The details of The Ultimate Body Applicator....
 (Those Crazy Wrap Things!)

 
Here is all the information on Those Crazy Wrap Things!
How they work, what they do and how to order them!
 
How does this work?…
Basically you will want to keep wrapping until you get to where your happy with yourself and your results. If you wrap until where you’d like to be and then from that point on continue to eat healthy, and drink lots of water, then you will maintain your results. But as soon as you get where you’d like, it doesn’t mean you can go on a food binge and eat anything you’d like. It’s kind of like going to the gym and maintaining it. =) It helps detoxify your body and help tighten and firm your skin.

The “science” behind The Wrap and exactly how it works.

Here is how it breaks down… (Remember, the ingredients in the wrap are all natural, plant extracts and botanicals, very healthy “food” for your skin and deeper tissues.)

A. The ingredients promote… Lipolysis. This literally means “fat-breaking”. The plant extracts and botanicals get into the fat cell and chop up the large fat molecules into little ones, which are now allowed to leave the cell. They are then burned up as energy somewhere else in the body, which is one reason why we want you to be well hydrated while you are using the applicators. This will help circulate the little fat molecules that are being released. This is HUGE and very important to know because the applicators (Body Wraps) are literally promoting FAT LOSS during this process!

B. The ingredients also release toxins from the fat cell. A major function of fat cells is to store toxins, so if we can release toxins, then we can achieve a shrinking of the fat cell.

C. The ingredients improve the microcirculation of the area being applied to. This is what creates some of that tightening, firming and toning effect. Fat tissue requires a great deal of blood vessels and such; if we can improve the microcirculation then we can improve the overall health of the area.

D. They have an anti-inflammatory effect. Fat tissue is terribly inflamed because of all the toxins and such. Again, we get tightening, firming and toning because we’ve increased the overall health of the area applied and reduce the inflammation of the skin.
Basically, the ingredients in The Ultimate Applicator promote Lipolysis, they detoxify the cell, they improve microcirculation, and they reduce inflammation… side effects are typically inch loss!
Remember that it takes years to put weight on and years of abuse to our bodies. Just like going to the gym, the weight is not going to magically fall off, it takes time. A typical treatment is 4 wraps, which is how the wraps come, in a box of four. Or you can buy them individually from me for $30 each, or $25 if your buying multiple. Everyone’s body is different and everyone see’s different results. Could be tighter skin, softer skin, firmer skin, inch loss etc. Same effects as working out. =)
It’s a must to get toxins out of your body in order to get healthy and being that our wraps are all natural ingredients, they are good for you and work from the outside in. You will flush toxins through your digestive system. You’ll pee more, you’ll have darker stool, which is great, then you know your removing toxins. You will feel refreshed and overall much better! =)

Wait….tell me the breakdown of the ingredients and what they actually do for you...

Glucose is a carbohydrate, and is the most important simple sugar in human metabolism. When oxidized in the body it produces carbon dioxide, water, and some nitrogen compounds and provides energy which can be used by the cells. The energy yield can be used to do work or help keep the body warm.

Caprylic Capric Triglycerides are a specific fraction of coconut oil fatty acids resulting in only the more stable, and skin loving, caprylic & capric fatty acids which gives the oil a dry, powdery feel. They are specially processed to achieve superior oxidative stability and low color and then are further refined to remove residual fatty acids, resulting in a product with essentially no odor or flavor. The unique metabolic and functional properties of MCT’s, a consequence of their chemical structure, make them versatile ingredients in numerous Pharmaceutical and Cosmetic applications. MCT’s, were developed over fifty years ago as an energy source for patients with fat malabsorption syndrome and they still find use in medical nutritional products. Due to their low viscosity and excellent oxidative stability, , MCT’s, are efficient solvents and therefore act as carriers for fat-soluble vitamins and actives. Their emollient properties enable Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, MCT’s, to improve the aesthetics of topical products while functioning as a component of the delivery system.

Glycerin is a humectant, meaning it attracts moisture to your skin. Alcohol Denatured is widely used on the skin as a disinfectant.

