Colleen G. Transformation

Ever start a workout program and on the first day you think to yourself "oh my what have I gotten myself into".  The workouts may be challenging, you may be out of breath, but what makes you keep going is the desire to be a better, healthier YOU!! You can do it, you can always do it, it is just a matter of the want and desire to DO just that - DO IT!!



I love Mom transformations!! so often I hear busy mom's tell me they don't have time, resources, etc. and this is another example of a mom who found a way to get it done. Always an inspiration to me!!


Coleen G. Colleen started with Insanity, added Shakeology to her routine, and is now getting it done with Focus T25!


Here is Colleen G.'s story... 
"When I went to deliver my baby, I weighed a whopping 209 pounds. I tried to imagine that my daughter would be born at least weighing 30 pounds. But I was wrong. I had gained 66 pounds. I wasn’t happy. Especially when everybody around me seemed like they didn’t gain a pound during pregnancy. I was so envious.

Breastfeeding took off some of the weight. But not enough. I was tired of wearing big, baggy tunics every day. I never felt cute or pretty. Even worse, I just didn’t have the energy to care for my baby. I was a mess. I needed help. It was time for Shaun T and his incredible INSANITY program. I was determined to be a mom who could get down on the floor and play with her children, not one who could barely move.

During the first day of INSANITY, I wanted to cry. I could barely make it through the workout. I even told my husband I was quitting. But my desire to lose weight was stronger than my desire to quit. So the next day, I put the DVD in. Then I did it again, the following day, and the day after that, and the day after that until the days began to add up. I got stronger and stronger and was able to do more and more. The weight just melted off.

By day 30, people said they didn’t recognize me. One of my neighbors said, ‘you’re like, literally half the person you were!” I was more committed than ever. I was losing pounds, dress sizes, and inches—and gaining energy, confidence, and a joyful heart.

I lost all my pregnancy weight—and I’m still going. I am stronger than I ever have been in my life, thanks to INSANITY, T-25 and Shakeology. I feel so empowered by my results from the Beachbody programs I’ve been doing that I have become a Beachbody Coach. I absolutely love helping others. My goal is to set up a Baby Registry so Moms can register for Beachbody products—and get the kind of results that I got. That’s just so important. Being overweight and out of shape after a pregnancy can lead to, or worsen, post-partum depression.

I never thought I could do something like this. But I did. And it has empowered me to want to live a healthier life—to keep going in my weight loss and strength training and Shakeology!

I’ll never go back."

Now is the time to learn how to live a 
FIT, HAPPY, and HEALTHY Life 
and we will do it 
TOGETHER!!!!

INSANITY and Shakeology Transformation Story

Need Inspiration - check this out...AMAZING STORY, AMAZING WOMAN!! 

Meet Ashley who shed the weight of one whole person with the help of INSANITY and Shakeology.


This is Ashley's story as it was shared on Teambeachbody.com...

"The “old me” weighed 284 pounds, was always tired, really depressed, and thought it was my destiny to be fat, teased, and discriminated against for the rest of my life. For a long time I just accepted who I was and didn’t think I had the ability to change. It wasn’t until I was donating blood and found out that my blood pressure was in the prehypertension range that it hit me: Pretty soon I’d be very sick and it would be 100% MY FAULT! It finally clicked that food and physical activity were directly related to whether I’d live a long healthy life—or a short sick one. And for the first time, I realized that I could actually be in control of my weight—it was not pre-written in my cards to be fat. If I wanted to change my future, I needed to change my present! So I did.

I’ve always had a huge fear of exercising publicly. I’d been laughed at and made fun of so many times for trying to jog or play sports that I was terrified to do it as an adult. So I did INSANITY in my living room where no one could watch me. Because I weighed close to 300 pounds I really had to modify the program a lot, but the fact that I could kind of do what Shaun T. was doing was so incredibly empowering.

One thing I loved about INSANITY was that Shaun T. would tell me that MY goal was to do as many reps as I could, not "Do 50 jumping jacks!" And that really made me feel like I could go at my own pace. I never felt like I didn’t do enough as long as I was pushing myself during every workout. That also made it so no matter how many times I’d do the workouts (it’s been a year now and I’ve done them a trillion times) they never got easier.

In addition to doing INSANITY, I also started drinking Shakeology, which totally improved my life. I’ve always been SO TIRED and Shakeology gives me so much energy to get through my day and my workouts. Plus, Shakeology really helps me stay on track when I go out of town. Any time a healthy meal is NOT available, “I shake!”

One night after working out I got the courage to jog. It was dark out, no one would see me, and I did it. Now I run on the beach, in a sports bra, in the middle of the day, and I don’t care if anyone makes comments or doesn’t like my body. My confidence is so high that I can overlook weird glances and stares because I know how far I’ve come and that I deserve a high-5, not a dirty look.

“The new me” has lost 121 lbs. and 5 feet of flab off my body. My entire life is different—not because I’m skinny, but because I feel so empowered. Finally, I feel in control. I feel like a whole new person. I feel like I can do anything. Not only am I proud of the body I built, I’m MOST proud of all the people I’ve inspired. I’m now a Coach and have motivated more than 1,000 lbs. off of friends and family. I’m relishing in all my ex-fat girl glory!"
