I have two great strides of progress in this journey to health and I'm so excited!!!!
- My skin is clearing up amazingly. I'm still having breakouts, but not nearly as many and they are clearing quickly. There is still the scarring that hasn't healed from previous breakouts, but that's hopefully going to eventually lessen as well. I did one microdermabrasion which helped with skin tone and texture. I'm getting another tomorrow and hoping that will lessen the scarring as well.
- I've lost weight! For the first time in 2 years, I've lost a considerable amount and kept it off for several weeks now. I'm soo excited for this! I haven't noticed a real difference in my appearance, but my mom has said that it's noticeable. So now I'm on a trip to lose even more weight! And I'm hoping that it will be a fairly easy process...
I can't pinpoint exactly what has caused these. It could be the pills, it could have been the diet, it could be other things.
I know one change that I am making in my life is drinking this juice called MonaVie, which is a blend of 19 different fruits including acai (an amazing Amazonian berry). It's shown considerable health benefits in many major research areas, including lessening the risk for cancer and heart disease. On top of that, many of its major benefits are directly against diabetic complications. So I am completely sold on this juice! A lot of the people drinking it are sleeping better, have more energy, have lower blood pressure, plus they just FEEL BETTER! I'm lovin' it.