Stearic Acid in general these fatty acids are used in the production of hormones that regulate a variety of functions, including blood pressure, blood clotting and immune response.

Stearyl Alcohol is a fatty alcohol that generally is not damaging to the skin, unlike other chemical-based alcohols. Fatty alcohols can, in fact, be quite beneficial for the skin and are excellent moisturizers. It is derived from coconut oil. In skincare products, it functions as an emulsifier and an emollient. Emulsifiers binds the liquid together in the product and the emoliant softens the skin, by enhancing the skincare’s moisturizing properties as a humectant, which allows water to bind to the skin.
Ceteareth 12 is used as an emulsifier and a thickening agent.
Horse Chestnut Seed Extract is used to treat chronic venous insufficiency (a condition in which the veins do not efficiently return blood from the legs to the heart). This condition is associated with varicose veins, pain, ankle swelling, feelings of heaviness, itching, and nighttime leg cramping. The seed extract has also been used for hemorrhoids. Urea Physicians can use urea levels to detect diseases and disorders that affect the kidneys, such as acute kidney failure or end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Centella asiatica Leaf Extract Summing up the benefits of Centella asiatica is difficult, as there are so many, but in short it is wonderful when used to boost circulation, improve the collagen foundation of the skin, and fight oxidation – thereby making it a superb ingredient for anti-ageing skin care products as well as improving skin firmness and elasticity.

Camellia sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract The tannins interact with proteins and are astringent and also have antioxidant activity. One of the polyphenols in green tea – Epigallocatechin galate (EGCC) is thought to be 200 times more powerful than vitamin E for neutralizing free radicals. Since free radicals can attack and damage the DNA of the cells, the antioxidant effect of green tea has a protective role to play as well, since it prevents free radical damage and possible skin tumors and cancers and can be used in confidence as an anti-aging ingredient in skin care preparations. It has also been showed that the EGCC in green tea is effectively absorbed via the skin. Green tea is a potent anti-inflammatory agent thereby reducing inflammation in the skin, and most importantly having an inhibitory action on collagenase, which is a collagen-reducing enzyme that breaks down collagen. Since green tea helps to inhibit collagenase, the topical use of green tea helps to promote the health and quantity of collagen, thereby maintaining a firm and elastic skin. The flavonoids and catechols in green tea provide it with vitamin P its chemical composition give it astringent properties, whereas the polyphenolic compounds also act as an astringent, but also protect the skin. The Methylxanthines contained in green tea also stimulates skin microcirculation and therefore positively influence the tone and health of the skin. Green tea also exhibits a photo protective effect when applied to the skin and reduces erythema formation. In some studies it also showed that polyphenols found in green tea limited cell death when exposed to radiation, thereby showing that these polyphenols have a cell-protecting function as well.

Fucus vesiculosus Bladderwrack The use of the herb has been for the stimulation of the thyroid gland as a treatment for obesity and cellulite. The high iodine content of the herb stimulates thyroid function which boosts metabolism. It has a reputation in the relief of rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis and may be used both internally and as an external application for inflamed joints.

Hedera helix Ivy Leaf Extract This plant has great anti-fungal, anthelmintic, molluscicidal, anti-mutagenic as well as cellulite control properties extract contains Hederin (Hederine), an active saponin which is responsible for blood vessel protection and permeability decrease. Ivy further helps to reabsorb the edemas present in the initial stages of cellulite. It has a great application in cosmetics as a cellulitic agent due to its properties as an anti-inflammatory and pain killers. A major action of this herb is that of a circulatory compound which assists other components to be absorbed by the skin, whilst also helping to remove waste products and fatty build-ups from the tissue and helps release fatty deposits from the cells.

Horsetail Leaf/Stem Extract is high in vegetal silica and has diuretic, astringent and wound healing properties REF 45 and is useful for improving circulation, as well as boosting and rejuvenating the connective tissue – the foundation of your skin and regenerating skin cells.The high silica content also has a softening and smoothing effect on the skin.

Butchers Broom Root Extract is claimed to be helpful in treating arthritis, hemorrhoids, leg edema, peripheral vascular disease, and varicose veins. It has also been used as a diuretic and a laxative.

