Day 7 Joy’s Ketopia Journey

Day 7 already- how is that possible? It has been a quick week since I began the 10-Day KETOPIA Reset program. I got off to a quick start with some initial weight loss and inch loss which was very motivating. The program itself is ULTRA easy and simply and delicious. THAT IS FOR SURE! What I am noticing is that EVERYONE’S pace of weight loss and inch loss is unique to themselves. There are no two exact results on responses with Ketopia – except that it works– some fast and furious, some slow and steady. I think I am in the second category! For sure, some results are slower than others and you guessed it, typically the men drop weight and fat much quicker than us women. Oh well- like Dave says, “Ladies, you’ll just have to get over it”! Don’t you just hate that?????

The only thing that Dave and I have been doing more of since being on KETOPIA is play an additional 30 minutes or so of tennis around 5 pm in the evening. That breaks up our day, diffuses additional energy that we have since being on Ketopia and also BREAKS the HABIT of an evening glass of wine or cocktail…. or two. What I find fascinating is I have NO cravings for sweets or carbs….and that includes no cravings for alcohol. Truly a beautiful thing as I know the empty calories in wine are what gets stored on my body- especially around the belly!

I won’t lie- my weight is at a standstill of 4 lbs. loss. SOME PEOPLE DROP THAT IN ONE DAY…but I know better than to be discouraged. 4 lbs. of fat is considerable and my body has definitely begun to shift. My muffin top around the waist is now smaller, not those jumbo muffin tops like they bake at Costco’s!

In a couple of days- when I complete Day 10 on my first of 3 Ketopia 10-Day Reset programs, I’ll share my before, Day 3 and Day 10 pictures. I will have to swallow my pride in doing this but I want people to see the real – up close and untouched- changes that can occur with using the Ketopia. YOUR results may be much quicker and dramatic than mine. My body, since going through menopause has been resistant to weight and fat loss. THIS is the first time there has been a shift that is noticeable.

I didn’t get to my size/weight overnight and I know it will take time to return to 15-18% or so body fat that I have been accustomed to over the years. I remember when I began lifting weights and body building in my late 20’s. At first I gained a little weight and then little by little my body shifted in percentage of body fat. THIS TIME AROUND I began at 25.3% with Ketopia and today I am down to 24.38%. (Going in the right direction). Although I really want the number on the scale to drop quicker, the % of body fat is more important to me….which is why I am not obsessing over the scales any longer…..but it’s hard not to want to peek to see if there are any changes. We have a fabulous document for keeping track of your weight loss, inch loss, BMI change, Body Fat % change etc. Make sure to contact me if you want it for your records. Remember both FACTS TELL but STORIES and PICTURES SELL…..so document well and even if you don’t want to – take pictures!

BTW, did I mention you can earn a ton of money helping friends and family look fabulous? Sign up for more details on Ketopia and follow our progress. Send an email to be part of this to info@FGXnow.com

Join us on this journey! You’ll love the KetonX, the Dough bites, the FIXX shake and your results!

Ketopia, You’ll Know When You’re There

That line makes sense now. By late morning on the 3rd day, I started feeling so energized and alive. Hard to completely put my finger on it, but it is palpable. Now I can say it…….You will know when you’re there!

It’s easy, no craving and I feel satisfied all day!

Day 5 I’ve now lost the grand total of 6 lbs. lost, fat down 3.6 lbs and Body Fat off 1% !! Perhaps more important, I feel so much better and smaller….. Clothes are hanging better, belly is not protruding!

On day 3 and 4, I did notice my digestive system was feeling bound up, felt bloated, almost toxic….. Even though I thought I had been consuming enough water, perhaps I hadn’t been. So I upped my water (not just counting the KetonX & FIXX shake as part of it) and consumed 1/2 oz, per lbs of body weight.

