An Inspiring Week!

So much has happened since I last wrote! And every night I start to write a post here on my blog and I get too tired to finish! So...here goes...
Well...Tuesday night I went to my first weight loss challenge down at the club and it was so much fun! I figured I better go since I am coaching as well now as a "Personal Health and Wellness Coach" with Herbalife. And I just have to say I am starting to love my Herbalife family here in Washington County! I get so shy in a new environment, but soon, very soon they will get to know the real me :) Beware! Bahahaha!!!
Tuesday we learned about the importance of fiber and having a healthy digestive system...and I was just so excited about what I learned that I came straight home and called my parents and gave them the whole lesson I had just learned and then as soon as I hung up the phone with them I called one of my brothers :)
Wednesday evening I went to institute and let me tell you that the first 45 minutes of the class I was so lost! I understood what he was saying, but I didn't see the importance of the doctrine. But, about halfway thru the class the spirit finally came through for me and helped me understand the importance of this intense study of the Sacrament, the Upper Room and The Passover. I cannot wait to go to church this Sunday with a whole new level of understanding of the Sacrament. I know as I ponder this subject more, the Sacrament will come to have the effect on me weekly that it is intended to have. I can't feel bad for not understanding what I didn't know....I am just so deeply filled with gratitude that the spirit speaks to me so that I can learn more and more as I go thru this life.
Thursday I went to a different kind of Herbalife meeting.  I got to hear from people in the community as they got up and shared their stories of not only of weight loss, but how the products have affected their lives on a daily bases by overcoming depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, panic attacks, fatigue, etc.
And I have not lost a ton of weight yet. But everything I listed above...was me! I have gotten off 5 of my 8 medications that were for chronic pain, migraines, sleep disorders, anxiety, and depression. I still have times where I suffer from anxiety here and there...but to actually sleep through the night is an absolute miracle. My body is ready for bed by 11:30 and has its own alarm clock at 7am! Everyone who knows me knows this is a miracle! I am the one who couldn't get out of bed at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. I truly feel great, and I know I am gonna look great with time!
Anyways...back to the meeting. The stories from people in the community are just so inspiring...and the people in that meeting have so much energy and are so happy...these are the kind of people I want to be around!
I just want to thank my Herbalife Family for coaching me and giving me such great advice! And personally my coach who is always there to support me and encourage me. I just look forward to passing all this along as I go! I am so pumped and motivated! I am ready! Lets do this!