Guarana Seed Extract releases it’s caffeine gradually causing sustained energy over a long period of time. Other benefits discovered are increased mental sharpness , and enhanced long-term memory. Traditionally, it has been used for headaches and migraines. It is also used as an antibacterial agent.
Jojoba Seed Oil contains such microelements and nutrients as zinc, copper, silicon, iodine, chromium, Vitamins E and B group, acids and other natural ingredients. When used externally, this natural product allows us enjoy its antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing and soothing properties.
Decyl Oleate act as lubricants on the skin surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance. These ingredients also form a thin film on the skin that is neither greasy nor tacky. The unique properties of Decyl Oleate facilitate the application and removal of makeup.

Magnesium Aluminum Silicate Many silicates occur naturally and are mined; others are produced synthetically. The common aspect of all these clay-like ingredients is that they contain silicon, oxygen, and one or more metals. All silicates, especially the clays, have a great ability to absorb water.
Glyceryl Stearate acts as a lubricant on the skin’s surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance. It also slows the loss of water from the skin by forming a barrier on the skin’s surface.

PEG 7 Glyceryl Cocoate is an emollient surfactant, foamer and skin conditioner.

Tocopheryl Acetate or more commonly known as Vitamin E, is a natural preservative, anti-oxidant and moisturizer. It reduces trans-dermal water loss and helps maintain connective tissue. It is effective as a natural defense against harmful UV rays, preventing hyper-pigmentation and sun damage.

TEA-Hydroiodide is an iodine compound which has lypolytic properties. It also stimulates the metabolism, clearing excess fluids.

Methylsilanol Mannuronate is an organic derivative of seaweed that binds moisture in the epidermis therefore firming and strengthening the skin. has long-lasting moisturizing properties that help combat the deterioration of collagen and elastin fibers, giving it skin firming properties; it is also known to fight free radicals. Also known to act as an anti-oxidant to actively prevent premature aging. In vitro studies have shown that MM normalizes cellular metabolism, is a tissue regenerator and aids in the reduction of cellulite. Seaweed has also been shown to have detoxifying properties.
Menthol produces the sensation of temperature change.

Camphor stimulates the heart, breathing pattern, and blood circulation. Is effective in cases of hypotension or low blood pressure. Helps in clearing of congested lungs, making us breathe easier. Heats or cools our body according to our body’s needs. Has been also found effective in treatment of arthritis, muscle aches.

Panthenol is a derivative of vitamin B5 and is sometimes advertised as pro-vitamin B. It penetrates deep into the layers of the skin and keeps natural moisture there. It can help skin to stay healthy by stabilizing the skin’s metabolism. Panthenol can aid in evening your skin tone by stimulating skin pigment formation. Skin creams with panthenol in them lubricate the skin and can help make it look soft and smooth.

Phenoxyethanol the molecule is most commonly used in the field of medicine known as dermatology. It has properties that make it useful for skin protection as well as providing healing factors.

Retinyl Palmitate is Vitamin A which is known for its anti-aging applications.

Triethanolamine used primarily as an emulsifier and surfactant.

Carbomer a rich cream that holds it shape. If you look at an ingredient list, if you see carbomer listed you will almost always see either sodium hydroxide or triethanolamine listed as well. These are neutralising agents used to neutralise the carbomer.

Rosmarinus or Rosemary Leaf Oil has analgesic, astringent, diuretic, rubefacient, stimulant and tonic therapeutic properties in skincare.

Eucalyptus Leaf Oil has a cleansing effect on the skin and reduces redness and irritation. It is reputed to aid in wound healing and is antiseptic and anti-parasitic.

Caprylyl Glycol is a mild humectant and skin emollient with a unique skin feel. Additionally, it can contribute to the antimicrobial stability of cosmetics formulations and improves efficacy of traditional cosmetic preservatives. Glycols are known to be antimicrobial and show antimicrobial efficacy against typical germs found in cosmetic formulations. Soluble in glycols and alcohols, to increase solubility in water propylene glycol, emulsifiers or surfactants are necessary.