Additionally I stopped using unsweetened Almond milk in my FIXX shake and went back to pure water. Additionally even though cheese and cheese sticks are allowed, I dropped cheese too… I think that may have contributed to binding me up. I replaced the cheese snacks with 1/4 avocado, a few black olives wrapped in a large romaine lettuce leaf. Yummy!

Last evening, during our team calls, my digestive system started kicking back in! ( My apologies, if I cut the calls short! lol )

I have been stead fast in my commitment to not having any alcohol. Not easy, especially over the weekend…. I’m not sure how to have a cigar without a good scotch. I guess I still haven’t figured that out. No cigars either!

Our dinners have been fabulous. Even though I’ve not been that hungry, the meals have been delicious and plenty

Imagine how much weight and fat you could lose on this 10 Day Reset program. And you don’t have to stop there! I’ve decided to do 3 programs in a row…. 30 days to lose 25-30 lbs!

Day 6 Joy’s Journey with Ketopia

I’m blown away with the ease of this 10-Day Ketopia Re-Set Program and so is my daughter, Kori.

Kori started her 10-Day Ketopia today and will complete her 10 days on her 33rd Birthday. She is also excited with the EASE and PHENOMENAL TASTE of these 3 products that are part of Ketopia. Like me, she is not new to ForeverGreen and their phenomenal products….we have been enjoying MANY of them since 2006- but like all of us, Ketopia is very new to her. She wasn’t sure how she would like it but trusted me and wanted the results of FAT LOSS and MORE ENERGY/MENTAL CLARITY that Ketopia provides. Who doesn’t want more energy, mental clarity and less “excess” body fat?

She called me this morning after sipping on the KetonX drink and said, “This is delicious- I can get used to this”….and later in the day called after she ate her Dough bite and raved at how filling and tasty it was and how long it took her to much through it…. and even though she has drank Thunder and FIXX shakes over the years- she was equally excited with the taste and energy from JUST THE FIXX! Normally she mixes it with milk, nut butters, frozen fruit…but this time- just cold water and loved it.

Not much “new news” to share today except I am more than 1/2 way through my first 10-Day Reset and I am LOVING the added energy, ease of food preparation and the way I feel. I am purposely not measuring myself or weighing myself until Day 10 (if I can hold off doing so) …. because the TRUE benefit is health and FAT LOSS at the end of the 10-Days. Because HEALTH IS A HABIT and NOT AN EVENT, Dave and I are both going to do 30 Days of Ketopia to reach our weight loss goals, and also assess how we feel after giving it a good length of time!

Ketopia is an easy 10-Day WEIGHT LOSS Program I must say- and I encourage everyone to give it at least 10-Days!!!!

Within the first couple of days you’ll find you will no longer have cravings or lulls in your days- and the inches will begin to melt off your body where you have a tendency to carry and store your body fat.

How much body fat weight do you have to Lose?

If you have 5-10 pounds to lose we recommend a 10-Day Reset Program of Ketopia

If you have 15-20 pounds to lose we recommend two 10-Day Reset Programs of Ketopia

If you have 20-30 or more pounds to lose we recommend three 10-Day Reset Programs of Ketopia…

Once you have successfully completed 30 Days of Ketopia you’ll have a clear sense of how your body is looking, feeling and how you can begin incorporating other healthy products into your diet, from our Farmer’s Market On-Line Store. www.JoysFavorites.com

RESET YOUR BODY- YOUR MIND- YOUR HEALTH & ENJOY THE BENEFITS!

We are looking for other health conscious people to join us on our journey.

You can purchase KETOPIA either retail or wholesale by going to www.fgxnow.com Simply Click on LOCATION, then KETOPIA and then see your options.

Buy/Try Ketopia and share your results- or if you are an entrepreneur and enjoy helping people reach their goals (health & wealth) join us with our FGXpress Business. People are earning a LOT of money helping others and you can too!

Day 5 Joy’s Journey with Ketopia

How is it POSSIBLE today is already day 5 using Ketopia? I am already ½ way through my first 10-Day Reset program of Ketopia….and have committed to do 30 days straight. My goal is to lose 20 lbs. in this time frame and I believe I will.

