First ever Expo and start of a 2 week fitness challenge!

Expo in Coaldale went well! Hoping to have some people join me on this incredible journey soon! :)

I have decided to join a friend in a 14 day fitness challenge - I haven't yet decided what this will entail but I do know that I am very excited! :) For the first week, I'll be down in the Lethbridge area so I can get a lot of climbing in and hopefully work out a run schedule! I think that my plan will be to engage in some physical activity for at least an hour each day and keep strict with my Isagenix plan - 2 shakes, 2 snacks, 1 meal each day (ice cream cake fits in there somewhere, right?!). I will also be doing a 2-day cleanse in this 14 day period (and maybe the first half of another)! The trick is to figure out when will work best! :) No physical activity when cleansing. 
Before pictures will be taken tonight or tomorrow morning!

More exciting news! I'm working on getting the family on board to all do a 30-day cleanse together! Sister, mom, brother seem to be on board! Next step is Hubby! :) It would be so fantastic to have us all going through it together and supporting each other! Anybody who wants to join us is more than willing! :) Hoping for Oct 1 start. Don't worry, you can still have Thanksgiving turkey! :)

That's the beauty of Isagenix, you can still eat that stuff you love, you just don't feel guilty about it! 

Signing off for now and will be updating daily for this 14 day challenge! :)

Sept 21: 10 min of Elliptical (I'm not making excuses for the lack of exercise yesterday! :))
Sept 22: 3 climbing routes (estimated 45 min total spent climbing), 1 hour walk around Henderson Lake
Sept 23: 1.5 climbing routes (20ish minutes) - TIIIIRED! , 1 hour walk around Henderson
Sept 24:Cleanse
Sept 25: Cleanse

I don't remember when and what I did for exercise anymore :( I know that I haven't done anything since coming back "home". Apparently leaving the yard is not the safest option when there are cougars, bears, and wolves :S. Hoping to get to a gym soon!!!

Update to follow tomorrow (post-cleanse, Oct 4!)

Day... I've lost track and have NOT fallen off the Earth! :)

Hi everyone,

It has been FOREVER since I wrote a post and I think I have a pretty good excuse - no internet! :(
Here I am, on day unknown, preparing for the Coaldale Natural Health and Wellness Expo (come see me!) to spread the word on this amazing product!
I haven't the slightest idea where my measurements and weight are at (I threw out our scale when we moved and I feel mostly ok with that!) and I need to get some measurements done but I DO have pictures from the end of month 4 (or what I THOUGHT was week 16, day 120). Below is the comparison of my day 1, 30, 60, 90, and my supposed day 127 - I lost track of time somewhere, and apparently can't count to 120 on the calendar...


I kind of had to improvise with the photo taking most recently - my photographer started a new job and we are living in a new space.

I can sure see the difference, can you?

It has been 2 weeks since I took that picture (give or take) and I can still feel my tummy shrinking! It is awesome!

On a related, unrelated topic, Isagenix came out with a NEW bar that's pretty tasty (I still like the Chocolate Decadence and Lemon Passion Crunch better) but the hubby likes this one! It's called Nutty Caramel Cashew and it tastes kind of like butterscotch.


I'll be handing out samples at the Expo (come see meeeeeeee - *hint, hint!*).

Hmmmm... What else has happened since I last wrote on here? Oh! I started blending my shakes and BBB (Bedtime Belly Buster/Blaster) with ice. The blender I got doesn't seem to like ice too much so I put very little in with the water. I assume it is for this reason that it doesn't really change the consistency of the Dutch Chocolate IsaLean Shake but I really like the ice blended up with the Natural Vanilla IsaLean Pro Shake


I think that's all for today! I will make sure to share how the Expo goes! Thanks for checking in :).

Total inches released: ???
Total pounds released: ???
**I did have my measurements from the end of August but they're back up North. I will get the tape measure out this weekend and update the spreadsheet and this glorious blog! :P**

As always, if you have any questions feel free to message me or check out my website. Also, feel free to keep up today on my progress with my Google spreadsheet here! :)
