Advocare!

So yesterday I briefly mentioned Advocare in my update on life blog, and today I wanted to expound on it a little bit more (whoa...expound) I know what you're thinking! Not another scheme, or another fad diet....well this is totally not it! Advocare was founded in 1993....and has been around every since. Say WHAT!! That's longer than any of the other companies that are floating around today. There are numerous doctors that have their lab coats on the line for their support of Advocare. Enough of the facts people....Now on to my story!

I started Advocare at a whopping 220 lbs...holy cow...that's more than what I weighed on the day I delivered my son...I couldn't believe it when I stepped on the scale. So after crying and promising myself to change, I was scrolling through Facebook, and I had been following a photographer I had as a friend...She'd post pictures of her food (which looked totally delish...) and when she finished her challenge she posted her results and I just knew that I had to find out what it was that she was doing. So I told her to call me, and tell me about it and she even sent me a free sample of Spark( which I'm totally addicted to it now) And I just knew that this was the jump start to the change that I needed for my life and my health. I proceeded to order my 24 day challenge, and I started the next day I got it(Which was a Saturday) I was that excited. I started it and I had a positive mind set through the whole thing! I was hard, I do admit, but totally worth it. I have totally changed the way that I eat...I don't drink soda, coffee or tea. I also don't eat anything fried, I try to stay away from processed food, I eat gluten free, and my biggest thing, I don't eat sweets! (huge shocker to anyone who knows me)  and I've lost 10 lbs and multiple inches... and I've gained confidence! I'm  forever an Advocare advocate! I'm totally excited to lose more, and I just feel so healthy!
