A special Thank you to my Customers

beachbody referral program, referral thank you, loyal customers, sharing health, healthy lifestyle, live well

The time has come and I cannot wait to announce a special way I would like to thank my customers who have been so willing to refer their friends, family members, colleagues, and others to me.

All of these people understand the importance of living a healthy lifestyle. These individuals have taken it one step further and have helped others learn that living a healthy lifestyle is possible and is not a huge expense (like so many believe it is). We all need helping hands in our lives and I am thankful for my customers who have been so kind to share my name with others. Best of all together we are helping others achieve their health and fitness goals and that is what matters most!!

I have a year long referral program currently but for the last week of February I am upping the ante and offering an additional thank you to any of my customers who refer someone to join me. That person would need to become a customer of mine with a Challenge Pack purchase. For each referral with Challenge Pack that comes my way starting Today, February 24th through 9pm EST Friday, February 28th the referring person will first receive a free gift from me plus an entry into a drawing for a free month supply of Shakeology. This drawing will be held on Saturday, March 1st. (all 2014 of course!)

A few questions answered:

Why am I doing this special thank you?
February is a very special month for me first because it is my birthday month but second because it is when I got started in my own health and fitness journey. I remember how scared I was, I remember how skeptical I was of drinking Shakeology, I remember how I wasn't sure if I could afford my Chalean Extreme challenge pack but in the end I did it because I knew I had to. My health would not magically get better if I didn't start eating healthier and exercising. I needed a change and this was it!! I had tried exercising and eating healthy on my own before Beachbody and yes I had some success but I wanted to get to my goal like most of us RIGHT AT THAT MOMENT!! The other programs I had done did not get me to where I wanted to be. My beachbody fitness programs, shakeology, and adopting clean eating have helped me reach better than my goal and stay here for over a year now. I want to share this with others and let them know sometimes you have to take that leap of faith and just do it!!

Why a Challenge Pack purchase?
I believe very strongly in Challenge packs and that is because these packs are a combination of both fitness and nutrition. These two components are critical to success in leading a healthy lifestyle. The challenge pack includes a complete workout program, 30 day supply of Shakeology, 30 day Club membership, free shipping, and ME as your coach!! Another benefit of the challenge pack is you get significant savings compared to purchasing the products separately. For all you that know me, you know I love to save money where I can. That is why I feel the challenge pack offers are the best deals if you are serious about getting started on your journey to living a healthy lifestyle.

What does one have to do to take advantage of this special referral offer?
First you need to be a customer of mine, so if you are not already please CREATE A FREE MEMBERSHIP.

Second the person you are referring needs to contact me at alysonhorcher@gmail.com and advise me of who referred them.
We will discuss health and fitness goals and determine the best challenge pack to fit their needs and wants.

Once your referral purchases their challenge pack I will contact you to redeem your free gift and I will then enter your name into the month Supply of Shakeology drawing.

Any questions, please ask!!

Not everyone knows how to get started, Not everyone can do it on their own. We are here to help not only ourselves but others!!

Refer a friend and you both can enjoy Health Together!!

Now is the time to learn how to

Live a Fit, Happy, and Healthy life

and WE will do it

TOGETHER!!!!

30 Day Shakeology and Healthy Eating Group

Lately people have been asking my advice on how I did it - How did I lose the weight I wanted? and how have I kept it off? Well you all know I love working out but that is only part of the equation, the other part comes from what I eat and drink. and YES I LOVE FOOD and I LOVE TO EAT!!

Nutrition is 80% of the equation so I strongly feel cleaning up my diet is what has helped me the most at keeping off the weight! When I have been lax about what I eat and drink I notice a difference in how my body looks and feels.

You also know I love helping others get healthy and fit and I believe in the power of support and accountability because that too was instrumental for me getting on track with my own health and fitness. For this reason I have decided to put together a group to help those who are interested in learning how to eat healthier and how it can help you reach your weight loss goals.

Let me introduce you to my

30 Day Shakeology and Healthy Eating Group

For the 30 days in the group, I am going to teach you the basics of clean eating, what to eat, when to eat, and how much to eat. We will incorporate Shakeology as 1 meal each day (whatever meal you choose). Exercise is optional, but is encouraged. The only requirements are that I am your official Beachbody Coach and that you commit to completing the 30 days with Shakeology.

The group will be setup as a closed facebook group because your privacy is important to me and I want you to have a safe environment to talk freely without the rest of the world knowing!!
My goal for the group is for it to be a supportive and motivating environment where you can share your struggles with food, managing your time, losing weight, and any other struggles you may have. No matter what, I want you to know and feel that

YOU are not alone in your journey! We all have our own reasons for wanting to do what we do and I will be there supporting you every step of the way!!

Who should do this challenge group?

