My success story is just one of many!!! I started my fitness and nutrition journey with The 21 Day Fix and Shakeology.
I have to admit I wasn't the greatest about taking my "before" and "after" pictures. So when I began this blog I searched for several that I had taken and came across only a few. I wish I could remember when I took these pictures...but I can say that I was happy with my results! As I go forward with my workouts, and different programs I will be more diligent in taking them so I can share more "before" and "after" pics with you.

Olivia lost 21 lbs. with the 21 Day Fix, Shakeology & the Beachbody Performance Supplements.
"Before starting the program, I was about five months postpartum with my daughter. I was depressed, scared, and had no vision of where my life was going. I was drowning and couldn't find my way out. Then I started the 21 Day Fix and using the portion-control containers. That's when things really just started to fall into all the right places. I started losing weight, my mood drastically improved. I had more energy, and I actually wanted to spend time with my baby. I was a much better person as a whole."

Heather, mom of three, won $500 and got in the best shape of her life with the 21 Day Fix & 21 Day Fix Extreme.
"I went from a size 18 to an 8! I haven't worn a size 8 in over 10 years. After three kids, two of which are twins, I didn't think I'd ever be this size again!"

Duane, a professional Firefighter, lost 47 lbs. on the 21 Day Fix & Beachbody Performance Supplements.
"The greatest challenge I face is really my career and the physical demands that are required to be a firefighter. Carrying heavy loads, climbing ladders, and advancing firehose into a burning structure are all tasks I could be called on to do at any time. I would eat whatever I wanted, thinking there wouldn't be any consequences to my health or fitness. The container idea was such a breakthrough for me. The simple way it's used to help you eat the right foods and the correct amounts made all the difference. I am a very competitive person, and I needed a challenging workout routine. Autumn's program is amazing, and I was blown away by how hard it was to do these 60-second exercises. So the 21 Day Fix and Shakeology have transformed my life. I will never go back to the way I was. I have been forever changed because of this program. Simple eating and a 30-minute workout have been a game-changer."

Amanda lost 105 lbs. with the 21 Day Fix & Shakeology & won $500! She describes the results she achieved below.
"I'm so proud of myself for sticking with a program that turned into a lifestyle. I've been overweight my whole life, and nothing has ever worked for me. I put in the hard work of changing my lifestyle, and my whole body completely transformed. I dropped a ton of weight and clothing sizes, and I have never felt better in my entire life. I didn't weigh myself during this process and still haven't. For me, the number on the scale means nothing compared to how I feel and how those non-scale victories feel. I didn't want to discourage myself or become obsessive by focusing on my weight. I know that in May of last year I was a size 22, and now I am a size 8/10. I also know that I've never felt better in my entire life."

Emilie lost 11 lbs. in 60 days with PiYo & won $500! Below she shares what inspired her to change her life and what her greatest challenge she faced before beginning the program. I identify a lot with Emilie's story!
"When I turned 30, I made a promise to not only my husband and kids, but most importantly to myself. I was going to be a healthy and happy mommy, wife, and friend. Putting my kiddos first is my biggest weakness. Yes, that's what we as moms are supposed to do, but how can I take care of them, when I do not take care of myself? Now I feel amazing about myself. It's not just the visible physical changes, which are awesome, but the emotional ones that make me feel so great! I have energy to keep up with my kids, I feel comfortable with who I am, and I have the motivation to keep going.
My biggest challenge was actually sticking to a lifestyle change! I would try but fail. I didn't have the encouragement, support, and motivation that I was given through Beachbody. I am thankful that this fell into my life at the right time, and that I was able to become a better version of me!"

Rebecka lost 20 lbs. in 10 weeks with Focus T25 & won $500! She shares about her life before she started the program and describes her results.
"Before I started FOCUS T25, I would feel unmotivated to work out. I would also struggle to find the time! I hated the way I felt and hated what I saw in the mirror! I wanted more energy for my two kids, and I wanted to feel confident. I wanted to be thriving instead of just getting through each day.
I liked the high intensity and faster pace. I liked that you didn't need equipment throughout most of it. I lost 20 pounds. But what I'm most proud of is that this is the first time I started a program and finished! I just started another round because I fell so in love. I'm proud of not giving up and pushing myself out of my comfort zone."
________
Isaac lost 44 lbs. in 90 days with P90 and also won $500! How did Isaac feel before he started...what he liked about the program...and how his life has changed since completing it.
"I have always been athletic and competitive. The past year I'd been overweight but the holidays just made it very hard to keep discipline and get any exercise. The result was feeling very lethargic and depressed because I was even having trouble tying my shoes and groaning sitting down and getting up off the couch!
I thought P90 was perfect for me since I couldn't just run (like I used to) since I had so much weight I was afraid I would hurt myself. The balance of weights and cardio, along with the scaled difficulty (A, B, C) was perfect, and allowed me to customize to even challenge myself more.
I still love running, playing ultimate frisbee and other things. Just the performance boost from the all-around workouts feels so good! The lethargy is gone: I often wake up refreshed before my alarm goes off, ready for my workout. Thanks to the Beachbody videos, I'm expanding my fitness goals for my next challenge! Run faster! Jump higher! Run a 10K in less than 45 minutes! To me the possibilities are endless. Can't wait to start my next 90 day challenge."