What will be my results at the end of Day 10? Stay tuned…..I WILL compare my Before Picture (yikes), Day 3 and Day 10 pictures and share my weight loss as well as inch loss. As for today, after 4 full days on Ketopia I have lost 4 pounds! They say most people average 1 lb. or 1.5 lbs. per day weight loss. Many drop considerably more in their first 1-5 days, but stabilize off at this slower and steady pace. (I’d be happy with 1 lb. per day!) and yes ladies…prepare for it- men DO tend to lose weight quicker so I’m trying NOT to get upset that Dave has dropped 5 lbs. in 2 days while I have dropped 4 lbs. in 4 days!

To give you a heads up warning…my comparison pictures I will post at Day 10 are of me in a tight black “skort” (skirt with built in shorts) with a jog bra. (Something to look forward to, lol) The pictures are taken in a sideways view- totally relaxed with nothing being held in. I realize I am SO accustomed to holding in my belly that when I actually saw these pictures in a fully relaxed state I cried. I really did!

When I say this I mean it- this is the easiest and simplest program I have EVER BEEN ON IN MY LIFE….and the results are already promising. I encourage everyone who is interested in losing weight and having more energy and mental acuity to give this a minimum of a 10-Day Reset. Don’t wait to see how your friend will do and base your LIFE and HEALTH on their results- that’s silly….give it 10 Days…..and you’ll know! Then you can ALL compare and celebrate your successes together!

Today I awoke fully rested with SO much energy and clarity. Could it be that “I have arrived” or as Ron Williams says, crossed the bridge? And that YOU’LL KNOW WHEN YOU ARE THERE? We had two team calls that Dave ran and HE was extremely clear on the calls. Truth be told, during both calls I multi-tasked and cleaned our entire 5 LEVEL ski condo (minus vacuuming as it would’ve made too much noise) AND I did a load of laundry. That is not my typical Saturday morning routine but I had energy to burn…..

And then Dave suggested we play tennis. Honestly, because of HIS energy and clarity I took a SolarStrip and put on half PowerStrips below my belly to give me the added edge of energy and blood flow. It didn’t help my tennis game but we did have a great 30 min. play of tennis until the rain poured down. (www.fgxnow.com for info on both the PowerStrips and SolarStrips)

This afternoon our granddaughters ages 3 and 7 arrived late afternoon for dinner and the night and as always we had a great time. Thanks to feeling full and having no cravings it wasn’t difficult smelling their freshly popped popcorn at movie time or when they had their little sundae cup of ice cream. Normally I eat their left overs or finish the snacks they can’t finish. Not tonight! My goal is by the time I have gone through 20 days on Ketopia I won’t even mind putting on my swimsuit and going to the pool with them. I do it now but I wear what most women consider their friend -“a sari cloth wrap around the waist”. Right ladies?

If you are reading this and wondering if you can do this program-the answer is YES YOU CAN!

We are here to coach you along the way. Both Dave and I have been person trainers and have run many weight loss challenges at gyms as well as city-wide here in Burlington, VT. You get our coaching for FREE. We CARE about your results so come get healthy with us!!! Drop your unwanted pounds….share with your friends and make a ton of NEW friends and a LOT of money by helping others. What a great way to contribute to others lives…. This IS A GREAT BUSINESS…..Join us and our amazing team!!!

Day 2 on Ketopia

Slept soundly, other than a couple of bathroom breaks….. I’ve upped my water in the past to 1/2 oz per body weight and remember it took a couple of days for my body to get used to it and stop having to use the bathroom so often. I expect today to match my number of bathroom trips as I did yesterday. Thinking of mounting my iPad on the wall behind the toilet, so I can get caught up on my reading. I believe I could finish a couple of books this week.

DOWN 5 lbs in the first 48 hours!

