Good So Far

I am on the morning of day 7 and I am feeling great!  I have energy and enjoy my shakes.  I made it through the first week of shakes no problem.  Today is my first cleanse day so no shakes for me today.  I have had on cleanse out of four so far.  I will post at the end of the day with how I felt.

Still Alive

Day 4 has come and gone.  I still feel great and am not hungry at all.  I treated myself to Subway for lunch while I was on the road yesterday.  Yummy!  I am optimistic that I can do this for months on end until I get to my goal weight.  The next 4 days are going to be crazy as my daughter has 5 performances for her dance recital, starting tonight.  I will have to plan ahead to be able to stick with it.  I am sure it won't be to hard.

Before Pics. Warning! May Cause Vomitting!

EWWWWWWWWWWWWW

So here is a pic taken of me on May 2.  I am disgusted with what I have let myself become and it has taken a lot of courage for me to even post these pics.  I tend to dress in clothes that hide this figure not accent it and I certainly never advertise it!  Anyways, this is all about to change!  Stay tuned!  Day 3 is done and I feel awsome!

GO!!!!

Ok, so I have been SUPER busy this week and have not posted but I will break it down day by day.

Day 1:  So I started May 1st.  I was sooo tired and a bit hung over from the ladies night I attended the night before.  I had a bit of a sour stomach and a headache and normally when I am hung over the only cure is greasy food and cold pepsi.  I woke up and started the diet as planned.  I made a vanilla shake for breakfast and added a few ice cubes and some frozen fruit.  It was pretty yummy and my sour stomach went away!  I was kinda surprised to be honest.  There is a shot of Ionix Supreme that you have to take each morning and it is NASTY!  I managed to gag it down, all the while reminding myself that I can down a shot of equally nasty tequila if I decide to so I just forced myself.  My friend suggested putting it in my shake the next day.  I had a chocolate shake for lunch and again added fuit and ice and it was not bad.  I had some almonds and a hard boiled egg for my two snacks and made myself a yummy low cal supper.  I didn't feel hungry all day and my sour stomach and headache were gone shortly after breakfast.

Day 2:  I put that nasty shot of Ionix Supreme into my chocolate shake that morning.  YUCK!  I had to gag down the whole shake.  I won't be doing that again.  The day went well.  I was super busy and on the road with work so I took a healthy lunch that I could eat in the car and lots of water.  I had to stop to pee a lot!  I was really stressed  most of the day but never once got the urge to eat and I was never hungry.

Day 3:  So far so good.  I forced myself to just take the shot this morning and I just finished a healthy lunch.  Haven't been hungry at all and no urge to eat junk.  My stress level is higher than it has been in a while due to work and my daughter's dance recital practices all week so I am surprised that a craving hasn't kicked it!  I am enjoying the shakes and I was curious to see if I was losing anything so I weighed myself this morning.  I have lost 4 lbs since Sunday!!!  Super excited about that!  No more though.  I will only be weighing myself on Mondays......I could find myself disappointed if I sneak weigh ins like that in all the time :)  I will be on later tonight to post my before pics.  My hubby took them yesterday.  They are scary so don't judge!  Lol.

On Your Mark.......Get set......

I ordered my Isagenix the afternoon of April 26th.  I got a 30 day weight loss and cleanse system with both chocolate and vanilla shakes.  I have heard that they are both gross, and that they are both good.....I guess it depends on the person.  I wanted to try them out. 

My order was delivered to my door yesterday!  I was so excited.  It came super fast!!!

I plan on starting on May 1st.  I am attending a ladies night tomorrow night.  It is a costume dinner and dance and is always a ton of fun!  I want to eat and drink whatever I want but the next morning it is GAME ON!!!
 
I will post again on Sunday with a before pic (don't judge!) and my weight and measurements.  Wish me luck!

Decisions, Decisions....

I am a yo-yo dieter.  I work my ass off.....literally.......and then when I get to where I want to be, I blow it.  I stop doing what I am doing.  I am in it all or nothing.  If I screw up once, I say screw it all and totally give up.  It is the sad carousel of flab that has been my life for the last 10 years. 

I was thin in high school.  Once I hit 20, my weight started to climb.  I have successfully lost weight and then just as successfully gained it back.  It is my fault but it is the way it is.  I am currently the heaviest that I have ever been.  I am disgusted with myself and embarrased of the way I look.  It is beginning to affect my social life and it has been affecting my relationship for a long time.

I have a friend on facebook who has been doing the Isagenix Cleanse Program and posting her progress pics on her page.  She is looking more amazing every time she posts one and she has inspired me.  I have done a lot of research into Isagenix and after a month of trying to decide if the program was for me or not, I have decided to go for it!  What do I have to lose?  They have a money back gaurantee and from what I have found online, they are good to honour that.

Isagenix isn't cheap....my credit card needed to be paid down a bit so I haven't yet ordered it.  I made a huge payment through online banking and I am just waiting for it to be applied to my account and then I will be placing my order.  I am going to blog my entire journey.  I think it will be interesting to look back on and maybe it will inspire someone to work towards being healthy also.....who knows!!!
