Focus T25 is OUT!! Here is Some Info.....

Just ordered MINE (Focus T25 that is), and I'm ready to help those that want to join my Focus Challenge Group on August 15th.  Like I said in a previous blog post, I'm doing it a little later for those that would like to try Shakeology and find the perfect flavor/s for them.  Please let me know ASAP so I can get those free sample out to you!!  This is going to be a lot of fun, and perfect for those busy mom's, and people that just don't have enough time in the day to get more than 45 minutes of workout out in their day.  Who can't do 25 minutes, 5 days a week for 50 days????  It's a no brainer!!!

So here is the challenge pack breakdown.....this deal is AMAZING and that's why I'm pushing it, you'll love me for it.  I promise you that Shakeology is really ALL THAT.

Basically, the cost of just the program is $119, if you get it BEFORE July 7th, you'll get free shipping.  After July 7th shipping WILL NOT BE FREE UNLESS you get the challenge pack.

 Soooo the Challenge pack is $180 UNTIL the END OF JULY.  Once August hits, it'll be $205.  The Challenge pack COMES with SHAKEOLOGY and is a whopping $90 savings if you order BEFORE August!!!!  Shakeology usually cost about $120 a bag (unless you're a coach and then you get 25% off) but if you go the Challenge pack route, you'll only be spending $60 on the most amazing meal of the day (or snack if you prefer) so that's HALF OFF!!!!!  CRAZY, and the best part is, you can sign up to be a coach with a challenge pack and save 25% on the rest of your Shakeology orders plus anything else you buy from Beachbody, PLUS the $40 one time fee is waved!  What a deal!!!  And you certainly DO NOT have to sell anything if you don't want!  Some people just sign up to be a coach JUST for the discount.  Want more info on coaching?  Click THIS.

Here's a breakdown if you'd like to become a coach just for the Shakeology discount:

$33 off of Shakeology with your 25% discount + 12 shipping = $45 - $16 for the monthly fee = $29 off of Shakeology!!!

If you are Military or a Military spouse, your savings will look like this:
$33 off of Shakeology with your 25% discount + 12 shipping = $45 - $0 for monthly fee (waived) = $45 off of Shakeology!!!!

So, here's a little more info on the actual workout:

• Every workout in this program is 25 minutes.
• The schedule for the program is 5 days per week for Monday-Friday.
• You do a different workout each day of the week.
• The entire program is 10 weeks long with two phases which are each 5 weeks
• The Alpha Phase is the first phase which is 5 weeks. There is no equipment, no weights, and it’s a progressive workout where the focus is on getting the correct form. Shaun T described it as “Gym Class 101″. So, regardless of your current fitness level, you can do this!
• The Beta Phase is the second phase which is also 5 weeks. This is where you ramp it up a notch and use what you learned in the first phase to work hard. This phase is all about strengthening your core.
• There is an optional Gamma Phase that can be purchased separately as an add-on which is where he starts to incorporate weights.....and remember, if your a coach, you get 25% off ;-)
• This workout is awesome for both men and women. If the program is too intense, you can always follow the modifier named Tania who does a lower-impact version of all of the moves.

And here's what the Focus T25 Challenge Pack includes:

• 11 Workouts on 9 DVDs that are each exactly 25 minutes
• 10-Week Schedule for the Alpha and Beta Phases showing you which workout to do each day
• Red resistance bands which you’ll use in the Beta phase
• 5-day Quick-start Guide including a workout schedule and menu plan
• T25 ‘Get it Done’ Nutrition Guide with recipes and meal plans
• BONUS – If you order through a coach like me, you’ll also get the “Core Speed” bonus DVD.
• Info on how to get a FREE “T25 – Nailed It!” T-shirt from Beachbody.
• With the Challenge Pack, you’ll also get a 30-day supply of Shakeology in your choice of flavor: Chocolate, Vegan Chocolate, Vegan Tropical Strawberry, Greenberry or the NEW Vanilla flavor.
• And, you get ME as your coach to support you through the program.

Settled in....and Exciting Beachbody News!!

I'm really loving it here in California, and we are pretty much settled in.  We received the last of our boxes and my treadmill this last week and all of our rooms are finally done!  We have all of our pictures up downstairs, and now just have a few to put upstairs.  Things are moving right along, and I'm feeling really good about how things are moving in our life.  I can't believe our 12 year anniversary is coming up, and about a month after, Devin's 16th year in the Coast Guard will be here!  I seriously cannot believe he can retire in almost 4 year if he wants!!  We got outstanding news a few days ago that he was #1 on a test he recently took, but due to some points that were taken away from his last advancement, and his low time in service and time in his rank (he was going against people that still had all their points, and more than 20 years in service and 4+ years in their rank) he dropped to #4.......BUT that's good enough and he'll most likely be making the next rank in 2014!!!  The last few years they've made 12 or 13 so 4 is a pretty good number to sit at, but you never know what they'll do for the next year, so we are optimistic, but still a tiny bit cautious.  Once he makes the cut (the first one comes out around September, and then quarterly) we will PARTY!!  I have the perfect week-day get away planned.......week-day because it'll be less crowded and the hotel will be less expensive.......we will be heading to Disneyland!!!!!!!

Last week Devin brought me to the Korbel Californian Champagne house and it was beautiful, fun and only 35 minutes away!!!  We ate, walked around, and then had a tour........once the tour was done, our tour guide had a private tasting waiting for us on their deck, and it was simply a gorgeous day!!  I thought that Korbel only did the Champagne thing, but they had some wine, port, sherry and brandy as well.

