#TransformationTuesday meets #FatBlast50

Everyone loves a good #TransformationTuesday photo op - it's such a celebration of how far you can come and the amazing victories that you are able to accomplish when you really put your mind to something. Recently, we wrapped up our second annual #FatBlast50 competition where we kicked the sugar and grains to the curb to push our bodies mentally and physically and start 2015 off right! It’s kind of sad, really. The 50 days of #FatBlast50 have come to a close. We had over 50 energetic, motivated and focused individuals join our #FatBlast50 transformation challenge to kick off their 2015! The Goal Start 2015 off right by building healthy habits with a clean diet, more movement, consistent exercise with accountability along the way. The Benefits On top of fat loss, there was a list of other benefits that challengers noticed:  “More energy!”    “More focus” “Sleep better and through the night!” “No more bloated feeling!”    “Tighter tummy” “Stronger”    “Leaner”    “Feel lighter” “Cravings have gone away” “I haven’t felt this good in years!” “Better control of my moods” “Definition in body shape” “My pants are too big” “I fit better into my clothes” “I have to buy new clothes” “My back pain went away” “My knee/shoulder pain is under control” “No longer hooked on Advil” “My osteoarthritis is under control” We're so proud of all our challengers.
