I don't know about you, but I absolutely dread that moment in the springtime where I walk into target, and see that swimsuits are on the shelf. I hate this because every summer for the last few years I make a promise to myself that NEXT summer I am going to look hott in a bikini. Funny how I make that promise to myself every summer, meaning that it hasn't happened. This is the last summer I am allowing it, and I am only allowing it this summer because this is the summer I am actually going to make the change. I think I finally got serious because I am getting married next summer. I am less worried about what I will look like in a wedding dress, and more worried about what I am going to look like on my honeymoon, on a beach, in a bikini. I plan on spending my entire honeymoon with as close to nothing on as possible (sorry for the tmi but it's so true).
I just completed my 24 day advocare challenge 2 weeks ago. I would be lying if I said that I havent celebrated the last 2 weeks (a little too much maybe) and have definitly slacked a little in the eating healthy department. I lost 20 lbs doing my challenge, and I haven't lost a single pound since. However, I haven't gained either, so that's good. Still, I am not where I want to be. I have never been obsessed with my weight as a NUMBER. When I make comments about wanting to lose 15 pounds, or twenty pounds, I really just totally pull that number out of nowhere. The truth is I don't care what the scale tells me, or other people. My goal is to look in the mirror and not just like what I see but LOVE it. It is so freeing to feel confident and feel beautiful.
Since finishing the challenge I have been researching more advocare products, and how to continue my journey. I am ready to get serious again. I have been reading blogs about other peoples journey on advocare, talking to people who use it, and been asking what people's favorite products are. I described where I am at, stuck again. I want to lose more weight. I need some structure and I need some accountability. So here is what I came up with.
It has been suggested to me to repeat the Max Phase. The Max Phase is technically the 2nd part of the infamous 24 day challenge. I have chosen to do the Max Phase that concentrates on weight loss and appetite control. During my challenge I chose the phase which helped with weight loss, and energy. As suggested also, I am going to combine my max phase with Thermoplus, and with Catalyst.
Thermoplus: Thermoplus helps support your body's ability to convert fat into energy. It boosts and promotes a healthy appetite and it helps suppress your appetite. It also contains Oolong Tea and Sage Extracts to support weight loss.
Catalyst: Cataylyst helps maintain muscle mass during excercise and helps you burn FAT instead of lean muscle.
Those 3 products I have on my website as "The Summer Bikini" Challenge option. This is the BASIC bundle.
I have another option which is more expensive, but is what I am going to be doing. That is also on my website and comes with the everything the basic bundle comes with, but also includes a box of Meal Replacement Shakes (which are actually yummy) and a container of Spark.
The Meal replacement shakes are AWESOME. Like I said, they are GOOD. I blend mine with ice & water in the blender, and they taste like a milkshake. My personal flavor is chocolate, but they have Mocha, Berry, and Vanilla as well. They are 220 calories, and are a balanced meal for balanced nutrition and weight management. They are high in fiber and calcium and contain 26 vitamins and minerals. I have already bought more shakes, because I am so in love with them as a breakfast on the go option.
Lastly, Spark! Spark is my FAVORITE. First of all, its SO affordable. It is MUCH cheaper than Red Bull, Energy Drinks, and Coffee. It is WAY healthier, and gives you tons of energy with no crash. It doesnt make you jittery like alot of other energy drinks do. Spark comes in many flavors, I have tried all of them and they are all really good. Spark is available in Mango Strawberry, Pink Lemonade, Mandarin Orange, Fruit Punch, Grape, Citrus and Cherry. It is the most nutritionally advanced energy drink on the market. It is SUGAR - FREE! It contains 45 calories and contains 21 vitamins, minerals and nurients designed to synergistically promote a healthy and balanced source of energy.
