Give it just 4 days - plus e+ giveaway

Mike and I have officially been back from vacation since waking up Monday morning and we have not wasted any time in getting back on the gluten free and healthy eating bandwagon.  Happily we can already see and feel the difference in just 4 days.

We started our week with day 1 of a 9 day Isagenix program as an accelerated start to a 30 day program.  What is a 9 day Isagenix program?  Well first of all, it's 11 days worth of Isagenix products.  No, I don't know why they don't call it an 11 day program.  The 11 days consist of 7 shake days and 4 cleanse days.

Here is a link for a description of the 9 day program, shake days and cleanse days.

Our shakes days are a little different from the document because we have modified them for our needs and lifestyle.  No program will work if you can't make it fit your needs and goals. We follow the basics, but add additional snacks and enjoy our main meal for dinner instead of lunch because we like to eat together. Our cleanse days are a little different as well because we've incorporate a little something just about every hour, following a special cleanse schedule designed by Kjersti Cote, the daughter of Isagenix founder, John Anderson.

As of this morning, we've completed 2 shake days and 2 cleanse days. We are feeling great, less bloated and more energetic. We eagerly stepped on the scales and were blown away by our results.  Now, I have to say that scales are not a very good measure of progress when you are on a mission to get healthy.  Inches lost are a much better indicator of progress because fat loss and muscle gain might cancel each other out, but a pound of muscle is much more compact than a pound of fat. Having said that, unfortunately we don't have time to measure on a Friday morning. Though the inches released are obvious in how our clothes are fitting, the scale will have to suffice for today.

How awesome were our results???  I'm not going to tell you, but if you can guess you could win a 6 pack of e+. A $24 value.

For a chance to win leave a comment with how many pounds you think Mike and I (combined) released over the last 4 days.  I've rounded the number to the nearest whole number to make it easier to guess.  That way you don't have to worry about fractions of a pound. If you guess the number correctly you will be entered into a drawing.  You must be a resident of the US or Canada to win. 1 winner only. If no one guesses correctly, the closest number, without going over, will be used for the drawing. And please consider following our blog.

Information on e+ can be found at this link. http://www.mloux.isagenix.com/us/en/sharetheshot.html

Drawing will be on Sunday at noon EDT.  Winner will be announced on the blog, along with our 4 day results, shortly after.
