Advocare 24 Day Challenge Meal Plan: Max Phase

 24 Day Challenge Meal Plan: Week 2

Why would I want to do this, you ask??

Advocare 24 Day Challenge: Day 11

 DAY 1 of Max Phase

WOOHOO!!!
Cleanse phase is over!!! 
I feel AMAZING!!!!
(Sorry I just can't help myself I have to scream it from the roof tops.)

I no longer feel bloated and my stomach looks flatter. I got to eat actual food which is a blessing cause I LOVE FOOD!!! I didn't have to eat salads every day or anything like that. It really is about eating clean and watching your portions. You don't need to eat every carb you see. Even though sometimes I wish we could without consequences. :)

I lost 2.5 inches and 3.5 lbs in the first 10 days!!!

Week 1 Meal Plan

Week 2 Meal Plan

I never knew that Advocare existed, until about a couple months ago and of course I was a little skeptical of if it really worked. You see all these products on TV, online and on store shelves. Honestly, how do you know which to pick? The awesome thing about Advocare is we are tested for all banned substances by a company called Informed-Choice. You can look at one of the products called Catalyst (my favorite product) here and see the batch number, when it expires and when it was tested. Advocare wants the safest and most effective products around. 

With all that being said, I am so glad I was introduced to Advocare. It will forever change my whole family’s life for the better!! Everyone wants what’s best for themselves and their families. Honestly, what do you have to lose by giving it a try? Some weight, inches? What do you gain? I’m going to say lots of energy and eating better. Advocare is all about making you, a better you. 

Now that the cleanse phase is over, I now start the Max Phase which is going to give me the best tools to achieve my next weight-management goal.  I am wanting to get under 200!! I know I can do it!!

My First Advocare 24 Day Challenge: Day 3

Cleanse Phase: Day 3

So I'm on Day 3 of the Cleanse(there's 10 days total). I am feeling great!!! Who knew that your insides could so clean and that I could have so much ENERGY!!

Energy is my big thing. I have 3 kids, 2 under the age of 5, and they are very active. They definitely keep me on my toes during the day, but I always felt sluggish. NOT ANYMORE!!! Sorry just super excited to have all this energy. I usually lay down when the boys do in the afternnon, but since starting the Challenge, I haven't thought about it once.

 That's amazing to me.

So far my meals haven't been bad. Day 1's dinner was a little bland, so next time I will definitely being adding a little more seasonings.  Day 2's dinner was yummy. I threw my chicken, taco seasoning(homemade) and salsa in the crock pot and let it cook. It was done by 11/12ish so I packed my husband's and I's meal. I decided to attend a great function for AdvoCare(so I needed mine for on the go) and got to listen to one of our amazing Doctors, Dr. Aija Brameus. She did a great job explaining our products and I got so much information. I learned new things about the products that we take each day and how we benefit from them,if taken on a daily basis.

I definitely recommend starting with the 24 Day Challenge, so that you are cleaning out all toxins from your body the first 10 days, then giving your body back the nutrition it needs on days 11-24.

Are you asking yourself why would I take supplements?

Did you know if you wanted to get all the Omega 3's your body needs, you would need to eat fish every week every day!! Who does that? Or who wants to do that? I know I don't :)

How about the calcium you aren't getting? Your body takes that away from your bones and teeth which will result in osteoporosis if took much is taken from your bones.

Today is the day to make lifestyle adjustments!!! Order your challenge here or email me at kirstingervais@gmail.com if you have any questions or concerns.

What are you waiting for?? Start your New Year's Resolution NOW!!!

I received this complimentary of Influenster to review

 

Avon ANEW Reversalist Complete Renewal Express

 

I didn't see much of a difference when I applied Avon ANEW Reversalist Complete Renewal Express to my face. As being only 27, I don't have many wrinkles just yet. I may have a few gray hairs from my kids though. Below is my before and after picture:

Do you see a difference?

Puffs To Go

This has to be one of my favorite products. I know it's just tissue but it doesn't get dirty in this package unlike unwrapped tissue I've thrown in my purse or van. I keep a pack in my van always cause I hate those big boxes that slide everywhere then when you need one, nowhere to be found. This is so much nicer to have available. Plus Puffs is my favorite tissue when I'm sick. It's so soft and doesn't make my nose turn red after blowing all day like others have.

Breyers Gelato Indulgences

So the whole family tried Breyers Gelato Indulgences. I bought the Raspberry Cheesecake one. It was very creamy and raspberry, but I couldn't really taste the cheesecake in it. I was a little disappointed in that part since I love cheesecake. I would suggest making it a little more cheesecake flavored. :)

Ivory Original Bar Soap

I was trying to figure out what craft to do with the ivory soap, but was having a very hard time. I have a 1 & 3 years old so it has to be fun for them and safe. I started looking around on interest (yes I'm an addict lol) and came across blowing up the soap in the microwave, making bath crayons and a few others. We decided on blowing up the soap. My 3 year old absolutely loved this idea and it's great for sensory play.

Shell Fuel Rewards Network Card

I don't go to Shell very frequently but this is a great idea to draw more business. I love the idea of earning while spending. Now a days gas is extremely expensive and every penny truly does count. I have a Honda Odyssey and it takes about $70 or more to fill it up. So even if we only saved a couple cents a few times, it will eventually add up in the long run. 

Neosporin Neo To Go! 

 

 This is a great compact first aid item. I love that I can put it in my purse and it doesn't take up any space. It's easy to use also. One squirt on a small cut or scrape and you are good to go. My little one hurt himself while we were on vacation at a water park. I pulled this out of my purse and spray it one time. Mommy had cured his boo-boo in a matter of seconds.

Gillette Venus Snap with Embrace Review

I received the Gillette Venus Snap with Embrace for Influenster for my review.

Gillette Venus Snap with Embrace Review

Who doesn't want a small, compact razor for on the go? I know I do.

Here's a couple of things that you may want to know about Gillette Venus Snap:

• Mini handle that’s easy to grip and convenient to store
• 5 blades to get virtually every hair
• Water activated Ribbon of Moisture for a smooth glide
• Fits any cartridge

Disappointment about Gillete Venus Snap:

• Price

The only thing I don't like about this razor is the price. You will pay around $10 for this on the go razor. Yes it's convenient,  but I'm not sure I'm willing to pay that much for ONE razor. Would you be willing to spend that?

I do have to give Gillette for a portable and convenient razor. It is very compact and can honestly fit in your pocket if you needed a quick shave in the ladies room.

I'm just not that "in love" with this razor. Do you feel the same way or do you like it?
