Join my new FREE Fitness Support Group on FaceBook!

In honor of my birthday, I have decided that I want to start a Fitness Challenge group here on FB. This will be a group that you can go to share healthy recipes, tell each other about the new workouts your doing, motivate and encourage each other and hold each other accountable! And also to be able to ask for advice and ask questions!

You don't have to be doing any certain workout. You don't have to be on a particular diet. You don't have to pay anything. You just have to come and show your support to everyone!

Fitness is so much more fun with friends and family! (Corny, I know. But true!). Message me on FB if you would like to be added! Just click the "Follow" button on the right to message me!


You will get a notification when I add you that you have been added to -"deCLAIRE yourself FIT - My Fit Family!"

** I Just temporarily changed the group from "Secret" to "Closed" so that you can find the group and request to join! Just click the link below

Coach Internship Available with Limited Spots!

For anyone that may be interested in being able to work from home, I am looking for some HELP! 


I am opening 6 spots in my NEW COACH INTERNSHIP beginning February 24. I am looking for 6 people who want:

-To get in the best shape of their lives
-Help others achieve their health and fitness goals while striving to achieve their own
-A big support group and to be part of a positive and uplifting group
-Financial Freedom
-Training from the top coaches in the company
-A job that they would absolutely love
-To make their own hours

You may not know much about coaching and that is ok! If you know you want a change in your life or want to fire your boss, take this chance! There is never a "right" time to make a change in your life. The time is now! I'm so excited about starting this group and helping others achieve the success that I know is possible with coaching.

You DO NOT:
-Have to be a fitness expert or professional (I am not!)
-Have to be in the best shape of your life (I am not!)
-Have to have a degree in nutrition or a degree at all. Just a willingness to learn and grow!

If you follow my daily to do list consistently, you could be making $1000/ weekly after 1 year. Crazy right?! Definitely possible and within reach!

Please contact me using the purple "Contact" tab on the right side of the page if this sounds like something you may be interested in! For those who join my team this week you will receive a new coach care package from yours truly;-)!!

I'm only take the first 6 people who are ALL IN!

P.S. Before you ask, this is NOT a SCAM, I promise ;)


There is a "What is BeachBody Coaching" Call tonight. Dial in and then let me know what you think!

Healthy Heaven!

This is one of my FAVORITE health recipes. I LOVE IT! And what I like even more is that it takes about 5 minutes of prep time - if even that.

So without further ado, please welcome my dinner from last night!


Who wants some?!? Here is the recipe that I use!

INGREDIENTS:
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple rings, juice
drained and reserved
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
4 pork chops
1 pinch ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix together the drained pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, and garlic powder
together in a large plastic zipper bag, and smush the bag a few times with your
hands to mix the marinade and dissolve the sugar. Place the pork chops into the
marinade, squeeze out any air in the bag, seal it, and refrigerate overnight. Reserve
the pineapple rings.

2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.

3. Remove the chops from the marinade, shaking off excess, and grill until browned,
the meat is no longer pink inside, and the meat shows good grill marks, 5 to 8
minutes per side. Brush several times with marinade and let the marinade cook onto
the surface of the meat. Discard excess marinade. While the meat is grilling, place 4
pineapple rings onto the grill, and allow to cook until hot and the slices show grill
marks; serve the chops topped with the grilled pineapple rings.

I usually serve it with brown right, and I add some pineapple chunks to the rice RIGHT after it is done cooking so they are nice and warm! Then I save some of the marinade to drizzle over the rice as well. It's Delish!

ENJOY!!!

Start a New LIFESTYLE, not a new diet...

With the new year I feel like I see so many people starting a new diet to lose weight. I think that is awesome when it is a healthy, habit forming diet! After all, abs are made in the kitchen! 80% of your weight loss is due to your nutrition and 20% is accredited to your exercise. The problem is, I don't see near as many people committing to an exercise plan or forming good exercise habits. They start a diet, lose weight, and then go straight back to what they were doing!!

We really need to focus on being fit and healthy FOR LIFE, not just for the Summer (or whatever big event may be coming up for you!). We do this by making smart, healthy choices and committing ourselves to consistent exercise. COMMIT! Make a lifestyle change, not a diet change and your results will last a lifetime!




Baby Weight Blues

Having just had a baby myself, and being at that stage in my life where ALOT of my friends are starting families of their own, I know so many new mom's that can relate to this story! So inspiring. Our "perfect" body and our health goals are always in our reach if we can make the commitment to work towards them!

Kati C., a new mom of two, faced her baby weight gain and postpartum depression head on with FOCUS T25® and Shakeology® and lost 28 lbs. in 10weeks of the program!

Instagram - I finally gave in on you!

I am officially, FINALLY, on Instagram!

For those of you who know me personally, I have the worst luck EVER with phones. Seriously, electronics come to me to die. It's the truth. So after ruining plenty of phones I have been stuck using my 4 year old REALLY, REALLY, slow - always crashing- Droid. I am an iPhone girl so I am not a fan of this. It makes it so much harder to use any apps!

So I did a factory reset, got my phone running a little smoother and quicker, and got my Instagram account going!!

So make sure you follow me! I'm a nerd and pretty excited about this so you will probably see TONS of posts from me while I figure this whole thing out ;)

Follow me!!  - deCLAIREyourselfFIT

And in honor of my 2 year old Kylie's current movie obsession….
