I have tried quick weight loss pills, various diets and wasted 1000's of dollars in an effort to feel good about myself and to lose weight.
In 2009, I decided to focus on me and at that time I started by walking and changing the way I was eating. I took ownership of my life: no more pills, fad diets and wasting money on ineffective weight loss schemes.
In February 2010, I watched an infomercial
for Beachbody's Turbo Jam which changed my life. Previously I felt that I was not able to exercise and that I would be ridiculed if I tried. Turbo Jam gave me the confidence to try and then later I became a Team Beachbody Coach.
By November 2010, I had lost 110 pounds!!!!
My goal is to share what I have learned from my journey and to share my passion with others. I have the personal experience, continuing fitness and nutrition certifications to help you achieve your goals. I also want to share that I have Osteoarthritis that affects the joints of my right shoulder and both hips. My orthopedic surgeon told me in 2017 that I need to have a total hip replacement on my right side. He also mentioned to me, that if I weren’t as active as I am with the classes I teach, that I wouldn’t be able to move and walk as well as I am. I thank PiYo for keeping me going and able to postpone surgery until November 2021. Yes, I do have to modify moves and I can’t do everything anymore, buy I am a fighter and I refuse to let my hip stop me. TEAM BEACHBODY COACH - 2010 - current
