Day 6..

Well, I survived my first cleanse day on Friday last week. It was a real struggle. I've been told, to get optimum results, a double cleanse should be done. For me, one day was hard enough not to eat anything. All you have is this berry drink and water.....

So apart from the one day cleanse, I have had shake days all other days. so this consists of a shake for Breakfast, 6 almonds as a snack, shake for lunch, boiled egg for a snack and then a healthy colourful 600 Cal meal for dinner. I can tell you what, after that cleanse day, the shake was oh so delicious.

Today I have weighed in as I couldn't help myself.

85.6kg.  That means that in 6 days, I have lost 3.4kg!!!! absolutely fantastic news. I couldn't be more happier with that.

Day 1

Day 1....

Today is the day. I weighed in at 89.1kg this morning. I will do the measurements tonight before heading off to the gym for a short workout. 

Breakfast: I forgot how sweet and creamy the Chocolate shakes are...yummm. I also had accelerate tablet and Ironix something (not the best part to the morning). 

Emotions: I am feeling quite excited to be starting this, but I also am getting quite depressed on how far I have to go. My goal weight is 75kg, I was hoping to get to this within 8 weeks, but 14kg is a bit ambitious in this short time-frame.  I can only give it my best shot and put in all my effort and see how I go. 

Morning Tea: 1 coffee (yes, I actually had a coffee and I didn't enjoy it) and 6 natural almonds. 

Lunch: woot woot... another delicious chocolate shake. 

Emotions: Well, I am anxious to see results. I am very impatient when it comes to anything especially starting new diets and waiting for the results. Normally if there is no movement in the scales, I give up and stuff my face and then start all over again. I don't want to do this anymore. I want to eat clean, I want to excise and I want to look FABULOUS!

Afternoon Tea: 6 almonds - I am so hungry I can eat 6 horses! 

Dinner - apricot chicken & salad

So the day ended quite pleasantly. I didn't indulge in the cupcakes I cooked for the kids tonight, I didn't have another coffee and I think I drank around 3lts of water. I am completely happy with the way my first day went. I can't wait for tomorrow.

Waiting Game.....

So, I have been waiting rather impatiently for my products to arrive, which I ordered last week. Hopefully I get them in the mail today. I'm excited about blogging my journey as well. 


I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to start using these products. I have used it before (a few years ago before the birth of my second child). I had amazing results, well 5kg in one week was quite amazing! It seemed to clear my skin, I felt more aware of my surrounds, I could concentrate more and I was full of energy. Why did I stop you ask? I wasn't sure how the products would affect my growing bub at the time. There were certain elements of the program that you weren't suppose to take whilst pregnant and/or breastfeeding and for the cost of the products, if I could do it all, I wasn't going to bother paying the high cost to do a half job! 

I am feeling excited and a little bit anxious all at the same time. I know that giving up my coffee is going to be a huge sacrifice and I am sure as hell going to need panadol by the end of the first day to cope with the withdrawals. But hey, there are worse things in life than giving up coffee. 

I hope the postie brings my much needed supply today!

First thoughts

So, this is my first ever blog!  

I want to log my thoughts and feeling throughout the next 30 days as I embark on what I hope to be a great weight loss experience. I know there are going to be ups and downs and I want this blog to help me through those hard times. I want this journal to motivate me and help me keep going. 

I have ordered an Isagenix Pack. A 30 day nutritional program to assist me in my journey. It consists of shake and cleanse days. My blog will continue from day 1.

My aim75KG! 

Why am I doing this: I want to be healthy, I want to be able to run and enjoy spending moments with my kids, I want to be able to fit into a bikini and walk down the beach with confidence. I want to be that sexy wife that every man wants!

I am currently sitting at 88.9 kg. The heaviest I have ever been. I am struggling, I will lose a couple of kg and then they come back on. I know the culprit, food! 

I will log my daily food, how I feel and the exercise I carry out, so from week to week I can see where and when I am either going wrong or I am doing right. Fingers crossed this is what I need to help shift those kilo's.
