28 Days. 10 lbs!!!!
Hi folks. I've been long over due for a posting!! Life has been busy. But I have lots to share with you. So let's get right to it.
Update #1: Since I achieved great results with Chalean Extreme, my coach suggested I apply to be on the next Beachbody infomercial for CLX. WOW!!!! Really, would they consider little ol' me? I didn't think my body transformation was that extreme to warrant it. But everyone around me said yes!! So I decided to go for it. I wrote a brief description about myself and my before and after stats, and sent in 1 before and after picture. Then a week later, I got a response!!! How exciting. The BB folks asked me to complete some legal waivers forms for use of my name and pictures, and asked me to complete a detailed questionnaire. In addition, they wanted more pictures!! So I did just that. They seemed impressed, which got me even more excited. So now I sit back and wait. Perhaps until late fall to hear if I'm chosen. Wouldn’t that me amazing? Meeting Chalean Johnson, the creator of Chalean Extreme and Turbo Fire??? Plus filming an infomercial and getting to be on TV??? Just going through the process was fun. I will keep you posted!!
Update #2: So I finally decided to get a food allergy test, since I've had numerous digestive issues over the years. Well, I got the results and it was a SHOCKER. Very eye opening, as I was eating pretty much everything I was allergic to!! I'm allergic to all dairy and goat products, including eggs, gluten, spinach, mushrooms, soy and some others. Wow. So I am currently avoiding them for 3 months, then after I will slowly re-introduce them back. But its crazy…so hard to eat now. Gluten and dairy is in virtually EVERYTHING!!
Update #3: I'm on week 9 (of 20) in Turbo Fire. I've been incorporating CLX along with it, since I can't stop lifting weights. Over the past 2 months, I have hit a big plateau. I've remained the same weight, gaining and losing the same 5 lbs…arggghhh. So after seeing a ripped picture of my coach (Barbie), I decided right then and there that I need to go MORE hardcore, which leads me to update #4.
Update #4: With Barbie's advice, I decided to ADD 5 more cardio sessions to my current TF/CLX routine. So that means I will be working out morning (5am) and evening (9pm). For my cardio sessions, I will be walking on an incline on the treadmill for 45-60 min. In terms of diet, I will be focusing on eating super super clean. That means no eating out, no sweets or junk, no added salts, no alcohol. I will cook and plan out all meals and snacks. This will be only for 4 weeks, 28 days. My goal, to lose this dreaded 10 lbs I've been trying to lose for the past 2 months. Yeah, it's going to be extremely challenging, but I know I can do it. I am determined to do it. Today is Day 2 folks and I've already lost 0.6 lbs. 9.4 lbs more to go!! My evening cardio session was tough, but I realized something as I walked on the treadmill at maximum incline. I was not holding the bars..at all. For the full 50 minutes I was on it. Hmmm, I think its safe to say now that I am truly fit!!!
Ok, that's enough for today.
Keep pushing,
Coach Monney

Boresha Products
Hi folks. A few of you have been asking me how did I lose 26 lbs, so I will post exactly how I achieved that.
1. NUTRITION - It`s pretty simple, good solid clean eating. 5-6 small meals a day. Plenty of lean protein, veggies, good fats, low carbs and lots of water. I also use meal timing and carb cycling techniques to speed and trick my metabolism.
2. EXERCISE - OK. I sound like a broken record, but really I love any program by Chalene Johnson and BeachBody. The program I used was ChaLEAN Extreme, an intense circuit training weight lifting program. My current program is TURBOFIRE. I will get into that on a another post.
3. SUPPLEMENTS - These helped break through my plateau. My body loves to adapt and thrives on change. I use 3 main supplements and they are amazing to say the least:
(1) BORESHA ARG-MATRIX - L-Arginine supplement that helps boost energy, is an antioxidant, helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels, aids in decreasing body fat, and stimulates muscle development.
(2) BSKINNY COFFEE - Imagine being able to burn fat by just drinking coffee...well stop imagining. Thermogenic fat-burning coffee that controls hunger, balances energy and combats stress-related eating.
(3) NUVO GENE TEA - Similar to the formulation in the Bskinny Coffee, offers a fat burning alternative for those that don`t drink coffee, low glycemic green tea that controls hunger and stress eating and blocks the obsesity gene.

Finally..My 90 day Chalean Extreme results!!!
Hi everyone!!!! Wow, its been a very, very long time since I posted. But let me tell you, I've been a busy little bee. Let's get right down to it, shall we? Drum roll please........ in 90 days, I was able to change my eating habits to clean eating, I was able to push play 6 days a week (yep, I didn't miss ONE day) and as a result....I LOST 26 lbs!!!!!!
So its true, muscle burns fat!!! I am so proud of myself that I was able to stay true and consistent with my program and eating plan, which was my problem if you look back at older posts.
This is doable folks, if I can do it, ANYONE can. I can help you. Just let me know.
So what's next? TURBO FIRE!!!!!! It will be released on June 18th, so I should have it soon. In the meantime, I am doing another round of Chalean, while I wait.
Yes folks, this is a lifestyle. I still have a little more to lose, but its not much.
Decide. Commit. SUCCEED!

The 60 Day Results
Hi folks! Wow, its been a busy, busy month! I have been keeping up with all my workouts and eating clean. During the first 3 weeks of my Push Phase, I did not lose any weight at all. So I really examined and changed up my diet and guess what? I lost 5 lbs in one week!! So tomorrow is the last day of PUSH PHASE. I start the last phase of Chalean Extreme, the LEAN Phase on Monday. This is where they say you really see results and fat just melts away. Well folks, since I started Chalean 2 months ago, I've lost 22 lbs!!! WOW!!!! I feel so much stronger and I can see the changes in my body. I am super excited for the Lean Phase to see what my results will be.
After I finish Chalean next month, I will be doing a hybrid program, using TURBO FIRE!!!! For those who know me, I've being chatting non stop about Turbo Fire!!! Stay tuned for that.
Keep Pushing Play,
Coach Monney.

The 30 Day Results
So its finally day 30. I jumped on the scale and completed all my measurements and I am very pleased. I lost 16 lbs! 8 of those from my deplete week. So today is a rest day for me but I might push play and get 10 mins of abs in. We'll see. Tomorrow I start phase 2 - the Push Phase---slower lifting and heavier weights. I ordered Chalean Extreme deluxe upgrade, so I have a lot more intense workouts to choose from this month to accelerate my results. I won't lose as much weight this month, but I will bring it like I did last month. I actually love pushing myself to the extreme. It's become a habit for me now. I just hope I stick with this, even when I accomplish my weight loss goal. (oh ya..I will)
