Melissa also says she\u2019s going to stick with her HMBP and working out 4-5 days each week. Not only is she dedicated to taking care of herself physically, but she says she\u2019s also going to keep journaling and doing her daily affirmations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To keep herself on track, she\u2019s got a plan: \u201cChecking in with team LSF and keeping my goals in mind \u2014 knowing that when I take care of myself I feel good!\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Runner Ups<\/h3>\n<h4>Toni; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/toneituptoni_lsf\/\">@toneituptoni_lsf<\/a><\/h4>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-1024x1024-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15694\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-1024x1024-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-2048x2048.png 2048w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-480x480.png 480w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-1440x1440.png 1440w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-1920x1920.png 1920w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_1-96x96.png 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Like Melissa, Toni keeps busy with her two kids \u2014&nbsp;boys this time! \u2014 and husband. She loves going on adventures with her sons and walks on the beach with her husband. On top of that, she runs her own business. She started it in 2016 after getting let go of her job of a decade, and if that\u2019s not a testament to resilience, I don\u2019t know what is!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The LSF 30 challenge was Toni\u2019s intro to our LSF community \u2014 and what a way to start! She says, \u201cI can\u2019t believe how amazing I feel (and look!) after only 30 days of working out and eating clean! LSF has changed the way I think and feel about food, which has been the most freeing thing of all coming from a girl who has literally tried every diet under the sun since she was 14.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She plans to stick with everything she learned during the challenge. What I really love is that when Tori\u2019s feeling down, she\u2019ll put on one of my YouTube videos to get herself motivated again. She also says, \u201cEngaging and interacting with fellow LSF girls is the best and keeps me going!\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>April; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/april_teamlsf\/\">@april_teamlsf<\/a><\/h4>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-1024x1024-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15695\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-1024x1024-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-2048x2048.png 2048w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-480x480.png 480w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-1440x1440.png 1440w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-1920x1920.png 1920w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080_2-96x96.png 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>We really saw moms come through on this challenge, and April is no exception. Not only does she have an 8-month-old baby girl, but she\u2019s also mom to a 3-year-old corgi. April\u2019s a married pastor and you can usually find her walking her neighborhood or savoring a coffee at one of her local cafes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI felt AMAZING after the challenge,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u2019ve had so much inner confidence radiating within since the challenge and have really been going after the goals I set for myself in my career and in health and fitness. This challenge really motivated me to take time for me since almost every roll call was focused on self-care in some way \u2014 and to find ways to move again after a very long break due to pregnancy and postpartum recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>April plans to stick with the 2-Day Detox for the first two days of each month to reset and keep herself on track. She\u2019s also using her HBMP to meal plan for each week.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>April\u2019s got a lot of support at home \u2014\u00a0her husband is super encouraging, which I love! But she\u2019s also tapped into Team LSF. \u201cEvery time I pop on Instagram, I see major motivation with all the babes crushing their daily workouts and goals. That is just SO motivating and encouraging, and it makes me want to do the same. Any time I\u2019m faced with a challenging workout, I always remember all the babes cheering me on and giving me major inspo, and that keeps me going!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4>Heidi; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/heidi_lsf\/\">@heidi_lsf<\/a><\/h4>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-1024x1024-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15696\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-1024x1024-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-2048x2048.png 2048w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-480x480.png 480w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-1440x1440.png 1440w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-1920x1920.png 1920w, https:\/\/lovesweatfitness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/runner-up_1080x1080-96x96.png 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Heidi hails from New Zealand and works with her local elderly community.
