Phase One Of Body Beast Review

I am completely nervous starting this workout program... I still kind of am. haha

My boyfriend actually bought the workout for himself. I have been intrigued by this workout because another coach, Tarah Carr also did Body Beast and she had INCREDIBLE results!!

So if you know anything about me... I love the idea of change but never really like to go outside of my comfort zone (I'm working on going outside of my comfort zone). So anyways, another coach, Jessica talked to me about how she wanted to do it. I decided what the heck, If Jessica was going to do it, so am I! My biggest concern is that I didnt want to gain BIG masculine muscles, I want nice lean and toned muscles. I dont want to look like a body builder, its just not my style.

Body Beast phase one.
Its 3 weeks long and it is all focuses all on building your muscles! Some workouts were a little harder than what I expected them to be but I made it through. The whole point of Body Beast is to create muscle confusion, when you create muscle confusion you body improves more! The cool thing about this program is that you dont pick up one set of weights and do the move, you start with a small weight doing 15 reps, move up to a heavier weight and do 12 reps, and then move up even heavier weight doing 8 reps. It constantly keeps your muscles guessing.

This is about to get real for a second... I am not going to pretend that I can lift all these heavy weights because guess what? In a couple workouts this past week, I was using 1 pound, yes 1 pound weights.

I havent taken any pictures :( I have only taken my before photo, which I am not ready to share those yet!!!

P.S. Another reason I was discouraged to do Body Beast was because Sagi is kind of intimidating and I heard that was cocky.
But I ABSOLUTELY love him! He cracks me up in every workout.

This picture is going to be me when I finish Body Beast

No I'm just kidding!!! But instead of me becoming a Body Beast, I am going to become a Lady Beast :)

Now go get your Beast on!

What Is Missing In My Life?

I am doing a Beachbody workout right now called Body Beast! 

Another coach and I decided that we would do Body Beast together to keep each other accountable! And so far I'm LOVING it! 

I will tell you more about Body Beast in a couple days when I finish my first "phase" of the program! 

So as much as I love the program I felt like I was starting to get a little pudge around my stomach! There is cardio once a week in Body Beast but it wasn't cutting it for me. 

I NEED cardio in my life. I didn't want to stop Body Beast because I love it!

Sooo it was hard to figure out what I was going to do to make sure I got my cardio and lifting in!

For anyone what knows me, when I run I "need" to talk to someone. It's weird but I like talking while I run. That was my excuse for a while "well if noone runs with me who will I talk to?" "I don't want anyone to see my while I run, it's embarrassing" And I came up with the excuse "5:30? I have to wake up at 5:30 to run?" 

News flash Kaitlyn, if you don't get up and run, no one is goin to run for you. If you don't get up and run Kaitlyn, you never will.

Anyone else plan on getting up at 5:30 with me to make sure they get some sort of workout in before you make tons of excuses!?

What is Younique 3D Lashes?

Has anyone else out there tried fake lashes?

Yeah they suck. For some reason I can never seem to make sure they are lined up perfectly or make sure they stay on all day/night. When I wear them I am constantly checking to make sure that they aren't falling off and I look like a weirdo. I feel vain when I wear them because I am constantly looking at myself in the mirror, ewwy!

I have tried so many different kinds of mascara, ones from Walmart to ones from Sephora. Don't get me wrong they do work but they weren't giving me the fullness that I was looking for. I have long eye lashes to begin with but I felt like my eyelashes could use a little more umph!!

Randomly I started to see a bunch of ads on my Facebook and people posting on my Instagram about these 3D lashes... so I became intrigued. Did a little research and found AMAZING pictures of people who were using this Younique 3D mascara. So I decided to order and give it a try and boy am I happy I did!!!!!

Don't mind my nasty eye brows that need to be waxed.. but here is what the mascara did for my eyelashes!!

This is my eyelashes without any mascara on.

My left lashes have the Younique mascara on and the right lashes don't.

Both eyes have the mascara on.

Honestly this is one of  the best purchases I have made in a while. I love how full my eyelashes FINALLY look!
So here's how it works.

1. Apply a layer of your own personal mascara to both sides of your lashes, I use Maybelline - The Falsies Volume Express .

