Day 7: Nikole’s Shakedown Journal
by: ffadmin

Hey there, fellow —and future— fat flushers! My name is Nikole and I’m going to be taking you along on my fat flushing adventure! I hope that my journals help you to become as passionate as I am about this life changing plan. And for those wondering, it doesn’t just help you lose weight. Yes, that’s an amazing benefit! But your overall health is the important thing here! There is a Fat Flush Plan for everyone! Let me start by introducing myself.

I’m married to the love of my life, have 3 pretty princesses who keep me on my tippy-toes and 2 spoiled pups. I’m a daughter, sister, and friend. I volunteer at my daughters’ school and work as a hair stylist. I love making women feel beautiful! I love the outdoors, working hard and I hope to inspire others with my story. What you see is what you get! I’m an everyday person, running kids around, trying to keep a clean house and juggling a million things at once! So far on my journey, I have lost over 50 lbs and I am the healthiest I have ever been with the Fat Flush way of life. So yes, YOU CAN do it too! Being busy is an excuse I used for many years. As Thomas Jefferson said, “Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today.” Take that first step to becoming the new and improved you, and feel the best you have ever felt!

The most common questions I get are, “How did you do it?”, “What do you eat?”,  “How do you do it being a wife and a mom?” and “What do you do when you go out of town or out to eat?” These are questions that I am going to be answering as I take you through my day to day life! So, let’s go! (And remember, anything I’ve underlined is a link; click it for more info!)

Day 7 ♥ Shakedown Journal
I’m through my 1st week of the Shakedown and I’m feeling fantastic!!! I’ve lost a total of 6 lbs so far and still have another week to go! I’m so excited to see what this next week will bring!Today I woke up bright and early. I’m a big fan of how easy it is to get up! I remember before I started fat flushing, what a struggle the mornings were. It took literally everything I had to get up, get the kids ready, take them to school and I couldn’t get home fast enough to get back to sleep. Thank God I am not that person anymore. I was missing out on so much! Now I have the energy to get through my day and then some! It is really the best feeling ever and luckily I had all that energy today!I’m sure lots of you watch the ‘Biggest Loser’; my husband and I are fans of the show. Every week they have a theme and this weeks theme was: “I don’t have any self control.” This one is close to my heart because all through my journey people have told me, “you can stop for this one meal” or “just start back up after the holidays” or “come on…just try a bite”. But for me, that one little bite and the “I’ll wait til after that holidays” mentality what got me to where I was! I love my body now and it’s the only one I have so I want to take care of it! To me, putting something in my body that isn’t good for it is like dumping a trashcan in the middle of your living room!You are bigger then your cravings! So when one of those pesky cravings hits, drink a glass of cran-water and grab a healthy snack. Then go do something to take your mind of it!  I guarantee that craving will go away and then…YOU WIN!In order to be successful, we have to first change the way we think.
