What started in January of 2015 is a wrap.
Now it is onto something new! I've started one of those overblown, flush/detox/fat burning/multi-level-marketing/all-hype systems. It is a 9 day system, which is really 11 days, from Isagenix. Why they call it a 9 day, instead of 11. cause 9 is a single digit, and "look at the results from our 9 day system" - the research is questionable, if not outright laughable. The material is all about convincing you it is working, and getting others involved.
Write How you feel, it says. Even provides a tape measure! Also, a grid to write in numbers, and track progress...i'm not doing that.
Why am i doing it? Why not! Cause I can? How bad can it be? we'll see.

So i measured around my problem area - about belly-button height, around the love handles. Will report loss - so nobody gets nauseous.
I'd imagine going from a regular diet to this, there would be a tremendous amount of weight loss - but i'm coming off the colonoscopy, so i've already got the pipes cleaned. My take is that they have quite a bit of purge in their formula.
Schedule looks like this:
s s c c s s s s c c
s = shake c = cleanse
shake days are couple of pills, a cleanse liquid, two shakes, prescribed snacks, light meal, lots of water
cleanse days are couple of pills, 4 cleanse liquid, prescribed snacks, coffee, lots of water
Apologize ahead of time if i'm grumpy.

Started the year knocking on the door of 200lbs (again) - the time spent in florida got me losing weight - then the food poisoning took the weight down a bit more. I've been a bit more cognizant of what gets eaten, to avoid anymore "distress" - so let's call it 180lbs as of today.
I have no weight loss goal.
is this some sort of ploy to publicly state a goal doesn't exist to make it more likely to achieve it?
Or is it some MLM trick to state goal afterwards, and claim that it got blown away? Or is it a reference to something someone else posted?
follow along - i'll also be building up the EVO, which should be fun.
