This is my newest progress picture! I still have long ways to go but I'm working at it. It makes me happy knowing that I'm getting healthier..which means I will be here longer for my kids! I can actually get myself out of the chair and go outside and play with them...even more..I actually WANT to go outside and play with them!!!! This can be you!! 

Ladies Alive Weekend-24 Day Challenge

Ladies Alive was amazing!!! I have to say it went far beyond my expectations! It was also very nice to have my two best friends there with me to enjoy the experience! It inspired me so much, AdvoCare is definitely our future.
I'm already planning on next year! :) I'm so excited that next year I will be inviting MANY MANY more women much earlier, get a few hotel rooms so we can all go!! I want all of my friends to be able to experience this with me! Even if they're not into the business because I know they will still enjoy their selves.

I wanted to share my most recent progress picture!! And both Amanda and Nicole's pictures before and after doing the 24 Day Challenge. I promise it will change your life!!!

Nicole lost 5.6lbs and 17inches!

Amanda lost 16lbs!!!!!!!

This is not my challenge photos, it's just my progress so far!! I have lost a total of 39lbs so far!

Ladies Alive

I am SO excited that this weekend is Ladies Alive!!!!!!!!!!
I have been waiting for this weekend for awhile now. All us ladies get a weekend away, how exciting is that?! We will be staying at the Hilton Hotel YAY!
My very good friend Nicole(TaTa) will be coming with me, and my very good friend Amanda will be flying in to come as well! I am so happy to spend this weekend with these two wonderful ladies!

Remember, I do have spots in our room open if you want to join!! Just let me know!!

YAY!!

Me in a dress?! What?!

YEP! This is the first time I've been in a dress since my wedding..that's 3 years ago!!! Thanks to all my hard work, AdvoCare products and the support of all my friends and family I am down 34.6lbs! I still have a ways to go before I hit my goal though, but I know I can do it!!! 

My goal is to lose 43.8 lbs before that ball drops on New Years Day!!!!!!! :) You think I can do it?! 

I love challenging myself and I would love it if someone joined me in this weight loss! Let's do this together!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's Going Well...

I am on day 14 of the 24 Day Challenge and it's been going well! I have been feeling much better and healthier! I can't wait until the 25th day so I can finally remeasure and reweigh myself!!!! 

Since Aidyn has been sick I haven't been able to get to the gym in over a week! Which totally sucks! But last night my Zumba instructor Tamika had thrown a Zumba Jam, and my husband was home in time for me to go! I was so excited! But, I should've known better lol! After not working out for a week, doing 2 hours straight of Zumba was exhausting!!! I really don't know how I made it through the whole thing! I woke up this morning in so much pain! I started walking and looked like an old lady haha! 

I have this problem of trying to fall asleep, and once I do I toss and turn ALL night long! I finally bought some SleepWorks from AdvoCare and it worked like a charm!! I fell asleep so quickly!! Then I slept like a baby and woke up all rested! It was awesome!!!! I suggest all the people who have trouble sleeping get some now!! lol!

24 Day Challenge

Nicole and I have started our 24 Day Challenge with AdvoCare! We are on day 2! I am super excited to see how this changes our lives!! After we're done I will be posting our stats and our before/after pictures. So please stay tuned to see those! I won't be weighing my self at all until day 25 lol! I want to be shocked when I see that scale! 

Marc had finished the Herbal Cleanse couple of days ago and he had lost 4.5lbs! He also lost a pant size! He is so excited and so happy about that! I am so proud of him! :) Ever since he has been eating a lot healthier and smaller portions. Can you believe that?! I was shocked at first myself! My husband-before the Cleanse- could EAT EAT EAT! LOL! But nope, he started the Cleanse and got himself on a healthier diet. Gah words can't explain how proud I am of him! :) 
Because of that it's been a lot easier to make sure I'm sticking to my healthy eating as well. It was really hard beforehand because he'd be bringing home Sonic milk shakes for him and the kids and drink them in front of me lol! But now he doesn't even want anything like that! So that really helps!! I am also glad it means our family is becoming much more healthier! 

Usually for morning I'd eat a bowl of cereal because I was too lazy to actually get up and make anything--plus I was never sure what to make! But today I got up and made us veggie omelettes! It was my first time ever to make an omelette so I was nervous but they came out great!! And they were yummy! My husband left for work on a full tummy and smiling! Made me so happy I could do that for him! I know cereal never really filled him up lol! 

Ok, that's it for now. 

