Year in Review … Most Memorable Moments of 2018

01/01/19

2018 Year in Review | Memorable Moments | Marissa Vicario Health Coach

Happy New Year! This year we stayed stateside for the holidays and I took some time off of blogging and my usual social media schedule. We started the week in Vermont for a short ski trip to kick off 2019. I’m thankful that our travel schedule was lighter this year and also for the time off. As far as years go, 2018 was pretty ok for me. There were some difficult moments – and likely more to come – which I’ll eventually cover in a separate post, we lost our grandfather which was heart-wrenching in and of itself but mostly there were a lot of highlights and memorable moments. So without further adieu, these are my memorably moments of 2018.

As you likely know about me, resolutions aren’t my thing and I’m not big on putting a lot of expectations on a new year. I consider my life a continuous journey and everyday is an opportunity to be better. If 2018 taught me anything, it’s to stay present and to be grateful for moments like these:

Memorable Moment #1: Three Years of Marriage and an Anniversary Trip to Napa

In March 2018, David and I celebrated three years of marriage and celebrated with a trip to Napa Valley. You can read more about the trip in my Napa Valley Travel Guide. I truly hit the husband jackpot with David and everyday I’m reminded of how fortunate I am to have found a true partner in him. There are also plenty of days I ask myself why I ever married him – that’s marriage!

Memorable Moment #2: The Bar Method Soho Closed

I couldnt re-cap 2018 without mentioning barre – it’s such an enormous and important part of my life. In May 2018, The Bar Method Soho unexpectedly closed. It was difficult for everyone but ultimately, that closed door opened two more and I was fortunate enough to find new homes at The Bar Method Hoboken and the newly-opened Bar Method Broadway. The Bar Method even published my original blgo post, A Beginner’s Guide to Barre, on their corporate blog!

Memorable Moment #3: My Niece Visited NYC for the First Time 

My 14-year-old niece visited NYC for the first time in July 2014 and while I think she found it a little overwhelming, it was so special to show her the city where I live. We took a trip to the Jersey Shore,  visited Times Square, shopped A LOT, ordered the insta-worthy milkshakes at Black Tap and watched the Fourth of July fireworks show from my rooftop.

Memorable Moment #5: Becoming a #NOWWELLNESS Ambassador for NOW Foods

I was invited to take a trip to Chicago visit the NOW Foods Factory in May 2018 where I would learn more about how this amazing natural foods, vitamin and supplements company has been committed to natural wellness for the past 50 years. I walked in knowing very little about the company and two days later left with a passion for their products and trust for a brand like I’ve never felt before. My enthusiasm for their products led to an opportunity to partner with the company as an Ambassador. You can read more about my trip to the factory here.

Memorable Moment #6: Bar Fuel Workshops

Along with one of my fellow Bar Method Instructors who is also a Health Coach, we launched a series of wellness and nutrition workshops called Bar Fuel: How to Eat for Optimal Results at the Bar and a subsequent 4-week coaching program. We taught seven of these workshops at local Bar Method studios in the NYC area and are continuing to do so this year.

Memorable Moment #7: Turning 40 + A Birthday Trip to Bermuda

In October 2018, I turned 40. It was an age I dreaded for almost a decade but once it finally arrived, I embraced it. I never thought I would feel as healthy and happy as I do at 40 and I was fortunate enough to be able to celebrate my birthday both with my family in Louisville, Ky. and also with my husband in beautiful Bermuda.

Here’s an unpopular opinion … Your workout i Here’s an unpopular opinion … 

Your workout is not the Holy Grail … your nutrition is!

So many women I know tend to panic when they miss a workout or can’t fit it in, but the saying that “weight loss is made in the kitchen and muscles are made in the gym” is TRUE!

Can’t workout? Nail nutrition. I promise you’ll make more progress toward your goal doing that instead of throwing the day away. 

Let’s shift our mindset: We don’t eat to earn our food (nutrition) and you can’t out-exercise a bad diet. 

So yes, workouts are important for converting fat to muscle, for cardiovascular health and for their mental benefits. But if you miss a day or a week, your focus should be on how you’re fueling your body and not on feeling guilty for a few missed workouts. 

When you put the focus on nutrition you’re still more than halfway there!

➡️ Here’s a sneak peak at a TRIM meal plan. When you join you not only get done-for-you meal plans, but also workouts. Or you can eat your own food or do the workouts you already love. We have options to help you reach your goals! 

Registration closes soon! We start March 27. Go to the link in my bio or trim-bootcamp.com/marissa to sign up! #trimwithmarissa #trimbootcamp

TRUTH: CONSISTENCY IS THE NUMBER ONE REASON LADIES TRUTH: CONSISTENCY IS THE NUMBER ONE REASON LADIES SEE RESULTS IN TRIM 

Maybe in the past you’ve either had to follow a program perfectly to see results or believed you did, but that’s not the case for TRIM. 

TRIM is a multi-faceted program that combines fitness and nutrition to deliver results. 

And those results? That’s the MOTIVATION to keep going and make it a lifestyle!

What you need to know about TRIM:

-	TRIM is a lifestyle not a diet, so you can modify it and do it on vacation, over the Summer – whenever, wherever. We will help you make it work to fit your lifestyle. 

-	At its core, TRIM is a compilation of science-backed weight loss tactics that are proven to work. So, if you do the work, you will see results – and the best news is it doesn’t have to be perfect. 

-	As your Coach, I want to see you succeed. Even though it’s a group program, you get individual feedback and personalized attention according to your goals, preferences, and unique circumstances. 

Registration closes soon! We start March 27. Go to the link in my bio or trim-bootcamp.com/marissa to sign up! #trimwithmarissa #trimbootcamp
