Reflections

It's FRIDAY!!! Is anyone else as excited as I am that the weekend is only a few hours away?! And a bonus here is that the weather is going to be GORGEOUS! I think we are going to take a drive through the mountains and look at the beautiful fall colors. smile emoticon

On mornings like this I like to take a moment for myself, drink my Shakeology and think about the past week; what I did well and what I need to improve on. Was I patient and kind to my husband and daughter? Did Igive my family my time and energy like they deserve? Did I stick to my meal plan and do my workouts? Did I get things accomplished around the house or did I waste time?

I've found that after I started drinking Shakeology for breakfast every day that my junk food cravings have dwindled significantly! I'm not saying that I don't have cravings...but I'm not reaching for a piece of chocolate every 5 seconds! And my energy level has boosted enough to allow me to get my workouts in every day, cook a healthy meal for my family AND get my home, church and work assignments done without feeling like I'm just barely getting by!

To be honest, I had NO intentions of drinking Shakeology after my first 30 days because I didn't know how I was going to afford it. But then I started to SEE the benefits and I made the decision to figure out how to work it into our budget. It costs about $4 a day and I realized I was going out to eat WAY more than I should...so I decided to take that money I was using for fast food and put it towards something that would be healthy for me. And I'm SO glad I did! ‪