Sorbic Acid used to kill microorganisms, or prevent or retard their growth and reproduction, and thus protect cosmetics and personal care products from spoilage.

BHT acts as an antioxidant by preventing or slowing the deterioration of cosmetics and personal care products caused by chemical reactions with oxygen.

Limonene readily oxidizes when in contact with air. The oxidized form of d-limonene is a known skin sensitizer.

Some products I have recently added to my daily routine and the difference I notice.

I add supplements one at a time because I am in tuned enough with my body to know what works and what doesn't, if they make me feel sick or better!

In the past few weeks I added Greens and I recommend them for a few reasons. First of all it is 8 servings of fruits and veggies in each serving, second while it has a citrus smell, it has little taste. I add mine to 8 ozof water. Third...it alkalizes your system enabling you to fight colds and disease. Fourth...I am less hungry using it! I Find I am no longer thinking about my next meal while I am still eating the one before.



Then I tried Ultimate Thermo Fit

I liked that it had no after taste and it didn't give me the shakes like most thermogenics do.
I wasn't thinking about the fact that because I am in a stage of menopause it brought my hot flashes back. So I only took it for a few days. I recommend this for men or women not in menopause. I have used many thermogenic products over the years and most will make you shaky and even give you stress headaches, this does not do that. It will speed up your metabolism, giving you more energy and assisting in weight loss.

I added Fat Fighters to my regime a few days ago.
So far I love this product. No after taste and you can carry themwith you and take them up to an hour after a meal. They block a percentage of fat and carbs from your meals from being processed into your system. Because of this they also help balance blood sugar. One thing I notice is I am going to the bathroom a bit more....cleaning your body of toxins is a good thing!





Another before and after with Those Crazy Wrap Things...

Network Marketing

I've been involved with several network marketing companies in my life and I love that type of sales for many reasons. First of all if you aren't helping others you don't succeed! I know that some people don't understand the concept, they call it a pyramid scheme (frankly working any job where you cannot promote past your boss if you have the drive and desire to work harder and smarter is what I call a pyramid!) With network marketing you can do better than the person who recruits you and then some!

I love being involved with It Works! Global for many reasons. Their products are fabulous and their pay plan is terrific. I have never sold anything this easy to sell! People buy my samples right out of my purse in public all the time. With other companies you are giving samples away or investing in products for them to try and the only form of payment to you as a distributor is when they place an order.

I haven't hit the first pay period of being in this business and I have sold 14 wraps, gotten 120.00 bonus in products and also rewards that allow me to buy more product for less.  (didn't have to wait to get a bonus after I jumped through hoops and reached a certain level of criteria and then wait again until the pay period)
I have never seen a company that allows you to make money immediately like this! So this makes it easier for those coming into this business who don't have any income currently.

If anyone has any desire to make an income where the sky really is the limit with a product that sells itself
I'm happy to help you get started!

Why Be Healthy

A wonderful woman in my life didn't eat right, smoked 4 packs of cigarettes a day and lived on Diet Caffeine Free Pepsi....she never drank water.
As I watched her age... at age 50 she stood up from a chair and broke her hip. This was the beginning of seeing the damage she had done to her body. She had been told for years to change her diet and exercise but of course if "we think we feel OK"... we don't listen.
Before this happened she never felt great, didn't act young like I do now at almost 49 years old.
She was on many medications because doctors must know everything...right?
After she broke her hip they put a pin in it. She found out a few years later when she was addicted to pain pills that it never healed. It was never going to heal because she had severe osteoporosis. Now lets add more medication. Within a couple years of the hip breaking she used a walker to get around and in only a few more years to come had a hospital bed in the living room and thats where she spent her years until the last she spent in a nursing home. When I tried to give her advice she thought it was vain to take care of yourself I like I did at my young age.
I am talking about my mother.
The fact that she lived to be 72 tells me internally she had a lot to work with and could have been very healthy.
So when you consider the choices of prevention....vitamins, non GMO food and simple steps to keep you operating at maximum capacity or decades of pain and suffering and virtually no quality of life....what will it be?
The good news is if you have done damage from smoking and a life of eating wrong you can reverse much of it.  Our bodies are miraculous in that they repair themselves if they are fed the right fuel.
I am happy to assist anyone on a program of wellness.
Consult a Dr. before you begin any program, but word to the wise....you may want to know how healthy your doctor is first!
Doctors make money giving your prescriptions, most prescriptions will not make you well, they will make you require more....PRESCRIPTIONS!

