As you may have read here, I have started the Body By Vi weight loss shakes. Let me begin by saying I was scared to death I was going to hate them and not find one I like. BUT, I found plenty that I LOVE, and I mean LOVE. I am downing them. An added plus: it's hot outside and I get to have a refreshing shake two times a day! My personal fave is the Oreo Cheesecake. Ruthie has to try them and she has been saying, "Oreo Cheesecake AGAIN!?" I just love it. Makes it even better when you can have that for breakfast! The other one I have to say is RIGHT beside it in flavor was the Strawberry Cheesecake. Funny thing is- I am not even a huge fan of cheesecake! On this one I added four fresh strawberries, 1/2 a packet of strawberry flavoring that came with the shake mix, and 1.5 tsp of low fat cream cheese- YUMMO! Oh my, it was soooo delicious. I have been snacking healthy and I have been trying my best to cut my meal portions down during my one actual meal a day. I am down to one Pepsi a day as well. If you know me- Pepsi is my downfall. I LOVE me some Pepsi, but I think one is pretty good. :) Maybe I will get down to zero, who knows! I walked only two times this week. I feel pretty guilty about that and one day I only had one shake b/c we were out allllll day long, and I wasn't aware that I would be. So, with me still drinking one Pepsi, missing one day of shakes, and only working out two days I STILL lost........ FOUR POUNDS! Whoop Whoop! I was so scared to step on the scale this morning b/c I knew if I didn't see any results I would be bummed out. I realize that one week is just a beginning, so I was super excited to see four pounds gone! Let's just say it gave me an extra boost this morning! I am so excited to continue this journey.
