Triple Threat Day 1

Day 1 on the triple threat was actually easier than I expected.  I started with Thermogenic pill at breakfast and lunch, a fat fighter at dinner and I only got one of the greens in which was the one at breakfast.  Today I weighed in at 219.4, so it is heading in the right direction.  I will say that I tend to not drink many fluids at all and spend most days slightly dehydrated, well on ItWorks they really push water, half your body weight to be exact.  I am most excited to say that I actually got all my water in plus a little extra.  This is HUGE for me, mostly because typically when I drink fluids it involves diet soda because I love the fizz, so I am really happy already!

Cleanse Day 2

Well for some reason my post didn't post yesterday, so I will update on the second day of the cleanse and my first take on starting the triple threat.  To start with the cleanse, when they say gentle they aren't kidding, I didn't really notice anything at all.  As of this morning I am at 220.2, so not a huge change in weight either.  If you asked if I thought it was worth my money, at this point I would say no, but I know that this is just my opinion of my results.

On to the triple threat, this morning I took my Thermogenic and drank my first Greens drink mix.  Well the Thermogenic looks like a horse pill but it goes down easy and didn't leave a gross aftertaste. The greens is green but doesn't have a bad taste, it is a little flat but not bad.  After the initial taste I added some OJ based on another blogs comments and that helped but I am sure the sugars in the OJ are not good.

As for diet this morning I started with a slice of whole wheat toast and a tsp of peanut butter, I know you are supposed to follow a more paleo diet but I am not an egg person and am incredibly picky so there will be some adjustments.  With that said I still expect some results, maybe not to the degree that others see but something because it will be a lot better than what it has been.

My ItWorks Cleanse

Well today I decided it was time to take control!  First let me say, I am not a distributor for ItWorks so if you wanna buy it you gotta look elsewhere as I get mine through a friend.

I spend a lot of time traveling for my job and have a tween and teenager at home, so finding time and energy can be difficult.  Not to mention packing meals when you are in a car for 5+ hours at a time can be problematic.  But these are really just excuses, I love food an all the food that isn't good for you.  My favorites are white carb and sugar, so it really is no surprise that I am considerably overweight for my 5'3" frame.   I weigh in at 220.6 lbs to be exact.

So my friend started selling and promoting her ItWorks products and I got curious.  You see, I have lost weight before using the B12 and phentermine with low calorie paleo diet but I have the will power of a sweet young puppy, which equates to very little.  After talking with my friend I ordered the triple threat which consists of their greens drink mix, the Thermofit and the fat fighters.  I also order d the cleanse to kick it off.  

So here we go, first thing Saturday morning and I shake it up.  My first impression is it burns a little going down, but the taste is pretty good.  The burn is coming from the strong citrus flavor.  If you have ever had concentrated lemonade that didn't have much sugar, that is what it tastes like.  Not bad but I am glad it is only two days.  It does sort of remind me of that old lemonade and cayenne pepper cleanse that used to be really popular.

I will try to let you know how it goes from here, fingers crossed this will help me get back on track.  My first goal by the way is 199, I want to be under 200 lbs for the first time since my son was born 16 years ago.
