Exciting! Your preparations have probably been done by now and the Turkey Challenge is about to begin!

If you are following an Isagenix 9 Day Program (or 30 Day), unpack your products and don’t forget to read your System Guide. The System Guide offers important instructions, so review the meal plans and tips and keep your System Guide handy! You never know when you might need to refer to it.

The products in the 9-Day System include:

• Two bottles or containers of Cleanse for Life®, your Cleanse Day drink to help your body naturally release impurities.
• IsaLean® Shake canister, which contains 14 meal replacements for Shake Days to replenish and revitalize your body.
• Natural Accelerator™, 60 capsules, to help jumpstart your metabolism.
• Isagenix Snacks! ™, 60 wafers, to help you ease hunger and regulate blood sugar during Cleanse Days.
• 1 Cleanse and Replenish for Life Coaching System Audio CD -LISTEN TO IT!!!!

If you are not following an Isagenix Program, make sure that you have a plan to follow and you have the cooking supplies that you will need.  Now is the time to run out for last minute preparations.

We will be starting tomorrow!  For those of you on Isagenix, Sunday will be a Shake, Shake, 600 calorie meal day. Monday will be a Shake Day too.  These two days are important because they help prepare your body for cleansing.

If you are not using Isagenix it’s 200-300 calories for breakfast, 300-400 for lunch and 500-800 for the the rest of the days total intake.

It’s a good idea to determine your snack and meal plan for the week now to reduce the opportunities to stray from the Challenge Guidelines.

Yesterday we included some tips for Snacking, here are some things to think about when you prepare your meals:  High-protein diets have become a popular way to lose weight because emerging research has hinted that protein may be able to satisfy hunger better than either fats or carbohydrates.  WebMd says, “High-protein diets may help people lose weight — at least in the short term — because dieters tend to feel full longer when they eat more protein. This alone can cut down on snacking and lead to fairly rapid weight loss. Combine speedy weight loss with the satisfaction of feeling full, and it’s easy to understand why high-protein diets are popular. Unfortunately, many people gain back the weight once the diet ends.”

Good choices include:

Nuts, Yogurt, Beans of any kind,  Lean Cuts of Red Meat, Eggs(Hard Boiled is Best), Chicken w/out skin, Tofu, Pork Tenderloin, Fish of ANY kind and of course IsaLean Shakes and Bars.

HERE IS YOUR DAY PLANNER FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY-
Morning
When you wake up, drink 1–2 glasses of purified water. If you have Ionix Supreme now is the time for 1-2 oz and if you must 1 Cup Green Tea or other Tea is OK.  Coffee is not a great choice – sorry, but it’s only 11 days!

Breakfast
Mix 2 scoops of IsaLean Shake with 8 oz. of purified water. Take 1 Natural Accelerator™ capsule.  OR Prepare a 200-300 calorie meal.  This meal should include protein.

Mid-morning
Have a small snack.  Pick one option from the “Sensible Snack Ideas” chart in your Isagenix System Guide.  This snack should equal 100 calories or less whether or not you are on an Isagenix system.  You can also look back at yesterdays suggestions.

Lunch
Many people following an Isagenix Program eat their meal during lunch to help break up the two shakes. If you prefer, you can eat your meal for dinner. Eat a balanced meal of 400-600 calories (400 if you are having snacks, 600 if you are not).  Protein, veggies and whole grains are great food options. Skip the butter or fatty dressings.  For those not following an Isagenix Program, aim for a 300-400 calorie meal.  Good choices still apply.

Mid-afternoon
If you’re hungry, have a piece of fruit, 1 – 2 IsaDelight Plus, a few stalks of celery or unsalted almonds. Take one Natural Accelerator capsule with your snack or with water. 100 calorie max.

Dinner
If you are doing Isagenix you’ll either have your second shake or your meal for the day. If you are not following Isagenix, you should have about 600 calories left.  See above for good meal choices or check out these recipes -> Low-Cal Entrees CLICK HERE.

REMEMBER:  Everybody needs to Drink 80 oz of Water, Sleep 8 Hours and Exercise for at least 20 Minutes every day of the TURKEY CHALLENGE!  EAT RIGHT, DRINK RIGHT,  SLEEP RIGHT, EXERCISE RIGHT and You Will FEEL RIGHT!

