Hi everyone!!!!
so my name is chelsea! I am a 21 year old stay at home mommy, wife, in-home day care provider and emerald beach body coach!!! My interests include anything family related, staying active and getting outside as much as possible anything nutrition related. I love learning more and more as the days go on about my body , what works for it and what doesnt! Now for the main reason of my blog! lol my weightloss journey!!! ok so i have pretty much been overweight since I was about 7 years old probably! I pretty much grew up revolving my life around food. I LOVED to eat! lol My mom pretty much always gave me little debbies, ice cream, chips, soda ,candy when I wanted it. My mom did make dinner every night but many of those dinners included mexican dishes with tortillas, rice, beans or something fried and greasy. I never really noticed i was over weight until hit about 4th grade. I noticed all the skinny girls and that I didnt look like that. It bothered me but not the the extent where I would do anything about it. Of course people would make fun of me. Rather it be my own siblings or kids at school. It hurt me really bad but i was young what could I do ? I cant choose the meals my mother would make me. So once high school came along I would do "fad diets" every once in awhile. A fad diet is pretty much a diet that states if you eat this for this amount of days you will lose X amount of weight. They work, but sadly the weight would always creep back it way on me. I remember taking about 5 of my mothers trim spa pills thinking I would magically lose weight and then proceeded to stuff my face with pizza. Unfortunately the next morning I woke up the same haha. After I graduated high school I moved to Nevada with my boyfriend (who is now my husband) So my sister encouraged me to go to the gym with her and start eating healthy. I weighed in at 213 lbs the first day. I was mortified!! It had probably been a year or two since I had stepped on a scale!!! I could not believe that I was in the 200's! So a soon found myself at 191 lbs. Still over weight but feeling a lot better about myself. Of course the universe had decided I would not be skinny and I found out I was pregnant!! I literally remember thinking that I could eat whatever I wanted because I was pregnant now ! I went and got Chinese food and a big bag of chocolate covered pretzels!! YES! I ate all of it! lol I ate whatever and whenever I wanted! A lot of late night milkshakes, fast food and cereal! I ate a lot of cereal. I found myself at 240 lbs by the end of my pregnancy! I was HUGE! After I had my son I went down to 215lbs. I swore to myself I would lose the baby weight and then some. Every Monday was "the day" but many Monday's passed by and I never started. I had gained 15 lbs and was back up to 230 lbs.I was extremely unhappy, unhealthy and hated the way I looked! March 11th was literally the day I changed my life!! I started eating healthy and working out every day pretty much. I had no idea if what I was doing was right but I was losing weight and I LOVED it !! I broke the 200's three months later in June! I was feeling awesome, people were telling me how good I looked. I became comfortable in the 190's I guess and pretty much stopped working out every day , it was more like once and awhile or when I felt like it for about 4 months I never really completely went back to my old eating habits with a fear that I would gain all my weight back. Oddly enough I sustained by weight-loss. I got tired of looking the way I did and decided to go full force once again somewhere around the end of october. I started doing turbo jam and instantly fell in love wiith ! It was a lot of fun! Turbo jam is a workout program created by Chalene Johnson! literally like my role model! Its like a dancey , kick boxing/ martial arts kind of workout. I joined a 60 shakeology challenge and fell in love with beachbody! I dont know where I would be now if it wasnt for my awesome coach! I had honestly known her for about like almost a year through instagram before every actually connecting with her. She would always try to get me to join her challenges but I never really did. lol Then one day I decided I would give it a try! I ordered shakeology! Which I cannot live without! lol Its amazing! So here I am now typing this blog as an emerald beachbody coach and ready to totally kick A$$!! I am starting p90x on 4/29 this monday!!! My up to date weight is 172 so a 58 weight loss for me! I have such a passion for helping people reach their goals! PLEASE do not doubt yourself!!! EVER!! you can do it! I am here for support, tips, motivation ,help anything I can do in my power to help I WILL do it ! <3