Look slimmer….. although I didn’t really seem to notice improvement in my tennis game this morning. I’m thinking because I weigh less, I’m maybe a 1/2 step faster and have to compensate for the change in aerodynamics…….. Oh, never mind….

Enjoyed the KetonX drink even more this morning. Just mixed a packet of KetonX with cold water and sipped it for 45 minutes while I fixed a problem with this website….. I touched something I shouldn’t have yesterday in the css files….. But I digress…

The most surprising thing for me has been the lack of cravings. That is awesome. Not to feel like I’m missing something. I believe staying on this Ketopia 10 Day Reset will be easier than anything I’ve ever done in the past.

Heard a comment yesterday about being careful not to drink too much water as you can deplete your sodium and potassium in the body. Here’s what I found… The KetonX drink has 850 mg of Sodium (which is 35% of RDA=Recommended Daily Allowance) and 1120 mg of Potassium (32% of RDA) FIXX has Sodium 190 mg (8% of RDA) and 800 mg of Potassim (22% of RDA) And I add a pinch of salts with dinner….. I don’t see this as an issue. Keep your water intake to 1/2 oz per lb of body weight. I keep refilling a 20 oz water bottle and drink 6 of those daily.

Dough Bites Taste Fabulous Just Sayin’

One of the results I am waiting for is the feeling of energy that others have talked about. It seems to show up between Day 2 and Day 4. I have notice that by just being off grains, my breathing is better and I didn’t feel congested in the early afternoon after my typical lunches.

7 pm – Dinner time, but I’m not hungry… WHAT ?

Crazy. I’m always hungry! Today I had KetonX Drink, 1 Dough Bite, FIXX shake, 2 String Cheese….. We decided we might want to make dinner…. I didn’t see the point. I eat cause I’m hungry, not because of the time of day…..

Decided we should!

Grilled 2 chicken breasts drizzling small chunks of Blue Cheese on them (OMG), along with a grilled Zucchini (halved) with oil, garlic, salt and pepper, added a medium salad with Blue Cheese dressing…. Tasted wonderful, only had 1/2 a breast…. felt satisfied….

Could the Ketopia Reset really be a “Reset” ? Its looking that way guys!

Day 2 – I ended at 242.5 lbs., Lost 2 additional lbs today for a total of 5 lbs in 48 hours.

Not hungry, no cravings, and feel great! I look and more importantly, feel smaller!

Imagine how much weight and fat you could lose on this 10 Day Reset program. And you don’t have to stop there! I’ve decided to do 3 programs in a row…. 30 days to lose 25-30 lbs!

Ketopia, the day has arrived.

Our shipment of additional Ketopia packs is confirmed and in the hands of UPS! Since we only had a single 10 day Reset pack, I graciously offering Joy to start and complete her 10 Day Reset. Once we knew our initial order of Packs was on the way, she suggested that we share her pack till our supply arrives! After seeing her first 2 day’s results, which were fabulous and she had distinct changes in her body that I could see with the naked eye, I’d jumped at the chance to start.

I filled in my Before Measurements and had Joy take pictures. That was the least exciting part of the morning! As a guy, we have an innate ability to look in the mirror and see, however distant, that we’re looking pretty damn good! In these pictures I didn’t hold it in, rather I relaxed and let it out…… I couldn’t see something good even though I squinted!

Sipped my KentonX drink for approx 35 minutes and even though the directions say to wait an hour or so to measure ketones, I couldn’t wait (welcome to my world!) already showing excess ketones in my body! Cool. We played 30 minutes of tennis and I took another ketone measurement to see any changes…. Yep, you can see the darker color which means I’m further into ketosis!

Now I drink water (recommend 1/2 oz. per lb. of body weight) that’s 123.75 oz today for me…. for those of you doing the math in your head…. I weighed in at 247.5 lbs. this morning.

At 11 am I’ll be back with my Dough Bites…….

OK, 10:48 am Couldn’t wait…… just had Dough Bites! It’s a big slab of what tastes exactly like Cookie Dough! It’s been described as being a phantom carb, meaning it tastes great, but doesn’t produce and insulin response from the body! I don’t know how that works, but boy was it good and filling!