2. Apply a layer of the Younique Moodstruck Transplanting Gel.

3. Apply a layer of the Younique Moodstruck Natural Fibers, quickly before the Transplanting Gel dries.

4. Apply another layer of the Younique Moodstruck Transplanting Gel.

So now you are probably thinking.., this is too good to be true. My eyes are going to get infected and its probably something that I'll have an allergic reaction to because there are tons of chemicals in it... WRONG!!!
They tell you every ingredient that is in the product and explain to you what it is used for, check it out for yourself and let see what your lashes look like with this Younique 3D Mascara!

Tell Sabrina Marsh I sent you!!

How Much Money Do You Make As A Beachbody Coach?

Do you want to know a little secret about me that I haven't shared with anyone except my family?

You do? Okay good, keep reading then.
Now please understand what you are going read is not to brag or boast. I hate talking about money because growing up, we really didn't have any. My mom was a single parent trying to make ends meet and give my sister and I everything we could, so that we would fit in.

So back to the question, how much do I make as a Beachbody Coach?

It varies month to month and week to week. But, I make enough money being a Beachbody Coach to pay for my STUDENT LOANS every month!!!
You're probably thinking big deal I make enough to pay for my car, phone, insurance, student loans and apartment. Well yeah you probably do and that is awesome! But the money I make being a coach is just extra money that I make aside from nannying. How nice would it be to have an extra $100, $200 or $500 a month that you could use it on bills, vacation or put it away and save it!

Here is what I made for the month of August and the beginning of September! And its all by helping people live a healthier lifestyle and encouraging them!

If you dont know this about me, I've went to 4 different colleges in a matter of 2 years. Yeah scary right? The first school I went to (Niagara University) I went for Hospitality Management. I wanted to be a wedding planner, and as much as I still would love to plan other peoples weddings ALL DAY EVERYDAY, I knew that I didnt want to spend 80 hours a week away from my future family-- so I racked up about $13,000 of debt from one semester there. Went to Alfred University and the Art Institute of Pittsburgh built up more debt (Im not sure the amount anymore because I have paid that off). And lastly decided to go to a Community College and get my Marketing degree and I now have DEBT from there.

Lets be honest for a second, in today's society everyone has debt, everyone is struggling and everyone has a credit card to help make things easier. 

Well I don't want to be that person. Credit Cards scare the CRAP out of me. Every time one comes in the mail, I put it in the garbage IMMEDIATELY!! I dont want to be in debt, miserable because I cant do things that I enjoy! Being a Beachbody Coach gives me that extra cash so that I can get out of debt and so that I do not need to ever use a credit card!

So for all my friends, family, and customers who trust my advice and knowledge about fitness, Shakeology and Beachbody programs... I THANK YOU! Your belief in me is helping me continue to stay on the DEBT FREE path!

So now that I let you in on one of the most personal things in my life, my question for you is...
Are you ready to take control of your life?

Pay off some bills?

Get in better shape?

Dreamers & Doers

For anyone that has looked at my blog before now, you can see that my blog got a little makeover recently!!! Wooohooo because I love its new makeover!!! My blog has also gotten a new name. The reason for both of these changes is 1. I wanted a blog that was more professional. I felt like my blog before wasn't up to par, it wasn't representing ME. And 2. The reason for the name change... I have always been a dreamer, I still am, but the difference between how I used to dream was that I thought those dreams would never come true. Now when I dream, I know that I will eventually turn that DREAM into a reality. I will do what I set out to DO.

So with that being said... I have been given an amazing opportunity Beachbody to be a Beachbody Coach. I get to help other people reach their health and fitness goals, while also reaching mine. I get to make amazing life long friends with like minded people. I get paid to help other people, while I work from home.

I have talked to quite a few people lately that tell me, I make enough money and I like my job, so I have a dream job. WRONG!!! Do you really think you have a DREAM JOB? Do you get to take off whenever you want for however long you want? Do you answer to you boss everyday? If you just answered that you have to check in with your boss everyday, you don't have the dream job! You don't have the freedom to do what you want. How can you enjoy life and experience new things with one weeks worth of vacation a year?

This past week I did a lot of thinking... Long story short about my job, I love the families I work for but working for them isn't my dream job. I love making connections with the families and how well they treat and take care of me but I want to help more people, and reach more people. I know what I want in my DREAM JOB, I want to control how much money I make, I want to choose when I can take off, I want to know that what I am doing is helping other people and that I am making an impact on their life, I want to be my own boss and NOT have to listen to someone else telling me what to do. 

So my point of changing up my blog and making my new blog name Dreamers & Doers is because I've decided to change my life and not just Dream of my DREAM JOB, but to DREAM and DO my DREAM JOB. 

Happy Labor Day!
