Ever thought about trying beachbody?

As some of you may know I am now a beachbody coach. I decided to do this for fun and for something different. I am loving the Shakeology. I feel like I have more energy and all I am doing is replacing one meal a day with it or replacing a snack in my case. I eat 6-7 x a day so it is a little different for me. I am also, not trying to lose weight. I am trying to maintain at the moment but I am sure after the holidays that will be another story.

As a coach  I am getting some great deals on some awesome dvd's like P90X. After years of competing and doing the same type workouts I was in need for a change. I was headed for burnout. Things are going great though and if you would like a free sample just shoot me an email and I will hook you up. The samples come in chocolate or greenberry. I have sent out tons of samples so far. Check out my site at  Beachbodycoach.com/sundiefit and  Shakeology.com/sundiefit.

If you have ever thought about becoming a coach now is the time. They are waiving the $40 fee! I think it is good for just a couple more weeks though. I am making money and really not doing much other than sending out some samples. The stuff sells itself it is so good. The dvd's are the same dvd exercise programs that everyone is using. The shakeolgy is a bonus to help out with weightloss.

I was planning on running some more 5k's before the end of the year but have decided to focus on building some muscle. My diet has been clean and healthy but my calories are too high. I am enjoying the good healthy food a little too much and I do not want to have to kill myself doing cardio so I really need to clean it up a bit. I am working on it.

Grad school rocks! I am loving it and on a mission to finish asap. I will post about that whole decision at another time. I am just trying to play fast catch up on my blogging.

Running 5k's and not even a runner

I just ran my 3rd 5k yesterday since August. I have another one in 2 weeks. What is my deal? I guess because they are all good causes and I could use the extra cardio. I do have to admit, I am burning the candle at both ends. I am not getting enough sleep. Work is great at my new school but between that and graduate school and my weekends being completely consumed with helping my dad, visiting my grandma and helping my mom, there is not a lot of time left for me. I only see Dave 2x a week as it is so I really need for things to slow down just a bit.

I just signed up under Danielle (Fitnessfreak) from tracker, as a Beachbody coach. I am not one to just fall for any ol' fad gimmick but I really think that the Shakeology program is almost exactly like BFL. I also know that all the programs they sell, sell themselves! They are the same ones that everyone is already using. I am really excited about doing this and think I can help a lot of other people but finding the time to devote as much time as I would like, is going to be tough. So, with that said, here are my websites, check them out! Let me know if you are interested in anything.

I am going to use the Shakeology to maintain my current weight. I am exactly where I want to be for the off-season.

Oh and on another note, if you happen to get the magazine, Fitness Physique a Natural Bodybuilding magazine, there is a little write up about me at my June show and a picture. It is on page 58. I was pretty stoked when it came in the mail.

"Busy" is an understatement!

Well, now that school is in full swing I am busier than ever. I love my new school and the guy I work with. It feels good to "like" my job. Graduate school is well under way too. It is a lot of work, probably more than I really expected but hey, I am on a mission to finish and I will get it down. The goal is to get finished before 50. Surely I can do it in 3 years! I am planning on 1.5 but you know how that can go.

On the fitness front, I am totally bored with my workouts. I have pulled out some old ones but it really did not help much. I am eating clean and eating 2 cheat meals a week and they are moderate. I can tell my flexibility has suffered more than anything since I started competing. I am adding more yoga into my routine and hopefully that will help. My problem is, fitting it all in. I already get up at 4:30 and by the time I do my cardio and my workout, cook and eat my breakfast and then get ready, it seems I am rushing to get to work! That would explain the $161 speeding ticket I got last week. DOH!

I know not many read my blog anymore since I have been mia for so long and I never get to read other blogs. I am anxious to get back at it but cannot seem to find the time. I have been saying this since May but eventually I will be able to find a little time when things slow down. As much as I hate the cold winter months things do tend to slow down a bit so I am actually a little excited about that.

Finally, I think I have my blog back!

This has been a nightmare since June! Apparently people can take your entire blog and make it their own which, is what happened to mine. I have missed blogging and wanted to blog over the summer but unfortunately I had no access to it. Thank you Matt for your help with this mess. I would never have been able to get it all fixed without you.

Since my last blog I have started at a new school, same district but different school and I love it. After my June comp I have been on track with my eating and am right at the 10 lb mark on weight gain. Trust me though, I needed to gain 10 lbs. I was way under weight for me. My face looked old and I looked like I needed to eat. I hated the way my face looked but 10 lbs is perfect.

I have been training for my usual 5k's that I do this time of year. I just finished one on Saturday and although my legs felt like tree trunks I managed to finish in 28 min. I have another one this Saturday if these darn shin splints will go away. I have never had them and have no idea why I have them now but they better be gone. I am running the RFC in October and am thinking about a 10 mile race coming up but not sure on that one. I am still hitting the weights hard though to keep my muscle. I do not want to lose any muscle with all this running. I have upped my calories so things are good.

I am now in graduate school and it pretty much takes up most of my time so not sure how much blogging I will get done. Too bad summer came and went. I had an awesome garden and learned how to can this summer. I spent most of my summer gardening and cooking. I love to cook more than anything and wish I could do it for a living.

What in the world?

I have been trying to access my blog for weeks now. If you will notice there are some older post that I have not been able to post until now. I have been about to go nuts trying to figure out what in the world happened. I finally discovered that somehow my domain name had changed. I did not do it and have no idea how it got changed. I have spent hours trying to figure out why I cannot post. Anyway, I can post now but I am still working on my blog decor so be patient.

I love summer!

Everyday I just keep telling myself how much I love summer! It is so relaxing and I can do whatever I want for 8 weeks. I try not to think about school until at least the end of July and then I start thinking about things I would like to do and looking for new things for my kiddos to do and I am super excited to start at a new school this year. I can already tell my stress level as dissipated.

Vacation was fabulous! I love New Orleans and want to go back and spend some more time there. I love the diversity of that city. The people are some of the nicest people I have ever met in my life.

Mexico was absolutely wonderful! I did lots of shopping and spent lots of time on the beach. We spent the day on a private beach with about 20 others and you just sit by the ocean and soak up the sun as they bring you drinks and the most wonderful food ever! I will have to say I could only handle two margaritas and then I thought I would die! I am such a lightweight. I could not handle them at all. It has been too long since I had a drink, over a year!

I was glad to be back home and get everything unpacked and back to normal. I am trying to enjoy the rest of my summer which btw is flying by. I thought I would post a few pics from vacation.

Rest and Relaxation

Well it is almost time. Mexico is calling my name. I can hardly wait to get there. I am ready for some down time because even though I am off work I can never sit still at home. I am constantly cleaning or working on something.

I had my first workout yesterday after taking a week off. I am actually a little sore today too. It felt good to get back in the gym though. When I get back from vacation I plan on taking some yoga classes. I am really wanting to make that a part of my routine.

I did get the job that I put in for last week. It is in the same school district but a different Elementary school. It is not where I wanted to be but it is better than where I was at so I am really excited to start fresh with a male principle. There are mostly women where I worked before and we all know women are their worst enemies and wherever women are there is always going to be drama.

I do have some more pics but have not had time to get them all uploaded and on the computer but I will after vacation. Thanks for all your emails and comments. I hope to catch up on my blog reading when I get back.
