All - Access Pass

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, BOD, beachbody on demand, new year resolution, 21 day fix, shakeology, weight loss support, weight loss success story


Wow, almost 3 months without a blog entry - sorry... life has been tough - 2016 was tough... And in the mess, I lost track of so much of myself, my goals, me. And part of me felt like it was all a waste, until I took a step back and saw all the lessons. So I'm on a mission - get back to me twenty-seventeen!

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, BOD, beachbody on demand, new year resolution, 21 day fix, shakeology, weight loss support, weight loss success storyI started this year at the peak of my fitness, and over the middle and late part of the year I needed to
take a step back; pursue low impact, embrace yoga. And the great thing about Beachbody, is that I had that option at my finger tips. My goal of 2017 is to regain my strength and progressively work my way in fitness level. And again, Beachbody will be able to change as my needs change. That has been the single blessing of On-Demand - I have access to countless workouts at varying fitness levels.

I am thrilled to announce that Beachbody On Demand is launching an All-Access Pass. This annual pass will come with the Portion Fix, a 30 Day Supply of Shakeology, and 12 months of Beachbody On Demand. But not just Beachbody On Demand, a completely UNLOCKED version! That's right all the programs unlocked and ready for you try out, mix and match, or progressive from one program to the next! All our famous programs - 21 Days Fix, 22 Minute Hard Corps, Cize, Country Heat, Insanity, T25, EVERYTHING! Plus, ANY new workout program launched in 2017!

The Nutty Mermaid

Since the girls and I have a hard time getting in all of our veggies, I have been sneaking them in my shakes! And when they ask why it is green - I simply tell them it is a mermaid shake with seaweed (aka spinach!) - and they can't tell the difference!

Great way to get a few extra vitamins in with my superfoods before germy school season!

With Country Heat, Autumn Calabrese brings fitness and fun together in one exciting country dance-inspired workout that's simple, effective, and such a blast, you'll be dancing off the pounds before you know it. I sampled a workout, and it is a lot of fun (which means a lot coming from a non-dancer, non-country fan like myself). But like me, you might have a lot of questions - and hopefully this can answer a few of your questions and help you see if this new program is right for you.

If you are interested, I do have an upcoming VIP Test Group that will launch August 8th - hope to see you there (application at the end of this post)

Not only did Autumn pick these songs for their popularity, she specifically matched her moves to the faster and slower beats to create the perfect interval training within each routine. The result? A fired-up metabolism that burns maximum calories and fat!

Ultimate Health Challenge - My Journey to the Final 4

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, ultimate health challenge, Beachbody Challenge Winner, t25, 21 day fix, weight loss success, weight loss story, fit mom, free giveaway, weight loss support


Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, ultimate health challenge, Beachbody Challenge Winner, t25, 21 day fix, weight loss success, weight loss story, fit mom, free giveaway, weight loss supportI got the call that I dreamt about 2 years ago... The call that put me one step closer to my big scary goal - the call came when I was making dinner on Thursday evening... A call from Beachbody, "Hi this is Author from the Beachbody Challenge and I have some exciting news for you..."

The rest is kinda a blur... Out of hundreds of thousands of submissions, my transformation - more importantly my story - was chosen to be one of four, yes FOUR as a finalist in the Ultimate Health Challenge.

The Ultimate Health Challenge isn't about the weight lost, it is about the HEALTH, the LIFE restored. They recognized my transformation physically but also saw the bigger picture. This is why I love Beachbody, it isn't about a before and after picture for them - it is about the lives changed.... I went from a mom dealing with anxiety, postpartum depression, and uncontrolled hypothyroidism taking 13 pills a day to a mom that is full of life and happiness and down to 1 pill a day. A mom that was desperate to find happiness and confidence so she could be an example to her young daughters. A mom that found herself under the weight of obesity and depression.

In the heart of my transformation, it quickly became my passion to share my story, my struggle and my mission. And I vividly remember saying to my coach, I want to win the Ultimate Health Challenge - I want to be on stage, I want to use this platform to inspire change ((which was a huge statement for this introvert to say)).

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, ultimate health challenge, Beachbody Challenge Winner, t25, 21 day fix, weight loss success, weight loss story, fit mom, free giveaway, weight loss support

I stayed silent about my goal, but not about my mission. My mission to show moms that self love is not selfish, that healthy habits start at home, that it doesn't have to cost a fortune, and that we have the power to instill lifelong confidence ((but we ourselves have to have it and own it)). My mission to help raise awareness and support for new moms and the real threats of postpartum depression and anxiety.

