El Cerrito, CA I describe myself as a "glass half full" kind of person - with a positive outgoing personality - someone who loves life. I grew up on the east coast but came out to California 20 years ago. I am blessed to live in a beautiful place SoCal - where the sun shines most of the time! I'm single, no kids - which just means I have NO REASON not to give this my all! :-) I really believe what's unique I describe myself as a "glass half full" kind of person - with a positive outgoing personality - someone who loves life.

I've struggled with my weight all my life. I was overweight as a kid, and food has always been a challenge for me - what can I say I love Chocolate!! :-) But I've also always LOVED to work out - dancing, biking, walking - pretty much anything. Unfortunately my weight would yo-yo depending on the stresses of work or life. A few years ago, once again my weight was back up and a friend told me about Tony Horton's Power90. When I went to check out the website it turned out I already owned TurboJam and had done Slim in 6 with a girlfriend a few times! But I didn't realize they were all part of the bigger Beachbody company until that day!
So I purchased Power90 - it was the kickstart I needed. I ended up losing a good 35 pounds!! Some people can't believe it was that much - it's amazing what you can hide with the right outfits! Anyway, as great as I felt, I was focusing so much on the exercise, I was forgetting the 2 other KEY components of the Beachbody program - nutrition and the community! And sure enough, over time, my workouts were slipping, and my poor food choices were catching up with me, and the weight was creeping back on... that's about the time when the SAME friend told me about the Beachbody coaching opportunity.
I realized it might help me reach my own health/fitness goals once and for all, so why not try it, what did I have to lose other than the weight! I'm happy to say becoming a coach, and specifically getting connected with the community and like-minded people who want to live healthy/happy/fit lives has been a turning point in my life. My weight is at a low I haven't seen in over 10 years... and I'm just as excited about my increased strength, and how healthy I feel! Basically I can't stop smiling :-) Now I know that staying connected via Wowy and the Message Boards is critical to my continued success! And who knew – turns out the food matters too!
Anyway now that I feel so good, I want to pass it along! Whether you’re a customer of mine, another coach, or just someone who relates to my story – I would love to hear from you! I know now that I can’t do this alone – I need to be reminded on a daily basis of why eating right and exercising is so important – because sometimes my mind tries to tell me otherwise!
So, that's my story. I'd love to hear yours! Email me via the BB website, or at sarahksmile@gmail.com or send me a buddy request.... and if I'm your coach - Welcome! I'm here to share my experiences and offer you help in any way I can - don't hesitate to reach out to me! :-)
