Making a commitment

I made a commitment and it feels soooo good!  I want to share the ups and downs with you as I take this leap.  And, like my favorite saying goes,"One day at a time".  I will be sharing my pictures, before and after and everything in between. 

I was not an overweight child or teenager.  I think the excess weight began to accumulate in my late 30's.  Yes, that's it, my son and daughter were in middle school.  Oh yeah, it is all coming back now, it was probably the stress.  I love to cook and between working, cooking big southern meals (and lots of desserts), running to ball fields and dealing with two preteen middle schoolers, I got fat.  I didn't realize until I put it on paper, but, it had to be the cortisol levels, from the stress.  The ones that cause all the belly fat.  I didn't have any time for myself and totally let my diet and health go.  Sounds good, right?  Just another one of the many excuses I made over the years.

Well, regardless of how it happened, it did.  Since that time, I have joined gyms, walked, been on a random diet or two (LOL), joined Weight Watchers (several times) and nothing has really worked for me.  Instead of really getting serious, I guess I was in denial and always thought, I'm really not that bad!  I was still young enough that I never thought about possible health issues down the road.  How could I be so ignorant to neglect the most important gift I was given - my health.

Fast forward a few years.  I am now 57 years old and a grandmother of three precious grandsons.  My weight has continued to escalate and I have started to carry it in places I had never noticed before.  My knees, my neck, my midriff, my arms.  Fortunately, other than being overweight, my health has been good.  I had begun to feel sluggish and not so attractive anymore.  The thought of having an illness had begun to consume my thoughts.  I want to be the best Wife, Mother, Mother-In-Law and Grandmother I can be.  I want to be around for my family. 

So, I knew I needed to do something and sooner than later.  I went on a search for the healthiest and most nutritious program I could find.  If I was going to make a lifetime commitment, I wanted every single ingredient that I put into my body to be natural, whole and clean.  Nothing artificial or processed for me!  It had to be proven and backed by scientific evidence.  It had to be filling, and, of course I didn't want to have ANY hunger pangs.  I was also interested in a program with a cleanse.  That's something I had never tried but had been hearing so much about, from Dr. Oz to all the fitness and health magazines I have been reading.  With the help of my daughter, who is the "healthiest nut" I know, I found my product. 

After completing 30 days I can honestly say, I feel so good and healthy, I want to shout it from the roof tops!  It is a nutritional and cellular cleanse.  It has everything I was looking for and much, much more.  It is easy!  It is convenient!  I am not hungry and it is delicious!  I get to eat some of the best chocolate in the world!  What more could I ask for?  My program is ISAGENIX and it is AMAZING!  And, I am here to tell you, it Works!!
