  Link To Blog I have so many friends that make resolutions to start an exercise program or kick that bad habit. You know what happens? They start making excuses 3 days in Or Their bad habit is back by February. It has happened to me too. I wish it wasn’t true but it is. That’s why I decided resolutions are overrated. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. To me, insanity and resolutions go hand in hand, which is why I am going to tell you to stop making resolutions and start making deadlines. Links To Additional Resources:   Game On!

Name of Expert: Melissa Leger Why I Believe This Person Is A Warrior: Is one of my saving warriors. She saved me during a time in my life when I was drowning. During my craptastic month in 2015, she heard me talking about my many, many issues I was dealing with. She immediately texted me and asked how she could help. Before we finished our texting conversation she had already scheduled housekeepers to come to my house and clean it the next day. She did this while living 3000 miles away from me. I tell you this story because you can clearly see Melissa’s heart in her actions. She truly wants to help people and doesn’t want anything in return, that’s why I believe she is a warrior. Who They Are & Something Only The People Closest To Them Know: Melissa started going to therapy in 2008 because of a major heartbreak and fell in love with it. That began her journey that led to her book now. She watches Friends before bed. Their Battle, Mentally Or Physically, They Fought And Came Out A Warrior: After all h

“I can’t worry about my diet right now...there’s too much going on”. Have you ever said this or something like this? Or have you said… “I will get back to it next month. Right now I need to focus on ________.” I have heard that many, many times and honestly I get it. When life is throwing you deadlines, family crap, and so much more it’s hard to think about working out and prepping your food. I understand you may need to take a break from your diet, but my job as your coach is to give it to you straight... You can’t take a break from your diet just like you can’t take a break from your life. I’m going to share with you why in the show today.   Links To Additional Resources: Tired of the Holiday Diet Struggle Blog & Podcast What To Do When Everything Is Out Of Control Blog & Podcast 3 Days to Overcome Overwhelm   Wanna Get My VIP Coaching Calls?

Do you feel like you need 4 more hours in the day? Does the thought of creating a to-do list freak you out? Do you feel overwhelmed with your family crisis and deadlines that are all happening at the same time? Today I want to take a break from writing about diet and fitness to talk to you about something that we all experience no matter how hard we try to avoid it and that’s STRESS. The month of December is quite possibly the most stressful time of the year. Not only is the year ending, which may cause a bunch of end of the year deadlines at but it’s also supposed to be the “happiest time of the year”. What does that include? It is full of… -family get-togethers -Christmas parties -presents, buying, wrapping, giving All those various activities take time and can cause STRESS trying to get it all done. On top of trying to get it all done some kind of family drama or friendship situation somehow arises leading to more STRESS that eventually causes the inevitable OVERWHELM. That’ what I want to talk about

What are you eating for Thanksgiving? Do you have one dish that you look forward to all year? Is it...mom’s turkey? Is it...your aunt’s casserole? Is it...your grandma’s pumpkin pie? Maybe you are looking forward to all that and more!! According the Calorie Control Council an average American consumes 4500 calories and 229 grams of fat on Thanksgiving. That’s mind blowing crazy!!! Did I get your attention yet? There are several reasons why I believe this happens. Here are few of my theories The day is centered around food so it seems inevitable. Some of those dishes you only have once a year so if you don’t eat it then you will miss out. People suffer from “last meal” mentality. You might be thinking what the heck is “last meal” mentality. It’s something I came up with to describe when people gorge themselves at a meal that they will never have ever again. Here are a couple signs and symptoms to know if you have suffered from this… you go back for extra servings when you are already stuffed beyond bel

Have you ever… Those words bring me back to high school and college days. Anyone else play that game? It was a silly game where you say “have your ever…” and then fill with something crazy and ridiculous like “ate a sandwich while in a pool” or “ran butt naked through your college campus”.  If you had done what the person said then you stood up or in college you took a shot. Let’s play that game right now!! Take a shot of water if you have done any of these things. Have you ever… -tried to lose weight for a dress you have to wear -tried to lose weight for a reunion you are attending -tried to lose weight for a vacation you are going on Did you take a shot yet? Okay, let’s get more personal. Have you ever... -tried to lose weight to impress somebody -tried to lose weight because you were going to see someone you haven’t seen in a long time -tried to lose weight for a person you were dating How many shots did you take? If you have ever done any of these things then… CONGRATULATIONS!! You are normal!! We’ve

When was the last time you said… I want to lose weight. For some of you that was...this morning, last week, or even 5 minutes ago. I can’t even count how many people have said that to me. In fact when I fly and the person next to me asks me what I do I say I am an accountant because there are not usually many follow-ups to that. However, if I say I’m a weight loss coach then they have a million questions that last the whole flight. Moral of the story is… a lot of people want to lose, but not a lot do. For the longest time, I remember people telling me they want to lose weight. I would say “Great!!” Then I would set them up with everything they needed. I would give them workouts, break down their diet completely so they knew exactly what to eat and what to buy at the grocery store, and I would even give them coaching tools so I could help train them mentally. (If you are thinking I wish I had all that then you can!! Sign up here for my complete weight loss plan.) Then I would check back in with them and fi

Mom...what’s for dinner? Do you remember asking that question? My amazing and wonderful mother wasn’t around to cook dinner so for me it was more like “Dad, whatcha cooking?” or “Bro! I’m hungry”. My dad and brother did a lot of the cooking growing up. Now you might be thinking “that’s a nice antidote but what does that have to do with dieting?” Well, a lot. I think we can all agree that our childhood and how we were raised plays a huge role in -who we are -what we like -how we communicate -our habits -our mentality -what we eat -and so much more!!! Many of the people I meet and work with have bad habits and mentality towards food they have no idea where they come from. They discover through working me that many of those bad habits or mentality come from their childhood. However for them they are so deep-rooted that they don’t even know it. I’ve always said, “if you want to fix the future then understand the past” (feel free to tweet that at and tag me @michellerosefit). If you don’t understand the pas

Have you ever felt like your diet was consuming your life? A few years back I made it my New Year's goal to do a bikini competition. Now, a bikini competition is not like a figure or bodybuilding competition. You don't get judged on your athletic endeavors or how big your muscles are. You are being evaluated on the overall package of how your body looks symmetrically while having long lean muscles. I thought it would be a good goal to work towards because I had never tried anything like that before. Prior to that, I had run marathons and other races, but I had never entered anything where I was being judged off of how I looked. I started this goal in January and didn't stop until September. Over those next 9 months, I learned a lot about myself and my diet that I never knew before. For nine months straight I... -logged my calories everyday -only went over my calorie allowance 9 days the whole time -became obsessed about what I was eating -had to know where I was going out to eat, so I could prepare and plan
