Started a new Challenge today... 21 Day Fix... Its really an exciting new program ... different 30 min workout everyday.. great motivation from the creator Autumn Calabrese... and boy .. if I could look like her.. someday here with consistency.. I'm ready to do the work..  

I've spent alot of time rationalizing .. and not being really dedicated to my fitness goals.. and I'm ready to make this work.. I know with this eating plan, portion control..

and great support from my BeachBody friends.. I am totally on my way.. Strange as it may seem .. although I am breaking myself of some "bad" snacks.. I didnt finish all the foods.. and I do have to make sure I'm well hydrated.. as I didnt completely finish all my water either..  I did have two

Shakeology shakes tho..  I'm totally in love with the Greenberry flavor.. and havent even tapped into the tons of recipes that we all share.. online.. and throughout our BeachBody family.. The workout today.. was pretty intense.. to say the least.. Cardio Fix.. I was so glad to have my new best friend "Kat"there for certain modifications.. although I know it wont be long.. before I'll be totally keeping up with Autumn,

no problem... but I could have sworn .. I heard an ambulance.. right around the corner.. Lol!!  Just wanted to express my thankfulness and gratitude for finding BeachBody.. and my awesome coach Kristi.. and of course all my new great friends I've found through finding this great company.  You can really make this .. your own business.. and work it as much or as little.. as you like.. I decided to give BeachBody my all as I really needed to get back into shape.. and really love and care about others.. I truly enjoy helping them with their fitness, nutrition.. and overall health.  I've learned so much about myself.. goals and know in my heart that this is the place I need to be.. with BeachBody there are no limitations.. only growth and endless potential.. 

So if you ever thought about making a difference in truly a special way like I have.. I'm right here.. 

Aloha & A Hui Hou.. 

Wow .. another year gone by... time seems to be going quicker as I get older... some days I feel like 35 again... and others I feel more like 95.. 

I know its been awhile.. since I posted last.. about "consistency" .. I know I still need to work on this... and this New Year.. 2014 is all of our new CLEAN SLATE.. !!!   I am happy to report .. I am still a BeachBody Coach and still learning everyday... good and bads ... about myself ... fitness and the business.. 

 BeachBody is awesome!!! 

No two ways about it!!!  No matter where, how or why or how little I involve myself... with BeachBody.. I AM STILL LEARNING!!! EVERY SINGLE DAY.. !!!  It is truly a "Helping people transform their lives.." business!!!  It is totally worth engaging in the opportunity.. whether its just for yourself.. or to create a business.. truly helping others.!!! 

I am on my way to creating a new exciting fitness career ... committed to help and guide anyone out there that is willing to take on the challenge.  In this day and age.. there are sooo many wonderful opportunities for ANYONE AT ANY AGE.. to 

"DECIDE, COMMIT, SUCCEED.."

Its our job to take advantage of this great opportunity... and dont let anyone .. tell you, you can't achieve success!!! 

"Is there a reason........ ?"

Does there seem to be a reason why you are where you are right now?  Do you often wonder what you could have done differently that you might or could be in a better place??  Well, I've asked myself these questions .. time and time again.. and what I always end up with is
"CONSISTENCY"..

Thats right folks .. as much as I hate to admit it .. "Consistency is the KEY".. whether we like it our not .. the "sticktoitiveness" .. the creating of a routine .. the remaining true to your plan.. and without consistency.. well kids.. its really just not gonna work.. no matter how ya slice it ..

 I wish there was a better, easier.. or just a plain more direct solution.. but you just cant make it any easier.. Its just black and white..CONSISTENCY.. so when you find yourself looking for the reason why maybe something might not be working.. just stick to your plan.. be diligent and BE CONSISTENT ..

A Hui Hou!!! 

There's a journey ahead......

Okay... so here goes.... I've decided to journal my way to fitness... or like in my title from "Fat..haha!!!  I am the "Healthy Haole" which if your wonderin... "haole" in Hawaiian means white person or caucasian as opposed to our local folks here in Hawaii..  and I plan on journaling my journey to fabulous fitness...

