Plexus Slim Challenge Day: 26 - 29

Day 29: 4/18/16

Measuring Day



Hello all! Measuring day is today! My stats look good and I am feeling good :) Pictured above are my results but for those who want to see it written out:

Weight: - 2.2 lbs
Hips: - 2 inches
Thigh: -1 inch
Chest: 0 change

 Plexus Slim

I think I might actually keep up the Plexus after this challenge is over, it seems to be giving me good results with weight loss. I might even get my husband on it, if we can afford it. I am going to keep working out and see if that improves the results even more.

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 25

4/14/16

Plexus Slim

Good evening, everyone! I am really late on the blogging today, for not even supposed to be blogging anyways, I am sure keeping a good daily record, lol

I was awful with my water today since I went food shopping. Always am bad on the water intake when I go out of town. I did manage 44 oz of water though, so that is more than I usually manage on these kind of trips. 


My special Drink: Caramelized Honey Frappacino 

Okay, whenever I go out of town, I ALWAYS stop at a Starbucks and pick up a drink. Well, today was my first time out of town since I have come back from vacation and since I have been taking the plexus slim, I have only been drinking water and the plexus in the am. That is it. No sugar drinks at all. No teas, or coffee or ANYTHING besides water and Plexus. This was a personal choice and not required but heck, if I am attempting to get 100 oz of water in, why let anything else distract me? 

The results? My god, it was so sweet! My stomach was so upset at me and made me thankful that I only got a small size. I ended up sharing with my daughter and she thought it was the best thing ever, lol

What I learned? My body has been detoxing from sugar without me paying attention since I am not a big sweets fan in the first place, I have noticed that I don't really find desserts appealing unless I am really in the mood. I don't want a dessert every night and I feel fine when I skip one. I guess my wallet will be happy now that I can't really handle Starbucks anymore but my mood will sure be sad. We shall see if this is just a phase or if I am just over the really sugary stuff. 


Workout?

I was so busy today with the shopping and sorting of my food that I will call that my workout. Walking around the store counts as well, lol, it was not the amazing workout that I have been doing these past two days but I think it is okay to let my really sore muscles recover for the day and to pick up some workouts tomorrow.

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 24

4/13/16

Plexus Slim

13 oz of Vanilla Almond Unsweetened Milk, still most likely the best thing I drink all day 


Work out!

Guys, day 2 of working out again and I am feeling awful but amazing, I am still shaking from sore and used muscles. Drenched in sweat and wanting to just pass out on the floor! I haven't felt like this since the beginning of Mountain Mamas. Here is what I did today:

Warm Up

Full Body Resistance Band Workout

Cool Down and Stretch

I had to use my green band on the workout and I felt so weak! I can't wait to get back to my red band and feeling strong again. On the plus side of working out at home, I can workout in just my bra and underwear and it doesn't matter, rofl!!

Okay, I know I said I wasn't going to blog unless it was on Monday but I wanted to share that I worked out today! I feel like a freaking limp noodle!!!

I feel so great after finally pulling off an official workout after over 4 weeks of just basic walking, laundry and cleaning.

Here are the videos I did:

Plexus Slim Challenge Days 20 - 22

4/11/16

Plexus Slim


I am happy with my measurements and weight today! Here is a break down of my stats from day one to current, today:
 
   Waist: - 2"
   Hips: - .5"
   Thigh: Same
   Chest: Same
   Weight: -0.6 oz

After some gains, there are losses and now I am less than my current weight from I was starting! All of this with little to NO exercise! Only drinking the Plexus Slim and 100 oz of water per day (on average, lol, a couple days didn't make 100).



Remember, I am no longer blogging except on Monday's because that is when I will notice or see changes in my body.

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 18

Day 18: 4/7/16

Plexus Slim



I can't believe it has already been 18 days! I ended up switching over to plain vanilla unsweetened almond milk and it was so depressing. I can't wait to switch back to coconut!

I helped a friend clean out her storage unit and that was a great workout! I was in the sun, getting some fresh air and sweating!

I have been asked by a couple people to talk more about how I am feeling while taking the plexus. To be honest, I haven't noticed any changes that I can thank plexus for. I know that drinking the water is a great way to flush toxins and other crap out of my system and when I missed the 100 oz for two days straight, I ended up feeling really crappy even though I took my plexus.

I ended up with two days of bad head aches, feeling thirsty and cranky. Today I drank over my 100 and I felt awesome!

So far my results and thinking are that water and being active is helping me more than just the plexus by itself. Although, if I see any losses on the measuring Monday then I will 100% give that to plexus since I am not actively working out or stressing over what I eat.

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 17

Day 17: 4/6/16

 Plexus Slim



12 oz of my almond coconut milk and tomorrow I will be finishing it off. It will be a plain unsweetened vanilla this time. I am really liking the unsweetened milks since the plexus is so sweet.

