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!

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!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

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!!!!!!

Zumba!!

Since I've gotten my membership at 24 Hour Fitness I've been taking Zumba classes. My first class was with Tamika and some of the ladies had told me she was the best. But I still tried the other two instructors as well. Well, they were right. Tamika is definitely the best!!! Her classes have a moderation in dance types and is intense! You leave that class dripping with sweat!!! I LOVE it!!!!! 
I've learned a few things about Tamika. She has been featured in the 'O' Magazine!!!! OMG, right?! Also she used to be a cheerleader for the Sacamento Kings NBA Organization! Awesome huh?! 
I definitely suggest her classes! You will NOT regret it!!

On that note, I had convinced my husband to join me for 2 Zumba classes so far, and he loves it! So guys, Zumba is not just for girls!! My husband hasn't been the only man I've seen in our classes either. LOL! 

Cancelling Curves

:( UGH! My husband got a promotion, which is wonderful, but with the promotion his schedule had changed. With the new schedule and Curves hours I would've been able to go only on Saturdays. That's not worth the monthly charge to me. So, I cancelled Curves. Sadly! I really loved it there. The women were great, staff was nice, and loved the workouts! I had lost about 25 lbs there within only about 2.5 months!!! I do recommend it to anyone! If my husbands schedule happens to change again I might go back. Until then I will be working out at home, and next month I'm going to look into the 24 hour fitness. Mainly because they have day care so I could go anytime of the day, or even at night!!
I haven't been able to go to Curves for awhile now, and I've been feeling it. For awhile there I felt like I lost my drive. Which has made feel tired all the time again and irritable. I hate this feeling!!! Today I will get back on track!!!! I will be doing another workout when I lay down Kaysen for his nap. Which is in like 5 minutes lol! Wish me luck guys! I need to reach 200lbs!!!!!!

Please make sure to check out my AdvoCare site! I will be ordering more products for myself with our next check. Our products are great and helps keep me energized and motivated! I hadn't been able to buy any for the last couple of months due to us moving into our new home. I think that has to do with me losing my motivation to work out as well. So I will be buying some again soon and it will help so much! Can't wait!
