Isagenix Day 1 Pre-cleanse

We decided to dive in and start the program today, a Friday. I was hesitant about starting it on a Friday because I usually "let go" of my strict (or not so strict) eating habits on the weekend. Now I have to suck it up and be a good girl. I figure if I'm going to spend $345 on a program I better stick with it and see what it can do for me. We took all the measurements needed to chart our progress and weighed in this morning. I was shocked. I had let myself go that much! AAUUUGGG!!! Ok I will only reveal my weight and measurements if requested. So remember to leave a comment.

Today is day one of the pre-cleanse days. There are two pre-cleanse days before you actually start cleansing. I get a shake for breakfast, a 600 calorie max lunch and another shake for dinner. This sounds like all the other "diets" I've seen and been on. It is day three when the cleansing starts and that's when the fun really begins. No food just three shakes a day, 6 snacks which are really just large wafer pills and water until I can't stand it anymore along with a fat accelerator. The shakes have the consistency of wallpaper paste but admittedly they don't taste bad. What I am allowed to eat isn't bad either. For lunch I will have 5 oz of chicken breast, 3/4 cup of organic brown rice, 14.5 oz of green beans and a salad with 6 oz of fat free Italian dressing. Not too bad. I could learn to like this.

In the 9 day (which is really 11 days) kit you get your Isagenix Isalean Shake, 1 bottle of Isagenix Natural Accelerator (for fat burning), 1 bottle of the Isagenix Snacks and two containers of Cleanse for Life drink. Also you get a mentor. Someone calls you and discusses the product, the program days and answers any and all of your questions. I got a very nice lady from Arkansas named Marg. She is my support system and I am glad to hear from someone that has been through what I am going through. Of course what program doesn't strongly suggest that you exercise? So they are suggesting a minimum of 20 minutes of exercise daily. Does laundry count?

I think if this product is different then the others it will have be in the formula they use. I like the fact that all of their ingredients are organic. I like using products that are only organic. I am a Shaklee member and for those out there who don't know what Shaklee is I advise going on the Internet and finding out. I really like their products and their Cinch shakes are a very good breakfast. But Shaklee isn't offering a cleansing product (at least not that I know of and I haven't really checked) that is boasting a weight loss side effect. So Isagenix will hopefully fit the bill.

I will keep everyone posted...going swimming for now to get my 20+ minutes of exercise. Tune in tomorrow for the continuing saga of my body melt down.

Inspiration and help

I have been writing my book and am getting to that point where I need a little inspiration. So I started watching Hauntings on the History channel and saw some unsettling points of view. I am a firm believer in ghosts and I am saddened and angered by those who do not believe. Not everyone HAS to believe what I think or what other people think about ghosts but have some respect for their opinion. Don't just call them crazy or say that they don't think they know what they saw. I was so disturbed I changed the channel and started watching Medium. So after a good solid hour I felt better and got the inspiration I needed. I started writing again. Then I realized what direction my writing went and had to laugh. Since its snowing out I knew I was going to need a lot more input to put my mind in the right frame of mind so I sought the help of my Wii. I spent an hour killing zombies in my Resident Evil game and started writing again. As a writer trying to become known this is the horr...

Captive Audience

At the end of each month I like to see if anyone in the world is actually reading what I have to say or am I just using this blog as a method to get away from all the voices in my head. I was surprised. I happen to be big in Russia and Sweden. Yes, my dear friends in the US do read my blog too but the Swedish beat you this month. So I all my wonderful readers in Russia, I just wanted to say: Спасибо за то, что читать мой blog. Для информации обо мне, сумасшедшем авторе, посещают мой вебсайт в www.jennipherdallas.com . For my Swedish friends: Tack för avläsning min blogg. För information om mig, de galna författaren, besöka min hemsida på  www.jennipherdallas.com Gee I hope I got that right : )  Keep reading I promise to stay crazy! Until next time...

Dilemma-ethical-uh?

If you google the word dilemma it comes up with the following definition: "A situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more alternatives, especially equally undesirable ones." Then goes on to give synonyms like quandary, predicament and vicious circle.  *Sigh* Well, wonders never cease in my world and for the sake of my sanity I hope my five whole readers understand what I am about to spill. Everyone has someone in their family that does not sit right with them (I'm trying to be ambiguous here for a reason). I am no different. I have no real family anymore. Since my father died almost two months ago, I have NO family anymore. Sure, I have a sibling, who is a complete and utter moron. This person is a run away from responsibility, self-centered individual who I have tried to help throughout the years. The other person is a selfish, self-centered, manipulative, gas bag who thinks the world revolves around them and goes out the ...
