I’m curious – where do YOU fall in your never-ending list of to-do’s?
If you are in line with current statistics, the answer is most likely “low priority.”
Finding the time to exercise and eat right can be challenging, especially as you get older. But tending to our own emotional needs can be an even bigger challenge. It’s hard enough to balance a career and family with your personal life, never-mind with a fitness routine and “self-care.”
We all do it.
When life gets busy, self-care and exercise are usually the first things to go. Who has the time, right?
But then we wonder why we feel cranky, tired, unfulfilled.
You often hear about work/life balance, but perhaps even more important than that is body/life balance—the ability to live your life without being held back by the feelings you have about your own body!
Well, I’ve got good news! I’m going to show you how to fit it all in so that you can be at the top of your game for yourself and for the people you love. I am hosting a FREE virtual boot-camp called The Commit to Being Fit Body Breakthrough Bootcamp.
You’ve got to make yourself a priority . You can’t be of any use to anyone if you have no energy, if your health starts to suffer, or worse, if you end up in the hospital unable to do anything!
Join the Commit to Being Fit Body Breakthrough Bootcamp and learn:
Set attainable fitness goals & accept accountability
Prepare a menu that includes well-balanced nutrition throughout the day.
Squeeze in cardio, even when you’re busy
Incorporate yoga into your workout routine
Cook meals that are healthy and taste great
Create a mindset that supports ongoing success
Because you deserve to feel vibrant, alive, comfortable, and at home in your body.
You deserve to not only LOOK great this summer, but to feel proud of how you’re living. To feel confident and sexy in your own skin!
It’s totally FREE.
I am also creating a private Facebook community exclusive for boot-camp participants. You can ask questions and get tons of support from the experts and other women going through the class too!
This is a truly life changing event that you’re not going to want to miss.
You can learn to create a healthy, EASY lifestyle that keeps you in perfect body/life balance without requiring you to spend hours you don’t have at a crowded gym or money you don’t have on expensive gourmet food!
It’s a system , a system that puts the right steps in the right order. And it works!
OMG!! I heard this powerful statement this morning and I had to share it with you:
“What you declare, you HAVE to make happen!”
The reason I thought of you is that I know that you are so ready to finally create consistency with your diet and exercise and that 2017 is your year to declare it and make it happen.
So what’s really holding you back?
Getting consistent with your healthy habits is NOT hard.
Dealing with your inner chatter and reversing the old patterns and beliefs of HOW you get consistent to accomplish your goals is the mess we need to clean up.
It’s time to drop into your heart and ask yourself one question:
Truth is, how we take care of ourselves is a true reflection of self-worth. When we commit to consistency with diet and exercise, it is representing a high level of self-love and self-respect. And this consistency will have a positive ripple effect into every other area of your life.
When you commit 100%, you start every single day knowing what needs to happen in your day to become the HEALTHIEST version of you! And then you’ll be ready to rock this out in every day for the rest of your life
If you really want PERMANENT LIFESTYLE RESULTS, you CANNOT skip this very important step, you have to make yourself a priority so that you can show up as a leader to be there and inspire all the people in your life! You can’t give up!
When you don’t put yourself first, you keep yourself from experiencing the big, PERMANENT LIFESTYLE CHANGE you desire and deserve!
And I KNOW you want to get this right once and for all.
So, what’s keeping you from having consistency with diet and exercise in 2017?
Comment below and let me help you break your patterns in eating and consistency with fitness.
If you’ve ever had a moment where you dreaded going to an event because you weren’t happy with how you looked, take a minute, and read this email.
Shorts, tank-tops, swimsuit and wedding season are all upon us.
Listen, we all know it’s supposed to be “what’s on the inside” that counts, and that’s certainly true.
But let’s be honest — it stinks to look in the mirror and not love what you see; to regret the fact that you didn’t start sooner; to then deal with the self-loathing that comes with that rude awakening (or with seeing your legs under the harsh fluorescent lighting of the dressing room!); to dread the things that are supposed to be fun because you don’t feel good about yourself.
And it isn’t just extra pounds that hold YOU back!
Every single one of us has some kind of weight that our body is aching to let go of:
Physical weight….(Inches and pounds)
Emotional weight…(Forgiveness, heartache, lack of confidence, disappointment)
Spiritual weight…(Fear, unfulfillment, confusion)
Life isn’t meant to be heavy, but as human beings we struggle with all kinds of real and metaphorical dumbbells that make us work way too hard for not enough in return.
There is an easier way. If you are ready to release ALL of the weight keeping you feeling stressed, ashamed, and uncomfortable, then I have great news for you!
I have created a FREE virtual boot-camp just for you!
I interviewed over 20 other “fitness and lifestyle experts” to walk you through a TOTAL body and wellness makeover.
And, beginning on June 27, you can have access to these interviews, (at NO cost!) as well as the high-value bonus material and free giftsoffered by the experts.
It’s time to stop with the excuses and finally commit to a healthier lifestyle. This inspiring series will show you how to:
Set attainable fitness goals & accept accountability
Prepare a menu that includes well-balanced nutrition throughout the day.
Squeeze in cardio, even when you’re busy
Incorporate yoga into your workout routine
Cook meals that are healthy and taste great
Create a mindset that supports ongoing success
What if I told you that losing weight doesn’t have to be difficult?
That getting happier doesn’t have to be difficult?
That feeling more energetic can actually be a quick and easy fix?
What if your body is actually programmed to RELEASE the heaviness and burdens it’s carrying around, and all you need to do is flip the switch and set the wheels in motion?
That’s the most important part. YOU have to flip that switch. YOU have to take action.But you don’t have to join a fancy gym or buy a $400 juicer. All you have to do is register HERE and get your daily Body Breakthrough lesson and start implementing!
It won’t cost you a dime and you can absorb all of this great information from the comfort of your own home.
I am also creating a private Facebook community exclusive for boot-camp participants. You can ask questions and get tons of support from the experts and other women going through the class too!