Toady we are also going to Take a BEFOR PICTURE, TAKE MEASUREMENTS, RECORD WEIGHT and BMI.  If you need the tracking sheets, please email Gabby@CleanseMyself.com.

We’re excited that we are ALL on the verge of discovering our body’s true potential for health and youthful vitality.  This is going to be so much fun!

Have a fantastic day and mark your calendar.  The first Reporting Day is Day 3 – TUESDAY and the BIGGEST LOSER WINS!

We are still just getting ready for this contest officially to begin on Sunday, but there are a few things that we can do to ensure that we will be ready for great results!

Today’s task: Today you’re going to build your support system. You’re going to spend time with people you care about and ask them to help you achieve your health and weight loss goals. Ask at least 3 people to be on your support team.

To help you get started:

First, make a list of all of the people who influence your behavior—friends, family and co-workers.

Second, if you haven’t told them about your plans to ‘get healthy’, share your plans with them today. Even though you will have the support of this contest, it’s easier when you have the people who care about you cheering you on too.

Third, when you talk with your support team let them know:

• You are competing in a contest and that this represents your first step toward your a NEW- Healthier You.
• If you are using Isagenix, tell them that Cleansing and Replenishing are the missing links to effective weight loss and improving health.
• While competing in the Turkey Challenge, you’ll also be ridding your life of nutritionally deficient foods and adopting healthier and lasting habits like drinking enough water, getting enough sleep and exercising regularly.
• You want each person’s support to help keep you focused on your goals and honest, so ask them to check in you regularly.

If friends or family members have questions about Isagenix, it might be helpful to show them the products and System Guide when they arrive. As your support team gains understanding of the process, they’ll be better equipped to help you—and, they may even decide to join you.  Remember registration well be open until Saturday November 12th.

Congratulations on your continued preparation! Have a great time with today’s task.

WE ARE GETTING READY TO EMBARK ON A VERY EXCITING JOURNEY TOGETHER!

The Turkey Challenge will help you experience good health, youthful vitality and healthy weight loss. To help reinforce healthier habits, you may wish to write about your journey to better health in a daily journal. This will both encourage you and keep you honest!

If you are currently facing the reality that putting unhealthy foods in your body gives you unhealthy results, today you will start doing something about it!! Today is the start of a NEW YOU for the New Yera!  Today you will begin reducing your intake of sugar, fatty, processed foods and caffeine. Start this process by gradually cutting back on nutritionally deficient foods:

• If you’re going out to lunch with co-workers, skip the cheeseburger and enjoy a grilled chicken salad with only half the dressing you normally use.
• Substitute green tea or water for your second cup of coffee.
• Instead of choosing a sugar cookie as a snack, eat a fresh pear or celery sticks with a tablespoon of peanut butter.
• Choose whole-grain bread instead of white bread.
• Whole-grain pasta is a delicious substitute for standard pasta.

If doing everything at once feels too overwhelming, cut back on one unhealthy food every day until you’ve reached the Official First Day of the Challenge. This gradual substitution will allow your palate and body to better adapt to a healthier diet, which makes it easier for you when it’s time to begin.

Tomorrow’s task will be a fun one!

Make this a day you are proud of!

Stay Healthy,

LVDT

Here’s some information that Isagenix Shared on their Blog resently:

“In a recent study published in The Lancet and reported in HealthDay News, once again confirmed that diet and exercise were successful in reducing risk for those most in jeopardy of developing type 2 diabetes.

The study, which lasted a decade and included more than 3,000 overweight and obese adults, showed that those who lost weight through reducing caloric intake and increasing physical activity cut their risk of getting diabetes by one-third, compared to those with no intervention.

So if you are ready, better health can be achieved through lifestyle choices that includes a diet lower in fat and calories, exercising regularly and Isagenix. These efforts will not only help you achieve your weight loss goals, but also reduce the risk of developing other life treating conditions in the long run.”

Here is what Isagenix can offer:

Isagenix is for every “BODY”.  Isagenix has products that are both safe and effective for every age group.  It is never too late!  You are never too old for Isagenix!

Isagenix Advice:

“If you have Type 2 diabetes there are a few things of which you should be aware if deciding to use the Isagenix Cleansing and Fat Burning System.

Type 2 diabetes

Monitor your glucose levels closely since it’s easy to have low levels while on the program. Isagenix Doctors recommend to their diabetics that they cut their medications in half if they are going to start on the 9-Day Program and if they are using insulin to only use the shorter-acting insulins. Please consult your doctor before adjusting medication.  However, the 9 Day Program is disciplined and the 30 Day may be be better place to start.  Results will not be as dramatic but it will be something you can stick to.