I want to thank you all for your support, and for your continued support. If you would like to vote and help me reach my goal, voting will open up Monday at 12PT and you can vote once every 24 hours. Screen shot proof that you voted for me and email it to me (or send me a facebook message) to be entered in for daily prizes! Thank you again!

Little Tick- Big Problem... Living with Lyme

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, living with lyme, tick, lyme disease, fit mom, 21 day fix, weight loss journey, summer body, pittsburgh, hypothyroid, weight loss success, weight loss support


Just another Wednesday evening, I was dancing like a fool in my bathroom while drying my hair - getting ready for another long 12 hour night shift. When something in the mirror cause my eye. It looked like a hanging scab on the lower part of my shoulder blade. Without even thinking, I pulled what I thought to be a scab off, only to realize it was a tick... my heart sunk...
Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, living with lyme, tick, lyme disease, fit mom, 21 day fix, weight loss journey, summer body, pittsburgh, hypothyroid, weight loss success, weight loss support

Thinking back I did have a few symptoms, but like most moms (and nurses) I brushed it off - joint pain (well my mattress is 9 years old), fatigue (well I have 2 small kids and work night shift), chills (I must be coming down with a cold) - but in the moment I pulled the tick out, I just kinda knew - it all came together....

I went to my doctor where they promptly removed the remainder of the tick, and noticed by then I was febrile and had swollen lymph nodes. The tick was sent for testing, as was I and antibiotic therapy was initiated - if you know me, I am anti-antibiotics, but with Lyme and the risks associated with long-term or post-treatment Lyme, I was not about to refuse.

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, living with lyme, tick, lyme disease, fit mom, 21 day fix, weight loss journey, summer body, pittsburgh, hypothyroid, weight loss success, weight loss supportThe tick, not to my surprise came back positive for Lyme, which prolonged my antibiotic therapy. Between the symptoms associated with Lyme's Disease and the side effect of the antibiotics, I felt miserable - nausea, vomiting, fever, chills, sensitivity to the sun, joint pain and stiffness, fatigue but the scariest of all was the numbness in my finger tips. I did my best to deal with it - I kept hydrated, drank my Shakeology so I knew I was fueling my body correctly at least once a day, and exchanged my high impact, high intensity workouts for yoga. And I started to fall in love with it! Especially yoga in the sun - the vitamin D and warmth from the sun really helped relax my stiff joints.

I have completed my medications and I am ready to start getting back to my 'old' lifestyle. I can feel that I have lost strength and stamina. I know there will be modifications, and cursing lol, but hey - I love being the underdog and beating the odds is kinda my thing...

Fit Mom Review - S'well Water Bottles

Erin Traill, Diamond beachbody coach, swell water bottle, fit mom, weight loss success, improve your water intake, weight loss journey
With summer approaching, I kept thinking about how I would keep water cold without spending a million dollars on water bottles at the park. Plus who wants all that waste?

But seriously, every water bottle I ever purchased has been an disappointment in one way or another - leaked, sweat, didn't keep my water cold, made my water taste funny, and on and on.

I recently heard of S'well water bottles, and I wondered if they were really worth their price tag. As far as water bottles go, they are pricey. They claim to keep cold beverages cold for 24 hours, don't sweat or leak. Pretty much sounded perfect to me!

So I had to test it out - I purchased the 1 Liter size, in hopes that it would work well for a day at the park with the girls.

I filled my new water bottle up with cold water and tossed it in my hot car, in the sun for 10 hours. I came back to it - water was still cold, still had ice. No sweat on the outside and water still tasted great.

Then I dropped it down the steps - no leaks.

In my opinion this bottle was worth the price tag - I actually ordered them for the girls. Oh, and I forgot to tell you - there are tons of patterns, colors and even textures! This bottle has this fit mom's seal of approval!

The Dirty Truth about Artifical Sweeteners

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, weight loss success, 21 day fix, artificial sweeteners, shakeology, weight loss journey, weight loss support, fit mom, fit nurse, pittsburgh

I can't tell you how many times I walk down the aisles of the grocery store and cringe when I see all the sugar free, calorie free "foods"... The problem is, for years we have been told to avoid sugar - but eliminating sugar is impossible... Tah-dah artificial sweeteners seem like the perfect solution, right? Not so fast my friends... These zero-calorie chemicals, which are often added to foods and beverages marketed as weight-loss friendly, are a hot topic. They're use is highly controversial, and they're blamed for just about everything from headaches, to weight gain, to cancer.

