Day 35 - 136.1 LBS

I took these pictures today in a different suit that shows exactly where I need some work. Clearly, I need to beef up the exercise along with focusing on the product. I am still 136.1 Though! My goal is 120!!!

I took these pictures to show what I look like today at 136.1 in the same suit .

Day 24 - 136.3 lbs

I am back to reposting. I am not allowed to go out of town anymore because I gain weight!!! I did a straight shake day on Monday and then cleansed yesterday so I am back to 136.3. I never lost focus, I was just in situations out of my control.

I did swim yesterday morning, did 50 sit ups and 20 push ups!

Day 15 - 133.6 LBS!!!!!!

Here is the overview:
Saturday was a shake day but I made the mistake of not eating enough for lunch so I was hungry and snacked until dinner and then had an AWFUL salad at Crown Burger.

Sunday was a shake day and I wasn't even willing to get on the scale until Monday because of Saturday's eating. For lunch I had something small but then remembered that I was going to be having Sunday dinner with homemade rolls - pumpkin cake...... NOT GOOD.

Monday I weighed 138 after going swimming in the morning with Kammie. I decided I had again had enough so I did all shakes - no meals all day.

Tuesday I weighed 135.6 and did the cleanse juice all day with some apple slices, almonds and lots of water.

This morning I weighed 133.6 which is LOWER than I got in my family's contest. I ended the contest at 134.4!!! YEAH for me!

Start Weight 141.1
Today's Weight 138.5

Here's the story before I post my food.....I am TOTALLY focused and today sucked! I did started great and then did my lunch. Then, we did family pictures at Layton park until 6:30 and then the entire family decided to go to Olive Garden. I had decided if I had gotten down to a size 4 jean, that I would treat myself to Olive Garden but I never got around to going. Plus, since I didn't plan to go out to dinner and didn't bring a shake, I had to eat dinner too. I figure that I didn't gain too much for what I ate....a few too many breadsticks......

Breakfast - Shake - Ionix - Nat Acc
Lunch - Pulled Pork Sandwich - pasta salad
Dinner - Breadsticks (plural), salad, italian cream soda, eggplant parmesan, spaghetti and 2 mints
Bedtime - 2 IsaFlush

No exercise - I did get up at 5:15 am and went to Kammie's but she set her alarm wrong so she was not up......I drove home and went back to bed!!!

Cleansing tomorrow - then I am going to do all shakes on Thursday to make up for the 2 meals.

Day 7 - 137.6!!! YEAH!

Start Weight 141.1
Today's Weight 137.6 - down 2.48%

Breakfast - Shake - Ionix - Nat Accel
Snack - handful of peanuts
Lunch - 300 calorie Lean Cuisine - Nat Accel
2 hrs later - 240 calorie bowl of cereal
2 hrs later - snack - banana
Dinner - Shake

No exercise
I decided to try the metabolism boost thing in the afternoon by eating something every 2 hrs from lunch on that is why I didn't eat all 600 calories in one shot at lunch. It paid off even though I did a bowl of Lucky Charms!

Day 6 - 138.8 - Going Down!

Start Weight 141.1
Today's Weight 138.8

I did not want to gain again so I had a shake later in the morning, a mid afternoon snack and then moderate proportions for dinner.

Oct 15 - 136
Oct 22 - 133
Oct 29 - 130

Dec 10 - 124
Dec 17 - 122
Dec 24 - 120
My goal weight was set to 127 but I am getting to 120. This way, I can gain 7 lbs from Xmas to New Years and start Jan 1 at my goal weight for the contest! I have a new vision on life. Monday is a new day and the beginningof the rest of my life.

Day 5 - 138.1 OH NO!

Isagenix Shake Day Yesterday
Breakfast - IsaLean Shake - Ionix Supreme - Natural Accelerator - IsaFlush
Snack - None
Lunch - Ate a few bites of a Lean Cuisine and then remembered I was eating dinner - Drank an IsaLean shake then!
Snack - None
Dinner - 40th Anniversary Dinner at The Lion House - Too much food to list - great peice of a beautiful wedding/anniversary cake from Parson's Bakery!

Here is the testament to my advice to everyone - ONLY EAT DINNER AS YOUR MEAL IF NECESSARY BECAUSE YOU WILL GAIN THE NEXT MORNING! I keep telling everyone that if you eat your meal at lunch, your body has the time to work it off. If you eat your meal at dinner, you only have 3-4 hour max for your body to work it off. TRY, TRY, TRY to eat your meals at lunch. You will have much more success. Good luck to the scale for me tomorrow! I am trying to decide if I do a straight shake day today - Saturday!

Exercise - Ran for 10 minutes walked for 10 - did the Jog-A-Thon at my daughter's elementary school!

Day 4 137.1 AGAIN!

Starting Weight 141.1
Today's Weight 137.1 down 4 lbs or 2.83%

Isagenix Shake Day Yesterday

Breakfast - IsaLean Shake - Ionix Supreme - Natural Accelerator - IsaFlush
Snack - Isagenix Snack
Lunch - Costa Vida - smothered chicken burrito - not sure how many calories that was!
Snack - None - too full!
Dinner - CLEANSE for Life Juice! I knew if I drank a shake for dinner, I would gain so I drank cleanse and even after a huge lunch, I stayed the same. YEAH!

Kammie and I went swimming in the morning yesterday and swam about 3/4 mile! First exercise of the week! I am proud of myself!

I am nervous about tomorrow because it is my inlaws 40th anniversary dinner at the Lion House and even though I am going to be doing a shake for breakfast and lunch, I know I will be up tomorrow morning. SCARY!

Day 3 - 137.1

Start Weight 141.1
Today's Weight 137.1 - down 4 lbs! or 2.83%

Cleanse Day Yesterday
9:30 AM - Cleanse - Ionix - Nat Acc - Isaflush
11:00 AM - lettuce w/balsamic vinegar & 1/4 cup fat free cottage cheese
1:00 PM - Cleanse - Nat Acc - Isaflush
3:00 PM - Isagenix snacks
4:00 PM - Cleanse - I was struggling at this point
6:30 PM - made the family soft tacos so I had 5 bites
8:00 PM - didn't drink cleanse - wasn't feeling good - got the kids in bed
9:00 PM - went to bed - stomach aching/cramping/nausea
10:30 PM - tried some mac & cheese and a few chips & salsa........felt better in 20 mintues

I really don't know what that was all about. I have had those as cleansing symptoms in the past but this seemed different and normally they would have occurred in the mid afternoon. Maybe I am pregnant???!!! We are not trying but not preventing. It took me 3.5 years to get pregnant with our 2nd child who is 10 months so we figure we will let it ride.

I didn't exercise yesterday

Day 2 - 137.5!!!

Start Weight 141.2
Today's Weight 137.5 less 3.7 lbs or 2.62% YEAH!

Again....no exercise. My alarm did not go off to go swimming but diligent Kammie went on her own - she pulled up to my house at 5:15 am, the house was dark and she still went to the pool! AWESOME KAMMIE! My baby has been teething and slept through the night that night and so when my alarm didn't go off, I woke up around 5:45 am realizing I missed the alarm but that because I hadn't woken up all night, I hadn't moved therefore, pinched 2 nerves in my neck/upper back. Went to the chiropractor and he worked it out but it still hurts BAD! Hopefully swimming tomorrow morning will loosen it up. I am going to do sit ups, side bends, push ups and some chair sits today for my exercise.

TIP OF THE DAY - when you are having trouble getting used to not eating at night, get a 44 oz cup of water and add some crystal light so you have a sweet taste in your mouth that you can sip on for the last few hours of the evening.