Isagenix Doctors say that a temporary glucose rise would be OK since it’s better than you falling into a hypoglycemic state, which is more dangerous than a hyperglycemic state. What is generally seen is a reduction of both medication and glucose levels with this program. The Shake Days may very well show an increase in the glucose levels but as your weight goes down this generally is self-correcting. If this rise is too great for you then you can switch to just the IsaPro or you can use ½ a shake 4 times a day or reduce the amount to just ½ a shake 2 times a day.

Many Isagenix say that their patients no longer require any type of medication for diabetes, but individual differences doesn’t make this the case for everyone.* At the very least you should see a reduction in your weight and a reduction in the amount of medication that you are using.”

High Blood Pressure

“Being overweight is also a risk factor for high blood pressure because it increases the volume of blood flowing through your vessels, causing an increase in pressure on artery walls. If overweight, losing a few pounds can help to lower high blood pressure and help you feel better.

The Isagenix® Cleansing and Fat Burning System is an excellent program for weight loss. This system includes nutritional cleansing and replacing meals with high-protein shakes. If you are on high-blood pressure medication, however, please be advised that you should check with your doctor before starting the system or any other weight-loss program.  Just because it is always best to have your Dr on board. Also, lowering calories or “deep cleansing” can potentially lower blood pressure too quickly if you are on medication, it is important for your doctor to monitor you and make medication adjustments as appropriate.”

Here is what a day with Isagenix looks like:

Remember, Isagenix can be flexible – Make it fit your schedule.

Isagenix offers something for every”body”.

On a 9 Day you will have enough product to have 2 Pre Cleanse Days (which are the same as Shake Days), 4 Cleanse Days and 5 Shake Days.  You’ll start with the 2 Pre Cleanse Days.  Follow with 2 Cleanse Days.  Than 5 Shake Days.  Finish up with 2 more Cleanse Days.

On a 30 Day Nutritional Cleanse you will start with 2 Pre Cleanse Days(which are the same as shake days), then 1 Cleanse Day.  Follow with 6 Shake Days and repeat the Cleanse Day.  Repeat 6 Shake Days/1 Cleanse.  That’s it.  On a 30 Day Cleanse you will only cleanse one day a week.  The rest are all Shake Days.

On the Total Wellness Plan you’ll cleanse two days a month.  The rest are 1 shake and two meals.

You’ll do great!  You are going to Love how you feel!

All of this info will be in you program guide book that you will receive with you first shipment.  During my first 30 Day Nutritional Cleanse I found it helpful to follow a written plan.  I picked the times because they worked for me.  You can change or rotate anything you like.

More Info From Isageix:

10 Diet and Nutrition Tips for People with Diabetes:

1. If overweight, lose weight. Modest weight loss improves insulin resistance and blood sugar control.
2. Decrease your intake of saturated and trans fat, and intake of sodium. Choose low-fat, low-sodium dairy foods and lean proteins.
3. Decrease your carbohydrate intake, especially simple sugars. Reduced carbohydrate, reduced calorie meal plans can be effective in weight loss and blood sugar management. Monitoring carbohydrates is a key strategy in achieving blood sugar control.
4. Consume balanced meals. Eat a minimum of three times per day and include high-quality protein and carbohydrate at each meal.
5. Try meal replacements. Use of a quality, nutritious meal replacement shake or bars high in protein once or twice daily can help control the amount of protein and carbohydrate in the diet.
6. Practice smart snacking. Snacks that emphasize fiber and protein can help stave off hunger. Avoid “junk foods” high in sugar, fat and sodium.
7. Eat a fiber-rich diet. Strive to consume 25 to 30 grams of dietary fiber daily from fruits, vegetables, legumes, bran, whole oats and other whole grains.
8. Use a low-sugar fiber supplement if needed to increase fiber intake. Start low and slowly add to diet.
9. Consume more mono- and polyunsaturated fats  from fish, olive oil, walnuts, almonds, and flax seed. Increase consumption of fish oil. Studies have shown that long-chain omega-3s from fish are especially beneficial in promoting heart health (hear thealth is an important factor in diabetes).
10. Get enough of the “sunshine vitamin.” Recent studies show that vitamin D is helpful for optimal heart health.
