Healthy Habit - Week 1

This is the first week of eight.

(gradual change for life)

This week we will start the healthy habit of drinking 12, eight oz. glasses of water a day. 

*Also at this time I suggest starting the Herbal Cleanse.

If you are not drinking much water currently, you might find it difficult. I promise it gets easier, but you need to stick with it. Your bladder is a muscle. At first you will be peeing A LOT! Once your bladder's capacity increases you won't go so frequently.

There are a lot of health benefits to drinking adequate amounts of water. You will have more energy, think clearer, skin will clear up, less wrinkles, your metabolism will increase and much much more!

Set aside time in your day ever few hours to have "chugging sessions." I drink 16oz of water 30 minutes before each meal and it works great for me.

Baby steps or BIG steps??

I have found there are 2 types of people in the world. One type is the person who can make big changes all at once. Normally it takes a large amount of commitment and perseverance. The other type is someone who has a harder time changing and needs to do things in baby steps. Neither one is better than the other.

You need to be honest with yourself. "What kind of person am I?"  Either way commit to yourself to be fit and let nothing get in the way.

If you are a person who wants to make big changes FAST the 24 Day Challange is perfect! People are getting BIG results FAST! The average person is losing 10 pounds and 10 Inches in 24 days

Perhaps you respond better to gradual change. If so I recommend the Commit 2 Fit program. On this program you learn and impliment a new healthy habit a week.

Week 1

One of the hardest things for me was getting energy to get active. I had no motivation or momentum. I relied on fast food and convieneience foods. I noticed that once I took Spark I felt energy to make healthier food choices. I was motivated to do the laundry and play with my kids. Then I realized how much of an injustice I was doing to God, my husband, my kids and myself. If you are at the point where you get get yourself started I encorage you to try Spark it has TRULY changed our lives.

After the 24 days...

Congratulations!!! You have finished the first 24 days to the rest of your life.

I get asked all the time about what to do after the 24 Day program. That depends on what your goals are. If you need to lose more, just keep continuing with another 14 Day program. Add in ThermoPlus and take when you take your Catalyst (twice a day on an empty stomach – I take with my “before breakfast” and “before lunch” packs from the strip pack. If you are continuing to lose okay, you can add fruit to your meal replacement shake in the morning. Feel free to use a meal replacement bar for lunch when you are in a pinch and can’t get the proper lunch.


Every 90 days, you can repeat the cleanse.


If you are trying to maintain your loss, but still losing, you can add in some foods to keep you consistent, such as a high fiber carbohydrate at dinner (if you have not already been eating) or adding a snack in the evening. A good snack which includes protein would be a Fruit and Fiber bar, Chocolate Snack Bar, or Muscle Gain. Be sure to continue the supplements and meal replacement shakes.


Be sure you are exercising. Do some form of cardio at least 3-5 times per week, and strength training 2 -3 times per week.


If you want some personalized advice, email us and tell us your goals. Be sure to tell us what you have done, how long you are on the program, and what you are eating. We would be glad to help you tweak your program.
