90-Day Plexus Challenge

As the end of the year begins to creep up on me, I am giving a lot of thought to how I want my 2014 to unfold.

I am excited about my jewelry business and just so thankful that I am able to focus 100% on it. I left my office job more than 2 months ago. It has been financially tough, both for me and my husband, yet he continues to support me and my dreams.

For awhile now, I have shared about Plexus and all that it has done to help me on my way to a healthier self. Let me take a moment to give testimonial to it's financial power in my life as well. I have received 3 paychecks from Plexus. Each monthly "payday" with them, I get a raise. A SIGNIFICANT ONE.

If you are looking for a way to own your own business and start building the life that you have only just dreamed of, join my Plexus team. Tomorrow, I start my Plexus 90-Day Challenge. My goal is to help my friends and colleagues get started on the path to health, wealth and happiness so that 2014 is an exciting one for all of us.

If you feel stuck, in a rut or just want a new opportunity, I would love to share what I have found with you.  Feel free to send me an email:  info@bodybyplexus.com or click here to learn more about the Opportunity of a Lifetime with Plexus.

 Happy Halloween, lovebirds.

Cold fronts and walking buddies

Bianca and I are walking three times a week and there's a cold front moving into Houston area.  Time to bundle up and wear a scarf!

So much weight has been lost and financial freedom has been attained.  In my third month, I have been able to show my Plexus paycheck to my husband and say, "Look!  I work for myself and I pay better than my old boss!"

I have the freedom to take my morning walks with Bianca, then come home and work on my jewelry.  

In July, I looked at my life and found it wanting.  I stood on faith, took a leap and found myself in the life I always wanted.

You can too.

An Interesting Way to Look at Weight Loss

Click here to read the post I shared with my fans about how I have a new way of looking at weight loss. 

With this way of thinking, it helps to cease any discouragement about slow weight loss.  Enjoy!

Jewelry and Plexus Slim

Okay lovebirds.  I have been busting my tail for the last month and a half working for myself and I have found these three things to be true:

1.  When you work for yourself, your boss is still an asshat.

2.  Bored, behind-the-desk eating comes to a halt when you are in business for yourself.

3. My dog is a weirdo.

I have never worked harder in my life as I do at this current juncture.  I have never felt the extreme NEED to succeed as I do right now.  It's a great feeling.  Scary, yes... but great all the same.

I am so busy throughout the day that I forget to eat.  Yes!  This former snack-addict forgets to eat!

Dovah, the aforementioned dog, is always underfoot and has found a spot on the hardwood floor near the entertainment center that obviously tastes delicious.  Every morning, he will lay for hours and lick a certain spot on the floor.  I don't bother him as it gets him out from under my computer desk.

I find it fascinating that I am becoming more proficient at making jewelry.  I remember when I started playing with jewelry, I thought some wraps and wire techniques were too difficult.  I am making those loops with ease now.  I love learning new things and couldn't be happier that I didn't give up.

My Plexus Business is thriving.  I now have 7 Ambassadors in my downline who I support wholeheartedly.  I have created a streamlined process that makes goings a lot easier for my team.  My 21 customers are ALL having weight loss/pain management progress and continue to endorse Plexus on a daily basis.  I couldn't be more thankful!  I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for introducing Plexus Worldwide into my life.

Life is super sweet.  I knew it would be.  <3

A bunch of wild and crazy gals

Sheesh, have I been a busy little Bumble.

Not only have I grown my Plexus business but I have sent all of my leather stock to Sherwood Celtic Festival to be put out on the shelves there!  Love my life!

Currently, I have 16 Plexus customers and 4 Ambassadors.  All 21 of us have lost weight/inches with Plexus Slim.  ALL OF US.  We all feel healthy and have such high hopes for a healthy future!  I haven't had this amount of energy and excitement since I was in high school.

One of my new customers just sent me this screenshot:

 

Yes, ladies and gentlemen.  She's lost 11.75" in one week.  I'm not kidding when I tell you Plexus is the REAL DEAL.  I call it my Life Changer because that's exactly what it does.

Are you ready to join my team and start living a healthier, happier life?  Get with me!  It's that easy!

Bianca's Weight Loss Success with Plexus Slim

I was just tagged in this Facebook post by my friend, Bianca!

"11 days ago, I started using the Plexus Slim/Accelerator combo from Plexus Slim.
This is what I've been doing:
No meal replacement, I've just been taking a "pink drink" and one Accelerator pill 30 minutes before breakfast and one pill before lunch.  Throughout the day I'm drinking a total of half my body weight in water.  I haven't purposefully changed my eating habits but, I'm finding that I'm not as hungry.
At the 7 day mark, I was down 7.2 pounds and had lost a total of 5 1/4 inches.
This is day 11, I've only lost 1 more pound in the last few days, but I've lost 4 1/2 more inches.   That's a total of 8.2 pounds and 9 3/4 inches lost in 11 days!!
I can't wait to see where I am at the 2 week mark!"

