Beginning a Weight LOSS Journey

Several months ago I went to visit my brother Darrin near Atlanta GA.  He lives in Hiram kind of near Alabama side.  My mom and I had decided to go up and spend time with him on our way to a week at a GA Mountain Cabin.  I am kind of her driver when she goes on long trips.  It is fine with me as I get to spend some one on one time with her and my brother Doug.   Well Dieting might have been the furthest thing from my mind but my brother Darrin had just discovered a new company venture with one of his pastors and friends at church.  He is always a skeptic about new things and has to try them out on his own before he dives in feet first.  For the past two months he had been trying what they call the "24 day Challenge"  with this company called AdvoCare.  He liked it so much and was so pleased with the results he continued on his challenge and is now well into the 80th day or beyond. 

Well when Darrin ventures into something he goes with his whole heart and really puts his compassion for whatever the cause may be.  He always wants to make things better for those around him.  One night after dinner he drags all the written pamphlets and product out and starts explaining to my mom and my self what the products are and what the do.  He was certain these products if I tried them would change my life.  As much as I hate to admit it he was right.  I have a ton of weight to loose and although I have tried diet after diet and thought I knew how to eat right ;  I soon found out that I really didn't know what was good and what was bad for me.  I knew I could make a choice.. Either try it and know whether it would work for me or not try and always wonder if it could have.  So even though I thought the product was expensive I did agree to try it and bought the products for the challenge.  He advised me to go ahead and enjoy vacation and then start when I returned home and the time was right.

I returned home on Mother's day and started my program the very next day.  Worried what a cleanse meant I expected to camp out in the bathroom for days.  Not So,  I was pleasantly pleased that the 10 day cleanse didn't make me feel like camping in the bathroom and the process was uneventful in the fact that I didn't poop my self!  Why should I do this?  The word cleanse really scared me at first but after watching a video of another Advocare distributor I understood.  Cleansing your system is alot like cleaning the dryer of the lint built up in it's lint trap.  In order for your body to be ready to accept the good nutrition you are going to offer it you must clean away the junk.

After my 10 day cleanse I had more energy felt more focused and yes way more lighter.  My skin hair and nails were healthier.  I focused on eating fresh fruits and veggies and also lean cuts of meat such as your boneless skinless chicken breast and various fish like Tuna Salmon and Tilapia,  Hard boiled eggs were also recommended. The clease takes you back and forth over 10 days of using or not using a fiber drink and herbal cleanse tablets.  You drink plenty of fresh water and I dropped coffee, bread, white flour and rice and potatoes,  Also Sugar.   Sugar is the culprit that causes that gutt and butt bloat. 

Instead of coffee I used a drink by Advocare called SPARK  hince my blog title the SPARKED GATOR  ( yes I am a FLORIDA GATOR fan).  Spark contains Caffeine but not the acid that is in coffee.  It helps with mental focus and energy.  The challenge bundle pack comes with 28 of these.  I also used a product called OmegaPlex which is your Omega 3 fatty acidsit helps with your heart and overall well being.  The Omega is made from Fish oils.  Taken with food it helps aid in digestion and making your system run better. 

During my cleanse alone (first 10 days )  I lost 10 pounds and also over 4 inches in my waist alone.  Was I happy I tried it?  YOu bet I was.  I had been bouncing around this same 10 pounds for 3 years and unable to get rid of it on numerous of other healthy eating plans.  Okay so the next 11- 24 days my brother calls alot like going to Disney World.  He said I would feel great after starting the MNS3 strip packs.  MNS stands for Metabolic Nutritional System.  My first day using them I did feel a burst of energy and I also started excercising 30 minutes a day.  I cannot do alot of high impact stuff because of a bum knee but working on in a pool at home was my weapon of choice.  The pool was a little chilly at first but I was determined to loose even more weight.  Even though the temp was a cool 62degrees; I managed to move around enough that I hardly noticed being cold.  The program only calls for 5days of workouts out of 7 but for the next 14 days I didn't miss a work out. 

After day 24 I measured and weighed myself again.  I was more than 13 pounds and had lost almost 20 inches from all over my body. Amazing.   Darrin was so right the product should be called GUTT and BUTT be gone!  Those are the two area I noticed the change in.  Who would not want to loose both of these.  Was the program hard?  Well if you are used to craving sweets and candies and such it can be a total Challenge.  It is not impossible though and I am proud of making it through and have continued my journey.  I am in day 35 now and have learned how to control my cravings and make smart choices in my eating.  This is a lifestyle change and eating healthier will be a way of life for me.  I hope to live longer and enjoy my children and grandchildren because of changing up the way I eat.  At day 35 I have lost almost 15 pounds now and feeling so great and wanting to get up and exercise.  Not only excercising in the pool but walking the block and even lifting weights.  I won't run a Marathon but I do feel much more alive and healthy and I have not asked my hubby to tie my shoes in a long time. 

I have started this blog to let people that have given up on controlling their weight and eating healthy to know I care and Advocare cares about them.  The company is in tune to helping people do two things.  1 getting healthy and 2 getting out of debt.  These are 2 things that are a growing problem in America today.  Many people out of work or loosing their jobs or hours but also the continued problem of Obesity.  I am proud to do business with a company that is trying hard to help with these 2 things.  If I can get you started in a healthier eating program or show you a way to make money let me know.

Here is my website access.... yes I am a distributor now.  Why wouldn't I be if I can earn a discount and keep myself healthy and make money  doing it?
