Month 7 Update .....

Today, March 18, 2014, is the end of 7 months on Plexus Slim and Accelerator (and several other Plexus Products) .... and I am STILL down 21 pounds.   I am a bit sad that I haven't lost any more weight this month .... but on the other hand, I have not GAINED any weight this month and I did go on a week long vacation to Pensacola, FL where I pretty much ate what I wanted all week.   

Back home .... back on the lower-carb eating .... back to drinking lots of water .... and looking forward to Spring and Summer!!    The GOOD NEWS is the 21 pounds down in 7 months is right on track for 3 pounds/month .... and that is fine with me!!

I still have about 90 pounds to lose .... but I am headed in the right direction and nothing but time ahead of me!!  The Slim and Accelerator combo make it so EASY to lose weight so I do not find myself thinking "OMG ... another 30 months of this??"   I'm NOT on a diet where I am denying myself all the things I want and constantly craving those things!   I AM eating differently now because something in my body chemistry makes me WANT to.    I want to eat healthier.  Physically want to eat healthier .... it's the mental part that I am having to learn to deal with.  I am USED to eating certain things in certain situations or restaurants .... and I would look forward to those things .... or seek out these things in times of stress.  

For example:  When we go to Pensacola, I always want to have the seafood ... but I have always had the fried versions ... LOVE fried shrimp po-boys .... love fried shrimp ... love coconut shrimp .... and there are lots of fried seafood dishes to be had in Pensacola and all over the South.    But none of it tasted good to me this time.  And I have never been a grilled fish type of girl ... in hind-sight now I wish I had tried all the various grilled dishes they also had available ... but I went to my old stand-by favorites .... then generally couldn't eat it all and didn't feel very well after eating it!!     At least I was able to totally avoid the desserts ... the wonderful Key Lime pies at the restaurants on Pensacola Beach ALWAYS tempt me from afar .... but this time, not a bit.    I was too full from the fried stuff I attempted to eat. 

We did manage to do a pretty good job changing the foods we munch on while traveling ... no more Chips and cookies ... bring on the raw veggies and jerky and nuts!!    Small steps ..... The big deal is that I don't miss the chips and cookies at all ... and I prefer the veggies and nuts!

So ..... I'm learning to eat differently.  After 54 years of eating the way I have been eating, this is a challenge!!  I still want convenient .... but now I want it to be healthy.  I still eat emotionally .... but a part of me is able to avoid the stuff that is bad for me.  How Plexus Slim and Accelerator are doing this for me, I cannot explain!!   But I am so glad they are!!!

Here is a full length pic of me taken in Pensacola.    I don't have anything to compare it to because I did NOT take my sponsor's advice to take BEFORE photos .... so this is just one of my DURING photos: 

I can see a difference in my lower body and my jeans and shorts all attest to that ... I have lost weight and inches from the waist down ... and that is a great thing for me!!!   I'll look for an older full length photo, but in most of them I am hiding behind other people at least partially!!

Thanking Plexus Slim and  Accelerator for giving me a new lease on life!!
