I have tried quite a few diet plans, researched that many more. So many drastically cut calories, These were not recommended by my nutritionist, she would not let me use any plan that cut calorie drastically, what she wanted was a well balanced diet & exercise. Which is what I had in place already,my Daughter knowing I needed to increase my walking, gave me a wonderful gift on my Birthday (March), a Jawbone UP, I was so excited! So this has been a great motivator for me, I love seeing all my steps each day & sleep! I had already committed to the Run or Dye walk run coming in July, so I had a goal to walk a 5K with ease. Haven't walk one recently, but I believe I am ready to do this! Stay tune more on that in a later post. But with all of this I still wasn't losing grrrrrr Doc ran some test, trying to figure out why I'm not losing, everything's normal (yippee!). ok Time to give Plexus a chance, after all, money back guarantee for 60 days.
8 weeks ago I started a journey with Plexus, When I started, I only knew that it was a very healthy (lots of nutrients) & that I would lose weight! I was told, you drink Plexus (Pink) Slim,it help you lose weight and inches by burning fat, not muscle. Slim also helps keep blood sugar, cholesterol and lipids at healthy levels. (not a food replacement!) Start your day with Plexus Slim, mixed with water, then 30 minutes later, eat a healthy breakfast, take one Plexus Accelerator (has wonderful benefits, more later on that!) with Breakfast. Then another Accelerator with healthy lunch, eat a healthy dinner & drink tons of water! Simply that easy. I was not a believer, but thought what do I have to lose ?? right ? me the pessimist of weight loss.
When I started, I wasn't sure what to expect, will I get jitters or feel funny you know all the stuff "weight loss stuff does" (caffeine filled!). but Plexus has super low Caffeine, so I was hoping none of that stuff. None of those symptoms appeared! I did feel a bit off, I remember making a note about it, but it was gone by the 3rd day. Think I was Gassy from it.
Week 1... I weighed myself at one week & had gained 4lbs! I was shocked, but my body has been in serious stall, hang in there my wonderful consultant told me.. she also told me about Candida, a yeast infection most of us get that can negatively effect weight loss, so my Daughter & purchased the Plexus ProBio 5, I did have other Probiotics & started using that right away. On that first Friday, I went & got a new tattoo, a rather large one on my calf, this is important fact. more later.
Week 2... at the end of week 2, I was now up 7 lbs, can you see discouragement! Again my consultant reassured me to stay the course. Told me to stay off the scale, I am really bad about the scale, Mostly because that is how the Doctors measure us. hmmm I am my own worse enemy. I also then realized I am a diabetic, with a major wound on my leg, that's healing & will be for the next 4 or 5 weeks... water retention too drink more water! Ok I will stay the course. sigh~
Week 3... Was healing, feeling a bit better, energy starting appearing, random stuff like , hmmm I want to take another walk tonight. I also notice I was not caring about coffee in the morning. My taste seem to be changing, wasn't as hungry. weight stay the same... I did measure & there was 5 inches gone... a baby step. I am also working hard at my thoughts, it's been on my radar for awhile now. Feeling change... need to drink more water :) & remember to stay the course.
Week 4...3 weeks after my Tattoo, healing seems slow, so I decide to pick up a good immunity booster, I started feeling better, but I was just bouncing up & down on the scale.. ok I know I should just stay off. but dang it, I am frustrated! Water, drink water... drink water.. don't forget! but I will stay the course & get another months supply of Plexus, I still have the 60 day money back guarantee, I can see change now, I am slow but sure!
Week 5... Energy is super noticeable now, it's like WOW! I am waking up feeling like I am ready to engage with the world, how wonderful to wake that way.. Starting walking more on weekends, taking that extra walk when I get home.. I actually am falling asleep fast. My BS seem to be lower, I've adjusted down my insulin again. Down 3-4 lb of the 7, I gained in the beginning Also have lost 3 inches over all. I will stay the course .. I very hopeful!
Week 6... is about the same as week 5, loving the energy, noticing, that I really am not very hungry, nor am I caring about sweets, only a few sips of coffee in the morning..I am finding lots of Bathrooms... I am drinking my water! Walking is getting fun, really enjoy taking Dixie out. effort is less & I feel like I got a spring in my steps.. still sleeping great! weight about the same.... it's about staying the course...
Week 7 ... well I am down 1 pound finally YIPPEEE, this body is one stubborn bitch, But I feel so fabulous, I feel lighter, shirts feel a bit looser, like in the arms, across the belly, pants do too!
Week 8.. I am now down 3 lb, I have broke the number! ok that feels good. I know that Plexus is a great product, I honestly can say, energy is fabulous!, food cravings curved!, Sleep is fabulous! This Weekend has been filled with energy! Friday 7205, Saturday 7931,Sunday noon 6389, day is not done yet, I mowed the lawn twice (super high), nice aerobics Here's a look at my UP, 3 month review ( March was a half of month). June is off to a good start. need to measure, maybe next Friday.
