Shaklee180 Three Month Update Numbers Y all

This is a sponsored post as part of the Shaklee Corporation blogger program.  I have received free products, online support and incentives for participating in the ShakleeCorporation blogger program. My opinions are my own.

Exercise-wise, I am loving Running consistently again!  Happy dance/run! :)  And I love my Pilates classes.  These are some of my favorite things. However, I did swim my first round of laps for the season and that was just like riding a bike. I LOVE swimming laps for a great Summer exercise. So I will be mixing these up for sure. 

Here I am in my element. :)

Running May 2013

This is the update post on my first three months on the Shaklee180 Blogger Program. I have loved this experience.  Each day I love the Shaklee180 Meal Bars and Smoothies.  Occasionally, I do not have them.  Overall, I have been consistent on the plan.  I love the Peanut Butter and Chocolate Bar for Breakfast with my Coffee and Water.  If I miss a big hot breakfast, we have breakfast for dinner. :) And I skip the biscuits and gravy. :)  I do have a little bacon and eggs.  Or lean ham and eggs with a half a serving of cheese. I don't miss toast.

For lunch or dinner, I have a Shaklee180 Fruit Smoothie including the protein powder and spinach with almond milk.  I really enjoy these.  They hit the spot when I am not hungry or when it is hot outside.  And I make them an ice cream consistency and eat it with a spoon sometimes. Treat for sure. Yes, I have continued Gluten Free for eleven months now and I love it.  Again, I am not celiac so there are some splurges. Yet, overall, I love the benefits of the gluten free diet for my body.

Since I love to really hold myself accountable with a little photo for you.  Here we go, this was taken this morning after Pilates by a little lady who (gasp, they are still out there) didn't know what an iPhone was.  Her kindness, to offer to take this for me so I wouldn't have to take a mirrored version myself, well made up for her lack of techyness. :)

See, why I work at all of this!  Pear shape.  These are, as my sisters and I say, "birthing hips."  Thank God since these carried Twins full-term.  Since the Twins, they HAVE seen leaner days, which we are well on our way to seeing again soon. Right!

Shaklee180 asked us to share what we love about ourselves, I do love my smile and eyes and right here, the way my waist looks tiny when I toss my hands on my hips in the "don't I look great" even though I am not near finishing my goal yet. :)

One thing I learned this month is that I do better maintaining and losing my weight if I have my meal during the day. :)  However, I do enjoy sitting down to a candle light dinner with my family any chance I get.  So, I do this some and notice the results.  So I mix it up a bit.

It was a great month.  I was a little slow losing, I did lose and I am thrilled.


This pic confirms that I lost just a 1/2 inch in the hips this month.  Y'all a loss is a loss.  At this rate, catch me next Summer for my final hip goal reached. :)  We are going to work on it until we get it! :)

And I did lose 1 inch in the waist!  Yea, waist. Thank you.  So you see, I will be quite busy finishing the next three months of the Shaklee180 journey.
