What's My Why?

What's my why? Why do share Advocare with everyone? Why won't I shut up about it? I have no idea what people's questions are, but I do have answers. So, if you don't know my story, here is the quick version. I was fat and I was tired- 230lbs and went through a tough journey on getting my body back. I am now on a new journey of helping people not only trim down or tone up but my husband and I are changing peoples finances. Why? Because Jeff and I were married 16 years in March. We looked deep into our lives and asked ourselves, "Did we accomplish our dreams so far and what are we going to accomplish in the next 2 to 5 years"?

 The answer was kinda... no we didn't, and we see ourselves in the same place in 2 years. We had a failed business venture in Seattle, we lost our house, I wrecked my car 2 years ago, couldn't afford another one, we are still renting a house, still not going on vacations, my house is still not decorated, still maxed out for time, still not going on dates, still not giving away money like we dreamed. We realized we were not accomplishing our dreams and goals we had when we first got married and we didn't see that changing anytime soon unless we did something different... 

  We knew it worked to get people physical results and we personally knew a couple from Seattle( Wayne and Sarah )that was making about 1000.00 a month when we got started 6 years ago. Just recently they made 78,000 in one month. They are my age. We knew that if they could do it, so could we. They just made a decision to help people, while we decided to keep struggling the old fashioned way.

 So in March... we decided to share with purpose. We decided to fulfill our calling. Since before Jeff and I were married, until the present time, about 10-15 different people (who did not know us) have prophesied that we would be making a 7 figure income, to be a major conduit of wealth into Gods Kingdom. Now that was exciting and intimidating before March 2011, because we were definitely NOT doing that yet. Now, we see it coming into fruition. We are not only able to create our own wealth but we are helping to create wealth with other families so they can give to God's Kingdom as well. HOW AMAZING IS GOD. This is our why.. we wanted to walk in our purpose, fulfill our destiny, stop telling our kids we would go on this trip and never do it, stop saying, "one day", stop saying, "no sorry, not this time", stop saying, "I can't afford it", stop saying,"I wish I could help that family out".

We realized, WHY NOT US? Why couldn't we change our circumstances? The only thing we did... was DECIDE! That's it... it was a decision to Dream, change, help people and use Advocare to do it.... then we began to GIVE. We gave time we didn't have, we gave love, and poured into people who didn't believe in themselves, helped other families do the same and GOD DID THE REST. He just needed a Vessel to be willing to decide to do something different. As we got our eyes off ourselves and helped others create income on the side, our income grew too. We went from making between 500-800 in March to almost 3,000 in the last 4 weeks with the same amount of time and effort. We don't all have the same why but, we all have a WHY... what's yours? Jeff and I have a vehicle to help you dream again...... It's not for everybody... but it could be for you.
  Its all about how you spend your time, that will determine where you will be in your future.

    WHERE WILL YOU BE IN 2 YEARS..What words will you be telling yourself or your children?

Wearing A Fat Suit...

         THE FAT SUIT

I found a picture of the beautiful Kate Walsh in a fat suit. She's never actually been a fat girl but "she played one on tv". I on the other hand was a fat girl in real life...

Last night I was looking through pictures trying to decide what I would write about for my Monday Healthy Living Blog. I said, "ok holy Spirit, lead me to what you want me to share". As I looked through these pictures of the early years of my marriage and the "having children years", I started to get pissed. I'm not play'n. I threw pictures down in front of my husband of me at age 23, and 25 totally fat and giving birth. My hair was stupid and my clothes were ridiculous. Half the time during my fat suit years I was wearing HIS CLOTHES! It was all I could fit in and it was all we could afford. I yelled at my husband ( as he sat at his computer paying no attention to my ranting) and said, "WHY!? WHY ME? Why did I have to experience this? Why couldn't I have just NOT had to go through that. It's not at all how I thought life would be for me"!!!! I had all these memories that flooded my head about how I felt and what I thought back then. I hated myself, hated the way I felt everyday. I hated the fact that I was so exhausted and cranky towards my children. Ya, some of it had to do with lack of character and immaturity. BUT a lot of it had to do with not knowing who I was. I would look in the mirror and catch myself off guard, "WHOTHEHECKISTHAT"?! oh....ya.....it's me. I always felt like I was wearing a fat suit. I didn't identify with this body. It felt so separate from me...but it was me?.......