I would REALLY love to see some more of my friends get on the 24 Day Challenge! It will change your lives! You don't have to get on a strict diet, you don't have to eat less, just eat healthier! That's all! And drink lots of water lol! I know ya'll can do this! Also I will be here to help along the way. You need advice, need help, even need reminders I am here!!! Heck I text Nicole daily to make sure everything's going great(she asked me too lol)! I can do that for u too! 
If you're interested just let me know!!! 

More News!!

Marc had finally decided to take the Herbal Cleanse from AdvoCare! He is on day 5 and has lost 3lbs! He hasn't even been working out either due to us being very busy lately lol! I am very proud of him! I am so glad this is working for him. I know it's important for him to clean out his body so when he starts taking different products they will work even better for him! 

My two good friends Amanda and Nicole have decided to join me in the 24 Day Challenge after we get paid this next week!!! I am SOOOOO happy and proud of them for making this decision! They will NOT regret it! It will bring them such happiness and make them feel so much better about themselves. 

I challenge YOU to take the 24 Day Challenge!!!

HOLY COW!

You see that pic up there^^^? Yep, that's my clothing! Pretty much my whole closet at that. Since I have lost 30lbs I've been wearing shirts that hang loose and no one could tell I had lost anything and pants that kept falling down! Even my workout pants would start sliding down during Zumba class! So today I decided to go through my closet and get rid of all my BIG clothes! People say NEVER keep your fat clothes cuz then you'll subconsciously think it's ok if you get fat again cuz you'll still have your clothes. Well not me! I am getting rid of them! The only fat clothing I kept were like 2 big shirts to wear around the house on my lazy days! HAHA! You always gotta have something for those lazy days! 

Now I need to figure out what to wear til I can get more clothes. LOL! I'll probably go to the thrift store because I don't want to spend lots of money on clothing that won't last long on me. Especially since I'm about to do the 24 day challenge from AdvoCare! I know I'll be losing more!! 

I'm still 48lbs away from my goal weight and I WILL make it there soon!! I need to set a goal date as well. Hmm...You guys think I can lose 48lbs before 2013 starts?! I bet I can! That's my goal! 

I WILL lose 48lbs BEFORE New Years Day!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Things are Looking Up!

Marc and I have been working a lot harder on selling AdvoCare and I think it will definitely pay off! I've gotten quite a few people very interested in getting products! Tomorrow I get to go to my first mixer! I am so excited! In November I'm going for an event in Grapevine called AdvoCare Ladies Alive 2012! It's ladies only..for a weekend! It's gonna be so much fun!! I'm glad Marc supports me going. He actually pushed me into buying my ticket lol! Can't wait!!

Everyone!! On the 10th I'll be ordering my 24 Day Challenge with AdvoCare! It's a great way to jump start your weight loss! Many people have gotten AMAZING results so I can't wait to get started! I am encouraging my friends and family to join me in this amazing opportunity! If you would like to purchase the challenge let me know and I will order one for you! 
We can all measure and weigh ourselves and take BEFORE pictures together! Then start the challenge together so we can support each other throughout the challenge. Then at the end measure and weigh ourselves again and take AFTER pictures! It'd be great to see what results we get! 

Let me know if you want to join in!!!!

School Starts Soon

Yep, my baby starts 1st grade on Monday. So excited yet so sad. I can't believe he is growing up so fast! He is super excited but keeps saying he's going to miss me too much. Aww!! Melts my heart! Last year my husband was the parent that got up every morning to get him ready and drop him off at school. Even though he could still do it this year I decided since Kaysen is older and I have a membership at 24 Hour Fitness it would be great for me to do it this year! YAY! So every day I will be getting up EARLY(anyone who knows me well will tell ya I am NOT a morning person haha), getting myself and both boys dressed, feed everyone, drop Aidyn off at school then head over to the gym with Kaysen to get my daily workout done! I'm actually anxious to start this new schedule! :) I think it will be great for all of us. 

On another note, AdvoCare is really starting to pick up for us. No we haven't sold anything yet but we started speaking with one of our advisors and they have been helping us greatly! They will be helping us talk to some people(potential customers and potential distributors). We are so excited to finally really get started with this! If you're interested in becoming a distributor please let me know! We can all start making money together! I do know that the advisor that is helping us is making quite a bit! So that gives us the motivation we need! :)

Update on Weight Loss

Yep, that's me. Four months later I am down 30lbs! I did skip a month(so I guess this is 3 months later), which I regret now, but I am proud of myself! I have been eating healthy, exercising, and taking AdvoCare. I still have 48lbs to go until I hit my goal weight. Just wait, it'll totally happen! I can' wait! But I just gotta take it day by day. It's a lot of hard work. Just thought I'd post this so everyone can see. Yes it takes time to get there, don't give up!!!!!!

