Last year, when I was steadily losing weight, I was losing about 8 lbs a month... Seven lbs in one week is CRAZY! There is nothing to attribute that weight loss to except for Advocare! So seriously if you want to get healthy, lose weight, and feel AWESOME in the process check these products out!

Challenge: Missing coffee this morning.

The AdvoCare 24 Day Challenge:Day 5

Spark is giving me AMAZING energy levels!

We're on day 5 of the challenge and I am feeling so awesome! The biggest difference for me has been my energy levels. I used to have this daily roller coaster with my energy going from low when I woke up, to high after my coffee, to low after lunch. And now Spark has seemed to really help even-out my energy level throughout the day. I am feeling more focused at work and no longer having that afternoon "I Can't Concentrate" feeling.

I am really starting to get curious to know if I am losing weight and inches too. Just the increased energy I am having is enough for me to say this cleanse is a success but if I end up losing a few lbs and/or inches that would make it an even better success.

But don't take my word for it ...