I know some people will never relate because they have never struggled with weight, praise God you didn't. We all have our journey. This was mine. The Holy Spirit quickly reminded me that I have a purpose and a destiny to help people unzip those fat suits and step out of them. I sit here next to my husband again, typing this blog as a lump develops in my throat, my nose starts to tingle with snot, my eyes well up, tears streaming down my cheeks and Zavier (the baby) screams in my ear while I remember how God took my  situation and turned it around so that I can help others experience life through different eyes. I can help others get healthy so that they don't have to even go through the fat suit years. I thank God for the heart of compassion that he has given me. I think quite possibly I couldn't have the heart I have unless I overcame the fat suit.
 I always post my video journey because I have to share what the Lord has brought me through and because I know there are people that he has specifically called me to help. If you are a little or a lot overweight, under weight or you are just tired and need more energy...I have been CALLED by God to help change your life. I feel better than ever at age 37 than I did in this picture at age 25 and I'm destined to help others feel this way too!

Unfortunately I didn't have Advocare in my life from the beginning as you will see in my video. Now that I have for 6 years, this is what I take currently and what I start people on, along with a healthy eating plan to maximize results.

100% SATISFACTION

Love to go in the dressing room for 2 hrs while the employees bring me clothes to try on..

One of my fav places to buy shoes

Things that do Not have Satisfaction Guarantee..... just saying...

Marriage is not a match made in heaven. BUT...

By the Grace of God it can last til we go to heaven with much fulfillment in Christ and

with Agape LOVE

                      

Children- Such a Blessing... no satisfaction guarantee on how they will turn out when we are through trying to raise them with the time we have. There is a love that you have for your children that could never be put into words. I wonder sometimes..if we love our children like that, how must that feel for God? The depth of His love is amazing and we will never even scratch the surface in this life

hair cuts- they might say you get 100% satisfaction Guarantee,

but once they cut it off you have to wait for it to regrow it so they can CUT IT AGAIN??!

You have to be kidding me???

Healthy At Any Age

When I was growing up, I never had anyone teach me about health and nutrition. I never even thought about it really. I was a skinny little twig, and couldn't gain weight. As I went through my twenties I should have been able to experience my tiny, cute body, laying out by the pool and enjoying showing off all the cute clothes. Instead, I got married at age 21 and started gaining weight quickly. Then, as you have read in other blogs I continued to get fat with each pregnancy. I lost that cute figure so early in life. I lost myself because I didn't identify with myself anymore.

  Since having my life transformed ( watch my video at the top of the page if you haven't already) one of my greatest rewards for going through my journey is helping others in theirs. One of my best friends is only 23 years old. This is us watching a Suns Basketball game in a cool suite with chips the size of my HEAD!

             

Our sons are the best of buds.



Singing Some Worship together



   I remember when she got prego I was desperate to relive my first pregnancy through her. I wanted her to have that cute tiny figure with a cute basketball belly and skinny legs.... Is that even real? Does that happen? either way, I was going to try to help her whether she wanted it or not. I demanded that she eat right and stay healthy through out her pregnancy. She really wanted to, but as a lot of first time moms do, she gave into her cravings and certainly didn't exercise much. I remember seeing her with a box of fruit loops at Church one morning. I had crazy flashbacks of my self eating whatever I wanted and getting fatter and fatter! I grabbed the box from her and with every flashback at the forefront of my mind I demanded to know, " WHAT ARE YOU DOING EATING THIS"?!!! She sheepishly said, ( with her lip curled I might add)  "I don't know? My Mom said it might help with my morning sickness. I just don't want to be sick".  POOR POOR Ashton!! I know, I was awful for doing that to her. We laugh about it now. She forgives me and thanks me for loving her enough to say something to her! It's just that I was so worried. I didn't want her to have to go through the same horrible journey I once did. After all, my whole passion is helping others take the short cut so they don't have to go through those years of being exhausted and over weight.

