Giving Doubters the Raspberries. . .

. . . wishing I could do sound over the blog.
Come to think of it, there is probably a way, but I don't have time to work on that right now. (I do need to get a little more "tech-y" with my blog, however. Spice it up a little!)

I'm in kind of a rebellious, in-your-face mood today. I'm happy, despite making a rough decision last night. I'm excited about things to come--which helps me know that I made the right decision last night. But I'll get to that later, or tomorrow, whenever I feel like it!

This is what I want to talk about. I lost two pounds over Spring Break. Yes, I did. And that's about usual for the way the eating plan and life on Xyngular products has been going. But here's the thing. I didn't stick to the plan. I took all of my supplements, and I ate healthily and smart(ly?). Yes there was the Great Sun Chip freak out, which taught me that my issues and habits from the "old Debb" still linger. But I was home with Mama and Nilly's (That's what we call my sister, Nicki.) cooking, and even some of Julie's, and I may smart choices, but allowed myself some of mom's homemade fried rice and teriyaki chicken, some crock pot macaroni and cheese, two pieces of pizza, some Xaxby's chicken fingers and wing-chips, and even some heavenly angel food cake dessert (not all the same night, of course). And it was all yummy, and I didn't over indulge, and I lost two pounds.

The reason I bring all of this up is because there has been detractor and detractor (not to be confused with "De plane, de plane!") that has congratulated me on my success, but has questioned whether I'd have to do 8 day cycles the rest of my life. I usually, in my head, get very 5 year-old, and say, "I will if I want." But they've questioned the ability to sustain the lifestyle and maintain the weight. Well from March 27-April 7, not only did I maintain, but I lost. The reason is simply the Xyngular products have changed my metabolism. And this program has changed my thinking and cravings. So I know when maintenance time comes, and it will be a long time--I still must lose the amount of a healthy 15 year-old (just guessing at the age)--I will be able to handle it. Even with little panics and meltdowns. (Blasted Sun Chips!)

I've made the right choice for me! And I could not be happier!
Happy Tuesday, friends!