Over the years, more artificial sweeteners—along with more controversy—have made their way to the market in an effort to satisfy the human need for sweet-tasting foods while minimizing calorie consumption. There are six FDA-approved artificial sweeteners currently on the market: acesulfame potassium (acesulfame K), aspartame, saccharin, sucralose, neotame, and advantame.

I could go on and on about the studies linking artificial sweeteners to cancer and other diseases - these studies, like most are controversial. But for the purpose of what I do, I want to talk to you about its effects on your waistline.

Our bodies are so used to associating sweet taste with calories - so what happens when we switch it up and sweet taste means zero calories? Animal models certainly indicate that artificial sweeteners can impair the innate ability to regulate caloric intake. Rats who are fed with artificial sweeteners consistently gain more weight than rats who are fed with glucose. Additionally, the rats don’t tend to lose the excess weight, even after their diets are switched back to glucose.
Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, weight loss success, 21 day fix, artificial sweeteners, shakeology, weight loss journey, weight loss support, fit mom, fit nurse, pittsburgh

Research over the last 30 years have shown that artificial sweeteners stimulate appetite, increase cravings for carbs, and produce a variety of metabolic dysfunctions that promote fat storage and weight gain.

I am a firm believer that we need to get as close to nature as possible when it comes to the food we consume. I believe artificial sweeteners are chemicals that disrupt the micro-gut, and increases cravings. And I am a believer that artificial sweeteners are just as addictive as sugar. So how do we start breaking this cycle? I have found success in using Shakeology daily. A low calorie, no artificial sweetener that satisfies my cravings while increasing my energy.

I challenge you to read the labels, look past the calorie content and educate yourself about what is fueling your cells. If you need help learning how to eat a better and more wholesome diet for you and your family. If you are ready to make a change, I am here to help you!

I love trying to find a way to mix veggies into my dishes - because honestly, I get tired of the taste of chicken sometimes! I love basil - fresh basil and fresh tomatoes just make me think of my garden and summertime.... This dish is full of rich flavors but was not a huge expense on my checkbook or my time. And yes, this is 21 Day Fix Approved!!!

  • 2 cloves of minced garlic
  • 8oz package of fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

  2. In a large frying pan, add olive oil, garlic and mushrooms.
  3. Cook mushrooms to desired (I like mine with crispy edges)
  4. Add in tomatoes, saute on medium for 5 minutes
  5. Add in chopped basil and saute for 3 minutes
  6. In a 9x13 baking dish, spray with olive oil spray

Clean Boneless Buffalo Wings

Erin Traill, Diamod Beachbody Coach, Baked Boneless Buffalo Wings, healthy swap, fit mom, weight loss, clean eating, 21 day fix recipe


I love boneless wings - crunchy outside, yummy sauce! But holy calories, fat and sugar (yes, from the sauces)! After some experimenting, I think this is the cleanest and most yummy solution! Bonus - the girls loved the chicken before the sauce, so I saved them plain for them and they thought it was Chick-fi-la! I am thinking this will be bomb in a wrap or on top of a salad - All around win in our house!

What you need:

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup of Frank's hot sauce (I didn't use as much because the girls ate them plain)
  • 1 tbsp. butter, melted (optional)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp seasoning salt
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray

What you need to do:

  1. Preheat over to 400.
  2. In a bowl, crack and scramble egg.
  3. In a second bowl, add flour, garlic powder and seasoning salt - mix thoroughly
  4. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray (I love the Target Simply Balanced Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray
  5. Dip the chicken in the egg to coat.
  6. Next, dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and cover evenly
  7. Place coated chicken on baking pan.
  8. Once complete, spray the tops with the olive oil spray (helps them to brown)
  9. Bake for 10 minutes, then flip and bake for 10 more minutes
  10. Optional step: Stir melted butter and franks together in a bowl and dip the baked chicken in the mixture until evenly coated - I just dipped mine in franks and left the girls plain!
Perfect to dip into Bolthouse Yogurt Ranch! Enjoy!

Erin Traill, Diamond Beachbody Coach, chocolate pudding pie, shakeology, chocolate healthy dessert, protein packed recipe, healthy summer recipe, fit mom, fit nurse

It's picnic time! And I hate going anywhere empty handed! This is a great protein packed dessert to keep you on point with your goals, while getting you a little chocolate fix! I love pudding pies, but now I can have a guilt free and superfood version!

