Nine Month and "New Product" Report ....

I started the "New Product" .... which as of yet remains un-named .... and is a companion product for Plexus Slim (not to be taken with the Accelerator+, but in place of Accel+) .... 2.5 weeks ago.   I immediately noticed I was sleeping better.   I had already been sleeping better on Plexus in general ... but this is even better!!!   And when I wake up in the morning I AM AWAKE!  BOOM!

My weight fluctuates ... a lot ... 3-5lbs up and down.  That is why I say I need to see a new low weight TWICE on the scale before I claim it.  When I started the "New Product" I weighed in and I was 5lbs up from my claimed low weight.   I am now AT my low weight and the scale is stuck at that weight at the moment.  This is a bit of frustration for me .... but better than seeing it go up 5, down three, up two, down 4, up 4, down 3 ..... etc.    This is the end of month #9 and I am still at 24 pounds lost.    I am very glad to be at 24#'s lost .... would just like for it to be MORE .... will continue trying the "New Product" because I have only been using it for 2.5 weeks.     So .... I can say that I HAVE lost 5lbs on the New Product .... and they are staying off ... although they ARE 5lbs I lost before. 

INCHES are the real story.  BEFORE I started Plexus in Aug. 2013 .... I had my measurements taken.  Then .... BEFORE I started the New Product, we did measurements again.  I had lost 30 inches while on Plexus Slim and Accelerator+ for 8 months.  We measured again yesterday and I have lost 1.4 inches MORE.  But I really think I have lost more inches than that in places we don't normally measure!!  We measure neck, shoulders, biceps, waist, hips (at widest part), thighs, and calves.  There's LOTS of territory that is NOT covered by these measurements.  I have noticed that the area between the widest part of my hips and my waist is shrinking ... especially right above my Butt .... I call it my "Butt Shelf" .... not sure what other people call it.  Well mine is disappearing. 

 

Yeah .... THAT PART!!   This isn't a pic of me .... but it is the pic I think of when I think of "butt shelf".  Some things you just cannot un-see once they are seen!!     Okay  ..... so .... mine is shrinking.    I also think the rolls of fat between my bust and waist are shrinking .... we don't measure that part either.  They are still there, when I sit down .... but they seem to be "less there".  

So .... the inches are coming off ... and I hear that from LOTS of people.  The inches come off but the scale doesn't move.  Well at some point, it HAS TO!!  And I am sure it will!!!

I had also quit one of my Blood Pressure meds approximately 4 weeks ago as it was making my legs hurt at night (and it raises blood sugars).   I have been monitoring my BP several times a day since then and it is staying in a very nice range.   I actually think the "New Product" is helping MY BP.     I don't think that is the case for everyone .... but at least one other Plexus friend has noticed the same thing. 

I did attempt to go off my diuretic a couple of weeks ago and that was a miserable failure.   I swelled up like a tick!!!  I had to get back on it ... and that also makes my joints hurt.  Looking for a better way .... planning to see DR. soon and ask about other possibilities.

The New Product is available to Ambassadors Only at the moment.  But I am an ambassador and I can get some for you, if you would like to try it.   It is encouraged to be taken with the Plexus Slim, but have also heard it can stand alone.  Let me know if you are interested!!  OR .... become an Ambassador yourself and you will be able to get it for yourself!  It should be available to the public in  about a month.   My email is Cincin21@yahoo.com and to order Plexus products from me you can go to http://www.PlexusSlim.com/CindyMackinnon

AS always .... if you are working with another Plexus Ambassador, please return to them to place orders or to sign as an Ambassador!!  Thanks!!  It's a Karma thing!!

My Plexus Journey Timeline .....

August 2013 ..... Bought Plexus Slim and Accelerator and used them for a month ... lost 3 pounds ... and I was ecstatic!

September 2013 .... Signed on as an Ambassador and continued to use Slim and Accelerator plus added ProBio5 and BioCleanse.  Lost 3 more pounds!

October 2013 .... Continued to use Slim and Accelerator ... and ProBio5 and BioCleanse .... Lost 3 more pounds .... Also stopped my Multi-Vitamin and added X-Factor.  Feeling really good!!

November 2013 ...Continued to use all the products of the Fab 5 ....and lost 4 pounds even with Thanksgiving and a trip to Florida.  Stayed regular during the whole trip ... unheard of in my adult life! 

ALSO in November 2013, Plexus changed the formulation of their Accelerator removing the Dark chocolate and one other compound which was causing issues with shipping to Canada and Australia ... and was also a main part of the Accelerator and why it worked so well for so many people. 

December 2013 .... Started the new Accelerator+ with the Slim .... didn't notice much difference with it .... if any at all.  Lost 3 more pounds .... so down a total 15 pounds by the end of 2013 and I was/am very happy with that!!!!   Also really started promoting Plexus and began signing Ambassadors.