  After she had the baby she finally hit the point where she was ready to make the changes and get back to being healthy and in shape. She asked me to help her. I got her started on a 24 Day Challenge and she never looked back!! NOW.... she looks better than she did in high school (those are her words not mine) and has so much energy to keep up with her 2yr old crazy kiddo. She is absolutely beautiful... always has been inside and out. I'm so thankful that I have the ability to share with everyone how to get your body back or to get the body you always wanted.

Check out her video journey...by the way...

Healthy at any age is so true.. My Mom is about to start a 24 Day Challenge I love what I do ....



My BFF Mindy's Story

Mindy and I met because our 1st born children were in Kindergarten together. We instantly clicked. You know that person you meet for the first time and it feels like you've known them forever? This was her. We started hanging out all the time. Our families would have dinner together often. My husband and her were hilarious together. They had this funny banter going back and forth all the time. As time went on it was crazy how much they had in common lol They even shared the same Birthday. We joked that they were twins separated at birth. Her husband and I really clicked as well. Turns out his birthday was on our Wedding Anniversary and our first sons birthday. Confused ? me too!

  We did everything together. Even if we shopped separately, we bought the same clothes. haha... crazy connection. I since have moved to another state but the thing is we still buy the same clothes! It only makes sense that we were fat together right? Going back 6 years ago, we were both 165lbs and ready to get fit before we took our spouses on a fantastic trip to Mexico! We worked super hard on eating right. I had already lost 90lbs before so I thought I could really show her how to do it. We dropped about 20lbs before going to Mexico. After we came back is when I got started on Advocare. I shared it with Mindy of course, but she wasn't so excited????????? What? We aren't doing it together? So I went it alone. She did her thing and I did Advocare. About 6mos later God opened the door for me to help her get started on a 24 Day Challenge. WOW.... She seriously looks amazing. She went from a 10/12 to a size 2.  Here is her video Journey. I'm so blessed to have been a part of helping her get her body and health back! Love you Mindy, so proud of you!!

My Video Journey From Fat To Fit......I did it so I could give you the short cut

I got a call yesterday from Alabama. I've never personally known anyone from Alabama? I met a woman named Regina. She and her friends wanted to find out about the 24 Day Challenge. So they started looking things up online. She came across my video and said that it was the very thing that inspired them to take the Challenge!!!. This is exactly why I made the video. I wanted to reach as many people as I could, to give them hope. To help people believe that if I could do it then so can you!
Check out my video and the 24 Day Challenge that's sweeping the Nation! On average people are losing10-15lbs. It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle of health and wellness. I have a wonderful customer right now that has lost 15lbs and12 inches in just 12 days!!...
I'm excited to walk with you through your journey.

Fruit is so pretty!

Fruit is so pretty! I got on this kick the other day, probably because I'm doing a Herbal Cleanse (it's part of the 24 Day Challenge), and it makes you CRAVE healthy things. So,I decided we needed to get a bunch of fruit and make fruit bowls. We went to Costco and Walmart and bought, grapes, honeydew, strawberries, mango, pineapple, apples, and oranges! see how pretty those words are with all the colors? haha That's how I feel when I see fruit. It's pretty and I wanna eat them!

Just a sample of some of the fruit I got!
I came home last night and made a couple bowls of it for our snack. I felt like I was having dessert. This morning my husband cut up oranges and mixed it with his vanilla protein shake. yyy U mmm!
My Mouth is watering!!
