A Better Me
My first job is being a mom. I love being a mom to my sweet baby Rhapsody. However, after having said sweet baby, my body has not been the same. Nor will it ever again be the same. I am technically the SAME weight that I was before I had a baby, but boy does my belly look way different! That's okay because my child loves me and my husband adores me. Pudgy belly and all. However, I recently learned about an amazing program called Advocare. What's so fantastic about Advocare? It's NOT a diet! I don't have to diet to feel good about myself, and my body! I don't have to starve myself or drink funny shakes to lose weight. Advocare is all about getting me the vitamins and nutrients my body needs to get healthy, supplementing my current diet. Richard and I have already made changes in the way we eat (i.e. whole grains, fresh fruit and veg, organic sauces, etc), and Advocare gives me a little lift, helping my body work its best. I just finished a 24 Day challenge, a great way to get introduced to Advocare, and lost a total of 8 lbs and 3 inches! My clothes fit better, and I feel more confident! Here's the crazy thing. I don't necessarily feel more confident because I am 'skinnier.' In fact, I can't tell (aside from how my clothes fit) that I really lost any weight at all. There is the same little pudgy belly, and bright pink stretch marks. However, when I look in the mirror I don't think "ew, look at that fatty!" anymore, because I FEEL good, I FEEL energized, and I FEEL happy. I don't even linger on the tiny bit of pudge left over from carrying my angel. Advocare just makes me feel great! Spark gives me the energy I need to wake up in the morning and begin the long day ahead of me taking care of my house, my baby, my husband, my jobs (I do tutor/cook/babysit for other people), my dogs, and my super busy life! Catalyst helps my body work more effectively to burn that extra fat when I go to the gym. Omegaplex makes me feel good, and my skin look great! I love all of my Advocare's products! And so... I sell them too! Advocare get'st to be my second Job (or 4th or 5th depending on how you look at it). This post isn't to get you to buy the products, or con you into doing something you don't want to. It's merely to share my experience, and yes, I will include a link at the bottom because what kind of sales person would I be if I didn't! If this is at all something you are interested please contact me. We can skype, phone call, email, facebook, whatever you find to be easiest.

I wanna know more! is it safe while breastfeeding? PM me :)
ReplyDeleteIt is! Obviously they say "please consult a doctor," but all of the online research I did said it was safe. As well as it isn't "diet" medicine, it is literally vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that your body doesn't "normally" get! Spark has caffeine, but I never stayed away from caffeine while pregnant or breast feeding(I love my coffee!) Less than 1% of the caffeine you drink actually gets to your BM. The one thing about Advocare is that it is a bit expensive, however, we worked out that Richard and I were drinking two cups of coffee and an energy drink a day (working out to over $5 each a day), and Spark (the energy drink) only works out to $1.30 a serving. So we spend the same/less because we cut out coffee and Redbull. So for me it was just evaluating my current condition and deciding to make small changes to allow for the 'financial' part of Advocare! If your really interested we could message on FB or I can call :)
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely interested. After we get the house done & look at what our monthly budget will look like then I will definitely buy from you if it's something we can swing.
ReplyDeleteIt's so important to me now that the kids are getting older to set a good example and lead a healthier life style. I'm looking forward to using the farmers markets this year, being more organic and green, and hopefully down the road start living off the land more. I am so inspired by the blogs I read and shows I watch late at night. lol
