A friend recently introduced me to Advocare which is a company "specializing in health and wellness, weight management, vibrant energy and sports performance". I started reading about the 24 Day Challenge and decided to "take the challenge".
A lot of people have said that they have increased energy after the 24 days, in addition to losing weight and inches. I'm hoping for all 3 :)
Day 1
30 Minutes Before Breakfast: Mandarin Orange Spark
Breakfast: Fiber Drink (I am NOT looking forward to this tomorrow!), banana
Snack: 1 cup strawberries, hard-boiled egg
Lunch: Salad (romaine, baby bell peppers, cucumbers, Bragg's Raspberry vinaigrette), grilled chicken, baby carrots, hummus
The dressing is supposed to be sugar-free, but I just can't eat that again. So...I'm going to cheat and use Newman's Own Honey Mustard from now on because I think the salads will go down a LOT easier!
Snack: Apple slices, natural peanut butter (no sugar added)
Before workout: 3 Catalyst
Workout: Ran 2 miles
Dinner: Rotisserie chicken, brown rice, salad (with Newman's Own Dressing!), 1 Omegaplex
Bedtime: Herbal Cleanse Tablet
Nothing earth-shattering today except that all the water I drank went right through me. I've been drinking at least 64 oz of water most days for the past 3 months, but today it was like I just started drinking tons of water. That and the fiber drink - YUCK! Although, I guess if the cleanse does its job in ridding my body of toxins, then it's a price I can afford to pay.
Another thing I noticed was that running was a little easier. I'm not getting my hopes up in case it's a placebo effect, and it was only 2 miles because I had things I had to do. But I'm really excited about running getting easier as I lose more weight, and today was a little taste of that.
