"My healthy swap was yogurt with, you know, 56g of sugar!" LOL Shelby, a Certified Strength Coach (CSCS) and nutrition coach (PN), joked this with me as she shared how she went from working in a restaurant, being a heavy drinker and smoker to a popular blogger talking all things health. There was no specific pivotal moment she simply wanted to be healthier. Whatever that meant, just healthier. She knew the restaurant environment was not serving her and she wanted to change. So she wrote a gym owner asking if he would hire her and change her life. And he did! As she noticed small shifts like in her energy it encouraged her to keep doing a little more.

Now Shelby has the Fit As A Mama Bear Blog and has shifted back to focus on fitness and the gym but there are a lot of good entries about healthy easy food. Shelby has three kids (7, 5, & 2) and shared how her priorities have created the structure for her days. She fills up her cup by enjoying her coffee in peace even though her kiddos are up around 5:10 a.m. each day. Then they migrate down to work out. The kids know that she's not leaving the house till the workout has been completed. She's setting an example and the kids understand fitness is fun not a chore.

She put the importance on showing up. That's how she helps her followers. Shelby knows life with kids, work, and an unhealthy lifestyle. Start by showing up even if it's just two 5 min workouts. Scale back your mind to know it does not have to be a certain length of time or a certain structure. You have to start somewhere! Focus on one thing you can do to show up.