What you need:

  • 1 whole wheat graham cracker pie crust
  • 1 1/2 cups low fat vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 2 scoops chocolate Shakeology
  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter 
  • 1/2 cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk

What you need to do:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl (well not the crust, silly!).  Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are blended well.
  2. Put the mixture into the pie crust and spread evenly.
  3. Freeze for 2-3 hours before serving.  
Just because it is healthy, doesn't mean you can eat the whole pie - remember 1 serving size is 1/8 of pie. Keep refrigerated and as always ENJOY!

4 week 22 Minute Hard Corp Results


 Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, 22 min hard corps, before and after photos, Tony Horton, weight loss, hypothyroid, 21 day fix, core workout, fit mom, fit nurse


When I started 22 Minute Hard Corp - I admit, I was torn... After 2 years of a fitness journey could I really get good results in just 22 minutes a day? Would it be enough? And at the same time I was excited because let's face it, who wouldn't be excited about a 22 minute workout?

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, 22 min hard corps, before and after photos, Tony Horton, weight loss, hypothyroid, 21 day fix, core workout, fit mom, fit nurseFirst of all, I fell in love with the meal plan - it is very similar to the 21 Day Fix with the awesome portion control containers, but it allowed me to eat things that I was not allowed to eat on other meal plans - like CEREAL! Yes, finally a program that included cereal ((now to just find one that includes butter lol)) I found the meal plan simple and easy to follow.

I was pleasantly surprised about the workout intensity, I could see how this could be easily modified for a beginner and it was challenging enough for someone like me ((I would say I am at an intermediate fitness level)). And I was shocked at the sweat I had going on in just 22 minutes. My favorite part was the core workout... I have been doing a ton of core workouts, but nothing like this! This worked every part of my core, front and back and my muffin top really toned up!

I am human, I had missed workouts and cheat meals along the way - nobody is perfect! I actually was hesitant to share my results because I was mad that I had put some weight back on... but the truth is, no matter where you are in your journey, it is just that a journey... there will be set backs, there will be challenges and again no one is perfect.... I faced some challenges leading up to starting this program - I had issues with anemia which made me exhausted and made it difficult to get a good workout in and my thyroid started acting up which led to weight gain - and some of it was my own fault, let's not forget the MANY cheat meals (days, okay entire week) surrounding the cruise! But I did not let these things hold me back, instead I made a plan and went for it! And I could not have done it without the support of my accountability partner and group!

One of my coaches posted stuffed French toast in a challenge group and I just had to make it! So she just used plain ricotta - but I love sweets, and with a few simple adds, I made this a clean breakfast treat! It was so simple and my girls LOVED it! I can't wait to make this for my family at the beach, I think it will be a hit!

Beat the Odds Challenge

Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, before and after photos, weight loss support, overcoming obesity, weight loss transformation, dramatic weight loss, weight loss challenge, fit mom, pittsburgh

Beat the Odds - what does that mean to you? What Odds am I talking about? I am talking about this:

  • Currently, 72 percent of men and 63 percent of women are overweight or obese.
  • Less than five percent of Americans currently are considered to have ideal cardiovascular health
  • The odds stacked against you when you have a thyroid disorder or insulin resistance
  • 60% of new mom's never return to their pre-pregnancy weight
  • New research shows sugar is as addictive as drugs.
  • In 2015, a research showed that only 1% of women with a BMI over 30 will ever have a normal BMI

Do any of these relate to you?

Pretty scary statistics... and just when you think the odds are stacked against you, and you feel like there is no way 'out' - I am here to tell you that these are just numbers, and you my friend can beat these... How do I know?
Erin Traill, diamond beachbody coach, before and after photos, weight loss support, overcoming obesity, weight loss transformation, dramatic weight loss, weight loss challenge, fit mom, pittsburgh

Well - I had a BMI over 30 and now it is 21 (which is normal), I am a new mom that is under my pre-pregnancy weight, I am a recovering sugar addict, and I have Hashimoto (a thyroid disorder that makes losing weight more difficult) SO I know how it feels to have the odds stacked against you, I know what it is like to be the underdog, and I actually had a doctor laugh at me when I talked about wanting to lose weight. But I did it - over 75 pounds lost - and I know what it will take to get you there... The right way, the healthy way, the way that will be lasting weight loss....

We will work together, daily - and you won't have to go anywhere - I will help you meal plan, find recipes that fit you and your family, I will teach you how to make this lifestyle affordable - and I want to it to be fun! So I am adding in weekly prizes to help keep you motivated and accountable!