Emily lost 21.7 lbs. with TurboFire. Her is what she says about how she felt before and after the program.
Before, "I just felt tired a lot - and insecure. I would shy away from being in pictures, even with family. Or I would shy away from any kind of activity that was too physical because I didn't want to embarrass myself and show how out of shape I was truly in. My husband is a strong runner...he loves to run marathons and rock climbs on a regular basis, both of which I never felt like I could join him in. Last year I ran my first 5k and went to the rock climbing gym with him for the first time. Being fit and creating an emphasis in my own life has strengthened our marriage and our family. Our kids are even learning to make healthier choices on their own. And I LOVE that - it's so rewarding to see!
I have energy for life these days that I don't remember having before starting the program!"

Kimberly was concerned about her mid-section and was ready to make a change...and she did with the 21 Day Fix & Shakeology!
"At the time I started the program, I was at my lowest point. I was put on daily medication for hypertension and migraines, and was stuffing myself into my 'fat clothes'. I was even holding my work pants together with rubber bands as I had done when I was pregnant and refused to spend the money on maternity clothes until I had to. Thinking back, I avoided mirrors that showed my lower half of my body, and felt pretty disappointed that I had let myself go that far. It was do-or-die for me.
The 21 Day Fix was short enough that I could fit in my busy day, but effective enough to see results. My children also participated in many of the workouts with me. The food guide and containers were simple to use and have helped me make better decisions all around, instead of depending on one specific product for results. It's sustainable and a true lifestyle change."

YOU CAN DANCE TOO!!!!!
Jenny lost 44 lbs. in a year with CIZE & Shakeology...and had fun doing it! And won $500!!!!
"I thought I was happy. I thought I had control of my life. Not until I started this journey did I realize how unhappy I was. I felt sluggish and let things happen to me. I've always been the healthy and fit one in the family until life got a little crazy - and I mean crazy! The extra pounds found me. Months and even years of not living the life I had imagined kept me from being me physically. I had never reached the numbers on the scale I was seeing. Fast forward to today. Never in my life have I been happier, healthier all around (mentally, emotionally, spiritually, you name it), and more ready to face and do anything!
I loved CIZE! Shaun T was a damn fireball! Every workout always made my day better, because I was not only getting a load off, but Shaun kept me entertained and sassy!"
________
Miranda got her dance on with Country Heat and lost 19 lbs. in 30 days...and won $500 too!!
"Before I started Country Heat, I was almost 200 pounds. I was miserable, winded after climbing stairs, and my confidence was very low. I went to the doctor before starting Country Heat and was told I had high cholesterol. I'm only 25, so this was huge for me. I knew I needed to do something, and I couldn't keep putting my health after everything else. I couldn't take it any longer to have such low energy, and I also needed to take control of my relationship with food."
Miranda thought she would not get results from this program but she surprised herself and has become her favorite program. "I thought I needed to deprive myself of food and do a high-intensity cardio workout to lose weight. I was so wrong. I loved everything about it, from the music to the meal plan! I loved that I didn't even feel like I was working out. I looked forward to my workout every single day. Finding a program that you love is key to finding results. I've started so many programs before and could never finish. This is my soulmate program!"

Patrick lost 12 lbs. in 42 days with the 21 Day Fix. He too won $500!
"Before beginning the 21 Day Fix, my life consisted of travel. I traveled for work approximately 3 weeks out of the month, therefore I lived at restaurants. Since January of 2015, I took a new employment which kept me at home and close to family where I needed to be. I chose to do this because of the positive feedback that I was getting and seeing from friends around me who had gone through the program. So I embarked on the challenge and loved it. Actually I loved it so much that I did the program twice and now I'm on my next fitness journey with Body Beast.
Patrick loved the program because "How easy Autumn made things. From nutrition to the motivating exercises she put together. I loved how it was very much a "turn key" type of program. It left the guessing and excuses that could have been made to drop the program and made it into a success, as long as you were willing. My life has changed only for the positive! Clear headedness, energy, sleep, and confidence. I am able to feel my age and not feel like I should be ready to retire. Life is precious and I'm happy that I made the choice to give myself another chance."
