The secret of my success and October Giveaway

When I started losing weight, it was as if something just clicked.  I was serious.  I ran a sucky 10K race, and was overweight.  I felt and looked like I was wearing a fat suit.  Instead, I was just fat.  So I set out a new exercise plan, and decided to watch my diet more closely.

To kick off my new program, I did the Shakeology Cleanse.  I lost 7 pounds with the cleanse, awesome!  I have been drinking Shakeology daily for breakfast as a meal replacement.  By drinking it, I have gained so much more energy, reduced my cravings for junk food, and lowered my cholesterol.

Shakeology is a delicious, yummy treat for breakfast.  My chocolate shake in the morning truely tastes like a dark chocolate Frosty.  It is gluten-free, using all natural ingredients, and low on the glycemic index.  I know of people using it who have had their diabetes improve, digestive and IBS symptoms improve, and cholesterol improve.

Here's a short video about Shakeology:

So to share with you my success, and to celebrate my new blog, I've decided to have a giveaway! I love giveaways, just as much as I love blogs! I've actually one a few giveaways. (There are real people on the other side of the Internet!)

What is included?
9 packets (3 for each day) of Shakeology
6 bags of Green Tea
Instructions for the cleanse

What is the Shakeology Cleanse?

The Shakeology cleanse is not fasting. It’s a nutrient dense way of eating for 3 days that allows your body to re-energize. The clean, simple, easy to digest food allows your body to process waste… and the fiber in the salad and shakes act like a towel in your system for a squeaky clean start to your diet or to break a plateau. It’s a cleanse that gives you the nutrients you need.
You get around 900-1200 calories a day (depending on fruit intake) if you follow the plan, so you won’t be a zombie for three days, but it can be slightly difficult at first. Don’t plan on working out too hard during these days due to the calorie intake. The cleanse can also be modified to 1 or 2 days to fit your liking or schedule. It’s not meant to be done for more than 3 days.
Now on to the cleanse basics!

3 SHAKEOLOGY Shakes a day

I actually plan on doing another cleanse after my half marathon to jump start some serious fitness and to keep me on track for the holidays. So enter to win and you can join me. Or, go ahead and buy some Shakeology thru my website on home direct, and if you win, pick out a workout video. Either way, I plan on doing some Shakeology challenges to keep people motivated during the holidays, so think about trying it. If you win, no need to do it as a cleanse, you can use the shakes as a meal replacement or a snack on a busy day!