Ingredients in Plexus Slim

The first thing you should know about a consumable product is WHAT IS IN IT! Here you can find a list of the ingredients that make up Plexus Slim, the all-natural weight loss product that has helped me lose weight!

PROPRIETARY HEALTH BLEND*

Polydextrose - A type of soluable fiber

Citric Acid - Citric acid is a natural acid that is found in many fruits. It gives fruits like lemons and limes their characteristic sour flavor.

NATURAL FLAVORS*

Glycemic Index Maltodextrin - Maltodextrin is a natural sweetener.

Beet Root Extract - Beet Root is a potent and nutritious source of natural energy and vitality. It is a great way to purify and build healthy blood and normalize the pH balance in our bodies.

Stevia Extract - A sweetener derived from natural substances and approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration as a dietary supplement and for use in food.

Lo Han Extract - Lo Han Kuo is the fruit of Momordica Grosvenorii, a plant found in the mountains of southern China and northern Thailand. The plant is cultivated for its fruit, whose extract is nearly 300 times sweeter than sugar and has been used in China as a natural, low-calorie sweetener for cooling drinks, and in traditional Chinese medicine to treat diabetes and obesity.

Chlorogenic Acid (Plant Extract) - A phenolic natural product isolated from the leaves and fruits of dicotyledonous plants, including the coffee bean.

Citrin K (Garcinia Cambogia) - Citrin K is a trademarked name for a standardized herbal extract from the rind of the fruit of the Garcinia Cambogia plant. Garcinia Cambogia reduces the conversion of carbohydrates into stored fat by inhibiting certain enzyme processes. When less fat is available for use and slowed down, the body burns calories at an accelerated pace. This causes a curbed appetite and less tendency to "nibble," and an increase in energy.

Alpha Lipoic Acid - This is one of the good fatty acids produced in every one of our cells. One of its main functions is to help convert glucose (blood sugar) into energy.

Oxypregnane Steroidal Glycoside (Plant Extract) - Hoodia Gordonii is a low-growing, succulent South American plant that has been used as an appetite suppressant for centuries.

Chromium (Amino Nicotinate GTF) - This is a trace mineral that assists with burning carbohydrates and fat.

Grape Skin Extract - Derived from whole grape seeds that have a great concentration of Vitamin E, flavonoids, linoleic acid, and OPCs. Studies show that grape seed extract may be useful to treat heart diseases such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

*FREE OF CAFFEINE AND OTHER STIMULANTS.

Why Not You?

Happy August!

Can you believe that this year is flying by so fast?

We are right in the middle of the dog days of summer and boy, it sure is hot down here in Houston, Texas!

I hope everyone is staying super cool any way they can... Drinking plenty of water, lounging in the A/C and swimming as much as possible!

I'm so excited about my endeavors with Plexus Slim! It is beginning to pay off! I have friends who are having the same results as I am while taking the products. Weight loss, increased energy and a zest for life! The monetary gain is nothing to smirk at either and the best thing... I get to work from home.

I am the luckiest girl in the world! I get to help my friends and make money with a company that is all-for the success of their Ambassadors!

I LOVE MY PLEXUS SLIM!

My husband is a genius!

So... I was separating a big mess of ground beef into 1-1/2 lb. sections and putting them into ziploc bags.  My husband looks over and says, "Why don't you flatten out the meat so it'll be a lot quicker to defrost?"

Plus, check out how it stacks!  What a smarty pants!  I knew I kept him around for a reason...

Plexus Slim Review - One week

Here's a truthful, unbiased review of Plexus Slim "The Pink Drink" and the Plexus Accelerator after one week:

FYI:  I just became an Independent Plexus Ambassador.  This means... I sell the products.

1.  In one week I have gained unbelievable amounts of energy.  I do not shake nor have the jitters.  I just have the "want to" to get up, get out and get things done.

2.  I drink the "Pink Drink" on my way to work in the morning.  I notice I get "butterflies" in my stomach for the 45 minute drive.  As soon as I am out of the car, it is no longer there.

3.  I take an accelerator after breakfast and an accelerator after lunch. (Near 12:30pm)  I go to sleep at 9pm on the weekdays.  Four days out of the last eight, I woke up around midnight and had trouble getting back to sleep for over an hour.  Super annoying yet once I wake up at my 5:30am alarm clock, I feel very awake and not groggy.

4.  I am measuring my neck, waist, hips, upper thighs and upper arms.  In one week, I have lost a combined 1-1/4" in inches. 

5.  I began one week ago at 254.9 lbs.  This morning I weighed in at 249.2 lbs.

6.  I have to force myself to eat and if I ignore the feeling, I get a headache.

7.  Drinking half your body weight in water is a necessity for success with this product and I find it tough to do.  The upside is I have banned all sodas, diet or otherwise, for the purpose of ingesting enough water.

