Advocare 24 Day Challenge Update: Day 11

Today was my official day to do my second set of weight and measurements.  I will confess I have cheated a few times throughout to look at the scale.  I am impatient.  This is not a secret.

I also must confess my little cheats to you before we go on.

-I ate a piece of sausage on Mother's Day

-I ate 1/2 a slice of a blueberry lemon bread I made to test the recipe before for my guests 

-I ate one tortilla chip

-I ate one cube of cheese off of Addy's plate before realizing what I was doing 

But honestly I can say that that is the ONLY cheating I did!

I have been pretty amazed at how I am feeling.  I know I mentioned this in my last post, but my energy levels are so great!  Jon has even been enjoying the Spark for an added energy boost.  

I am rarely hungry and have not had any huge cravings in moment of weakness.  My only moment of sadness was at our Mother's Day brunch/buffet where everyone was eating an wide assortment of food.  I stuck to my plan of veggies and salad.  Somehow the entire buffet at Meriwethers had NO CHICKEN.  This is the day I ate the piece of sausage! 

Here are a few snippets from my measuring session this morning:

"Are you SURE you are measuring the WIDEST part?"

"Are you SURE the tape isn't tight"

"Let's remeasure, that can't be right"  (remeasure)  "THERE IS NO WAY!"

Here are my results in inches/lbs lost in the first 10 days of the 24 Day Advocare Challenge (yeah right, I'm not putting my actual weight and measurements on here)!

Pounds Lost: 8.2

Inches Lost

Waist: 2

Hips: 1.5

Neck: 1.5

Thighs: 1.5 (this number is combined from both thighs so approximately 3/4inch each)

Calf: 0

Chest: 1

Shoulders: 2.5

Arms: 4

Total inches lost: 14

I more than excited about these results!  I have been loving the products so much that I decided I definitely want to keep using that.  That decision led me to the decision of signing up to be an Independent Distributor with Advocare.  It made sense for me to pay the small fee to become a distributor if I would get all my products at a discount!  Please feel free to email me at lcvalleymom@me.com with any questions about Advocare.  And here is the link to my store if you ever decide you want to try!  I also will be having some of the most popular items on hand, so you can email me to check first if you need anything!

Don't worry, my blog is not going to become all about Advocare.  But I will be posting consistently on my weight loss journey because I know a lot of us mom's may be on the same journey.  I also may be posting inspiring stories from other women and their weight loss journey over time.  I have a few women already willing to share with you!
