Day 60! 29 to go!

I'm starting to write this in my last leg of this Challenge. I am to the point where I truly believe with everything in my soul in this product. If you have ever had a health problem that made weight loss complicated for you, you know what it is like to be down and discouraged day after day.  I am going to briefly touch on that and these are my personal results  no where are these promised to anyone!

As far as my edometriosis. For those that don't know it's a complex female issue that affects reproductive and hormone issue in women who have it. I could go into the technical terms but I had a Dr. explain it to me in English that I could get ha ha. Imagine your Uterus as a 5 gallon bucket now once a month try filling it up with a pressure washer.. You get crap everywhere!! Along with that those cells don't know they didn't make it into the bucket so they still flare up and cause lots of fun as if they were in utero. (Hope that helps a little) It causes fertility issues in most women who have it and lots of pain in about 90% of women who have it although some extreme stage 4 cases don't have pain at all it's like the body adapts to it. So, this has been plaguing me for quite some time and some days makes it simple task painful. Diet control is a big issue, staying away from inflammatory foods is supposed to help but until recently I didn't ever notice a difference. Since starting Body By Vi I have noticed the normal bloating and bowel issues I have are calming down. Even times when the pain is still bad it is still more localized to the abdomen rather then the leg cramping and general all over soreness.Since starting this I have had ZERO migraines & I am a on the floor in a ball in the dark until I can sleep it off migraine person when my hormones are involved. I have been able to keep up on the cardio without alot of pain although I did attempt some Zumba and paid for it as usual.  The fatigue and sluggish ness is GONE! Not one day since I started have I spent the whole day curled up with my heating pad. In fact its packed up in the closet! This is something that has stayed plugged into the outlet next to my bed for at least 3 years. Sad but true!***I am not a Dr. so I can't say for a fact Body By Vi is what is doing this, However I will say I have tried almost every remedy Homeopathic and Traditional Medicine and haven't gotten great results. The closest I have gotten was for 18 months I took the Lupron Depot shot, which is menopause in a tube with a very large needle lol. It stopped my pain and everything but it came with some nasty side effects and after I stopped the shot the very next month BAM my symptoms came back. So it wasn't a long term solution. I have a new appreciation for people with Lupus or Fibromyalgia. It's hard to describe to people what it is like when you look perfectly fine on the outside but feel like your guts are being ripped out on the inside. It makes it just as much of a mental problem as a physical problem.

So moral here.(yeah that wasn't really brief but..) Finally having my diet under control is making a huge impact.  Even though we are eating one meal a day besides our shakes I notice that our entire shopping habits have been changed. We weren't giant junk eaters to begin with but we are trying to ditch the processed foods and stuff like.. don't eat any white at night, those carb cravings are only given into during a lunch break lol and NO fried AT ALL. Although I wouldn't mind some of my mommas fried chicken and mashed potatoes! I feel a cheat date coming on!! But I also know that as long as I am sticking to my routine and getting in some exercise at least 4 days a week that a cheat won't kill me.

I know I am coming to the last 30 days of my 90 day challenge. I am having serious doubts about meeting my actual set goal. I had a number in my head that I really wanted to be at then pushed another 5 lbs past that for my official goal. I guess just to see if I can do it. I blew my inches goal out of the water already so I already feel like I did it! Although I think my main goal was to finish it. No Matter What. Complete the 90 days no excuses. I now feel comfortable stepping up the exercise to meet my goals. I have already decided what my next goal will be set to.. I'll reveal it on my 90 day blogs post. Happy reading please continue to send me your positive feedback. I really like reading your questions and do my best to answer them correctly. After all the whole point of this is to give an informed statement to the product here.

Day 60
