Welcome Queen! 👑

Hey Queen! So, in terms of exercise here’s what helped me in those areas:

- Power: Don’t be afraid to incorporate weights and other exercise equipment. The Power sessions in this program are great for toning and muscle building. I recommend 2-3 classes a week.

- HIIT: these workouts will definitely burn a lot of calories. If you’re able to incorporate power sessions 3x a week, I’d sprinkle in 1-2 HIIT sessions a week in addition to them.

- CORE BARRE classes! Queen, this one changed the game for me! Try to do one barre class a week, it is challenging, but it really helped me with establishing core strength and muscle. It definitely worked parts of my body that I didn’t even know existed 😆

I hope this helps Queen. Ultimately, everything in this program is great. Focus on building consistency (example: commit to working out 3x a week) and then you can add on additional workouts - this helps with making sure you don’t overwhelm yourself.

Hey Queen,

I definitely understand your current situation. We don’t get a break as Moms and it can seem like ‘our time’ to live for ourselves is far away or worse… impossible.

May I ask, do you talk to your fiancé about receiving support while you’re on your health journey?

My husband didn’t understand that I needed time to workout and get my life together to make a major life change. Over time, our relationship reaped the benefits of me, not only losing weight, but becoming a better version of myself overall (less grumpy, joyful, loving etc)

Hey Queen!

Personally, I did have issues losing while I was on BC. It became a little easier when I stopped taking the depo shot and started taking pills.

As of now, I’m not on any BC (personal choice). But I definitely understand your frustration. Getting off of it definitely helped, I saw a significant improvement afterwards.

No worries, I put a vote in to Cookout Essentials just for you Queen 🤗

When I tell you I literally laughed out loud 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

But you got through it though 🤗🤗🤗

Trycele DeVon Hey Queen! So there’s two recommendations I can make. The first has to do with nutrition. Are you getting enough protein in? What about your carb and veggie intake. I’m not a firm believer in completely cutting everything out - just learning how to do things in moderation. Also, are you doing any sort of resistance/weight training? AKA Power classes? HIIT is great, but I noticed a change in my body once I started incorporating power classes into my weekly routine
