It is 2016. It is time for me to get my financial house in order. I am 61. My life has been family oriented. I am very fortunate because I was and am a stay at home Mom. My husband worked and took care. Our son Thomas 26 and developmentally disabled lives at home. I have worked through out my life but always on a part time basis and for myself so I could set my working hours around the needs of my family.
Now, I want to create my own substantial income. This is one part of my life that has been missing. I need to know that I can do this. I am expanding my focus from Healthy and Fit to Healthy, Wealthy and Fit. Healthy and Fit I have a handle on. Financial well being is certainly related to health.
So much more to come!
Empowering~
“Nothing is more empowering than getting control over your spending, your money beliefs, and your cash flow. And nothing is more thrilling than seeing your bank account grow as a result of these changes. Anyone can take the same steps I’ve taken to achieve peace of mind and better financial and physical health. The first step is simply knowing you can do it! ” Dr. Christiane Northrup
I love fashion on some level. Feeling good and therefore looking good is important. I really love clothes that are comfortable, #1 and stylish #2! I always enjoy seeing what Ellen Degeneres is wearing. She certainly looks put together and comfortable.
I feel good in my clothes because I am in shape. I have a strong core and my clothes fit. Fitness is my fashion statement.
Thank goodness because here is my closet. Not much in there. It is amazing that I look as put together as I do:)
Socks can make the outfit. I love cool socks. You can have a pair of jeans or cozy black wool pants on with fun socks and you have an outfit!
Now, this is FASHION!
One last tip. I use my BOOM products by Cindy Joseph everyday. They make me feel good and put together. Here is my make up demo. One of my most popular videos. Does my audience care more about makeup than burpees? Maybe, it is easier.
I would love to hear from you. What is your go to outfit… the one that makes you feel fit and fabulous?
My intention for 2015 was to empower as many people as possible to become Fat Burners…Fit and Fabulous. It has been a wonderful year and 2016 is just around the corner.
We just finished a Fit and Fabulous Sugar cleanse. It takes 5 days to change from a sugar burner to a fat burner.
“I am proud to say I went to a wedding on Saturday, day after completing RESET, and did not cheat at all!! woo hoo – that’s big for me & the desert was creme brulee, my favorite!! so i can honestly say that my sugar craving has disappeared and hoping it will be for awhile!! down 5lbs and already feeling a little lighter.” FROM A HAPPY FAT BURNER!
I blogged about Menopausal Belly, it was a high traffic day. I know it is an issue. What has happened? Why am I thicker around the middle? What can be done?
I have coached many people through the 5 day Reset program. It will take you from being a sluggish sugar burner to a vibrant healthy fat burner. I have coached many through the 5 day Reset and beyond. THE PROGRAM WORKS!
Are you a sugar burner or a fat burner?
If you are in Fat burning mode:
Sleep soundly through the night with no night sweats. (Menopausal women as well, decreased night sweats!)
Hunger will be at a minimum. You will have a feeling of emptiness not irritability, urgency, low blood sugar or a feeling of fogginess. You will be in a balanced state.
Mood will be stable. You will feel in control with more self confidence.
Energy will be consistent and abundant . You will develop a feeling of Lightness.
Cravings will be almost non-existent. You will be amazed that you can pass up on snacks that would have taken you down in the past.
Bonus Round…You will be losing Fat including that stubborn fat around the middle.
The BIG QUESTION! How do I become a FAT BURNER?

From one of my Fit and Fabulous gals! “I finished my 5 days on Reset yesterday. I thought it was going to be so much more difficult then it was and in fact it wasn’t difficult at all. My craving for sugar has subsided and I have never felt so good and proud of the 5 day accomplishment I have endured. Thank you Mary Kiningham for the guidance and the guidance as well as suggestions to keep going down this path of Swedish Fish free way of living”
Dr. Christiane Northrup describes the experience this way:
“I encourage you to eat in ways that will promote long-term health benefits. If you start eating healthier today, it’s likely you’ll be rewarded with weight-loss in five to ten days. After that, all you have to do is modify your lifestyle to maintain steady blood sugar. Here’s the best part: You can lose fat effectively while feeling great in the process. Keep your blood sugar stable and you’ll experience more energy; ability to sustain exercise; clearing of brain fog; ability to build muscle; less hunger—ability to control portion sizes and cravings; fewer PMS symptoms; better looking skin; deeper, more restful sleep; stable moods and more optimism; and clear eyes without puffiness or dark circles.”*
‘Tis the season, when I start wanting Chocolate chip cookies. In the past, I loved to bake the best chocolate chip cookies! I would eat them! My family would eat them, I would give them to my neighbors and the mail man. I would tell them that they were the best chocolate chip cookies!
Friday, Tom and I went to the Christmas tree farm to pick out a tree. Tom picks out the tree.
They are usually a little on the small scrawny side but that is what we love. At least I do! “The Charlie Brown tree.”
Yesterday, we decorated the tree, lots of lights, a few ornaments and dried hydrangea from the garden. I noticed, I really wanted cookies. It is a strong memory from the past, my childhood, my grandmother…. It goes way back.
I didn’t bake so I didn’t have any cookies in the house. I made a chocolate nutrimeal instead AND for a real treat I threw in a frozen banana. It helped. I am making better choices. In the past, I would end up with a yeast infection in January because I ate so much sugar. I do it differently now and I will still enjoy a few cookies this December. I will also enter the New year, healthy, vibrant and FIT! How about you?
Are you addicted to sugar? It is in so many products, cereal, ketchup, canned foods … The list goes on.

