I've been where you are now and trust me when I say I KNOW how you feel....  

• It's been a sucky few months (or years!) balancing life - you're being pulled every which way at work and home, are totally overwhelmed. Unfortunately, your body has paid the price.
• You are tired of feeling tired, uber stressed and wishing for a change. 
• You want to be done with grazing on office food and fast food crap,  but you don't really do diets. You want to be able to eat. Just maybe not ALL the things ALL the time.
• You need clear instructions and a plan. You can't do complicated.  It needs to be simple and convenient or it's not happening.  
• You've tried the gym and bootcamps, but sticking with it is just too tough these days.
• You like the support of others, but you don't want to get started with anything that's too "woo-woo". You don't do too well with perky folks and you don't want to let anyone down.
• You are ready to feel awesome again and kick ass in every way, but where do you start?  Too many options.  What's legit and what's not?  You don't need one more thing to sort out.

It's time to ditch the excuses and take revenge on what the rat race has done to your body.  And I want to help you make it happen.

What it is...

This 30 day, online, live, health and fitness program was created specifically to help busy, career women - like you - take BACK control of their health by getting a system and routine going, getting focused and getting disciplined. Get rid of the guessing. Work it in day-by-day. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time! 

Why I know I can help

In short, because I know what it's like to feel stuck in a rut, feeling under appreciated, overworked and ready for a change, but not sure where to start.

I know what it's like for work and responsibilities to consume you.  One day I pulled on my 'fat jeans' and, holy hell, they were tight! How did this happen?  I wanted to get back to my former weight (maybe finally tone!).  I wanted a path that could get me back to me, but didn't have a clue where to start never mind finish. 

Hi! I'm Melissa Hart, a health coach and fitness instructor plus have a corporate, hectic, day job (not to mention a spouse, 5 year old son, dog and a fish, lol).  I definitely know busy and have been helping women like you who need a simple way and a (gentle) shove to get back on-track. 

Cliche´ as it is, if I and over 100 of my clients can make it work, I know you can too!

My Story

I had become 'skinny fat'.  I gained a few pounds or so every year  (damn that office desk job!). Plus some extra wiggle in my middle after having my son.  I looked fairly slim, but was out-of-shape and over the years had gained a couple sizes. :(

Mornings were a nightmare. I was totally that crazed person rushing around just to get out the door. Going to Starbucks for coffee and breakfast (grande white chocolate mocha latte with a sausage, cheddar & egg sandwich, please!). 

Lunch was always rushed (or skipped) as I put work first. A sandwich, chips and a large coke were my go-to.

Working insane hours at my corporate gig, I wanted to just plop down and veg out on TV when I got home.  No energy to even think about working out. Forget waking up early to make lunch or exercise.  Not happening. Between checking email and getting out-the-door I had a general 'tomorrow' attitude and a bulging muffin top to show for it.

This wasn't what I wanted for me and I wasn't sure what to do.

I knew I wasn't interested in a gym membership. I was over the rushing to get a spot in the group class. I had no clue how to use the machines except for that thigh machine, but the spread eagle pose was awkward (and plain embarrassing) as hell.  The treadmill and elliptical machines bored me. The gym had become a scene.  More of a place to go to be seen.

As a working mom I wasn't trying to take more time away from being with my son either.  Plus, I drove right on past the gym before I had him.  Not like that was gonna change now.

I took a stand and made a change.  I was done with feeling powerless to control my own time and needs.  Tired of being tired. 

So I started my new adventure with simple 30-minute workouts that I did in my living room.  I did them mostly at night after I got home and put my son to bed.  It would make for a late night, but I was used to those anyway and determined to do this for me. On weekends I'd do them when he napped or played near (or on/under) me.  After a few weeks, I was pumped to do them and would wake up before everyone and get it in before the madness started. 

I didn't do anything radical.  I didn't count calories or weigh food. No strict food no-nos. I had a glass of wine a few times a week and carbs too. Just not tons like before. I didn't give up chips forever either.

I added a shake for breakfast to replace my unhealthy Starbucks morning ritual. Super quick to make and drink on the go. I've learned so much about what to eat, how much of it and when.  It's a legit lifestyle change not a diet.  I like a little variety, but simplicity and routine win out every time. 

So did it work?  Hell yea!  I'm more fit (I can do push-ups and hold a plank for a minute and a half, y'all!), lost 12 pounds, tightened up the jiggly and dimply bits, have more energy, less stress, and am rocking my clothes.  Am truly happier and actually more productive and focused.  Some bonus side affects:  my skin is clearer, my hair is longer and doesn't break as easily anymore, my nails are tougher and grow longer too.  

I'm a better mom, spouse and general person. All around win-win.

You can do it too! I promise. Whether you want to lose weight or just tone up. It won't happen overnight (nothing ever worth having does), but if you follow the systems I have put in place using simple tools I will share with you in the Ultimate Body Reboot Program it will happen.

