Many great things happening....

Oh it has been a great 11 days! I have had a few emotional ups and downs but overall really good. Last post being about how I haven't lost major inches yet...I mean really it is only 11 days, no biggie; so I wanted to make this post about all the other wonderful benefits I am enjoying, in only 11 days.

If you are just joining me, that is 11 days of consistent T-Tapp workouts while taking advantage of trainer Charlotte Seims 30 day virtual coaching program (I will not answer any questions regarding what specific workouts I am doing so as not to spoil this program she is selling, you will have to buy that information from her yourself, it wouldn't be right of me to share that with you, it is T-Tapp and that is all you need to know, :D ). So, here are the great things that have happened to me these past 11 days!

#1 I have in the past had a bad habit of staying up too late and not feeling rested, I now go to sleep sooner and sleep better. It is easier to fall asleep and easier to get up in the morning.

#2 I have increased flexibility in my legs, especially my right leg that has always been tight. Less nerve issues in it as well. And I continue to enjoy the healing that has occurred in my back thanks to T-Tapps primary back stretch.

#3 I notice more definition in my arms, sides, and hips.

#4 I have great energy levels throughout the day!

#5 Having suffered from much sadness and even depression following a tragedy in my life as well as probably from all the bad eating that followed, I am now feeling happy all day long! I have better focus and am really enjoying myself, for real. It is like a fog covering my brain has been lifted. :)

#6 Ladies you will love this one for sure, my PMS symptoms are hardly even noticeable. Most of them completely gone.

#7 This is a benefit I have enjoyed for a long time even through times of hardly any workouts, I haven't been sick in ages.

#8 Less swelling/bloating in general.

#9 Fewer cravings!

#10 I saved this one for last as it is just something that is personally very important to me. I have for most of my life had a passion for movement natural health and healing. My struggles for a fit body started when I married but mostly I over came those struggles until 3 years and 8 months ago. I lost my desire to try, to go on. My third pregnancy while healthy enough and ending with a wonderful home birth was difficult and uncomfortable. I got really big and especially since then have found most movement difficult, so difficult I stopped caring for a long time, lost that passion. I use to love to dance, to bike, to skate, to just move all the time. I loved to move and use my body for exercise and working. For these past several years it has been just plain unpleasant and even depressing to try. It mostly made me cry.

These past 11 days, for the first time in 3 years and 8 months, I have regained a passion for movement. I have picked up hobbies with a renewed passion and joy that I haven't experienced in ages. I feel alive again. It tears me up to just think about.

This workout has in the past and continues to touch my life in ways I never thought a workout could. It has worked to heal me so well and it has kept me from illness through massive emotional trauma and horrific amounts of overeating of junk foods. I really truly could not thank God enough for my finding this and for the great gift he gave Teresa Tapp as she created this workout.

Thank you to GOD almightly the great alpha and omega, creator of my soul and of my body; my body that works so well at healing itself when I care for it properly!

I want also to thank Teresa Tapp who besides creating this workout has through her generous giveaways and discounts (via super closeouts or her regular contest for free or discounted product) has enabled me to bless many others with the gift of the T-Tapp workout. Thank you to T-Tapp trainer Kirsten Tucker as I learned a lot in her class (my first T-Tapp class ever!), and to trainer Charlotte Seims for her wonderful online coaching program that has pulled me out of my slump of mostly not working out and into the world of consistent workouts! I prayed for an answer to this problem and her email about her latest coaching program was my answer.

Of course also thank you to all the other T-Tappers out there and on the forums. You are all so supportive and sweet! And to my mother for always encouraging me and being there for me no matter how I was doing. To my kids, always a smile for me and a hug on a bad day. They are what I live for and keep going for. And of course to my husband, for never giving up on me, for always assuming I would make it and for supporting my decisions and for letting me buy all the DVD's my heart desires as well as an expensive treadmill. And thank you for reading and joining me here on my journey!

  1. Thank you, Sara, for documenting your journey! I will have to go through your blog and read your other posts. You are inspiring me to get moving, once again, and pull out all those great t-tapp dvds and videos I have. I do remember how fast things seemed to tighten up when doing the workouts!! Happy Holidays and much love to you.
