Eating Healthy Tastes Good

One of the biggest shocks about taking this step into learning about nutrition was that eating “healthy” did not just mean eating salads for the rest of my life. Coming from a life where eating Quesadillas, Grilled Cheese, Mac N Cheese and basically ANYTHING that contained cheese to thinking that I was supposed to eat SALADS was appalling! Thankfully when I did my first 30 Days To Healthy Living with Arbonne I was coached step by step into realizing that EATING HEALTHY ACTUALLY TASTES GOOD. This program is not some fad diet where the slogan is “Lose weight fast.” They teach you how to eliminate food from your diet that is not doing you any good and replace it with food that will help you. Some of the symptoms that show that you need a detox are:

• Bloating
• GI Issues (hello I felt this)
• Acne
• Depression
• Food Sensitivities
• Headaches/Migraines
• Gallbladder issues

HELLO YOUR BODY IS TELLING YOU THAT IT NEEDS HELP! LOOK WHAT YOU ARE FUELING YOUR BODY WITH!

I was shocked when just after my first week my “fat pants” turned into my “only wear with a belt pants.” During my first cleanse I lost a total of 8 pounds and I was able to keep it off. Now this was something that I could stand behind! I am kitchen intolerant. Meaning being a bomb housewife who lives in the kitchen making extravagant meals really is not in my future (sorry Mikey)!! So I definitely was not going to go out with their “avoid list” and their “ok” list and come up with extravagant meals, I would have ended up with lettuce with some wack dressing. But, THANK YOU ARBONNE they give you a breakdown of all the recipes week by week for the full 30 days! Yes I know other companies do that but not a lot of them will fully back up their products with a 45 day money back guarantee. NOW THAT IS IMPRESSIVE.
