Just Jess traineo Fanatic Posts: 93 Just Jess This member has no personal statement yet!	# Posted: 8 Nov 2007 01:17 My grandmother had a stroke in September so I missed working out for about 3 days since I drove 2 hours to see her in the hospital (she was in a coma) and she died the day after the last day I visited her-I was so sad and upset that I let my workout routine drop off, then 3 weeks after she passed my grandfather also passed. My 3 days of not working out turned into almost 2 months and I have just recently started getting back into the gym. I wish I would have just got back into it right away because the longer you wait, the harder it is to get back into things (including your clothes..lol). So, don't think that if you miss a day or two that it's the end of the world, get up and get back into the swing of things-we only have one body for our one lifetime, we gotta take care of it Hope you all have a wonderful day!
Elicia :) traineo Fanatic Posts: 117 Elicia :) I'm so proud of my abs....so I had to post them! Been weight training pretty seriously for the past 4 mos and I'm finally noticing some definition. Still have a way to go to get the much desired six pack, but off to a good start!	# Posted: 8 Nov 2007 02:24 Great thoughts! I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother.....all the more reason to take care of yourself, right? Congrats to you for getting yourself back to the gym and good luck.

Lisa Parziale traineo Regular Posts: 45 Lisa Parziale I began my health and wellness goals after being told by my doctor I was pre-diabetic and borderline high blood pressure. After a scuba diving trip that did not go well (due to my poor health), I decided to try and she the extra pounds. It was important to me to find a helathy, well-balanced program that would not only give me a jump start, but also allow me to learn how to make a lifestyle change to better health and wellness. About 30 days ago, I found out about Isagenix through a co-worker. In the past 30 days, I have released 20 pounds and lost 4 inches in my waist, going from a size 12 to a size 6!! My goal is for another 10 pounds, which I would like to shed by December 31st. Along with 4 other coworkers, we have had great success in losing our weight. Getting through the holidays and working toward our goals is ahead. Once we do that, we then plan on implementing what we have learned to maintain our new found health and wellness. Isagenix has been a life changer for myself, my coworkers and my partner.	# Posted: 8 Nov 2007 20:25 Sorry about losing your grandparents. Sounds like you jsut needed to deal with it and did. Give yourself kudos for getting back on track. It may have taken a bit longer, but you DID get back on track and that is important. Thanks for the inspiration!!