Busy Busy Day

Today has been so, yep you guessed it, BUSY! I was running errands from 11-3, then had to put up groceries, clean the house and pay bills. Now I need to get beautified and cook dinner since I have guests coming over in about 30 minutes! WOW! Hectic right? The best thing is that Aidyn, my oldest, was very polite and well behaved ALL day! I am so proud of him. I just ordered some more AdvoCare products! Ready to get this weight loss back under control! :)
Tomorrow we will be going to the Dallas Farmers Market! Never been and heard it was great! I can't wait to buy some fresh produce! It's always yummier when it's locally grown. Then tomorrow night is...ta da da da...DATE NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!!! It seems like forever since husband and I have had a night to just ourselves! :)
Thought I'd update a little, but I gotta go. Like I said, BUSY DAY! 

24 Hour Fitness

Since I have cancelled Curves, my husband and I joined 24 hour fitness here in Cedar Hill. And we love it! We have been doing cardio, weights, and classes! Today I will be joining their Zumba class! So excited!!!
The best part is they have a Kids Club so I have somewhere to take the kids while I work out. YAY! I really need a workout partner though. I don't get to go very often with Marc so I need someone to come with me!
Today I drank some Slam from AdvoCare and it has me going! I am so energized!!! Also it's YUMMY! Go buy some!

Stepping Up

I am stepping up my game. Making sure I am eating completely healthy again(not just partially) and getting back to my Curves workouts! I forgot how great it feels to workout. I feel more refreshed and energized. For awhile there I was starting to feel lazy again and just so tired. Glad to be out of that rut! I went to Curves the last two nights but I plan on going to Zumba class again tonight. Hopefully my friend will want to, if not it's back to Curves. Either way I will be working out. :) I really need to buy more AdvoCare products. Just haven't had the money to lately but I we will soon. AdvoCare was helping me a lot!! 

The House

I apologize for my absence. The move was pretty stressful considering we needed to get some things into working order before we could move in. And some things had to wait til after we were moved in. But everythings good now. We are officially moved into our new house! So exciting!!!!!!! We still have lots of cosmetic work that needs to be done but I don't think it'll take us more than a year to get everything done(thats inside AND outside). We are so excited to finally have a home of our own! 
I want to thank all the people that helped us! :) Our good friends Richard, Jenifer, my wonderful mother, and of course my awesome Aunt who gave us the opportunity!


Update:
I have lost 22 lbs since I started my weight loss! YAY!

YES!!!

Again, didn't get official weigh in..starting to think it's not going to happen! Thankfully we move later this month so hopefully the Curves I'll be going to there will do things better. But anyways, I weighed myself on the Curves scale this morning when I got there. It says since I started on March 27, I have lost 14.2lbs!!!! :) That makes me SO happy!!!! Seeing I'm losing more has just motivated me to keep going!!


About AdvoCare: I have finally tried the Slam energy drink. I love it! I have been getting things done today! I'm about to go to my site and order some MNS Max 3! 
Go to my site to get yours!!!! :)

Day 10: Herbal Cleanse by AdvoCare

I am DONE! I took the last of the pills and fiber drink this morning! I am so happy that I have achieved getting through the whole cleanse. Don't get me wrong, it's not very hard, it just takes dedication. I have lost 2.5lbs since doing the cleanse. It has also made me feel better! Healthier! I recommend it to everyone! They also give you this chart(below) so you can keep up with it and you won't forget anything. It helped a LOT! 

More Weight Loss

I get my official weigh in at Curves tomorrow! I am so excited and so anxious! I weighed myself this morning here at home and it says I have lost 12 lbs since I first started trying. I really hope that's what Curves scales say..maybe even less! I take a picture of myself once a month(so far I only have 2 pictures). I know I felt like I was losing weight but I didn't think I looked like I was, but when I saw my first picture compared to my second I was like..WHOA! It's not a major difference but there's definitely a difference!!! I am going to add those pictures here below..but I will say beforehand that I am very self conscious and VERY nervous about posting these pictures. They're pretty embarrassing. So please, understand that I am trying to better myself and maybe that'll keep yourself from laughing at my expense. I started exercising March 27th but didn't think to take my first photo til April 3rd. Every month I will take a new picture and have it compared to the first one so you can see my progress.

Day 8: Herbal Cleanse by AdvoCare

It has been going pretty well. I had 4 days that I didn't have to drink the fiber drink, but I had to drink it again today. Also for the next 2 days. But it's not so bad anymore! I only have 2 more days of this! YAY! I do feel lighter and more energized. Oddly I feel more clean, if that makes any sense.
