Isagenix

As I was flipping though my June 2011 copy of Natural Health, I came across an advertisement for Isagenix. Isagenix is a "nutritional cleansing" product that has a side effect of weight loss. I have cleansed in the past and have usually purchased the kit from Walmart or Walgreen's for $25 bucks or so. Now I have always felt better after cleansing my system but weight loss was never a significant side effect. True, Ron White does have something when he asks in one of his shows "Have you ever taken a crap so big your pants fit better?" I hate to admit that when I feel full of myself that I am always happy to puck out $25 from my wallet and buy a cleansing kit.

I have been struggling with my weight since I was in high school and have tried everything from Aerobics to Zumba to get fit along with every trendy diet; so when I heard of a cleansing product with a weight loss side effect I was very interested. I looked it up on the Internet and found on YouTube two videos on the product. One was Fox 31 news that talked about the cleansing aspect of the product and Channel 4 that actually had two people go through the program. After seeing the videos I talked it over with my husband and convinced him to try out the product together.

I didn't realize how expensive the product was. For two 9 day cleansing kits it cost us $345! We purchased the product on Saturday and got the package today. I am excited to start. I am not sure what I expect to happen. I know, from experience, that I cannot drink a few whey shakes and expect to magically lose the forty or so pounds I am hoping to get rid of but I am thinking this will offer the kick start to my "new" weight loss/healthy lifestyle.

I will keep everyone posed on what happens, hopefully daily. I am not sure, with this being Thursday and all, that we will start this program tomorrow but I will keep you updated. From the look of the "views" on the website, my blog has some followers and I hope not to disappoint the few people that bother to read this.

Stay tuned for more......

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak.  In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of  the top of my nail, showing the te...

It's been three months....

Okay it's been three months since I started this journey. I had decided to stop being a slave to my fake nails and go all natural. For better or worse, I wanted to stop putting so many chemicals in and on my body and just let nature take it's course. Having said that, I knew I was in for a rough ride. For starters, I have been wearing solar/acrylic nails since I was sixteen years old. I now have a 16 year old daughter of my own, so you do the math...I will not help.  Anyway, The first two months were hard. My nails were so thin and weak that I could actually bend what little nail I had backwards without pain. So I cut my nails down to the quick and decided to start new. I first started with using Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps but found out that they have formaldehyde in it. So I changed. I over to Nail-Aid's Keratin and 3 Minute Artificial. It is made in America and does not use formaldehyde and does NOT test on animals.  So, I saw little to no improvement...
