easy, and you get to eat a lot of good food! I love Shakeology! I drink it everyday, it’s filling, tasty and gives me energy, I feel great when I have it after my workout. I have an active job and work outside, I often take a shake with me and it helps keep me keep going especially during the cold winter days.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I have nice body! I have a waist and I went from a size 16/XL to 12/medium. I can wear nice clothes and I like shopping again… I’m actually going to buy a bathing suit! 

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I have more confidence and my husband said I walk prouder. I have arthritis in my knee and hip, before I lost the weight I was in pain and limping. I had a hard time going up and down stairs, now I run up and down stairs and there is no pain! My depression has gone, before I didn’t like going out in public because I was embarrassed by the way I looked. Now I can’t wait for summer! lol

How did participating in a Challenge Group help you reach your goals? How did your group support you and keep you accountable?
Showing up everyday! Posting everyday, posting your food… all that helped me so much! I was accountable I couldn’t cheat… I didn’t want to cheat! The ladies I have met on this journey have been incredible. I don’t want to stop.

Transformation Tuesday- Debra

Debra Acker lost 45 lbs. in 210 days with INSANITY. 

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
When I was turning 50, I had done INSANITY in 2012, lost 17 pounds, and felt pretty good. Then I became ill and was taking all sorts of meds, and gained it back and then some. My daughter got pregnant, and it freaked me out that I might end up old and obese, and unable to enjoy life with my grandchildren. That was it! I stopped the meds cold turkey, and went on a 1200-calorie high-protein, high-fiber diet, did INSANITY and lifted weights, and lost 45 pounds. I have lost five more now, and am rockin’ my size six skinny jeans!

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody help you overcome that challenge?
Well, the biggest challenge was all of the aches and pains in my joints. They aren’t gone, but my legs and shoulders are much stronger now. Also, whereas before I wore clothes to hide my body, now I want to show it off! I feel so good and so energetic! That’s why I became a Coach, because I want to tell everyone that it doesn’t matter how old or ill or out of shape you are, you can take control of your health. You can make changes for you that will make you feel better about every aspect of your life — physical, emotional, and spiritual ! They are all connected! 

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
The ability to do the workouts at home, at my convenience, and in a small space with no equipment. Shaun T is an excellent teacher and motivator! I would love to be in a video dripping with sweat, panting, and showing how we 53-year-old women have to modify, but can still do it! (LOL!)

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I am back to my extroverted, enthusiastic self! I am confident, energetic, and positive. I feel ready to face menopause and aging with the knowledge that I am starting from a place of good health and can sustain it for the long haul. I cheer everyone on, and tell them they are training for a marathon, not a sprint. It is a change of attitude and behavior. Mind over matter. It is about getting healthy, not dieting.

Transformation Tuesday-- Haylee

Haylee Nelson lost 40 lbs. with 21 Day Fix. 

"I have always watched my weight and tried to be smart about what I ate. However, when I got pregnant, I went overboard and figured I could eat whatever I wanted. It continued after I had my baby. I didn’t think it was a big deal until I saw a number on the scale that I had never seen before and actually saw myself in the mirror."

"For me, I have always hated — and by hated, I mean loathed — working out. I never wanted to do it, ever. But with 21 Day Fix, the workouts were all different and only 30 minutes each, so I thought: “Hey, I can do this!”

"I am really proud of how I look now, and that I feel so much more comfortable and confident in the way I look! I have just been happier all around in my life, and have been feeling much more comfortable in my own skin."
