I’m trying not to shed a tear as this is my last Shaklee 180™ post! While my 6 month journey with the is coming to an end, it doesn’t necessarily mean that my journey to loose weight and get back in shape is over.

Thank You Shaklee 180™ for the last 6 months!

So this is it! The day I report my final Shaklee 180™ results. Like I said above, my weight loss journey is far from over. I knew that my overall weight loss goal could not be accomplished in a healthy fashion in the 6 month time frame. So I choose a goal of at least 40 lbs, which is half of my goal of 80 lbs. Not overwhelming myself with an unachievable goal in 6 months I think was the right move. I knew a 40 lb loss would be doable if I stuck with the program and got active. That is exactly what I did to my best ability…

First off before I reveal how much I lost during my 6 months participating in the Shaklee 180™ program, check out this side by side close up comparison of how I looked when I started, and an image of me from last night before I headed out for the night. Do you see a difference?

I admit, stepping on the scale and measuring my inches this morning made me quite nervous. These are my final Shaklee numbers! While I knew the program was working and I was loosing weight, I was nervous to see if I reached my goal or not…

Why Have a Support System?

This month I was tasked to think a lot about supper and the support I’m receiving throughout this journey of weight loss with Shaklee. I’ll be posting a video soon to give shout outs to those who have been amazing and supportive through the past few months. I’m not just talking supportive of my weight loss though. Trying to balance life, work, parenting, blogging, and a social life can get daunting. There are people out there who are beyond awesome and help keep me in check on way or another, or who offer their support while I go through this crazy life.

First off, if you are trying to stay active, it is always great to have a workout buddy! Now my son isn’t exactly a workout buddy per say, but it is a lot more fun to go on walks with him in the stroller! He gets such a kick out of being outside and looking at the scenes around our town, it drives me to keep walking and keep going rather than heading back home after 30 minutes.

Stay Active this Summer

First off, I’m super psyched that summer is finally here! This means that the days stay light longer. That’s a major plus for me considering I work long hours during the day.

So one of my favorite ways to stay active in the summer is to take my son for long walks around our community. We pack up the stroller and head to the playground! Have you ever chased an energetic two year old around a playground? Forget the long walk to our destination, the chasing alone is a work out! Running around with him not only keeps my heart rate up, but I feel GOOD afterwards. Sure, the humidity gets to me and I feel sweaty, but you know what? I’m keeping active, which is all part of my weight loss plan.
So why are walks in the summer time the best? First off, I don’t have to deal with the cold weather! I can throw on a tank top and running shorts and just go go go. Doesn’t matter if I sweat! That’s a good thing right? For walks in the winter I have to get all bundle up and who knows how far I can go with all the snow on the ground. Plus walking means I can spend time with my son. Of course when he is in the stroller I can speed walk, but it still time spent with one another.

A Positive Outlook – What I Love About Myself

So often in life I always focus on what I don’t like about myself, which really causes nothing but negativity. Every time I look in the mirror, I need to stop dwelling on what I dislike about my body. It’s a process, but I’m learning. This month I tried really hard to look in the mirror and take notice of what I LOVE about myself. I talked a little more about this in my monthly video.

I sat down and started to list of what I do like about myself. I soon realized that most of the features, characteristics, and aspects about myself were all personality related. So redo! Looking in the mirror, I picked out what I like: my eyes, my smile, and my hair.

As I’m sure you know by now, back on March 1st I officially started the  for weight loss. I can’t tell you enough how much I love that Shaklee 180™ uses all natural ingredients in their meal replacements (plus no GMOs!!) for this plan. Yes, I’m going to stress that each time I post an update!

If you want a quick run down of the program, I recommend reading my March update first. This gives you a better idea of what exactly how I go about this program.