Love yourself enough to take care of yourself!

One product I recommend after age 30

My Diet

I decided to share my diet experience with you for 2 reasons. 1. Accountability! and 2. We can both learn from the process.

The word diet has a negative connotation almost like you are punishing yourself, but what it really means is lifestyle. Your diet is what you eat daily, when people say they are on a diet we know they are trying to lose weight, but in fact we are all always on a diet be it good or bad.

I have lost and gained the same 10 lbs many times in the last few years. This is bad because everytime you lose weight and gain it back you increase the level of fat in your fat cells. We do not gain new fat cells after about the age of 18-20 but they can hypertrophy. This is what I have done to myself in gaining the weight back over and over.
I also notice at my age (48) I do not lose weight like I used to. It is more or a struggle as we age and it is for many reasons. It can be lack of activity, muscle loss as we age, menopause, and blood sugar issues.
For me it is all of the above.
The good news is we can fix these things!
How? Get more active, workout with cardio and weights to gain some muscle back, eat right to combat blood sugar issues. Menopause is a topic for its own page!

Day 1
I am starting my new lifestyle today May 13, 2013 with you as my witness that this time I will stick it out.
My weight...I cringe as I say I weigh what I weighed giving birth to each of my children. 153 lbs.
I have gotten down to 140 a couple times and then reward myself....getting carbs back in my body and making myself crave them, so I slowly gain it back.
My goal is to lose 20 lbs and tone my body with some workouts.

I like using ideas from The South Beach Diet. It was prescribed to me by my doctor when I found I had a blood sugar problem. (Pre type 2 diabetes)
It is simple to follow and makes a lot of sense.


My breakfast today on day 1;

1 Roma Tomatoe
1 Cup Fresh Spinach
cooked in olive oil
throw in a dash of Turmeric (to fight high cholesterol and heart disease...is better than taking statins)
2 natural farm fresh eggs
and 1 oz of Feta Cheese.

I try to get a few servings of vegetables/fruits in my breakfast. Other wise it can be hard to get 8 servings daily.

I am excited to add It Works! Greens to my lifestyle.
2 scoops added to water, juice or a shake daily gives you the equivilent of 8 servings of fruits and vegetables.
Why is this so important? Whats special about Greens is by using it you put your body in an alkaline state as opposed to an acidic state.
Being Acidic causes many diseases including cancer, heart diesease and diabetes just to name a few.
Using Green alkalizes your body and makes you healthier and helps you fight off disease.
You also Detoxify your body when you alkalize. Ask me about using this as a detox.. ms.wraps@gmail.com

You can learn more about Greens by clicking here go to the product information. Also you can email me and I will send you aPDF of the info.


Todays workout will consist of a Jillian Michaels Kettle Bell DVD.
If you are fortunate enough to be able to go to a gym, awesome! I love going to a gym, I always workout harder when I go. I live over an hour from town so I choose to do my workouts at home for now.




My Lunch today will be:
a Chicken Breast
and a salad made with Romaine, Roma Tomotoe, Cucumber,
Black Olives, Chick Peas and Goat Cheese
Olive Oil, Sea Salt and Pepper for dressing.

Dinner
a Pork Chop cooked in the crock pot with no seasoning.
Steamed Broccoli 

snack
an Apple with peanut butter.

Don't forget to drink alot of water!

Follow the South Beach Diet Book to choose your own meals. Mine are not 100% following but I use the basic guidelines and build from there.

I will also be using Ultimate Thermo Fit
I am very excited about this because I expect it to give me much better and faster results
than I have had in the past. ClickHere for more info then go to Product Information
or email me for a PDF


I'll be back tomorrow with my daily plan and my weight!
Thanks for following and God Bless!



