Hey guys it is March 22nd 2020 and it’s a bit crazy here on planet earth! My last Blog on health was about my new workouts with Fit 4 Moms, with Shelter in place here on the central coast my new workout club is doing online workouts. It is such a great alternative, you can join the facebook live recording or watch and workout later at any time! Granted It is not quite the same as being with everyone outside but I still feel like I get a workout.
About 3 days before things got extreme with Covid-19 I ordered a 30 day cleanse from Arbonne through Jamie Jenkins Arbonne consultant. What a perfect time to start something I can focus on, put effort into instead of getting wrapped up in the mass hysteria all around me. My Cleanse is as follows
- Digestion plus powder in an ounce of water. I then drink 8 or more ounces of water. This product has soothing notes of ginger and chamomile, it delivers pre-biotics, 3billion CFU of probiotics and enzymes to help support digestive function.
- Protein shake ( 2 scoops of protein powder contains important nutrients like Dietary Fiber, vitamins A,C,D,E Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Folate, Biotin, Calcium, Iron. Only to name a few.) I add 1 scoop of greens balance which contains a spectrum of proprietary color blends of whole fruit and vegetable powders, delivering antioxidants, phytonutrients and fiber. A ¼ -½ scoop of fiber which helps support gastrointestinal health, regularity, and healthy glucose levels. It also supports the cardiovascular system. I also add frozen berries, spinach, almond butter and ice blended to make one delicious shake. I usually make enough for two on my working days. I will have a very small lunch or just the second shake.
- For dinner I have cut back my portion size and try to do very healthy low calorie meals, i.e. grilled chicken lightly seasoned/small amounts of rice or other starch and a good portion of veggies. Grilled salmon or rockfish with similar sides
- I am not to eat past 7pm ( I have been only 50% on that one) Right before bed I have the Arbonne detox hot tea. A caffeine free herbal tea with 9 botanicals that support the liver and kidneys.
I just started implementing workouts in my garage, I work out right before dinner. I include a circuit of jumping rope, lunges across the driveway, free weights with the BowFlex, then a jog around the block, ending it with abs and stretches/yoga. I enjoy the workouts and hope to start seeing the fruits of my labor soon. I have been working this cleanse to the best of my ability and I appreciate my strength for cutting down portion size and eating more healthy! I am grateful for being introduced to Arbonne and knowing they have achieved their Certified B Corp is very impressive! Thank you Jamie Jenkins Independent Consultant. Jamiejenkins.arbonne.com