It’s 12 noon….. not hungry. So interesting….. For breakfast, I usually have 4 eggs, 2 pieces of toast, bacon or any meat left over from last night’s dinner….. it’s 12 noon and I’ve had a KetonX drink and a Dough Bite….. I’m not hungry at all. No cravings either.

Now it’s 2:40 pm…. just made a FIXX shake. I mixed it with unsweetened Almond Milk…. Less than 1 gm of carbs made the Shake a little thicker in consistency and feels more satisfying! Fabulous shake…. still not hungry.

I’ve drank about 90 oz of water….. me and the bathroom are becoming better friends as the day goes on.

Planning a dinner of pork roast sauteed in onions, topped with pesto, one of my favorite dishes with lightly steamed broccoli, fresh garlic – sauteed and almost burnt, butter, juice from 1/2 a lemon and salt, topped with feta cheese, finished with a fresh salad, avocados, and cheese with olive oil and Braggs….. I hope I remember to take a picture of it…..

Day 1 – I ended at 244.5 lbs., Lost 3 lbs, not hungry, no cravings, and feel great!

Imagine how much weight and fat you could lose on this 10 Day Reset program. And you don’t have to stop there! I’ve decided to do 3 programs in a row…. 30 days to lose 25-30 lbs!

Joy’s Journey with Ketopia- Day 3

Joy’s Journey with Ketopia- Day 3

I lay in bed last night grateful to have found a solution for my sluggish metabolism and for addressing body fat that has crept upon my body in the past 4 years. It’s called KETOPIA. I’ll never forget back in my 40’s….I was very active, lean and always COLD due to low body fat…..sometimes even living in Florida and Arizona! I remember saying how I can’t WAIT till I go through MENOPAUSE- because, my silly reasoning, was that finally I would be warm! Ha-Ha…..not quite!!!! Well I cruised through menopause but not without the meno-pot….I now know why women call them a “muffin top”.

It’s not that I haven’t tried to lose body fat- I have. I have done the Master Cleanse several time (weight comes back!) and the Purium program (ditto) as well as other cleanses and “diets”….and you got it- DIET’s DON’T WORK. If they did, we’d all be our ideal body weight.

The more I am learning about the KETOPIA 10-Day RESET, the more I understand why and how it works. If you have any questions please google KETOGENIC programs and you’ll see thousands of scientific studies on how it helps the body reach an ideal and healthy state of health AND body weight. Ketopia, as a program makes this extremely easy! RESETTING THE BODY TO BURN FAT is the KEY! Much like rebooting your computer to be more efficient!

So….how lucky am I that ForeverGreen (FGXpress)- a company I fell in love with back in 2005 when the FrequenSea was launched-got the exclusive rights to distribute KETOPIA and actually make scientific claims!!!!!

Day 3- This is EASY!

I find it very easy to follow the simple plan that comes within the 10-Day RESET package. I like routine and I don’t like big meals, so this is ideal for my lifestyle. Today I watched my 3 year old granddaughter and usually when I make her lunch I snack on things I normally wouldn’t- or eat her left overs (How many moms or grandmas do that???) Anyway- ZERO cravings for her mac and cheese, handful of blueberry PULSE, fresh strawberries or piece of ice cream sandwich. ZERO. It must have been that DOUGHbite I had a 1/2 hour before!!! Seriously NO HUNGER- or CRAVINGS….even when I cooked a black bean burger (a favorite) for my daughter…..

So….if you are reading this and wondering if this is easy- the answer is YES.

Is it filling and fulfilling? YES

Is it affordable? YES….Dave and I will surely save money this month as we work our way through 3 back to back 10-Day RESET packages.

Day 3- I dropped 1 more pound.

