Open letter to our fans…..

Dear Friends,

I am so excited.  As many of you know, I started Journey to Fit almost 2 years ago.  I have loved this journey.  There’s been lots of goals reached, weight loss, and just recently a first for the Journey to Fit team, pounds gained!

All of this started with It Works! Global, home of the Ultimate Body Applicator.  And yes, I still continue to use and support these products.  I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to give up my Greens and Wraps.

Then Dave and I were introduced to ViSalus.  Dave has had amazing results.  I love the idea of the 90 Day Challenge and have seen some results myself.  My overall health has improved and I really love how my sleep has improved.  My weight loss has slowed down and after lots of research and discussions, I have discovered the milk intake is too much for my system to take.  I was not very happy about this.  I will continue to use the shakes but I’m having to scale back the amount I am drinking.  Disappointed?  Yes but hey, it’s ok.  Dave is continuing with his journey and I will continue to support and encourage everyone to try it for themselves.  I firmly believe in their products and there’s a lot of amazing success stories out there.

So with all that being said, my focus with Journey to Fit is to provide everyone with support, knowledge, and products that will help support personal goals in health and wellness.  This is about helping people be healthy, lose weight, and overall live a healthy life.  Let’s be honest, as much as we would love for each product to work for everyone, that is not case.  Everyone’s body functions the same but different.  We have to use the right tools and information to support our body.

Many of you may think I have lost my mind, and that’s ok.  But my goal is to offer support and information to help people with weight loss and a healthy lifestyle.  I have recently been introduced to Plexus.  I did hours, and I do mean hours of research on this.  I purchased their trial pack to try.  I was thinking, “I have nothing to lose at this point.  I’ll try it and see if it’s really “that good” as I’ve been told.”  Well, let me tell you……this blows my mind!!  After 7 days, I’m down 3.5 inches and 5.8 pounds.  It is by far the easiest thing, I drink the Slim in the morning which is mixed with water and take an Accelerator.  That’s it.  That’s all I’ve done besides work out on my regular schedule.  This is something everyone needs to try.  It was first used for diabetics.  Results were so positive, they explored more options.  AND the best part, it’s all natural.  That got my attention right away.

10 Reasons to try the Plexus Products

  1. Proven Ingredients. The Plexus products contain Alpha Lipoic Acid, Chlorogenic Acid, Garcinia Cambogia, Whey Protein, Green Lipped Mussel, Aloe Vera, Bulgarian Rose extract, French Lavender extract, Grape Seed Extract—proven ingredients that address key areas of vitality and weight loss.

  10. Support Breast Health. Plexus offers products that give every woman an opportunity to look after her breast health in a loving, gentle and extremely effective manner.

Along this journey of helping others, I have found one of the biggest struggles people are facing is diabetes.  This health issue is growing fast and effecting people of all ages, even kids.  AND yes, Plexus IS safe for kids!!  As soon as I read success stories and talked to a few people who have experience such positive results, I wanted to share this product with people who are struggling with getting their diabetes under control.  Will this work for every single person out there?  Well, as much as I’d like to say yes, the answer is no.  BUT guess what.  You don’t know unless you try and think about how amazing it would be if YOU were one of the success stories.  There are different sample packets available so there is no commitment required to try the product.

Here’s our Plexus website; journeytofit.myplexusproducts.com

Go to it and check it out.  They have a lot of great products and I’m super excited to be trying a few of them.  But I’m more excited to be sharing these products with my family, friends, and current clients.  Plexus offers a 60 money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose when trying these products.  Oh, do you have a Health Savings Plan with your insurance?  Plexus may be covered!  Order a 7 day trial pack and see what happens.  I want everyone to try this.

I’m asking everyone to PLEASE go check out the website and let me know what questions you have about Plexus.  If you are struggling with weight loss or living healthy and you want to make a change, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, get in touch with me!!  There is NEVER any pressure to buy anything.  I want to see you reach your goals.  That is what is important to me.

We look forward to helping You reach YOUR goals!

MIA…..just a little.

Well, we went a little MIA for the past week.  Not really, there’s been a lot going on.  We were dealing with some personal medical concerns last week and I really needed to spend my time focusing on doctors, research, and myself so we could make the right decision and move forward.  But no worries.  I took the last few days to relax, pamper myself a little, and take some time to refocus.

We will be back on regular schedule tomorrow and look forward to bringing everyone lots of continued information about health, wellness, and over all healthy living.

Try-It Thursday – 2/7/13

I love a good smelling house.  I love walking in, taking a deep breath, and feeling at home.  You can set the mood in your home just by the scents.  Whether you are looking for a romantic feel, a relaxing and calming atmosphere, or fresh baked cookies or apple pie.  There are scents out there for everything.  I use to be a candle junkie.  There was always a candle burning somewhere in my house.  I still enjoy burning a good smelling candle but then I found Scentsy.  Now I find myself turning that warmer on every morning as soon as I get up.  I LOVE Scentsy.  You get amazing smells at a fraction of the cost AND since it’s a warmer, there are no flames.   They are much safer around kids and pets.  If you haven’t discovered it yet, I highly suggest checking it out here.

I have a few favorite scents but love to change things up.  I’ve recently discover simmering different spices on the stove top.  I can remember growing up, my mom use to do this often.  I’ve done the oranges and cinnamon, cloves, and a few others.  I love the strong scent this gives off but it’s not something I want to do everyday or all day long due to it being over an open flame.  However, I discover a new one and had to share.  I’m a little addicted to this one and it’s a good thing I don’t keep lemons in the house or this might be simmering everyday right now.

lemon

Here’s what I use;

1 cup of water

2 sliced lemons

3 springs of fresh rosemary

2 teaspoons of vanilla

Within 5 minutes of simmering on the stove, the whole house smells amazing!!  I love it.  Now I just need to find a Scentsy scent like this……

Try-It and let us know what you think! 

Tasty Tuesday – 2/5/13

Recently I’ve been looking for new recipes.  As a family we have been eating healthier and at home a lot but there is still room for improvement on what we eat for dinner.  We are big pasta and cheese eaters.  I’ve been trying to cut some of this out with some new menu selections.

Upon my webs searches, I stumbled across this awesome website 24/7 Moms  Let me just say, AMAZING!!!  I’m obsessed with Pinterest.  I know this.  I spend a lot of time on the website but in my defense, I’ve found a lot great recipes, saved money on home projects, planned parties, and so much more.  BUT I have now found a new LOVE website and have been spending a lot of time on it.

I know today is tasty Tuesday and I should be sharing a yummy new recipe idea with everyone but upon looking at this website, there are so many yummy ideas I couldn’t pick one.  You have to go check this website out.  And make sure to bookmark it.  They cover everything from recipes, frugal living, and planning parties, to organizing, time saving tips, coupons, cleaning, and marriage.

What does stress do to our body?

Here you go…….

Reducing stress may be hard at times but think of how positive it would be for your body.  When you find yourself stressed, take several deep breaths.  Close your eyes for a few minutes and focus on relaxing.  Remind yourself to let things go.  It’s not worth the negative effects.

Think about it….