8.  The products can get pricy.  The upside to this is that I no longer smoke cigarettes which has opened up a "Get Healthy" budget for me. 

Overall, I see a difference.  I feel a difference.  I will be continuing and endorsing this product.

Success Stories & Testimonials with Plexus Slim

Check out Success Stories & Testimonials with Plexus Slim!

You are reading the blog of the newest peddler of Plexus Slim products.

After copious amounts of research, I have chosen to become an Ambassador of the Plexus Slim line of products.

I have really made myself informed about this product and realize that there are certain protocols that need to be followed if you are going to be successful with the weight loss outcome.

(1) You MUST drink vast amounts of water per day.  Serious face, I advise my clients to drink at least half of their weight in ounces of water per day.  I, myself, drink 125 oz daily.

(2) You MUST eat at regular intervals.  If you decide to take the Plexus Accelerator like I do, sometimes it seems like eating is a hassle.  Yes, you get hunger pains if you go too long without eating but food no longer has that "I GOTTA HAVE IT NOW!" hold on you.  I make sure that I eat a small amount of food every couple of hours to keep my metabolism charged.

(3) Know your body.  If you have issues with your sleep cycle or heart problems, you do not want to take the Accelerator.  It does contain stimulants and will most likely jack with you if you have any irregular body issues.  I am a heart-healthy young woman and feel extremely secure in my choice to ingest it.  Don't ever take anything that you aren't 100% sure that it is safe for you.  Period.  Bring the list of ingredients to your doctor and ask him.  Research online.  <3

Operation: Miscarriage

A week ago, my doctor told me that my 8 week old in utero baby (otherwise known as Evangeline) just wasn't growing and had a very low heartbeat and wouldn't make it.

Today the miscarriage began.

This has nothing to do with Plexus but I felt it was important on "My Journey".  Sad but important.

45 days and a pregnancy later...

It's been awhile, hasn't it?

I started Plexus Slim on 5/14 and found out I was pregnant on 5/28.  After speaking with my doctor, she advised to lay off the product because of the lack of research on its impact on fetal development.

Fast forward a month and a half.

I am no longer pregnant (sad face) but I am back on the Plexus train (happy face.)

I started up again 7/6/2013.  One Pink Drink in the morning, an accelerator after breakfast and an accelerator after lunch.

I'm already noticing a change for the better in my energy level, although some of that can be attributed to the loss of the baby.  Those little guys will drain you!

For the last two nights, I've had sleeping issues.  Yesterday morning I woke up at 3:30am and couldn't go back to sleep.  This morning I woke up at 12:30am and I'm writing this entry at 3:30am.  This will not do.

I am now a non-smoker.  After over 10 years, I never thought I could quit but that positive test had me throwing my pack in the trash.  And now I just don't want to pick up a cigarette.  Ick.

Lookie here... In my 30s and "feeling" better than I did in my 20s.  Now it's time the outside matched the inside.

Introduction & End of Week One

Welcome to my blog!  I am a 32 year old woman living/working/dreaming in Houston, TX and I am happy that you found my page.

I have struggled with weight for as long as I can remember, except for all four years of high school (1995-1999) and two years after my divorce in 2008.

I have always been able to lose and gain weight very quickly.  A few years ago, I lost 70 lbs due to exercise and hardly ever eating.  I was in a period of my life which I now remember unfondly as the "Great Depression".  I got over it and... the weight slowly creeped back up.

Fast forward to 2012.  I decide to make a change in my lifestyle and get my ass back in the gym.  4 months of vigorous 4:45am wake-up alarms during the weekdays, 45 minute cardio-fueled workouts in the morning and I lost a few pounds.  Maybe 4.  I was livid.

I went back to being lethargic and gained the 4 pounds back, plus some.  I'm 5'10 and I carry extra weight well but I don't want to be 250 lbs anymore.  My face is a marshmallow, my boobs are ginormous and my thighs get sweaty and rub together when I'm wearing a dress.  Ick.

A few months ago, my friend began selling a weight loss solution called Plexus Slim.  She was adamant about how it helped her chronic pain, as well as lose a bit of weight.  I was not interested as I had tried "diet pills" before (i.e. Hydroxicut and a few others I can't remember the name of right now.)  After she kept on me for a few weeks, I began my own research into other people's success stories with this product.  I still found the price to be quite steep but I was reminded that I have repeated the mantra, "I would give anything to be thin and healthy", and if this were true, I could afford to spend my money to meet my goal.

I have just completed the first week on Plexus Slim "The Pink Drink" and Plexus Accelerator.  I couldn't be happier with my energy level and results.  In 7 days, I have lost 3.2 lbs and 1-7/8" total from the key areas I am measuring.

I look forward to keeping you updated about my results.  I have pledged the next 12 weeks to this product.  Yes, it is a lot of money.  Yes, I could use the money for other *really needed* items but I feel my health is worth it.  Plus... I just want to feel attractive once again.