That is 3.5 lbs. in 2 days using the Ketopia. My daughter said “Please don’t take it wrong- but you look less puffy”. I know, losing the fat bloat is sure to make me look slimmer. When I saw pictures of those in the BETA TEST with Ketopia I couldn’t believe the noticeable difference they showed not only in the body but also in their faces. I’m looking forward to that!

I am going “by the book”, exactly as the program suggests and lucky for me- the “legal foods” on the program are my “kinds of foods!” Am I missing wine? Surprise Surprise Surprise….I am not. NO INTEREST IN COFFEE OR ALCOHOL which is very surprising!!! It MUST BE MY BEFORE PICTURES THAT TOTALLY GOT ME IN THE GAME.

Dave and I are not adding any additional exercise to our daily routine…but we continue to play a minimum of an hour of tennis a day. After Dave’s PICTURES taken today, we both agreed that adding daily PUSHUPS, AB EXERCISES and LEG SQUATS would add to our health and results…..at least for the “after pictures”.

Stay tuned. This is fun….Can’t wait to see the GALLERY of Before and After pictures. Ketopia is a savior for many people in helping them reach their ideal and healthy weight and their HEALTH.

Health is a Habit- Not an Event! There are many other products that FGXpress has available to support the Ketopia. You can go to www.JoysFavorites.com and you’ll be directed to the FGX Farmers Market…where you can SHOP….

HERE’S TO EVERYONES SUCCESS WITH KETOPIA. If you have NOT YET ORDERED YOUR SUPPLY, go to www.fgxnow.com click on location, then KETOPIA. We’ll support YOUR journey…..

Joy’s Journey with Ketopia, Day 2

Oh My!!!! I am feeling GREAT!!! Slept well last night except for the multiple times I had to use the bathroom. Typically when my body has begun to drop weight in the past I do have to get up more in the night….but the inconvenience is worth it. Also I increased my water by at least 4x of what I had been consuming on a typical day.

Day 2- what was it like?

Upon waking I used a Ketostix and noticed my urine still had a trace of ketones- which was encouraging. Around 7 am I enjoyed my KetonX drink – sipped it over a 30 minute time frame. 1 hour later my Ketostix showed my body was already in the deeper maroon color

which is between moderate and large. Gotta love the visuals.

I think one of the most exciting things today was I dropped 2.5 pounds and Dave encouraged me to do my measurements. When I got up he noticed that I looked smaller, especially in the places where I have been storing fat. I am quite motivated and I am beginning to feel different. How is that possible after only ONE day???? My body must be happy to be utilizing my readily available FAT for energy.

Energy is HIGH…. Since it is a “program” my KetonX, Doughbites and FIXX were per usual according to the plan. Today I did add, mid-afternoon with my FIXX shake a celery stick with a cheese stick IN THE “LOG” which offered a delightful crunch and satiety. Also an hour later, I had celery with almond butter! Yes it is legal. According to Michelle Lasueur who helped formulate this program, one should strive to have 50 grams of carbs per day….. Some people do better with a little less, and some need a little bit more. When YOU do the Ketopia, will find what works best for you! (THIS is exactly what Michelle emailed me regarding carbs per day: “You want to strive for 50 but may have to go lower. Just see how you do. Some can go higher and some go lower. Everyone is so unique.)

I delighted in transferring marbles into my glass as I lose weight. 1 marble per pound….from a fat squat glass to a tall and skinny one. Though I dropped 2.5 pounds I transferred 2 marbles. I am looking forward to transferring marbles each and every day!

No one can say the word deprivation with regards to KETOPIA. Our dinner is what I usually eat…..Salmon patty, LARGE salad with many greens and steamed broccoli with garlic butter drizzled on the top! The only thing that is not on the menu per usual, is a large glass of wine. BUT….ya know what, I don’t even miss it. Truly- not one bit! (shocker for sure!)

We just got notice that our KETOPIA order is being shipped to us overnight!!!! It certainly has its benefits of being ‘5 Star or higher’ and going to the Ketopia launch. Dave will begin tomorrow morning- which will be fun to do together.

