Oh Yeah ! Bring It On !!

Day 1 is over and it was sooooooooo easy.  I'm half-way into day 2 and still doing great.  Loving the product and 2.6 lbs down.

                   Started at 235.4 lbs. and here I am at 232.8 lbs. after the 1st day.

I measured today and I couldn't believe how big I am.  How could I be a  42/ 46/ 52 ?  Or how about a 16 inch upper arm with a 29 inch upper leg and a 16 1/2 inch neck!  What happened to that 115 pound girl ??  She's in here somewhere.   Clearly,  even with the illness(es), I've been in complete denial.  Plus, on top of all this, I'm letting my hair turn it's natural color.  Have I lost my mind? NO!!!   I'm just keeping it real!!

Waiting..............

Am I still excited about changing it up?  ABSOLUTELY !

I've decided that I'm going to start on the day that I have my next "blood-letting" !  Seriously, I have a ton of tests on my blood about every 30 days.   It includes something called a CBC with Differential, some kind of Sedimentation Rate, a C-Reactive Protein, and a little thing called a Metabolic Panel.  I'm due to have it done somewhere around  January 28th.  It's strange to be saying that  "I can't wait to have my blood drawn".   I'm already excited about what my results will be when I have it drawn 30 more days ahead in February.  I am hoping for a huge improvement.  This is going to make "blood-letting" fun !!  

Cheers to the 28th !

You is Kind. You is Smart. YOU IS IMPORTANT.

I'm important?   Yes, I am.

To see why I even question whether I am  important, check out the section About Me .
Additionally, I'm depressed, and I look like it.  I've decided that I'm not going down without a fight.  I'm headed into my 50's kicking and screaming.   Yes, it may be surprising that I have not yet reached age 50 since I resemble someone older.  I'm changing it up!  I've decided that there will be no  picture of me in the dictionary (if we still have those) under the word "sick."   I will NOT be the poster child for Fibromyalgia or Psoriatic Arthritis.

I DID IT!!  I signed up for the Advocare  24-day Challenge.  As I try the products, I plan to review them in the section Advocare Reviews.    My daughter, Shelby, has already started the Challenge and has shown great results.  My products were delivered today, and I am extremely excited!!!

My plan is to blog about my progress, menu-planning, how I like and react to the products, weight loss, and whatever else lays on my mind.  So Beware!

Days 1 - 10 :  Cleanse Phase.....................being full to the brim with toxins, this should be interesting!

I can't wait to get started!
