I’ve Been Cheating on the Blogosphere

It used to be that 99% of my online time was spent with blogs. Reading them. Writing them. Organizing my feeds.
Ok, so I don’t actually organize my feeds. But I’ve thought about it from time to time.
But several months ago I discovered the message boards at Team Beachbody.
And I never left.
I actually started my journey with Beachbody way back in 2003 after having my first baby. We were stationed in Japan, and there weren’t many options for me for exercise. I heard great things about something called Power 90, so I ordered it and lost all the baby weight in just a few months. Then I got pregnant again, and I kind of forgot about Beachbody after that.
And I had no idea at the time that they did infomercials. Good thing, too, because I probably would have written them off if I had!
It wasn’t until after my third baby that I came back to Beachbody. I had broken my ankle when I was six months pregnant (ever see a pregnant woman on crutches? not a pretty sight), and I packed on the weight. 70 pounds. And all I did after having the baby was gain 10 more! I have tried and tried to get to the gym, and last year when Isaac was deployed to Iraq and I was home alone with the kids, I realized that I needed a workout I could do at home and that I LOVED. I needed the workout to motivate me, cuz I sure as heck wasn’t getting the job done.
I started with Slim in 6, then Turbo Jam, then Chalean Extreme. I got active on the message boards, and I haven’t left since! I have started working as an independent coach for Team Beachbody, and I coach people for free! Tomorrow their newest program, Insanity is scheduled to arrive. They say it’s the hardest workout ever put on dvd, but I’m actually excited to attempt it.
So, if you’re wondering where I am, or think maybe Insanity has done me in, check out the thread that I host. If you’re interested in any of the Beachbody workout programs, I can be your coach! For free

I’ve been cheating on the blogosphere with Facebook.
How does the workout/coach stuff work? I might be interested.