Yesterday I realized something so important. With everything I want to accomplish, I feel like I cram something into every single minute of my day.
Do you ever do that?
Do you try to fit in all your phone calls while you’re driving like ME, only to hit the floor running when you get out of the car? Then you listen to personal development podcasts while you exercise and read articles to get you ready for the next big thing right before you fall asleep.
What happened to a few minutes of me time? What happened to music and laughter? Sights, sounds, smells? Hugs and cups of coffee? Where did the joy go?
Though our efforts to better ourselves really can get us to the next level, sometimes, they can also lead us to nitpicking our every flaw. We are on high alert with all that fine-tuning and action-packed living, so we become hyper-critical and hyper-focused on everything . . . including our diets.
If you really pay attention, those times when you are chugging the high-octane bulletproof coffee and fitting more stuff into every moment like your life is a giant game of Tetris or scrabble (am I dating myself there?) are also the times when you feel like you have to count every calorie and criticize every extra bump and lump you may or may not have.
Do me a favor. I want you to step back and think about where the beautiful things in your life are.Are you taking the time to focus on them? Do you give yourself a few minutes to enjoy your favorite song, meditate, chat with a friend, or gaze at the sunset?
I want you to do that.
When you take the time to bask in the good things in life, you can also focus on you and how wonderful you are.No matter where you are with your fitness goals, you are worth doing that. You are amazing, whole and perfect exactly how you are!
Carolyn was a busy mom of four, and yet she found the time to prioritize her own health and happiness as a bridge to joy!Here’s what she said about our time together:
If she can do it, YOU can do it. And it starts with knowing what you want, and allowing yourself to slow down enough to enjoy it!
Decompress and love yourself. Leave the critique behind and embrace you.
Only when you can honor yourself enough to focus on the beauty in your life will you be able to let go a little and gain the strength you desire, building toward the healthy body you want.
I want you to be happy. When you’re happy, you don’t need to worry about being perfect. Remember, happiness is a choice, decide every morning to make joy a priority!
You can just. Be. You.
So what are you going to enjoy today?
I’d love to hear about it!
XOXO,
Lisa Goldenthal

So many people are looking at the calendar right now and starting to sweat. In more ways than one: feeling nervous and hitting the gym.
Why? Summer is just around the corner, and with it comes swim suit season.
We put so much pressure on ourselves to lose weight and look good in our suits, sometimes for just one week a year when we go to the beach. It’s a little crazy if you think about it.
Why does it matter for just one season? Shouldn’t it matter all the time?
This is one reason why people have the yo-yo diet effect: we count calories and cross our fingers when we get on the scale. Then, once we reach our goal . . . we also reach for an extra slice of pizza.
We don’t have to live this way! Losing weight and keeping it off is a matter of adjusting your practices AND adjusting your thinking surrounding your body.
1. You know you need to exercise and eat healthy, right?
But it’s fun to relax and enjoy a cookie sometimes, too. And that’s ok! Making an activity like watching TV or a food like your favorite brownies taboo just makes you want them more. So let yourself enjoy the things you like! Just do it in moderation. Give yourself a cheat meal every week or a small piece of chocolate every day. Make Friday night movie night. Maintaining your diet and exercise routine the rest of the time—yes, I mean all year!—will become even easier.
2. Make a habit of fueling your body with what it needs to feel good.
When you boil it all down, don’t we want to lose weight because of how it makes us feel? We feel good when our clothes fit. We feel good when we can play outside with our kids (and not get TOO tired). We feel good when people compliment us on how we look. So think about your diet the same way. When your body gets enough water and protein and lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, you FEEL good. When you are in the habit of doing this every day, you’ll notice a change in not only how you feel, but also how your clothes fit. Get addicted to feeling good, and the weight will come off and stay off!
3. Rather than weight loss, make feeling good and being strong your focus.
When you obsess over counting calories and checking the scale, it’s tough to keep the weight off. The anxiety of constant dieting just isn’t healthy, so focus on building a healthier, stronger you instead. Notice what you gain: energy, muscle, confidence. All three of those are great for encouraging you one more step toward your goal!
It sounds pretty simple when you break it down. Just a few changes could keep you in your skinny jeans through fall, winter, and spring . . . and leave you sweating for all the right reasons next summer!

I was so psyched to hear about the success of one of my clients that I just had to share it with you.
Janet emailed me to tell me about the success she’s had since we started working together. In her own words, “It’s been amazing!”
I started helping Janet earlier this year, and in just three months, she lost a total of 21 pounds. Fantastic, right? I was so proud of her for reaching that goal!
Just learning how to select the right foods to fuel her body and focusing on exercises that helped boost her metabolism, burn fat, and build strength has made a huge difference for her. She has been able to cut the cravings, enjoy whole foods that power her every day, and eliminate the emotional eating.
Here’s what Janet had to say:
I know that we all know the “rules” for becoming stronger and healthier and losing weight, but working with someone towards our goals gives us that added boost to finally reach them. That’s exactly what Janet needed, and I’m thrilled that I could help her see such amazing results.
So let’s talk about what you want to do! Click HERE to send me an email to schedule a free call so we can get you into the body you want, with the energy and outlook you need for your daily life.
YOU could very well be the next huge success story!
