How did you learn about Fit, Fyne, and Fabulous?
Nicole is a fellow coach and I saw what she was doing with her group and asked if I could shadow her because she is so AWESOME!!!
 
What prevented you from reaching your weight loss goals prior to joining Fit, Fyne and Fabulous?
Lack of consistency and motivation. Plus my eating was not the best.

How did Fit, Fyne, and Fabulous help you get closer to reaching your fitness goals?

It made me more accountable because Nicole threw me right into leading challenge groups. And you have to lead by example. Plus all of the ladies in the group bring so much excitement and motivation.

What has been your most rewarding NSV or “Non-Scale Victory” since joining FFF?

I have been able to fit into sizes I haven’t seen for a very long time. Some even smaller than I was on my wedding day. Plus I am finally back into the 160s club.12374981_10205328989326067_4877544544845774063_o

Think of a day where you felt you wanted to give up on your journey. How did Fit, Fyne and Fabulous motivate you to keep going?

Looking at everyone posting their sparkle pictures motivates me on days where I don’t want to push play. Also the encouraging words from the other coaches every morning is the highlight of my day. Everything comes from the heart.

What would you say to a friend who was trying to decide between getting a trainer at the gym vs working out from home and getting virtual accountability?

G HalloweenYou can’t beat spending up front money on a program and shakes versus paying a monthly fee to a gym that you may not even use. And personal trainers are expensive. I used to have one. But my new personal trainers are my fellow coaches and of course our celebrity trainers. You get more bang for your buck getting FREE virtual training and working out at home.


What have you learned about yourself during your fitness journey thus far?

I have learned that I was limiting myself. I am so much stronger than I thought mentally and physically. And truth be told the ladies in this group have helped me find my way spiritually.

What advice/tips would you like to share with others who are on the same fitness journey?

This process is not a sprint, but a marathon. Make sure your short term expectations are in check. If they aren’t you could be setting yourself up for failure. Also your diet is very important. You can workout until you are blue in the face, but if what you are eating isn’t good for you, it will all be for nothing.