Anyone who is interested in trying Shakeology but is afraid they won't like it or doesn't want to invest the money because of the cost. It is also a great opportunity for someone who has a busy lifestyle but wants to learn to eat healthy and have energy naturally to get through the day. This group would benefit someone who has a significant amount of weight to lose or someone who only has a few pounds to lose. This group is about living a healthy lifestyle and changing your outlook on life.

This group is also for those that have no idea with were to start in regards to proper nutrition and feeding their bodies to fuel their metabolism.

What will we will discuss:

Meal Planning

Meal Preparation

Healthy Recipes

Snack Ideas

Benefits of Shakeology

Dealing with temptation

Traveling and eating healthy

Working full time and eating healthy

and more...

What do I need to do to join this group?

All you need to do to join the 30 day Shakeology and Healthy Eating Group is to invest in YOUR HEALTH and you start that by investing in Shakeology for 30 days. Yes, that means if you don't already have it, you must get it! I can tell you how! You only have to commit for 30 days and if at the end of the month you saw zero results or did not like it, then I will personally help you return your Shakeology for a full refund! 30 Day Money BACK GUARANTEE! By you investing in your health and replacing 1 meal a day with Shakeology I will help you transform the other meals of your day to give you the maximum benefits to get you losing weight, increasing your energy, controlling your cravings and feeling alive and energized. Shakeology is not just another protein shake. It is a SHAKE in a class all of it's own - it's a NUTRITION SHAKE!! No other shake on the market is like it!!

Shakeology has over 70+ natural ingredients with the right combination of carbs to protein to keep you full, satisfied and energized. It also comes in multiple flavors: Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla and Greenberry, plus Vegan Chocolate and Vegan Tropical Strawberry!!

Sound like something you want to do?

If you want in this is your opportunity!! Don't let another day go by without thinking of YOU and why your HEALTH should matter and be a top priority!! This is your time to finally make a lifestyle change that your ENTIRE family can stick to! No more cooking separate meals for your family, no more figuring it out on your own. We are in this together and as your coach I will not leave you behind! I will be keeping my participant list in this group small so that YOU can have my individual attention.

Reserve your spot today in my 30 Day Shakeology and Healthy Eating grou and I will be happy to get your started!! From there we will begin 30 fabulous days together!! The group beings February 24th so don't delay!!

21 Day Fix Meal Planning and More

If you have been following my blog you know I like to plan out my week on Sundays!! So today is none other than Sunday and so that means time to get myself on track for the week ahead.

What's on the Agenda this week?

happy birthday to me, healthy, lifestyle, happy, fit

My BIRTHDAY!! I will be 37 years old tomorrow the 17th. My goodness where has time gone! I normally do not look forward to my birthday because it means I am another year older but this year I am looking at my birthday in a whole new light. It is another day to thank God for giving me this wonderful life. So much has happened in this past year I seriously cannot believe it. A lot didn't happen either and so this year is another year I am thankful to be given another chance to to get it done the right way this time.

inspiration, motivation, goal setting, be your best

So another Sunday, another year older but I am definitely feeling the wiser part this time!! I have learned so much this past year about myself and am truly grateful that I have given my health a spot on my priority list! Some might think that sounds crazy but for so long I didn't treat my health as a priority. I wasn't taking care of myself and that then lead to me not taking the best care of my loved ones who count on me.

healthy, lifestyle, take care of yourself, one body, one mind, healthy is wealth

I know I know I am suppose to be sharing my 21 Day Fix meal plan but I think it is important to understand where I am coming from and why I choose to do the 21 day Fix program. I am at my goal weight, I am happy with the shape of my body, I feel great, I have a ton of energy, I am at home with my kids yet working a business that provides adequate income, but I am always looking for ways to challenge myself and ways to expand my knowledge. This is where the 21 Day Fix comes in...
Yes I workout, Yes I eat healthy but there are always way to improve. What attracted me to the FIX is the color coded portion control containers. Did you know you could eat too much healthy food too? Well this past week I have learned that I was over eating in many of the food groups. Lesson learned thanks to the handy dandy Fix containers -

21 day fix, 21 day fix meal planning, 21 day fix containers, shakeology

Yep those are the containers I use to portion out each of my meals.
What I also do is create a meal plan that incorporate a set number of these containers throughout the day 3 Green, 2 Purple, 4 Red, 2 Yellow, 1 Blue, 1 Orange, and 2 teaspoons.

Here's my plan for the week - (click on it to enlarge it)

21 day fix, 21 day fix meal planning, 21 day fix containers, shakeology, meal planning, clean eating

I then create my grocery list around what I don't have on my plan, go shopping and start prepping what I can to make life easier throughout the week!!

Simple enough and it makes the world of difference between staying on track or not!! So there you have it, my meal plan completed and I am all set for another fabulous week!! Have a great Sunday!!

inspiration, motivation, success, determination, top 10, leader
