A MOST AWESOME FRIEND of mine (SexyCook) suggested I share my story. Listen up kids.....here is a tale for the times, straight from my blog. #enjoy
GREETINGS!!!!
Hey, hey, hey!! Today I have finished two full months of TurboFire and I must say…..WOW. Let’s break it down.
TURBOFIRE UPDATE
Okay, so since I started about two months ago, I have lost at least 13 lbs and I have no idea how many inches. I will re-measure tonight and get those to you. =[ But I now wear a size 16 and I was an 18 at the beginning of the second month, so…….yeah. And I have four big bags of clothes sitting on my floor, that I can’t do anything with. So two people I know and love will appreciate that.
MOVING FORWARD
My doctor’s appointment was last Friday and I just wanted, with all my heart, to be at or under 200 lbs. Needless to say I didn’t make that number and I was real sad. But then I thought about it and I realized.
1. I lost over 13 lbs in 2 months. Who does that?
2. I dropped an entire pants size in 30 days. Who does that?
3. I’m more active and lighter now than I was in high school and I feel so much better. 4. I look cute in the bathing suit I bought like two years ago. (Wanna see?!?)
5. Did I tell you that I can see LIGHT between my legs? It’s was like discovering a new species of flower. I was awestruck.
So instead of beating myself up about what I didn’t achieve, I celebrated the things I have achieved and began to plan my next move and I am very excited about where I am heading.
SN: My doctor was VERY proud of me about my weight loss.
MY PHOTOS
So here is Day 1, Day 30 and about Day 60. (I’ve been doing this for 2 months yet today is said to be Day 56…strange.) And also my swimsuit pic! I suspect by the time it is seasonable enough to wear, it may be too big! I still have 3 more months of TF to do! Let’s hopefully get at least a wearing or two out of it. =P
The interesting thing about these pictures is that I lost more weight between Day 1 and Day 30, yet I appear to have lost more weight between Day 30. Team Inches!
SKIN BRUSHING
So…..I looked at my progress photos and yeah I can see some progress but there are so many things that I need to work on while toning and a slimming down. I noticed that my stretch marks are fading, especially on my shoulders, while others marks are becoming a little more apparent. So I heard through a grapevine about this thing called skin brushing or dry brushing.
Optional homework – read up on it. If you’re interested, I can tell you were to get some inexpensive skin brushes and what type of regimen I plan on doing for the next 30 days. =]

LISTEN UP….THIS MEANS YOU
So….what are you doing to better your health? And how are you investing in your health?
FACT: If you are doing a diet or taking diet pills (there are so many), and you aren’t exercising…..you failed.
FACT: If you aren’t giving your all during your workouts, I mean 110% of your effort…….you failed.
FACT: If you are starving yourself because it’s working pretty well to get some pounds off….you failed.
And because you are my family/friends/soror/frat/SiStar/associates/whatever……failure is not an option. Why? Because you know me. And I know you. And I don’t do failure, so neither do you. It’s that simple.
HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
I don’t know who knows/doesn’t know this but I am a BeachBody coach. What does that mean? I will be with you during your weight loss journey to help you take control of your by providing direction, support, and accountability, so that you get results and stay consistent with your workout program.
Shakeology…you NEED it. You may not WANT it, but you NEED it. Don’t cut corners on this. I’m serious. How do you think I lost weight and lowered my cholesterol? Talk to me. Right now.

Interesting on the Skin Brushing thing, never heard of it before but it makes sense.

Love turbofire!! You look great! I had 12 lbs left to lose at the start and after 9 weeks I've lost 9 of them from TurboFire and eating right. I did not get shakeology however, you don't need it. I think that stuff is just a money maker for them. You can probably make it yourself at home. Nice work!0
-
Heck yea!! Fantastic results!!0
-
You did so great! I am just going to start week 11 next week :-) x0
-
well done very interesting...
keep going0 -
Go Blu!! You're working hard and it shows!! Keep on showing us the way ;-)0
-
To your commitment, enthusiasm and results so far, I say awesome!
To your blatant sales pitch for Beachbody which most people don't actually 'need' in order to succeed... I say fail.0 -
You look fantastic!! Your waist is shrinking! Thanks for sharing!0
-
You look awesome. My sister and I are going to start turbo fire tomorrow. Hopefully we see results!0

I first want to say great job. I will be doing Turbo Fire once I complete Body Revolution by Jillian. I am incorporating some of her EZ/ABS/HIIT on my cardio days though.
I am interested about the skin brushing and even the shakeology. I keep seeing it on some of my friends diaries? I will also send a friend request.
Thanks0
