Monday night mash up with @katiebianchi . .. .. From our HME to YURS

Everyone has a journey. .. .. Life is a journey with many ups and downs but consistency is the key.... Way back in August 2016, I won one of the challenges at O, losing 24 pounds and 9% body weight. 11 months later, I had gained almost all of it back my before picture. I am a mom of three kids (7, 11 and 14) and back in 2017, we sold and bought a new home and renovated the kitchen all while my husband was traveling for work for the first time in his career. My kids at the time were too young to be home alone so my O time was very limited. I tell you this because sometimes life happens. In October 2017, another 12 pounds heavier than that picture, it was time to take back control. I joined another challenge at O, this time working with Patsy from MCC. I worked with her on and off over the course of the next two years and got down to the same weight I was in August 2016. But my goal was to get to my pre kids weight and I was really struggling with those last 5 pounds. In January 2020, I decided to try something different and started working with Kelly Gaffey. She introduced me to clean eating and it made a world of difference. Those last five pounds disappeared and then some. That should be the end right, but it’s not In the months since being on my own, I have reflected on my journey at O. It occurred to me that when I have someone holding me accountable, I am a good little student following all of the rules and when I am left to my own vices, the wagon is so easy to fall off. LA’s message after class on Saturday really hit home with me: Be consistentevery single day. Things come up, things go down. Life changes but try to stay consistent with your health. Because if you don’t have your health, you have nothing. Consistent you every single day of the year. And then her words in her post on Sunday: Make yourself proud. We all struggle. Even that super fit girl in the corner and the instructor teaching the class. The important thing is to keep our heads held high, keep moving forward and motivate each other. My goal for 2021: it’s time to make myself proud by being accountable to me and the way to do that is to be consistent. See more

THANKYOU MILTON We are so thrilled to have WON in a WHOPPING 11 categories this year! This year was a little bit different than most. With all of the COVID craziness I actually forgot all about the Readers Choice Awards. ... Didn’t send out any email reminders to vote and barely any social media reminders. Too busy pivoting & planning so THANKYOU for nominating and voting for us. We have changed a lot since we opened almost 10 years ago and this just proves that we are so much more than just a gym or a studio. Health is way more than push ups, presses and diet plans. It’s care, compassion and a whole lot of love MIND,BODY & SOUL

RANT Winners has a huge line up all the way to the back of the store. No one social distancing ... No one spraying and sanitizing after people touch all the stuff People walking past brushing up next to you Kids running around Must be at least 120 people inside maybe more. Entire families out to shop Yet.... I’m allowed to have only 10 people, 9 feet apart??? And pay FULL rent??? Taxes, utilities etc.... ?!!!! I clean the crap out of the facility multiple times a day with super expensive medical grade cleaners. Spray down anything and everything people touch. Keep big doors open for ventilation Contact tracing on point for every single person that walks through the door. How does this make sense???? This is completely ASS Backwards I never complain on this page BUT....... What the actual F is going on here?!!!!

We are 100% STRONGER as a community when we can work together and support each other.

#TBT to a awesome day and to a kick ass bunch of people

#TBT to an awesome day with an awesome crew of people

Hey....... is today a grey feeling day? Feeling like the smile on your face is not genuine? If you answered NO then If you answered YES, then ...... Ya..... I know. I feel the grey creeping in too. Turn off the news for a bit. Go for a walk. Grab a coffee or a tea and find a quiet spot to sit, ALONE. In your car, on a bench. What ever. Just find a place to re-set and re-charge in SILENCE. Our world is all kinds of crazy right now and the toll that it’s taking on our overall health is crushing. If you feel yourself slipping it’s ok to admit it and talk with someone. It’s also ok to lean on your loved ones and unleash. They are usually the ones that will always love you, even at your ugliest. We are all riding this Tsunami together. You are never alone.

Sound familiar? You’re NOT alone.

Transformation Tuesday. .. .. There is a very big difference between interest and commitment. When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstances permit. When you’re committed to something, you accept NO EXCUSES, ONLY RESULTS. ..... .. Photo Cred: @west_studio Transformation: @theresabrereton See more

There is a calmness to a life lived in gratitude. 2020 has thrown us some fast and furious curve balls. Every day is different and it feels like we have had to learn to to shift and adapt hour by hour, minute by minute. Thanksgiving is a time of togetherness and gratitude. Right now more than ever it’s not WHERE you are in life, it’s WHO you have by your side that really matters. ... Happy Thanksgiving

Let’s help those In need this Thanksgiving. This year people need assistance more than ever Instead of dropping off at ONYX this year please consider dropping of directly to The Salvation Army on Nipissing. ... This is what they are looking for Financial donations or gift cards are suggested; however, food donations are always welcome, we are mostly in need of juice, cookies, crackers, cooking oil... They are serving our neighbors in a drive thru way at the back of the building, Food Bank is open during weekdays except Thursday between 9 am and 2pm (for donations).

The dancer in me can’t help but squat to the beat smooth like butter .. .. Great classes this morning team

Today was a Studio A kind of day with Carly Wheeler-Badovinac and Rachel Northcott Noad .. .. The body is made to move in a wide variety of ways. Cross training involves exercising or training through different styles, methods and fitness modalities. Consistently doing the same exercise can become repetitive. Switching up your workout routine every now and again can improve overall fitness and performance. ... We love the fact that we have 2 distinctly different studios at ONYX. A perfect mix of NYX FIT & NYX FLOW

Saturday morning STEALTH MODE ON

COVID can’t stop our grind

Stress levels have been at an all time high for what feels like an eternity now. People are really struggling and finding it hard to cope. I know I feel the weight of the world’s current issues, uncertainty and the fact that we just don’t know what is going to happen from one day to the next. One thing I do know for sure is that being around positivity and light helps lift the dark cloud. ... We don’t know what’s going on in other people’s lives. What stresses they are facing. Snap Reactions can be good and bad..... something that gets said unintentionally or in a stressful situation. Stress can make us react in ways we don’t mean and act out in ways we would have never acted if those stresses weren’t there. We are all feeling it and sensing it in the people we love and the people we see daily. I can’t begin to tell you how thankful I am for this place over the last few months. It’s helped wipe sadness and heartache away more times than I can count. Today was no exception. This morning we smiled, moved and laughed together. Putting away the stresses and shutting away the outside world. Supporting people dealing with hidden struggles. Thanks for making me smile Dino aka Julie . You are battling shit that goes way deeper than so many of us are right now. You are a warrior and a fighter and I am so happy you are in my life. Today no matter what happens let’s just LET IT GO and be HAPPY. #fuckcancer #support #letitgo #fucovid19
