Mommy's Obsessions BLOGSPOT: Celebrate You with Isagenix

The Thrifty Nifty Mommy Blogger Network is Celebrating You today by bringing you an amazing sponsor dedicated to making you feel and look your best!

About the company: Isagenix is an organic "food system" that works to naturally cleanse and replenish the needs of your body. This is not a diet, weight-loss program, fast or detox ..it is however a lifestyle change, a nutritional cleanse and body composition system that works to build muscle while burning fat and replenish with whole-food nutrition. Isagenix is the FIRST & ONLY total body system that benefits every single cell and organ in your body. It provides more energy, better sleep, leaner muscle, a faster recovery, stronger performance, and less body fat!

I'm not a dieter. Never have been. I just think there are better alternatives (especially mentally) than forcing yourself to try to loose weight. Baby Skibbles is 4 1/2 months now and I hadn't really done anything to loose the weight, but realized I was at a stand still and in order to loose my remaining weight I needed a change. I had recently started baby sitting a few days a week, so I needed something that was quick and didn't take up a lot of my time (I'm a busy mom you know). The mom I was babysitting for introduced me to Isagenix. She herself had lost a significant about of weight and I was intrigued that it was a very natural product line.

Now, I had done meal replacements before, but this time I wanted something different. I have really been trying to watch what I consume since everything I put in me, the baby gets as well. Not only that, but many products on the market aren't even recommended for nursing moms, so I was already limited. I learned that Isagenix has numerous products safe* for nursing moms and because of that, I knew I had to give it a try.

(IsaLean Bars, IsaLean Shakes, IsaLean Pro, IsaPro, IsaCrunch, and Fiber Pro are the 6 products Isagenix offers that are considered safe* for nursing moms).

I received a variety of items put together by the sponsor in order to be able to test a few different products out. I received chocolate and vanilla IsaLean Pro shakes, 3 meal replacement bars, 3 types of snacks, chocolates, energy shots, cleanse drink, IsaFruits and IsaGreens and an electrolyte mix.

The first morning I had a chocolate shake. It's much creamier than what I was used to in the past but I loved it. It was almost like a milkshake. I was so happy with the taste, thickness, and overall quality of the shake. I noticed that I got hungry about 2 hrs later so the next morning I put a tablespoon of peanut butter with the shake and it was awesome for curbing my hunger. Adding fruits would also be great as well! The last day I tried the vanilla flavor and it literally had an almost ice creamy quality which was awesome. I usually despise vanilla shakes; however, this one was just amazing.

3 of the mornings I had a meal replacement bar. The 3 flavors were: Chocolate peanut butter, Chocolate crisp, and oatmeal raisin. The chocolate peanut butter was my favorite, but the oatmeal raisin was so nice for breakfast. I was surprised at how tasty they were. Other meal replacement bars that I've had in the past leave a chalky taste in my mouth or are just plain gross, but these actually taste like real food & are delicious. They kept me full. I actually prefer the bars over the shakes because I literally can just open it and go and as a busy mom I need something that's fast and nutritional.

All of the different snacks and drink mixes were amazing as well. I love know that I am getting proper nutrition without adding a ton of chemicals into my body. The IsaFruits and IsaGreens provide the daily amount of fruits or vegetables in a single packet.

So let's get to what you really are dying to know! Did Isagenix work for me? Yes! In 7 days, I lost 2 pounds and even better, I lost 2 inches! I only replaced one meal a day and while I tried my best to eat healthy for the rest of my meals and snacks, I did have a few "oops". I definitely think that I could have lost more had I replaced two meals a day and not had those "oops" moments. I absolutely love everything about these products.
