Mechanicsville, MD HELLLLLLLLOOOO! I'm Shelbi (PowerPlay in WOWY and on the boards). I bid a fond farewell to my 20's and stepped into the land of 30-somethings. Whew, that happened fast! I've been in Human Resources for the past 15 years and now VP of Business Operations which is something that I love. I’d like to think that I was an HR Queen and can waive my magic wand and solve all of the HR HELLLLLLLLOOOO! I'm Shelbi (PowerPlay in WOWY and on the boards). I bid a fond farewell to my 20's and stepped into the land of 30-somethings. Whew, that happened fast! I've been in Human Resources for the past 15 years and now VP of Business Operations which is something that I love. I’d like to think that I was an HR Queen and can waive my magic wand and solve all of the HR problems of the world. Too bad I couldn’t do the same to my unhealthy habits!! What it really means is that I’ll talk to just about anyone about anything; so combine all of that with a newfound and persistent passion for health and fitness and BAM!...You have the NEW ME chock full of energy!
Recently, my daughter asked me, "Mommy, what happens to today, tomorrow?" Knowing that she wouldn't understand my answer, I jokingly responded, "Tomorrow, today will be yesterday." And then it hit me...my ten year old smacked me in the face with reality..how ironic? Today will always become yesterday, so for me, today is going to be TODAY! We've all used the same excuse of getting caught up in our spouses, kids, jobs, schedules, etc. but most of us hold the same thoughts in the back of our minds that there really is a day that we start taking care of ourselves again. Well, today is MY day, so make it yours too!
I've battled with weight most of my life and always surrendered to all of the emotions that come with it. It’s no secret, I was the heavy girl in the group of gorgeous friends – the funny one, the social planner, the dependable one, and the one they all came to for advice. As time marched on, so did the pounds…right up my calves to my thighs and then on to my belly!! I started hiding behind any excuse to not attend events and gatherings. The friendships I’ve had for years and years were fading just as the phone calls with invites. Who wants to go to parties and get-togethers when you feel like you look like an elephant? Talk about “Elephant in the Room”! Without question, I lost out on precious time with the people I care about most in my life. I’m determined to make that up!
I look forward to some challenges to make me stronger (pardon the pun) and certainly the countless rewards of sharing a healthier lifestyle with my family and friends!! I intend to pay it forward and hopefully my passion with motivate others to do the same. How can they not? This is fabulous!!
Here I go! I hope you are ready for me!!:)

Transform, transitivo, métamorphoser, trasformare...no matter what language it's in...I consider myself very lucky to be here to experience it. From my darkest days of hiding in pantries to sneak a snack to outward leaps and bounds of overflowing self-confidence, my story starts like many...when Beachbody saved my life!
A myriad of medical issues has plagued my family tree and medical genealogy. Most days, I considered our family to be the central database of poster children for Murphy's Law. What I realized, is that you have to control the things within your control. Our choices in food and exercise are opportunities to break the cycle and for years, I just watched it all compound and felt like I had to succumb to what seemed like the inevitable. During my transformation, I was empowered with the tools and support to make better decision, make changes, and to make new memories and new adventures!
I excited to share them as a Coach! When you feel good, you make everyone around you feel good!!