 Okay so things aren't really this BAD... but in my mind... looking at all the clothes I have that there is no way I can even put my leg in up to my knees... well let just say I can't continue on this way.... sooooo

As I continue my journey looking for interesting things to sink my teeth into that would recreate my health and fitness ..(seems like everything we do these days involve food or eating) I have prayed and searched for the best guidance for my fitness journey and developing a business where I can help others as well.. All my prayers seem to be answered .. "Diane, use whats in front of you!"  soo am recreating myself through the company I have had in my mind all along.. BeachBody...  and its been in right in front of me for quite sometime!... There are so many things to explore here..!!! Personally, I've really never had a problem with my weight... till about 7 years ago... and then I finally and really gave up.. :(  Its really frustrating getting older and seeing your body literally change before your eyes...) but I know I can do this and finally feel excited to try clothes on and not develop and immediate rash when I open my bathing suit drawer..

So back to BeachBody... we also have a great product called Shakeology .  Shakeology is a vitamin/protein drink that you drink each day as either a meal replacement or as a snack... but you should have it once a day.  There are four great flavors... Chocolate, Greenberry, Tropical Strawberry (vegan) and new Vanilla!! .. the weird thing is that I really like the Greenberry best!!.. and if you don't look at it like a HAVE TO kind of thing and let it become a part of your daily routine.. you'll be AMAZED at your results... !!


I also have indulged in their Yoga Booty Ballet, Tai Cheng and last but not least HipHop Abs.. Shaun T... well lets just say he makes the workout quick!!

I have always been involved with dance, martial arts, and yoga and really enjoy these workouts..!!! So much fun!!

My biggest obstacle has ALWAYS been self discipline.. I guess since I really never had to worry about "staying fit" .. all my normal activities kept me in great shape.. now I must get back into a really healthy way of life... and thats really the truth.  It really has to be a WAY OF LIFE... and a change in your lifestyle.  I think that this is the most difficult concept to grasp.  


I have a really great friend that ALWAYS encourages me... and gives me pep talks, positive texts with ways to add exercise to my daily life.  I am so grateful to her for her continued positive influence in my life... She is a true testimony to discipline and health... even after having twins... and looking like she just had a big meal when she was ready to deliver. !!  She never wavers .. and always stays on her path!!  I am secretly jealous... but so glad she and I have become great friends... I love you LT!!! You're the best..

So stay tuned ... for more insights and ideas on my journey to fitness and wellness... I'll be here to keep you posted... thanks for listening..


 Oh yea....


I invite you to click on my website listed above and check things out for yourself... believe me it really can't hurt!!! 

Aloha & A Hui Hou.... 

I thought for a very long time.... that I just had dreams and goals in my mind and thought about them alot .. but thats where it ended.. IN MY HEAD...  Like I mentioned before.. I researched and investigated for a very long time before I finally found my where I needed to be.  For the first time in a very long time .. I've finally believe that my life can have meaning and purpose and its COMPLETELY POSSIBLE!!!  I've only been active for less than a week.. but have already learned so many things about myself, met so many people that have also made great changes in their lives.. and helped others to do the same.  I'm excited for new and exciting things and I'm ready to help others find their purpose too!!

Aloha & A Hui Hou!! 

Ok soo ... it took me awhile... but I'm back... and I'm done with kidding myself and rationalizing... I've literally tried sooo many different things.. from diet pills, diet teas, potions, lotions, wraps .. you name it.. I've tried it.. Who am I kidding REALLY??  There's just no two ways about this ... I've rationalized, dramatized, criticized, and even tried hypnotizing!!  Its just so PLAIN AND SIMPLE.. and I've been making things soo complicated... I have no idea what I was trying to find, how to get my mind, body and soul back... other than the easy way out.. well friends... THERE IS NO SUCH THING... 

I JUST HAVE TO DO THE WORK... 
DECIDE, COMMIT, SUCCEED... 
So.. if you've been feeling in a rut, need encouragement, motivation, determination... come join me in my journey..  a journey that you wont regret.. 


Alo)(a... and A Hui Hou... 

Always somethin new!!!

There is ALWAYS somethin new...  Its really hard to keep up... 

Yes, I'm still walking... and still contemplating the marathon... I do really want to do it ... but I know it DEFINITELY will be quite an undertaking.. but NOT IMPOSSIBLE.... 

I've always liked dance... as early as elementary school.. loved ballet... so I've reverted to some exercises I used to do and some New York City Ballet work outs.. it seems to be a little better on my joints.. and also .. am awaiting my Fluidity Bar!!  It is definitely a great mix of exercise.. 

During this time of regrouping ... and getting back into "better" shape.. I've also found another great company ... that I have been doing some indepth research on .. as their products have AWESOME qualities, benefits healthfully and financially... looking to get started with this in the near future... soo... please keep in touch for further exciting details..  

Aloha & A Hui Hou!!!