Here are some pics of our day :-)

Of course, there is always Beachbody news, and the news I'm about to give you is AWESOME!!!!!  As I've told you in a past blog, they've changed the flavor of Greenberry Shakeology, and it's really, really good!!!  BUT Beachbody has outdone itself and finally found the right combination to make a healthy, all natural Vanilla Shakeology!!!!!  For years the CEO of Beachbody, Carl Daikeler would not release a Vanilla due to the un-natural flavoring they would have to add to make it taste more like the vanilla we are use to.  Anything that says natural vanilla flavoring, really isn't, it's enhanced by artificial vanilla.  Carl wasn't having any of that.......so for years Carl and the Shakeology crew kept trying, and they finally have it!!!!  Rumor has it it's AMAZING, and I have my sample packs on order and will have it available for individual order on July 12th, so you can "try it before you buy it".  If you just want your own supply, ORDER NOW until July 7th for your One-Time free shipping, or just do an HD order and get it monthly and always have free shipping........

In other Beachbody news..........the kick ass Shaun T of Insanity, Asylum I and II, Hip-Hop Abs and Rockin' Body has done it again!!!  He's coming out with Focus T25, 25 INTENSE minutes a day, 5 days a week, for 50 days.  Right now I'm doing Insanity, and YES it's insane, but honestly, if you go at your own pace, and give it all you've got, anyone can do it!!  I'll be on my 3rd week starting Monday, and I already see my body change, and my eating habits have been less than stellar.....I can only imagine how amazing my results would be if I had a better eating plan........Oh well........anyways, so YES, Focus T25 will be out THIS MONDAY the 24th, and do you know what that means??????  CHALLENGE GROUP!!!

This Challenge group will start on August 15th, I know, I know.  Some of you are asking WHY SO LATE???  Well, first I want to finish up Insanity, BUT most importantly, I want ANYONE who is seriously looking into doing this challenge group to try a few samples of Shakeology for FREEEEE before they buy their Focus T25 Challenge packs!!!  Yes, you read that right!!  If you are serious about joining my Focus T25 group e-mail me at Hunnieshadow@yahoo.com for more details, OR find me on my FB page From Skinnyfat to Fit  (don't forget to like my page).

Well, I guess that's it for now!!  Thanks for reading :-)

Petaluma Life So Far

Boy, it's been a crazy week!!  Movers came on the 28th and 29th of May to pack.  They came back on the 30th to haul it all away.  I'm a little worried on how our stuff will show up on the 7th.  They packed the truck rather sloppy, putting things on Devin's bike, and stuff on my treadmill, the grill next to our brand new box springs........ugggggg!!

My treadmill better be okay.....

 We left our house on May 31st for the first part of our trip.  Our cats did really well, Hunnie only got sick once and little Shadow is always a trooper!!  Hunnie seems to throw up the first 5 minutes of any trip, so I always throw a towel that we won't use in his carrier, and take it out and throw it away once he's done getting sick.  Our first day we drove 6.5 hours, it went by pretty fast.  We passed some forest fires in Grants Pass (about an hour from our hotel), the smoke was really thick, fire trucks and police where everywhere.  It was crazy!  Wish I got a picture, but we wanted to get the heck outta there!    

******Fast forward to today***** I typed the top half about 1.5 weeks ago and never finished!!!  Ugggg!  Anyways, we are pretty much settled into our new place, and to be honest?  It's a lot nicer than I thought.  For some reason, I've always been opposed to living in Military housing.  I've always heard so much iffy stuff, so far I am truly blown away with how awesome the housing is here, how helpful the housing people are, how nice the base is, the wild life is amazing, the views are gorgeous, and I get to hear our National Anthem at 8am, and Taps at sunset everyday!!!  We have a cute coffee shop (think Starbucks) bowling alley, bar, pizza joint, subway, a new movie theater that plays movies BEFORE they come out.  Also there's a sweet running trail/path and Devin get's to walk to work (actually, you can walk everywhere on this base!)...the list goes on and on!! One of the things I was worried about was privacy, even though we have town homes on either side of us, it still feels really private, we have a nice fenced in yard.

Grass has since been mowed and in the process of becoming greener

I've actually decorated, and been hanging pictures all over, something we haven't done since we lived in Mystic CT almost 11 years ago!  We just never got around to making our houses feel like a home.  So far, the house our home is almost done, along with the 50 trips to Home Depot, Bed Bath and Beyond and Michael's.  Now we're just waiting on about 16 more boxes and some big items, like the bottom of my treadmill :-(  NOT sure how the moving company managed to bring my top half, but not the bottom.........I'm a little ticked off, since we only had 5,500 pounds of stuff (we're aloud 11,000 before they start charging us).  We keep calling the moving company, and no one answers or calls us back!  We've left several messages!!!

On to the health aspect of my life, once we got to our new place, Devin and I ended up doing the 3 day Shakeology cleanse.  It was pretty tough this go around, because my husband always wants to eat, eat,
eat.  But we managed, and my sweet cravings have been reduced, and I feel so much better!!  I was also going to re-start P90X  but instead, my other half talked me into doing Insanity, since we don't have all my weights (due to those boxes that haven't arrived)  Soooooo we started Insanity on Monday (the 10th) and so far I'm really liking it!  The good thing is, it's only two months, so if I do get picked  up to run the Nike Women's Half Marathon (I should know in a few days!!!!), I can do two months of Insanity/running, and then concentrate solely on running until my half.  Once I'm done with the half, I think I'll do Rev ABS and then Body Beast.  I'll try P90X again after I do those two programs.

So, that's a wrap for now, I'll try and start blogging on a regular basis.  I'll even have pretty pictures of our place all set up!!!  But for now, here's a few pictures of a beautiful winery in Sonoma......Sonoma and Napa are sooooo close, this could mean trouble ;-)