Dave and I are business partners, husband and wife and best friends. It will be fun to do Ketopia together. Four years ago at age 54 we did P90X and rocked our results in 90 Days….and we truly believe that we will reach similar weight loss in just 30 days or less with KETOPIA…. plus reset our bodies at the same time for long term fat-loss! As with any program it is important to stay active so we have been playing tennis each day.

Stay tuned….my promise to everyone is whether I like the results or not, I’ll put together a collage of my BEFORE picture, Day 3 and Day 10 and then again at days 20 and 30!

“Health truly is a HABIT, not an EVENT!” Feeling hopeful that I have finally found my FAT LOSS and Lifestyle solution. This is easy….looking forward to tomorrow…..

Joy’s Journey with Ketopia Begins…..Day 1

Today is Day 1 on KETOPIA. Yesterday was a bitter-sweet day as I took my BEFORE pictures, weighed myself, took measurements and calculated my BMI and % Body Fat. At age 58 I really didn’t expect to look the way I do today. I have always been athletic, muscular and lean- and yet in the last 4 years….due to several factors, (I am sure menopause being the main reason) my body took on a different ‘look’. It certainly did not excite me! I have honestly felt like a foreigner in my own body! It’s no wonder I live in yoga pants….(even though I don’t do yoga (lol) they are comfortable and have a very forgiving stretch to them!)

I could not WAIT to begin my first 10-Day Reset of Ketopia…and there are literally thousands of others out there waiting for their product and equally as excited. Since I would like to drop (forever!) 20 pounds I am planning on doing 3 10-Day Reset with Ketopia back to back. So today is the first step in my Ketopia Journey.

UP early…..and began my day in a very different way. Rather than a cup of hot coffee with my “International Delight cream” I began with a glass of water and them KetonX.

I had never tried the KetonX drink before so was pleasantly surprised with the taste and ease in preparing it. (Just add water!) I drank my KetonX drink at 7:30 am this morning and it truly was delicious, just like everyone said. If you can imagine a creamsicle flavor….you’ll understand. I generally don’t “sip” my drinks but was compliant and I ‘nursed’ the KetonX (in 10-12 ounces of water) over a 45 min. time frame.

Then we played tennis for 30 min. or so. I am not sure if that would hinder going into Ketosis or not…..but it is our morning ritual and staying active is always smart on any nutritional ‘regime’.

At 2 hours after drinking the KetonX drink I was already in moderate Ketosis….exactly where I wanted to be! How do I know that? Well, in the Ketopia 10-Day Reset they include 10 Ketostix they they call PEETOPIASTIX. (We actually bought an additional container of 50 stix). Within 2 HOURS….isn’t that amazing???? I can see with the Ketostix that KETOPIA is already working. (Amotivation -for sure).

Then came the fun….. 3 hours after drinking the KetonX drink I enjoyed my daily Doughbites. It was delicious – has a unique texture, almost like taffy….sweet and filling. VERY satisfying. They describe the taste as ‘cookie dough’ – but the consistency was more like soft, sticky taffy. Very tasty…with little pieces of dark organic chocolate. For people with cravings for sweet things- this will definitely satisfy their sweet tooth!

2 pm and although I am not hungry I prepared my FIXX shake. I have enjoyed FIXX shakes over the years… it is made of dark chocolate and honestly one of the best tasting shakes I have ever tried. Even though I am not a chocolate lover, I love my FIXX! Most shakes are not flavorful or satisfying mixed simply with water, but this honestly is delicious. It actually is an ideal mid-afternoon pick-me-up. Typically in the past I have enjoyed it for breakfast but I am following the KETOPIA program exactly as suggested.

This is a perfect system for me because I really don’t like to ‘SHOP and CHOP’….this is easy- EVERYTHING is in the 10-Day package except my dinner meal. How fabulous is that? Also when you calculate cost, Dave and I will SAVE $ being on the Ketopia program as we won’t be buying breakfast and lunch meals- or consuming coffee (Laites) or cocktails at night!