Day 2

Weight is 152 (down 1 lb)
Actually struggled to eat all that was on my menu yesterday. That is why I prefer The South Beach Diet,  you eat as much as YOU need. We are all different.

Today I had a crazy morning, I am sure most of you do have them most of the time. Most of my days start slow! I drank my Greens and I have to admit they taste fine and are close to having no taste at all, a bit of a citrus flavor. So they are pretty easy to add to a regimine! I also took my my Ultimate Thermal Fit and I had intended to eat and after rushing around and getting ready to head to town I got to town to realize I hadn't eaten! Need to get some bars to keep in my purse. The good news is I didn't have the shakes or an upset stomach like many thermogenic products will do even on a full stomach.

So my first meal ended up being a Turkey Reuben and a side salad of lettuce and tomatoe.
Not exactly on South Beach but my point here is to tell you what I do and see how my weight loss goes!

Lunch will be lite another salad if I am even hungry
and
Dinner will be Chicken and Spinach!

Todays workout will be a 2.5 mile interval run/walk along the river unless the rain hits.
Then it will be one of my cardio DVD's.

Kind of sore from the Jillian Michaels Kettle Bell Workout yesterday and I LIKE IT!

When I was at the restaurant in town today the lady complimented my necklace and how it matched my dress!! I went to give her a business card and only had my Wrap cards. So ....she bought a wrap from me on the spot! I have never sold anything this simple in my life!

You can click on the link above to buy a pack of 4 wraps or buy 1 from me to try it out. ms.wraps@gmail.com

Have a great day and drink alot of water! God Bless!



Day 3
Today is day 3 of my diet and day 4 of my workout.
My weight was still at 152 (down 1 lb) which is terrific, a loss of 2 to 3 lbs per week is what I am looking for. I usually lose 10 to 12 lbs in 3 weeks using South Beach Diet type of dieting.

This book explains alot of why you want to eat this specific way and how to do it.



Today I am sore! But happy about it!! My workout consisted of a 2.5 mile interval run walk and it began as a struggle for 2 reasons....1. I didn't want to do it!! 2. My hamstrings were killing me!

My meals today
Breakfast consisted of
2 all natural farm eggs
with Spinach and Feta Cheese
with a dash of Turmeric

Lunch
BIG salad of Romaine
Cucumbers
Tomatoe
and Tuna
(I lied, I ended up having Minestrone soup at a restaurant!)

Dinner
Chicken
and Brocolli
 stir fried in Olive Oil!

Had my Greens in 8 oz. water before breakfast.


Day 4

Weight is 151 (down 2 lbs!!)
I have a busy day today and it's my day off from workout.

Drank my Greens in 8 oz of water. Coffee and yes I do enjoy flavored cream, but not too much!

My breakfast will be eggs with spinach and feta again, may throw in some onions and tomatoe. Can;tforget the turmeric!

I willpack a lunch because I am doing an event with my wraps etc.
Lunch will be a big salad of Romaine, Cucumber, Tomatoe, Olives, Chick Peas, Chicken and
Olive Oil  for dressing.

Haven't decided on dinner yet!!

Day 5

What a crazy and long couple of days!
Yesterday I ended up snacking on a lot of veggies for lunch and had my salad that was for lunch for my dinner.
I have noticed using the Greens daily has really curbed my appetite! Anyone who knows me knows....I like to eat!! But I am just not so hungry like I normally am.
I am not using the Thermofit because after using it for 2 days I triggered my hot flashes...yay me!
I should have known better as I am aware that anything that boosts your metabolism will heat up your body.
That being said...for men or women not in menopause I believe it would be a great product as it didn't make me all shaky and even on an empty stomach (which you aren't supposed to do) it didn't bother me at all.
I am kind of bummed I can't use it, but I will switch to using our Fat Fighter instead!

I didn't weigh myself today, got up at 4:00 with my husband and had so much to do I never thought about it. I have this issue with weighing after I eat and drink anything, so I will have to step on the scale tomorrow.

My day started with Greens and coffee and water.

Breakfast was 2 eggs, all natural farm fresh with a load of onions, spinach and tomatoes and ofcourse Turmeric.