My water intake suffered a little these past two days and I can really feel a difference. I have had headaches and been a little more tired. My bathroom breaks are not as clear as they have been but I will be working on getting my water back up to 100oz tomorrow!

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 16

Day 16: 4/5/16

Plexus Slim



Good evening everyone! I am exhausted today! Went to sleep at 2 am last night and woke up at 7:30 am to get my son ready for school. I already got comfy in bed so this blog will be missing the pictures until tomorrow when I am on my actual computer vs my phone.

I took my slim today with 12 oz coconut almond milk. It was really delicious and I was sad when it was gone. Drinking the plexus in the mornings has really helped me out. I have a big issue with not eating before I clean or workout so when I drink the plexus with my milk then I know I am at least putting something in my system!

I had the thought the other day that I should share with everyone that I am still nursing my daughter and so far I have not noticed any weird affects with her while I am taking this stuff. No weight loss, extra hyper energy or loss of appitite, lol

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 15

Day 15: 4/4/16


Good Morning Stats

Good morning everyone! I am actually feeling really good today. I think it is because I am feeling so much less stress! Talking and blogging REALLY helped my stress level go down and I am almost done cleaning for now!!!

So I have some results going on for this week. I am down an inch on my waist and I have a small amount of weight loss. Seeing how stressed I was between both weeks, this is great.

Focusing on Feelings

Things I have noticed 3 weeks in, thanks to stress going down: More energy, sleeping much better, my body odor is less, my body is still flushing things out in a healthy way.

Yesterday and today I have actually worked out into a sweaty state and it feels wonderful and energetic. I noticed that my arms seem not as strong so I am going to start doing more resistance band work at home to get back to where I was. This is going to be happening!! I can focus myself vs spring cleaning and it is getting me excited! Now if only the kids would be positive and help me out,

What do you want to read?

I know a few people read my blogs out there and I want to know what you want to read about! Please comment or message me about what you want to read in my blogs. I want to report what people actually want to know since I am starting to just want to post that I drank my plexus, lol

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 14

Day 14 4/3/16

Plexus Slim

13 oz Coconut Almond Milk and still delicious!



Not the best

So today was full of tiring and not so great things. I worked my way though a lot of it but it could have been much better. I did start a Tupperware party so that was something positive, lol

I woke up and started deep cleaning my oven so I didn't really eat or drink anything until 11 am when I drank my plexus. I didn't eat until after 2 pm so today was a really bad day on that end. I also wanted to have a chocolate cake so I made one, lol!! It was delicious! Only had one slice so that was good of me.

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 13

Day 13 4/2/16

Plexus Slim

Whoa, you guys. This milk is so amazing!!! I am so in love with it and I just had one glass today! When I mixed 13 oz of it with plexus and drank it, I had a wonderful coconut after taste and the level of sweet was perfect. If only it was cheaper. This is going to be a rare treat for me.


Feeling Better

I feel much better after venting so much on my last blog and I actually got a full night's sleep last night. I spoiled myself this morning with cinnamon pancakes and bacon. I have had the windows open so I could enjoy all the fresh, warm air and I have a yummy pot roast in the crock pot. 

I took the time to speak with my husband a bit more about some of the things I am stressed over and that really helped me as well. I am still stressed out and feeling anti social but it is not as bad as yesterday. 

Also, please remember! I only weigh and measure myself on Monday's. I feel like some people who ask me about my results don't bother reading my blog, lol

Plexus Slim Challenge Day 12

Day 12 4/1/16

Plexus Slim

Finished off the chocolate Almond milk that was in my fridge and turns out it was 16 oz. I find that I really don't care for the chocolate anymore so I went to the store and bought some unsweetened Vanilla again.


Things with me

I have been under a lot of stress lately. I feel like crud all the time and I haven't been sleeping well at all. I have declined back to a state of mood swings that remind me of my post partum depressant days. I am avoiding leaving the house unless I absolutely have to. I have missed out on three events that I normally look forward to but I can't stand the idea of being social with others. 

I am struggling to just breathe through it all. I am sick of worrying about little things. So the point of venting all this? I am thinking all of my stress and anger is blocking a clear judgement of any effects that the Plexus might be having for me. 

I have been following the 100 oz of water and I do feel nice drinking all the water. As for feeling more energetic? No, but that is because I am not sleeping properly thanks to all my stress. If I was not so stressed out and worried about everything then I am sure I would be feeling better and upbeat. 

I freaking HATE not working out and the only thing that is holding me back is myself. I could workout any time but I decide to just sit around and be angry at the world or have to constantly clean my apartment. 

I will try to get rid of my stress and then I will be posting more positive results.
