New to Message Boards!

Hi there!!

While I'm not new to MyFitnessPal, I am fairly new to the message boards. I've only just recently really started reading posts on a regular basis. I wanted to take a second to introduce myself!

My name is Amanda and I've been on my weight loss journey going on 3 years (anniversary is 1/1/15). I've lost 60+ lbs to date through Zumba, Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred & Ripped in 30, Turbo Fire, Insanity and Hip Hop Abs. I just started Chalene Johnson's PiYo program and can't wait to see my results with it!

I don't "eat clean" or follow IIFYM. I simply follow my adjusted calorie budget, workout on a regular basis and hope for the best! I plan all my meals out the night before so I know what my day will look like and if I have any wiggle room for any unplanned indulgences. I weigh once a week on Friday's because I have a very busy, on the go weekend schedule and that gives me a little room for error on Friday nights/Saturdays.

I just became a Beachbody coach and am so excited at the thought of being able to help people achieve their health and fitness goals like I have. Sometimes I still can't believe where I started and how far I've come, it's just amazing to think about all the times I've wanted to give up, yet haven't!! So many times before I've started and lost 5 lbs and then thought, "Okay, that's enough for now" and went back to my old ways. Little did I know back then, you have to stick to it!!

I'm looking for some awesome ladies to add to my already rockin' MFP family who is full of love and support. Feel free to add and I will do the same!

Hope you all have a beautiful Tuesday!
