Where is your money going?

After a grocery shopping trip in December, I looked at our counter full of groceries and felt very depressed.  I grabbed my camera and snapped a picture of the insane amount of "junk" that we had just purchased.  We didn't think anything of it when we were at the store -- this was normal food in our diets.  I quickly analyzed the quality of the food on the counter and realized that every single thing was a product that would only do harm to our bodies.  We had nothing nutritional on the counter -- it was all processed "crap" that we would enjoy for a few minutes in our mouths and nothing more.  This was a big turning point in our decision to change our lives.  We analyzed what we were spending on food that our bodies didn't need to survive and decided we could focus that money in a new direction to change our lives for the better.  I challenge you to take a moment to analyze your pantry, grocery cart, or counter and think about where your money is going.  Are you spending that money putting nutritious food in your body or is your money being wasted on vending machine snacks or other junk food that will do harm instead of good?  Food for thought...

AdvoCare 24-Day Challenge Results

After 24 days of a whole new outlook on food and the nutrients we are putting into our bodies, we not only feel MUCH better, but we have also shed a few pounds and inches.  Unfortunately with our busy lives we weren't able to exercise during these 24 days; however, the next time we do a challenge (in 3 months), we are going to focus on exercise to see the difference in results.  While our weight loss wasn't "dramatic" in 24 days, we steadily took some weight off and did it in a healthy manner.  AdvoCare isn't a quick fix diet pill.  It is putting good nutrition into our bodies and retraining ourselves to eat healthier and live better.  Without further ado, I present to you our weight loss results for the past 24 days using the AdvoCare 24-Day Challenge Supplement Pack.

I am down 6.3 lbs & 12 inches and Ethan is down 10 lbs & 7.25 inches!  We certainly have a LONG way to go on our "quest for complete health" but this is a wonderful jump start to our weight loss goals and we couldn't be happier!  I like to think about weight loss in terms of butter to keep me motivated.  There are 4 sticks of butter in one pound.  So, I've lost over 24 sticks of butter in 24 days and Ethan has lost 40 sticks of butter!  We are going to continue using many of the AdvoCare products to keep our momentum going - MNS packs, Catalyst, ThermoPlus, plus meal items like shakes & snack bars.  If you want to jump start your health goals, give us a call and we can help you lose weight with AdvoCare!
