A number of options are available to you as a Team Beachbody Coach to increase your income - either on a part-time or full-time basis.

How do I become and Independent Team Beachbody Coach?
This business has been designed so that ANYONE with a sincere desire for success can do it - regardless of background or experience.

What if I don't have a sales background?

This is a business about sharing, not selling. Marketing Team Beachbody is about sharing the opportunity with those you talk with every day. As a Team Beachbody Coach, you'll more than likely find your efforts directed more at educating and supporting customers and coaches rather than convincing people to buy something they feel they may not need.

* Education
* Real Estate
* Personal Fitness Trainers

However, consider this: If this were a large franchise offering an opportunity to own your own business, you might consider it. If it cost $100,000 to start, you'd have to ask yourself, "What if it doesn't work?".

Happy Birthday!

Today is my Best Friends birthday! We have been friends since my oldest son was just a couple of months old so almost 8 years. She is absolutely MY go to girl when I need to laugh, cry, need someone to pray with me, or make me an insanely large bowl of guacamole.

I love you Rachel! Happy Birthday!!

Favorite Friday -- The Bodybugg

If you have read any of my latest blog posts you know without a doubt that I am a huge fan of Chalene Johnson. The woman has helped me lose over 30 pounds this last year. And, if that wasn't enough the woman inspires me every day to do more, be more, and love more. She has it going on and then some. So, when she talks, I listen.

A while back I read a post on her blog about some snazzy little device she was wearing on her arm. It was a watch, calorie burning tracker and pedometer. With it you gained access to a website where you can input your calorie intake and then upload the information it recorded during the time you wore it. The website then put it into graphs and charts (so easy to read) that allowed you to see what you burned compared to what you took in and how that would affect your weight loss. So Cool!!

The snazzy little gadget? The Bodybugg.

I ordered one for my birthday and since then I have worn it most everyday. I have on occasion forgotten to take it off and charge it so I've missed a bit of time here and there, but I love it. I love being able to check it during the day and see how many calories I've burned, how many steps I've taken, how many calories I'm burning per minute right then! It is especially great when I'm in the middle of my workouts because just by glancing at the digital display I can see if I need to step it up to reach my calorie burning goal or if I can bring the intensity down a little. It also lets me know at the end of the day if I've reached my calorie burn goal for the day. If not, another workout is in order or a slightly smaller dinner or a evening walk with the boys.

Chalene just posted this video with her thoughts about the Bodybugg on her blog. I wanted to share what a fitness "professional" thought about it with you. Oh yeah, and all the contestants on The Biggest Loser wear one at all times. And you've seen their results!

You Are Who Your Friends Are

This Vlog was posted by Chalene Johnson (my workout guru!!) on her blog which you can find here. I love what she has to say... it is so true.



Surround yourself with friends that will lift you up and make you a better person!!

Smilebox

This was another project I did for a class. This one was for Technology in the Classroom. I think it would be neat to do these for the students and have them playing when the parents come in for teacher conferences. Smilebox has a ton of different templates you can use, this one is more scrapbook like, but they have slide shows and other themes. Its a really neat site if you want to check it out, click here.

Got Funny??

My dad sent me this through e-mail... I don't know if its made the rounds before or not but I thought it was funny! Enjoy!!

The first man married a woman from North Carolina . He told her that she was to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple of days, but on the third day, he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.

The second man married a woman from South Carolina . He gave his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking. The first day he didn't see any results, but the next day he saw it was better. By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done and there was a huge dinner on the table.

The third man married a girl from Michigan . He ordered her to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed, and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything but by the third day, some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye, and his arm was healed enough that he could fix himself a sandwich and load the dishwasher.

He still has some difficulty when he pees.

Random Bits About Me.....

1. I am an adrenaline junky, just don't make me wait for an hour and a half before the thrill. The wait kills me, but once its time my game face is on and I'm ready to roll.

2. I am a sap. I already knew this, but I have embraced it. I mean geesh, what is so wrong with crying during WallE? Or Up? Or Pride and Prejudice? Or, whatever other movie I happen to be watching? All it says about me is that I get sucked in to a story and am able to empathize with the characters. It happens in real life too... I hate to see people in pain and would much rather bare that burden for them.

3. I am spontaneous. I am a make a decision and live with the consequences kind of girl. I do not like hemming & hawing (are those real words?) about anything. Just make a decision and go with it.

4. I want to live life fully. I do not want to sit at home on my sofa and watch it pass me by. I have been given this one life, this amazing gift and I am not going to squander it. I am dreaming big dreams and I am moving toward them.

5. I like to be organized. I like to have a place for everything and everything in its place. Chaos and I do not mix well. It stresses me out and makes me grumpy (yes, I get grumpy *gasp*).

6. I like being active, and I like being active with other people. I am much more likely to go for a walk, rollerblading, bike riding, running, or whatever if I have someone to do it with. So, if you like to do those things and you want a partner, give me a call!

7. I have a lot of interests. I can't even name them all... but I love learning about and doing different things. In fact, one of the things I am studying in my Human Biology are bones and I LOVE IT! There are something like 265 bones in the human body. I only have to learn and be able to identify 50, which is why I have a pelvic bone and a scapula in my school bag right now.

8. I really like lip gloss, toenail polish, 4 inch heels and jeans that fit juuussssttt right. I like to feel pretty.

9. I am strong and I can overcome. These are huge for me. I have always been a start the project, feel overwhelmed by project, quit the project person. It was all about feeling insecure in my ability to accomplish the task. But, this year I learned that I am strong, physically and mentally. I can do what I set my mind to I learned this during my lifting workouts. I pushed myself harder than I thought was possible and ya know what? I was successful every time. That doesn't mean it was easy, not at all. But I CAN became my favorite phrase and it has carried over to every part of my life.
