Isagenix Update

Well...the scale read 141.8 lbs this morning. I have lost just over 1/2 pound since last week. That was a really hard 1/2 pound to lose. 


I am just 1.9 pounds away from my goal and we found out this past week that we are leaving for vacation a week earlier than expected! This means I have just 12 days to lose those almost 2 pounds. And believe me...I am trying.


I am walking 2.5 - 3 miles a day. I cannot walk more due to my knee. I am also eating a healthy diet of around 1300-1400 calories. I will get dizzy if I cut out any more calories. I have tried before and it is not good. 

Hopefully the scale will continue to go down and reflect my hard work. I do feel lighter and I have lost 4 pounds off my waist in three months.  I have lost 7% of my body weight in those three weeks. My face shape has changed and I am happy with the results. 


I have to say I love the Isagenix shakes. They are easy, taste pretty good and I can take them with me in the mornings. They fill me up for a few hours and are all natural. I already placed a bulk order for a few months so I can take them with me in FL. 


I will continue to work hard and weigh in regularly. 


For those interested, here is almost exactly what I eat every day:

Yogurt (80 calories) - within 30 minutes of waking up
Isagenix Shake (240 calories) - 2 hours after the yogurt
Yogurt & Fruit (180 calories) - mid morning snack
Salad & Chicken (250 calories) - 3oz of Tyson grilled chicken, 4 cups of spinach, 1 cup of blueberries or strawberries, 1 cup of shredded carrots and 20 squirts of the 1-calorie salad dressing - lunch
Fiber One Granola Bar (140 calories) - mid afternoon snack
Smart Meal from Weight Watchers (200-250 calories) - I buy these at Wal-Mart for around $2 and I alternate the Mesquite Chicken and the Turkey meal - dinner
Snack at night (150 calories) - I get my pick of: pretzels, another granola bar or mini wheats cereal. These keep my stomach quiet while I sleep.

  1. I can't believe you eat the exact same thing every day. Maybe I should try that.

  2. Thanks for the comment Chrissy. It just makes it easier for me. I don't have to think about what to eat every day and I know what I need to shop for. My husband does the same thing though his "list" looks different.