I incorporate Foundation Training by Dr. Eric Goodman in everyone of my workouts! This training is an unique combination of Strength and Flexibility. THE PERFECT COMBO! “It will redefine your core, conquer your back pain and you will move with confidence!”
Here is an exercise that I do almost daily. If you are sitting for hours at your desk or in a car, the founder is a wonderful exercise to do. It activates your glutes, hamstrings, lower back and upper back. It is so important to strengthen the muscles that support your spine.
460 miles of driving, The FOUNDER was a life saver!
I am! I googled baby Boomer. If you were born between 1946 and 1964, you are considered a Baby Boomer.
Are you thinking about retirement? Are you wondering how you will spend your day? Are you concerned that your money will run out before you do? Have you ever thought of having your own business? It seems like a crazy time to start a business. Actually, I think it is the perfect time. I have had my own business for almost 9 years. I create my own hours. I do my business around my special need’s son schedule. I fit it in on my terms. Love that!
I have meet some amazing people along the way.
My family and I are healthier because of the business and I am making residual income.
Here is the wonderful testimonial. “thanks so much Mary! Yes, I feel really good since I’ve been very diligent about taking my supplements and I find that having the prepacked supplements for the AM and PM helps keep me on track, I know I wasn’t taking the recommended dosages before. I work in special ed as you know and it can be so physically and mentally draining and I’ve been finding that my energy levels have been great, instead of collapsing when I get home I take a healthy,long walk with my dog and do push ups on a bench in the woods and some free weight work when I get home, even though I haven’t weighed myself I don’t feel as bloated and the menopausal “muffin top”, isn’t as overflowing as it was before and things are fitting better. I also believe that keeping up with this vitamin regiment has really helped decrease all the other menopausal symptoms that I’ve been plagued with like fatigue, thinning hair and nails, weight gain and hot flashes..I’m in a much better place then I was a year ago and I thank you.”
I don’t think there is much more to say. THE PROGRAM works! Would you like to join us? Muffin top…BE GONE!

“Ladies, look at this face and look at all of your faces, the face of leadership,” Fiorina says. “This is the face of a 61-year-old woman. I am proud of every year and every wrinkle.”
This is perfect. I don’t know anything about Carly Fiorina or her politics. My sister mention this quote to me Tuesday morning on my 61st birthday and I am so grateful for women in my life that have inspired me to embrace my time of life and all of its blessings.
It is such a great attitude to embrace your wrinkles and your age spots. Be proud of what you have accomplished and the wonderful adventures to come. I am inspired by the work of Christiane Northrup. Her book Goddesses Never Age is full of wonderful insights to live your life to the fullest. Dr. Northrup talks about not telling your age. I understand that.
Thank you!
Your health and vitality is so important at any age and especially as you get older. It is all about how you feel. My intention is to inspire women to gain strength and flexibility at any age. You can feel strong, healthy, and full of energy. Sometimes, it proves a point to tell my age.
This passed year I have also been inspired by Cindy Joseph, the model, founder of the Pro-Age revolution. She is all about embracing your age and letting your silver hair shine. She has inspired me to grow out my blonde highlights and let the silver come through. I am halfway there and so far so good. I love her make up skin care line Boom. I love the simplicity, one product, one color for lips, blush,and eye shadow. Here is my make-up demo with Boom:)
I just got the latest JCREW catalog. Lauren Hutton looks amazing wrinkles and all~ I think I will buy what she is wearing:)
