You know, I get asked often to share what exactly I have done and do to get my results. I can invest time in a person and give them a workout program, also tell them how they should eat, but more times than not, they don't do it. I can give them the tools, but I can't make them use them.
"What do you eat?"
Well, here's my blog that has my personal recipes, plus you can access my entire food diary online. I follow a macro-based plan when eating. I've found the most freedom in doing so, while also experiencing maximum results toward my goals.

"How often do you workout, and what do you do?"
I strength train 5-6 days a week (those are 45 min workouts) and do cardio 2-3 times a week (lasting up to 30 min each time). It doesn't matter if I'm working out at 9 am or 9 pm...I've made my fitness a priority, and get it done.
"How do you find time? I can't go to the gym."
For me, the actual "going" to the gym is part of my process. However, you don't need a gym to get fit. You also don't need an expensive home gym. You can workout at home. I'd recommend buying a resistance band, stability ball, and some Dumbbells (start with 2-1/2 to 10 lbs). That's all you need to start. There's an abundance of great exercises you can do from the comfort of your home. As far as finding time, we all have the same 24 hrs in a day. I'd don't try to fit in a workout, I DO. It's become important to me to do it for me. So, my kids know, just like we have scheduled time for homeschool, meals, and free time, mom has her gym-time. If you're home-bound, schedule 30 minutes for yourself to get in a workout.
"Do you add anything else?"
Of course. Anyone that is serious about their health understands and values the importance of supplements. I can't possibly get all the nutrition I need each day from food alone. Plus, I want to get maximum benefits all my work in the gym. For that I rely heavily on my It Works! products. I use daily:
•It's Vital Core
•ThermoFit
•Confianza
•Hair Skin Nails
•ProFIT
•Regular
•New You
Plus, I also use the amazing skincare line to keep my skin looking healthy and youthful.

"What's one bit of advice for someone wanting to get started?"
Don't wait. Start today by maybe detoxing your kitchen of processed junk food. Or write out your menu for the next week, and only buy the ingredients needed for those meals. That's how I started. Little baby steps turned into bigger steps over time, and I've come so far in just a year. Quit putting it off. You only have one body. It's up to you to take care of it. On the days I wasn't motivated to do it for me, I did it for my kids. They deserve to live a healthy life, and it my responsibility to teach them how to do it and provide the proper nutrition for their growing bodies.
