My Isagenix Journey
So I began a 30 day Isagenix Journey August 8.
It's been 7 days and I feel fantastic! I was able to pull my belt another notch tighter!!!
I've tried to follow the daily schedule and it's really fitting to my schedule which has made it easier to accomplish my first week. I also added 2 cleanse days in which were difficult but I made
Ultimate goal: get back to 135-140 and toned.
Cant wait to see results on day 30!

To the best friend I have drifted apart from...
I hope this finds you on a day that is filled with blessings and happiness.
I know we are no longer as close as we once were, and I ask myself over and over again, why?
I guess that is what happens when we grow up and establish our own lives. You never think it's going to be your best friend who ends up no longer being your best friend...we go back years and I can remember all our good times. I miss the bond we used to share, especially when we needed each other most. I wish I was still a part of your life and in the know, it saddens me that that's no longer how it is.
However, our friendship was a large part of who I am today and how I managed to get to where I am now. I hope I have influenced your life in some way too.
I can't say that I am at all okay with it, but I know that it happens. And with that, I want to wish you well in your life and I hope that you are finding joy in all of your endeavors.
-Forever and always your friend

It Works!
You've heard about those crazy wraps that swear they help shrink those fat cells and stubborn areas? Well, I have and to be honest, I thought they were a joke. I had no interest in trying it.. one day I just had to see what the fuss was all about...
Well, it really does work! I've lost inches with just one wrap! I do swear by a clean diet and exercise, but sometimes, it's not enough. When you're like me and have had kids, you have that stubborn mom belly that literally will not go away! UGh, I tried the wrap for that reason alone, to see if it would help with my mom belly, and to my surprise, it has! (I have pictures to prove it, will put on my next post).
But I wanted to share my link, click on it and browse, see what you think...

No need to feel obligated to buy these products, but take it from me, someone who is very skeptical on just about everything, that it really has worked for me and those stubborn areas. Because if you know me, you know that I whole heartedly believe that you should exercise and eat healthy for ultimate body results. BUT It Works, really does work! They have other products as well, such as vitamins, skin care lines, and greens. Try it, you will be surprised as the results! :)
Enough of my sales pitch talk, I hope you've all had a great weekend!

Back to reality...
And this brings me back to reality, that the past is the past...cuz after all, I am a bad ass indeed. ;)
Memory lane
I had an extremely powerful feeling that I needed to go back to Germany like yesterday. I visited with a friend about it and we decided that we were going to retire there...we can dream, right?
Well....I decided to look for a favorite picture from when I lived there. In all honesty, there wasn't a single picture I saw that brought back a happy memory. I was not expecting that reaction...I am saddened that all I feel is an over powering feeling of guilt and resentment. Guilt is because of mistakes I made while young and dumb, and resentment towards an emotional bully that destroyed who I was as a person.
I know they say you shouldn't have regrets because at one time, it was what you wanted...well I think its definitely a possibility to regret those choices, especially when it influences your entire life.
I am totally content with how my life is, but I will admit that I should have been smarter. I should have listened to my gut...and kick myself for only now seeing the ridiculousness I got myself in to. Shizah!
Well regardless of how that chapter in my life ended, it's something I never want to relive and focussing on my future with my littles is all that is important. I've Learned from my mistakes, and will be certain not to make those again.
