I'm a lucky girl!

I'm so proud of my husband!

He's about two weeks into his first 30-day program....and he's down 9 lbs and 10 inches!!!! Amazing!

He tried on a shirt for work this morning and had to change because it was just too big!!! Woot!

And not only is he also so happy for me and the results I'm having....he's 100% supportive of me working to help others reach their goals too!

Through all of this excitement and change....he's also been renovating our main bathroom! Like "tore it out completely and re-built it" renovating!!! I can't wait to see it all done...so close! :)

I certainly am blessed to have such an understanding and motivating partner!

A splendid shopping trip!

We've had another crazy week, but this morning after taking my son to soccer practice, I had a little time to get to the mall.

I have an awards ceremony for work this week, so I was hoping to find something to wear.

Well, not only did I get a dynamite deal on a deep purple satin pencil skirt....but I bought it in TWO sizes smaller than I would have needed to buy only 45 days ago.

I was stunned.

I had a few tears in the change room.

I'm just feeling so blessed. I have loads of energy...I feel great...and every time I turn around, someone I care about is asking my about how Isagenix can help them too.

This is just the beginning of amazing things ahead.

And I can't wait!

Forget the fries...pass me the bag.

So today was both the best of days and the worst of days...

It was awesome because this morning I measured and I'm now down 15 lbs and 47 inches!

Happy Dance!!!! Woot woot!

And now...the bad news...

Today was a bit of a gong show at our house...I left this morning without 3 things I needed for my day.

My husband was to pick me up to make a run to the tile store at lunch to pick out tile for our main bathroom reno. Which would have been much easier if he'd remembered to bring one of the floor tiles. Sigh.

We had some catching up to to today anyway, so we decided to run through a drive-thru, and chat and eat on the way home for the floor tile.

It was a fantastic plan! Very efficient. We were sooooo wrong.

When I first noticed that while using isagenix products I was naturally moving to smaller portions...it didn't realize that my body would full on reject a burger and fries!!!

We made it to the tile store...our main bathroom is going to rock - in case you wondered :) - and I was back to the office and in a staff meeting when it all went south...

There really is nothing like bolting out of a meeting, tossing your cookies in the communal bathroom, and then having to go back into a meeting for another hour. Awesome.

I was very grateful for IsaDelights and cinnamon gum today.


I am officially off fast food.

Charged up to co-create!!!

Okay...so I will admit right now that I had no idea yesterday what the heck co-creation even was!

But today - I'm so excited to make positive changes in our lives...and to share that with others!

I want to see everyone we know...and everyone that they know...feel energized and excited about their lives!

Yesterday my husband and I had the chance to attend a seminar taught by PK Kevin Smith. What an amazing and inspirational speaker!!!

I won't give away the punch line because I really believe that everyone should attend one of these sessions and learn about working together to create wellness and wealth.

On the way home from the session, my husband and I allowed ourselves to dream....big dreams!!!

I've always had goals, but now my mindset matches my mindset.

Time to get to work...to enjoy the riches already present in my life and truly live.

It's just that easy!!!

Fruity and delicious

This morning my shake had a little extra kick to it. 

All thanks to a scoop of IsaFruits! Yummy!

Every time I try a new product, I'm expecting that it will disappoint....and so far I've been dead wrong....every time!

I found that the IsaFruits added a subtle flavour and blended really well into the shake. A perfect option for those mornings when you need a little something special in your shake to start your day off with a smile.

I love how flexible this system is and how well all the products work together!

And in update on my husband's progress...

Last night he was really having some caffeine withdrawal...but this morning he said he's feeling much better.  I think he really likes his IsaBlender...tomorrow he may even let me try it out! Lol!

Put me in, Coach!

Today my husband started his first 30 day Isagenix program. Woot! I'm so excited to support and coach him as we both keep moving towards better health (and some kickin' it bodies too!)

This morning he seemed to have everything under control...and I was perhaps in a bit of a rush. I forgot to ask him if he had any questions. My first coach fail!

When I arrived at work, I had a few text messages on my phone...him asking me how to make his shake. It didn't even occur to me that he hadn't been paying attention when I've been making shakes for the last month.

I felt terrible!

Thank goodness that he's understanding!

The great news is that his first day is going well and having our meal today for lunch meant that we went out for lunch together and shared a meal to keep to the program.....which was also a bit romantic!

Sharing food...chatting...it's been a while, and it was really nice to have a little time in the middle of our day to connect. :)

Mmmm...mmmm...soup!

As I move into my next 30 days, I'm hoping to change things up a bit.

The IsaLean tomato soup has been calling my name....especially in the last couple weeks since it's been so cold here! Really cold...feeling-really-badly-for-anyone-with-a-runny-nose-that-will-instantly-freeze-when-they-go-outside cold.

Yesterday, both my isagenix order - that included the soup! - and my husband's first order....a president's pak!....arrived just before lunch.

What perfect timing!!!

It was so lovely to get to stay inside on a cold, blustery day and enjoy my soup! I wasn't sure how tasty it would be, but I was happy to be surprised!

It's a zesty soup that's easy to drink. I let the water cool off from a boil for about 10 mins before I added the soup mix because I didn't want to risk inactivating any of the nutrition in the mix.

And also because I prefer to avoid second degree burns inside my mouth from eating soup that is way too hot!

I'm so glad to have another option for lunch or dinner that keeps me on track to achieve my goals!

I'm also really happy that my husband has decided to join me on this journey and I can't wait to see his results!! (even if I'm a little jealous that I know he'll be able to just think about cleansing and drop 10 lbs...men!)
