ARTEE KUMAR: Advocare Weight Loss

I started the Advocare 24 Day challenge March 2, 2014 with the goal to lose the weight I gained from my pregnancy. I lost 8 lbs in 24 days but what was more amazing is that I lost an additional 12 lbs after and I still continue to lose weight each week by eating clean (I cheat), working out and staying on a few advocare products. I have never felt so healthy and I am even off my blood pressure medication I was put on after I delivered my daughter.

Why Advocare? I was skeptical at first but I kept seeing the "24 Day Challenge" everywhere and seeing amazing before and after pictures. I gained 60 lbs. from my pregnancy. I lost 30 lbs. but could not lose the 30 lbs. I had left. Diet and exercise was not working. I decided that once I was done nursing my daughter I was gonna give it a try.

This is not a quick fix or a magic pill. It takes work, especially if you are not used to eating healthy. It also is not cheap but its worth every penny for the results.

Do I have to workout during the challenge? No and to be honest I only did a few times during the 24 days but I do workout 3 times a week now. I recommend doing some sort of exercise even if its walking and of course you will get better results if you do.

So what is the 24 Day Challenge? The first 10 days is the cleanse phase which consist of a fiber drink, meal replacement shakes, vitamins and eating clean (unlimited fruits, veggies, meats, protein). Days 11-24 is the max phase - you eat the same as the cleanse phase but you add in additional vitamins and probiotic supplements.

If you are up to the challenge you can order the 24 Day Challenge HERE or if you are in the Greater Houston Area I can meet you at a central location to deliver the challenge to you so you don't have to pay for shipping. If you have any questions I will be happy to answer them. You can ask me anything and I will trymy best to answer it. You can contact me at artee0404@gmail.com

These are the products I stayed on after the challenge:

Spark (Days when I decide to skip coffee - Watermelon & Mango Strawberry flavor are my favs)
Catalyst (I take 2 the days I workout)
Meal Replacement Shakes (perfect breakfast for this busy mommy - Berry flavor since I don't eat chocolate but I heard Chocolate Mocha is good)
Post Workout Recovery (I have been doing a lot of lifting in crossfit so I decided to try this out)

Life after the challenge:

I am still amazed by my results and that is why I am sharing my story. I come from a family with lots of medical issues and I want to do everything I can do to be healthy for my daughter. I crossfit 3 times a week and make healthy food choices. I plan to do the 24 Day Challenge again on July 1st and will be documenting it on this blog. My good friend and her hubby started the challenge today - Read about her journey HERE (She's a photographer so her pics are perfect!)
