You heard me right. It’s mid-to late October 2016. Many healthy hopefuls call this no-man’s land for getting stuff done. With 80% of the year behind us and the holidays just in front of us it’s all too easy “wait until next year” to work on your goals — whatever they may be. Well, that is just silly. Enter: motivation in the form of my first ever Goal Getter Giveaway!
Do you know how much you can do in 10 weeks?
You can lose 10-20 pounds. Or, you can NOT GAIN 10-20 pounds — lol. You can establish productive habits. You can learn to cook healthy meals for you and your family. You can train for and complete a local holiday 5K, 10K or more. You can plan and book your dream vacation. You can learn a new skill. You can clear up your skin, improve your sleep and start to reverse disease. You can at the very least get started on doing anything you want to do!
What will you do with the next 10 weeks?
This late October does not need to be no-mans land for you. You can roll into 2017 ahead of the game if you take action now. Think about what you want most and consider these two options:
- If I do take action: If I do make my health and goals a priority and learn to do something different? What will I look like in 10 weeks? How will I feel? What will be different in my life?
- If I don’t take action: What if I continue to sleep in, eat sugar and pretend I don’t care? What if I just wait “till next year” like everybody else (like I do every year)? How will I feel? What will be different in my life?
Goal Getter Giveaway: Tools for you to sneak in success in 2016!
I’ve got some motivation for you. I found this amazing, detailed calendar and I thought — oh bummer, I’ll have to wait until next year to use it. Then I realized…NOPE! It actually started in September so action can be taken today – not in January! So I snagged an extra for one of you! $30 Value.
Then I called my favorite Kashi gal-pal and asked her to load it up with some healthy swag to make it even more fun! You’re going to get a taste of their newly renovated “Go Lean” brand. The yummy cereals, bars and shakes to start your morning strong. She even tossed in that cute hat! $50 Value.
To sweeten the deal, I’m also tossing in $70 Teresa Marie Wellness Gift Certificate you can use off any of my tools, resources or coaching materials! And it’s all coming directly to your door. $70 Value.
Total Goal Getter Giveaway Value = $150 + action/commitment towards YOUR Goal!

I want to avoid the holiday food funk this year. It starts at Halloween and snowballs through New Year’s. Overeating processed foods and libations because of an increase of social obligations. Coming off of the 28 Day Clean and Colorful Challenge, I am armed with my planning and mindful eating and I really want to take that into the holiday season. Just because it is there, doesn’t mean I have to put it in my mouth.
Teresa
Yahoooo Eileeen!! All your bonus entries totally paid off! You are the 2016 GOAL GETTER GIVEAWAY WINNER!! Just need your address and these healthy Kashi treats should help fight off cravings this holiday season! Woot!

My goal is to get back into the habit of running in the morning before work. My day goes so much smoother and I get to spend more time with my husband when I run in the morning instead of the evening after work.

Well I have just started myself a walking plan. My backyard is a concrete full sized basketball court. So I’ve started walking it for an hour every day. I need to improve my health because of diabetes and a new diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. I thought this would help keep my mind sharp and I hope to lose a little weight. I love this prize I am a huge fan of the Kashi products! Thanks!
Stephanie Suire
My goal is to get back to exercising 4 times a week and stretching at night.

I want to get healthier habits! I’m getting married in March and this would help kick me back into a healthier lifestyle ?
Hilary @ Embrace the Neon
I want to get back into half marathon shape!
Tricia
I’m training for my first triathlon on January 15, 2017 which means I’ll be working out 6 days a week–running, biking, and swimming.
Janet
To get back to a normal healthy routine, i just sold my house and it has been very stressful few months. Gained 15 pounds during the last few months.
Liz
I’m going to hit ONE-derland (to hit below 200 pounds) by the end of the year!
Allison Walders
I will start getting up early and working out before work. I liked to use the excuse that I would wait until after work to do this, but in reality I am super busy after work. I only have 2 days a week that I don’t have obligations planned after work. That means that I wouldn’t get right home and work out. Getting fit is something that will help me meet my weight loss goals.
Jaime R
I want to lose the 12lbs I put on while my foot was broke!
Teresa
Sooo many awesome goals here gang! And while there was only one “prize” winner (Go Eileen!!) we can all be Goal Getters and get these things done this hear! Me: I’m going to run a half marathon and get at least one medal on the wall this year, close new contract and get my board certification in Holistic Nutrition…working towards all of them right now and it feels good! We can do this gang!
