Hey Everyone!

I am so very sorry that I have not been diligent in recording my progress, I feel awful! I have been studying and trying to keep up with the random things life throws at me. But! I have got my newest stats for you!

Weight: 138lbs (Not much of a change unfortunately)
Body Measurements (Inches)
Neck: 13 1/8
Shoulders: 42 1/4
Chest: 38 1/4
Mid: 28 1/8
Waist: 33 1/2
Hips: 39 3/4
Thigh: 22 5/8
Calf: 15 7/8

I have been eating healthy as of late, it did take me a little while to really clean it up and not give into stress eating plus there was Thanksgiving that really was a challenge not to eat everything until I was so stuffed! I'm going to work hard until those final measurements at the end of the year! There is 4 weeks left!! I am hoping to see myself down to 130 lbs. I will work hard!! I have been eating salads, fruit and veggies as well as watching how much I eat. I actually went through and made boxes of salads that were the correct serving size (1 cup) and I added a nice marinated slice of chicken with it for a healthy, light lunch.

Another thing I want to add! I am the kind of person who works to do things herself, I hate taking any kind of medicine because I feel like its somewhat like cheating since our bodies are designed to take care of itself. I like to think of my body as a machine, its only as good as I make it to be. If I take care of it and feed it the right fuels it will work as its supposed to. However, that being said, I have started to take a few products from Advocare. I do not consider it as a medicine, a pill or a magic charm. I have done research into it before deciding to splurge and give it a shot to work. The products are natural, vitamin filled and not what a lot of companies sell as a "magic-will-do-wonders" product. One of my friends got me a few samples of Advocare's Spark (I mentioned it in one of my posts) and I loved it! The contents are vitamins and they help boost your system up and energizes you. I have never consistently gotten up before my alarm clock before or when it did finally go off jump out of bed ready to go. I am on the 24 Day Challenge, day #12. Even if I don't loose weight on this challenge, I honestly feel good. I feel healthier. Even when I caught a cold over break, I was 99% functional unlike normal (Normally I would be lethargic). I'll be posting before and after photos at the very end as well as my stats :)

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