Imagine...

• You feel awesome. You're excited again about the day. You wake up happy and feel centered. Something you haven't felt in a really long time.

• You did the dang thing and nothing suffered! In fact, everything improved! Your health, your fitness, your perspective and your productivity! And it was easier to do than you thought.

• You look GOOD - and people are noticing. The foods you are eating now are positively affecting everything from your waistline to your skin.

• You're back in your 'regular jeans' - the ratty sweats, stretchy pants, and loose shirts you're wearing now are in the donation pile.

• You're radiating a new kind of energy. You're more confident. You're more alert. You don't feel like you just want to fall into bed when you get home. You're back in control of your mood. You do things now with more purpose and joy.

• You look forward to your daily sweat session - bring it on! It's the me-time you've been needing.

• You are stronger. You're able to do physical things you couldn't just a month before. Walking up stairs? No panting! Push ups? Check! Gotta put your carryon in the overhead bin? No problem! Piggyback ride for your little one? Hop on! Carrying your groceries inside in one trip? A breeze! (I know you did just one trip before - who doesn't?! But now it's not as hard.)

• You are back in control. You have a routine and you know what you need to do to keep the momentum going. You're in the swing of things with grocery shopping, meal prep, and know what workout comes next.

• You're confident and living your authentic life again - and damn proud of it.

How This Will Work

This program is about getting back on-track and seeing results.  It's about incorporating simple, repeatable actions every day to kick ass and take names. Nothing extreme. In our time together, we're going to focus on four (4) core strategies to make real progress:

1. Dialing in your nutrition. The key to feeling better and looking great is mostly nutrition. We will relearn the basics and put them into action. Small steps.

2. Daily exercise. But, yes, you WILL workout. :) You want lose weight - but also get stronger, increase your endurance and flexibility, right? Yes. You do. Going from drowning in work and responsibilities to conquering your goals will require moving your body more and getting that sweaty glisten going.

3. Accountability and support. Most folks going it alone stop too soon; right before the results start showing and hit their groove. It's not because they don't have the right tools. It's support. Sometimes the 'haters' are in your family, sometimes it's friends or co-workers, sometimes it's you! Some people won't get it. That's okay. You won't be doing this alone. You'll have me and the others in our private Facebook community to keep you motivated.

4. Weekly Training Videos sent to your inbox. New topics each week with daily prompts in the Facebook community:

• Week 1: GOAL SETTING - Those who have a short term goal are the most successful

• Week 2: TIME MANAGEMENT - how to fit it all in

• Week 3: MINDSET - we will focus on getting YOU focused

• Week 4: MAINTAINING - digging deep and uncovering why you want to do this and why you need to keep going

I'm not promising easy, but I am promising you a path to follow and that it will be worth it.  You just gotta start.

What's included?

VIP Access to me

I run the Ultimate Body Reboot program via a private Facebook community (only open to my clients who enroll). It's where you and the others who are committing to go after their goals will get the daily support, motivation, inspiration and tips from me throughout our 30-days together. It's a safe space for you to check in daily and share - the good, the bad, and the ugly! Have a question? Want to celebrate a success? Feeling frustrated? I'm just a post away!

Solutions, tools & systems, specifically:

Nutrition: Shakeology-   You've probably heard of it.  Yes, it is worth it.  Yes, it is better. No, you can't get the same thing for less with a different brand. You can get a variety of shakes that claim to be similar, but they are cheaper.  Key word being cheap.  Filled with chemical crap, questionable quality control, less servings...all in an attempt to compete with Shakeology, but are missing something - quality. Imitation is flattery, but your health and what you are putting into your body isn't where you want to skimp.

Since drinking Shakeology, I have less cravings, more energy and longer, stronger hair and nails. No chemical crap or artificial anything in it. It replaced my multivitamins (savings!) and is what I typically drink for breakfast every day as I drive into work or as lunch on those days were there's just no time. Tons of recipes and 9 flavors to choose from.

Nutrition: Super simple color-coded portion control system.  No foolishness like weighing food, counting calories or points. Pick your food of choice - if it fits in its container - you can eat it!  No one has time for complicated, but we do need systems that work!

Nutrition: Eating plan. Shows you exactly what to do and when - includes options for vegans, vegetarians, gluten-free and paleo. You can even use the system when eating out or traveling!

Fitness: Beachbody On Demand - Online streaming of fitness routines by the best in the industry and their celebrity trainers. You don't have to decide which workout to get and wonder about whether you'll like it - you get them all! Plus a cooking show. Once you finish one program you can keep on rollin' to the next. No worrying about missing a class or being late for a trainer. No hassles with parking. No wandering around the gym. No waiting for a machine. No wondering what to do next - follow the workout calendar!

 The Ultimate Body Reboot is the program and the support and tools you need.  Period. I did the homework and have tested them out so you don't have to worry about if they will work; they will.  Just push play.

Ready?  Let's do this!
