As many of you know, this was our first cycle of fertility treatments. It was an interesting, unique and hard experience all rolled into one. We were put on the cycle of femara, following an ultrasound to check for follicles, a trigger shot and progesterone supplements.  Good news from the cycle- I responded well to the femara. I produced 3 follicles however, only 1 was mature enough. Hey, it only takes 1 right?  Everything else looked great so, we were able to move forward with the trigger shot! This is where we ran into the first bit annoyance. Insurance and fertility treatments, well it's a joke. So, I had a bit of sticker shock getting my prescriptions from the pharmacy Oh well, insurance wasn't going to stop us from moving forward! The same night as the ultrasound, I gave myself the trigger shot. A shot into my stomach. Which didn't hurt at all, the anticipation of giving myself a shot was worse than the shot itself lol Savannah was very interes

So, if you follow me on Facebook at all got probably noticed I kept talking about going to Nashville for something called summit. Let me tell you, it was amazing!  But, what is the beachbody summit? It's an annual event where beachbody coaches from all over come together for workshops, trainings, keynote speakers and live workouts with celebrity trainers. Not only that, to connect with fellow coaches! To broaden our network and learn from the best!  Traveling makes more excuses to eat poorly. Given this was a health conscious seminar, I really made sure to keep on track! So, I packed a cooler full of all this stuff to keep snacks and meals on point!  10 hour drive landed us at Music City Center in Nashville! The first day was a bit of a whirl wind! We got started our trip by a little shopping at the core! What's the core? A beachbody store! I was able to buy the entire performance line before it was released to the public! Which my husband has

Now that we're all singing Jimmy Buffet (awesome by the way) I have a recipe to share with you! Sorry, no alcohol involved in this one! Just some amazing super foods.. ;) lol It's summer time and everyone is wanting to refresh with some summer favorites! Not much better than a piña colada in the summertime! So ladies and gentlemen (don't lie guys, we know you like them too!) I give you piña colada  shakeology! Blend and enjoy! If it makes you feel better, serve it in your favorite margarita glass while blaring some Jimmy Buffet! That'll do the trick for ya ;) lol

People probably see several folks in their new feeds spewing off some beachbody love with the "coaching" lable associated with it. Most people probably also roll their eyes thinking "oh here we go. Another pyramid scheme victim". Well, let me help you set the record straight here! What is a beachbody coach and what exactly can you do with the business? There are 3 different business routes you can take as coach!  1. Discounts- if you love beachbody products you can become a coach simply to soak in the 25% discount on products! 2. Hobby- this is me folks!- hobby, you can work the business and grow the business part time. Your goal isn't to quit your full time job but, making enough money earn a car payment or pay for vacation is good enough for you! Spread the beachbody gospel and help others makes for a pretty awesome hobby! Hobby doesn't necessarily mean short term. I am in beachbody for the long haul, I just want to continue pursui
