"Ha, this will never work for me!"
See how it did...

“Ha Ha, this will never work for me!” I thought when I first heard about ColorFUEL. After all, I’ve tried it all. When  I approached 40 years old, I just accepted that the 25 pounds that I’d gained since having two children was just a part of my metabolism slowing down and couldn’t be avoided. I  tried everything out there, without going to extreme or drastic measures, and nothing has worked.  Then someone introduced me to Jenn and Allison of ColorFUEL and to be honest, I didn’t start with the best mindset. I wanted to support my daughter in learning how to eat well, as she is a dancer. I knew I would try this program to support her, but in the back of my mind, I convinced myself that I would gain more weight if I ate like this. Who did these girls think they were? They insist that food is the most important thing to weight management,  but I just didn’t think eating this way would work for me. Imagine, eating bread AND losing weight? Hah! Well, I was the one who was wrong. When I first signed up, I challenged them every step of the way. I didn’t like this, I didn’t like that, I can’t do this and more. Every objection I came up with, they had a solution for me and so it began, my ColorFUEL journey. You’ll never believe what happened? I lost weight and most importantly, I feel like the original, younger “me.” My body is strong and lean, just like BK (before kids.) I have a much better self image and when I look in the mirror, I like the way I look. I feel like the real me is back!

I can’t tell enough people about ColorFUEL! It does work! I encourage people to invest in the ColorFUEL approach by making it a lifestyle change. It is not a quick fix plan, it garners long term results and success if you stick with the ColorFUEL approach. I menu plan every week and purchase all my ingredients using the shopping list, so I have good, healthy ingredients, and I stick with the 5 meals a day. I make several portion sizes at once, so I have food for the rest of the day/week. I am selective when I eat out (of course I eat out!) and am no longer afraid of making special requests as ColorFUEL has taught me how to eat out. I am still amazed that I can enjoy bread and fruit, after all, as women, we seem to think carbs are bad.  I enjoy chocolate as a treat, honey, rice, potatoes and I don’t gain weight! Why? Because I now understand the portions that my body needs to stay fueled throughout the day. It can be as simple as that!

I’ve heard all the objections about why people think they can’t ColorFUEL their lives: family, work, etc. Let me tell you, you CAN do it! I am the managing director for Idaho Dance Theatre, I run our Boise church in the evenings, I do administrative work for my husband’s business and there’s more. My kids are both now in college, and this has me traveling and on the road between visiting them and my work for a non for profit company. I am constantly on the go and right along side me is my cooler, full of ColorFUEL meals and snacks. I no longer buy the theory of “my body is just like this” or “it’s just how it is when you get older.” No it’s not…your body just needs to be ColorFUELed!