January 2014 .... Most of the rest of my Journey so far has been chronicled in the rest of this Blog.  I was able to get off of my anti-depressant, Zoloft, which I had been taking for  well over a decade.  I was feeling a good 20 years younger.  Lost 3 more pounds! 

February 2014 ...  Due to Hoodia becoming a protected plant, Plexus removed it from their SLIM formulation.   This happened fairly quietly and didn't take effect until the March products of  SLIM shipped out.     I personally was very worried about this change.  I remembered seeing a "60 Minutes" section featuring Hoodia and all it's interesting properties .... the main one being an appetite suppressant.    I lost 3 more pounds ... at 21 lost now. 

March 2014 .... New Slim and Accelerator+  ..... things seem to be fine ... BUT  some customers who had started with me in December weren't seeing any results .... so I started losing customers.   I gained others.  Some were having GREAT success!!  I was still having success.  I lost 3 more pounds.

April 2014 ... The first month when I have not lost weight.  Made me kind of sad.  Then at the end of the month Plexus announced a NEW PRODUCT!!    A product which has some ingredients similar to the Hoodia removed from the SLIM and which seems to work maybe even better than the old Accelerator!!!    I am rather excited about this!!   Numerous Ambassadors were selected to test this product for 3 weeks before this announcement.  Here are some or their results:

Remember that some testers have been using this product for 2-4 weeks only.

The new product does NOT have a name yet ... and is to be used IN PLACE of the Accelerator+ .... which works for some ... but apparently not for all.   Many LONG TIME Plexus Ambassadors were VERY PLEASED with the results from this New Product.    Many like it even better than the old Accelerator ... and they LOVED the old Accelerator!   They claim to be sleeping better than ever, amazing energy, and amazing appetite control.  EVERYONE who tried it lost weight or inches or BOTH!

Now ALL Ambassadors have been allowed to order 3 bottles each to try it for themselves.   I have mine in my possession and have been taking it for 2 days now.    I'll keep you posted as to how I do.   It will be available to customers in about 2 months.   

So .... if you have been a customer of mine and liked the SLIM but didn't lose weight .... you might want to come back and try the New Product with the SLIM!!  If you were my customer, then you only had access to the Accelerator+ .... which DID work for several people ... but probably the same number of people didn't see any results.    My customers have had about a 50/50 success rate.     The old Slim and Accelerator had a 93% success rate.  I am hoping the Slim and the New Product combo will have an even higher success rate!!!

Just trying to keep it REAL, y'all!!!

Email me cincin21@yahoo.com if you have any questions .... PS .... if you hurry, you can get some for yourself ... ask me how!!!

Prescribed Meds Issues ....

Okay .... so this T-shirt post woke me up a few weeks ago and made me take a look at the Prescription meds I am taking .... particularly the part about the Hydrochlorothiazide causing high blood SUGAR. WHAT?? I have been taking HCTZ for ... well ... Forever!! So I pulled out the paperwork which comes with all my meds and WOW ... I was shocked by all the potential side effects AND the issues with possibly conflicting meds I've been taking. And yes ... I do tell my DR about... all my meds!!

Turns out that the lower back/hip and lower leg pains I have been experiencing for MONTHS with very little relief SEEM to have been caused by my Blood Pressure meds!! I had NO IDEA!! Even the Fast Relief wasn't touching it. I was taking two different BP meds ... I stopped one 2 weeks ago and my lower leg pain has basically vanished .... Hips still hurt, though. I have been monitoring my BP several times a day and the highest I have seen is 140/90 .... usually it is very close to the 120/80 standard. So I read more about the 2nd BP med which is basically a diuretic ... which I LOVE because I tend to retain water .... fingers/ankles, etc. and I decided to stop it to see if my hip pain would dissipate. Stopped it yesterday and so far, so good!! Still monitoring my BP several times a day ... and the cuff I am using keeps the readings for me to show DR at next Appt. I have yet to see if I will be dealing with swollen ankles and fingers .... hoping the SLIM and all the water I am drinking will keep those down.

So it's sort of a crazy time to start the "New Product" from Plexus .... but I am monitoring my BP several times a day ... so Yay!! I am so hoping to be pain free AND to give a boost to my weight-loss!!

It will probably take a few weeks to get the Prescription meds out of my system .... I am already noticing a difference the pain level in my legs and hips ... I am very hopeful. I have been working with a trainer, Liz Nath, and with a Masseuse (Massage Envy membership) ... AND with a Chiropractor on a weekly basis and have had little overall relief .... but yesterday and today, I am feeling pretty good ... I am hopeful!!

And if I can continue to lose weight and inches ... going off the BP meds shouldn't be an issue .... especially if I continue to work out!!

Other side effects from my BP meds: High Blood Sugar ... High Cholesterol ... Back and Leg pain .... these are 3 things I have issues with ... will be paying attention to changes ....

I think I trust PLEXUS to take better care of me.  So far the side effects of Plexus have only been POSITIVE!!