Not sure whats for lunch or dinner yet which is very strange for me, I like to know my meals ahead of time...usually plan my life around it!!

Todays workout is Kettle Bells again. Using my Jillian Michael DVD and I can tell you it kicks butt big time!
I will also probably do a power walk as its a gorgeous day and tomorrow I have no time in my schedule for a workout.

Happy Friday everyone, God Bless :)

Day 6 and 7
Long weekend out and about and I began my day with Greens and a good breakfast.....but didn't follow through the rest of the day. Ended up having some licorice and some other splurges....um Beer! So on Day 8 I am kind of starting all over!! The good news is I am still down 2 lbs!

Day 8 
Tired today after a long weekend, and of course eating junk makes you tired as well.

Todays workout will be Kettle Bells again!
Started my day with Greens and Coffee and a lot of water.
Breakfast was eggs with spinach and onion, no cheese today, need to grocery shop!

Lunch will be a salad with a mix of greens and cucumber, tomatoes, chick peas and olives. Olive oil and salt for dressing.

Not sure about dinner yet!
Dinner was chicken and brocolli. Chicken cooked on the grill and brocolli stir friend in Olive Oil.

Day 9
Didn't weigh myself,  had an early day going to work with my hubs and know I won't be eating like I should. My workout will be a 2 mile walk at Boxwood Gulch since I won't be home until late.
Breakfast : Tuna sand on Rye and Fries....we meet his clients for breakfast and I eat eggs so much I don't care for them in restaurants.

Lunch: Steak, salad, potatoes, beans, and Rhubarb Pie! I did refrain from Beer and Wine though.

Didn't even think about dinner, wasn't hungry.

Day 10

Can't believe I am still down 2 lbs. Today I can eat better and workout hard and I need both!!
I also will begin using my Fat Burner, it arrived yesterday! My plan today is to do my Kettle Bell Workout, maybe a interval run walk as well. I NEED IT!!

Today am starting my day with Greens and Coffee and lots of water.
Feeling very dehydrated today.

Breakfast will be eggs with spinach and provolone. I think I'll throw in some tomatoe and onion as well.

Lunch not sure. Ended up having a tuna melt!

Dinner Pork with a salad of Mixed Greens, Cucumber, Tomatoe, Chick Peas, Olives, and olive oil.

Day 11
Down another 1/2 lb. Loss of 2.5 so far.

Added Fat Fighters to my meals a couple days ago. These are great, you can take them up to an hour after a meal and trhey stop the absorption of some fats and carbs. I am excited about them because they help regulate blood sugar. Still using my Greens daily and will add more products soon. I like to add them one at a time so I can see how they work!



Todays breakfast was
Pulled Pork on a Tortilla

Lunch was salad with mixed greens, cucumber, tomatoe, chick peas and provolone. With Olive Oil and salt.

Dinner
Pork and potatoe salad.

Day 12

Breakfast
2 eggs, with spinach, tomotoe and onion.

Lunch: Salad mixed greens, cucumber and tomatoe

Dinner...not sure yet! Dinner ended up being nachoes and potatoe skins and beer! Not great for a diet!

Day 13
Down 3 lbs!
Was laying in bed thinking I need to take this more seriously, I awoke to another 1/2 lb gone!
So I am thinking with all my splurges and such that the fat fighters and greens are helping me lose weight.
Pretty excited about that! But after the holiday weekend I am going to get more serious about things here!

Breakfast today
2 Eggs and 3 pcs Turkey Bacon

Lunch Salad with mixed greens, cucumber, tomatoe, onion, chick peas. OliveOil and sea salt.

Dinner....not sure!

OK, so now its June 1st and I have been MIA!
Still down 3.5 lbs though!!
I can't say I have worked on my healthy eating, though some meals daily are very healthy.
I'm dealing with something on an emotional level, part of me is content with how I look for my age,
part of me wants to look better. Unfortunately when their is good food around the content part of me
chows down!!

So I'm starting over today. If I'm going to have splurges then I need to be more active!

Always start my day with 20 oz water, coffee and an 8 oz glass of Greens.

Breakfast: 2 farm fresh eggs.

Lunch:
