So today ends week six on Isagenix. I can tell you that since week five I've felt ALIVE. The first month was really just detoxing my system. Since week five, I've just felt amazing. Like I'm back to my pre-kids state.
Not a walking zombie, feeling gross ( even when eating well )..
I think the biggest thing for me is that Isagenix is teaching me to love my body, regardless what it looks like. I'm putting the best possible nutrition into my body and that in it self should be loved.
It's also teaching me to celebrate crap food or as we like to call it "joy food". Any "diet" that you're on will fail. This is a lifestyle and it teaches you control and that 10% of the time you're allowed that extra cheesy, extra saucy burger. It's not about saying no all the time. It's about being good to yourself but treating yourself out. I think that's what a lot of systems and diets wont teach you. That's why they don't work.
I've just felt so much more alive, can I say that again? Well, it's true. Isagenix is really working through my thought process and really creating positive thoughts. Of course when your body feels toxic your mind is going to exude toxic waste too... at least, this is how it was for me before.
I'm so excited to order my third month on Isagenix on the 25th. Of course, I'm not still on the cleanse, but these are products that I've ordered for my family and myself this next order.
-Energy Bars ( which really taste like a amazing chocolate bar, packed full of protein and nutrience )
-Energix ( flavored juice crystals that REALLY pump up the energy without the crap and aspertain and chemicals...
-Ionix ( can't make it through the day without this amazing energy packed drink. Not only does it help reduce stress but it also helps you sleep better among many other things.
-Shakes ( I've not ordered any this time as we have about 8 canisters in our cupboards that the four of us share )
So those are just a FEW of the products I've ordered this time.. Very excited to get my order. As mentioned above, some days I'm doing two shakes and other days I'm doing one shake. It depends. But it doesn't matter. Because Isagenix is teaching me the fundamentals for having a healthy lifestyle. Not just a quick weight loss or a diet that WILL fail. I take the cleanse drink every night before bed, and of course the Ionix twice a day.
This is the best choice I could of made for my body and I'm so glad I got forced into it, by my amazing mother. Who, has now lost 29 pounds and over 60 inches! WOOHOO....What a amazing lady!!!
I've lost over 30 inches now, so I'm pretty proud of that number! I feel healthy and amazing now, imagine how I'll feel in another six months!

30 Days on Isagenix ( 30 Day Cleanse ) Review. Good & Bad.
So this post will be brutally honest and will give you a unbiased view of this product.
My mom started on Isagenix the beginning of October and kept pestering me to join. I was skeptical because not only did I feel that it was a lot of money, but I felt it was just another shake company. There are so many shake companies out there, and I just felt I could achieve the same results by eating clean.
Let me just back petal and tell you all why I eat. I eat to numb myself, to comfort myself. I eat when I want to celebrate or have fun. I eat when I'm sad or angry... YES, I'm a emotional eater. I love food, I love cooking and baking. I love everything about food.
I needed to break this cycle especially because I've been through so much and feel so damaged.
My mom really kept bothering me, and I kept telling her I didn't have the money. Of course we had money, but I just didn't feel like some packaged formula could cure me. I wanted to spend the money on whole organic foods.
But you can't get all your daily needs from just eating organic and whole foods.
On January 30th, while I was puking my body up from the flu ( that lasted a week ), my mom decided to just order me a 30 day system, in which I paid her back... but that's what it took. Her ordering me the system without me having a say.
Needless to say, I'm done my 30 days, and I've lost 3.2 pounds and 25.25 inches!Also, my umbilical hernia has gotten smaller. This is a HUGE one for me because the doctors wanted to operate on me, and I refused because I want to have another baby... but in order to have a baby, I need to get rid of it. Tricky situation! For those who don't know, I got my umbilical hernia half way through my pregnancy with Cai, and was put on bed rest at 26 weeks. Very painful.
How it's worked for me:
It has given me more energy, I've obviously lost a crap load of inches, I've been sleeping better.
What I've yet to see ( I'm doing a second month ):
I've been quite stressed. The first two weeks started out great, then hubby's crew all got layed off for over two weeks of work.. and went downhill from there. My skin has been breaking out, bad, I'm thinking it's because it's casting toxins out.. I've been more depressed this month. Again, I'm not sure if that's from the two weeks of having a husband layed off and not knowing where money is coming from, or having the flu at the beginning and end of the month which both lasted a week each...
Then again, I sit here and wonder how I would of reacted to the husband being layed off for two weeks and getting the flu a week after that. Glen keeps saying I was pretty calm.
I'm going into a 2nd month of Isagenix and I have great hopes for it. It was tricky starting Isagenix in January because every year I seem to get the Christmas blues, bad.. as well as having not much family or friends near me, I just feel so isolated. Combined with all the sickness and money issues last month. EKKK. I'm surprised I've done as well as I did... Imagine how well I'll do on a good month?
Here are my goals for February 2013.
-To find happiness in God rather than food.
-To start up Pilates again ( So calming )
-To celebrate the joy food, and not beat myself up
-To realize this is a lifestyle, NOT just a quick weight/inch loss.
I'll once again update you after the 60 days... but I've a feeling I'll have AMAZING results.
I mean, look, I already gained a ton of energy and lost so many inches... Can you imagine would will happen in 60 days?
Please contact me if interested, it is changing my life is more way than one.