For my dinner meal…..I enjoyed ‘more or less’ the kind of dinner we always eat. Some protein- in this case I had baked wild salmon, with a little pesto on it- and a large salad…. with avocados, cukes, olive oil/Braggs/lemon juice. Yum. Who can ever say this is a program of deprivation? It is NOT!

Dinner time without a cocktail or glass of wine? You bet! There is NO WAY I am going to jepordize my results by going OUT of Ketosis! In fact, mid day around 3 pm I realized I hadn’t even missed my morning ritual of coffee! WOW! No craving whatsoever! My biggest concerns dedicating myself to the 10-Day Reset was giving up caffeine and alcohol…..most likely two of the culprits that got me fat in the first place. 🙂

To bed at a reasonable hour…..what a fabulous DAY 1 on Ketopia. My energy was high- I had zero cravings and zero hunger. I hope Day 2 is as good or better. Better would mean I dropped some fat weight over night….. til then….

MENOPAUSE FAT GOT YOU DOWN? KETOPIA CAN HELP!!!!

MENOPAUSE FAT GOT YOU DOWN?

KETOPIA CAN HELP!!!!

The majority of my life I was active, lean and had abs that were an envious body part. In my 20s, 30s and even 40s working out in a ‘crop top’ or jog bra was normal and not embarrassing! My mom had told me when I was in my 40s to not get attached to the slim waist line I had enjoyed my whole life, as menopause would surely change all that. I didn’t believe her!

I didn’t believe her! Drum roll here….and then it happened…. Around age 53 the hormonal shift began. What worked in the past no longer worked to keep me slim and trim! I began to accumulate what my girlfriends had always called the ‘muffin top’ and it was horrifying. My clothes got tight around the waist and the dreaded ‘back fat’ showed up. NO!!!! NOT SO!!! Even a solid nutritional plan that had kept me well under 17% body fat most of my life…which included moderate exercise and weight training- was not working!

I named my belly fat my Men-o-Pot! Yes, menopause was full on- with the typical night sweats, restless nights etc. Thankfully a product called PowerStrips (http://davejoy.fgxpress.com/#/fgx/home click on PowerStrips) helped balance my hormones and eliminate my hot flashes and heat discomfort….but it didn’t address my weight gain- or better said, my FAT WEIGHT GAIN!

Truth be told….we as women store fat at different stages of our life:

Puberty Pregnancy Menopause

All make ‘sense’ except for why do we need extra FAT WEIGHT as we get older???? Clearly it didn’t make sense to me and I vowed I’d fight it till the end!!!

Does any of this sound familiar???

In the past sensible food plans like Weight Watchers had worked but I found that I was no longer patient enough losing 1-2 pounds per week…..plus it required me to be thinking of food ALL THE TIME….and that is something I have no interest in. I was open and always looking for an easy & healthy solution. I I also was craving a way to RESET my body and increase my energy level. Discipline was not an issue….finding the right program was.

I always thought if I could find a program that worked QUICKLY, that was HEALTHY, that didn’t require me to “shop and chop” throughout the day with meal preparation and ADDRESSED FAT LOSS more than just weight loss- then I would be one happy lady… I am. Why?

And then….a company, FGXpress, which interestingly enough I have been affiliated with since 2006 announced the launch of KETOPIA. FGX has exclusive rights for this Dr. formulated, patented PROGRAM that puts your body into a healthy and natural KETOSIS within hours, rather than days or even weeks. What this means is you begin to burn BODY FAT FOR FUEL.

Benefits of Ketopia:

FAT LOSS= inch loss….beginning on Day 1

MORE ENERGY- Burning FAT for FUEL offers your body 225% more energy which is good for both physical energy but also MENTAL ACUITY!

Ketopia is NOT a diet…but a program where you actually RESET your body!

If you are like me, and sick of tired of the FAT INCHES and FAT WEIGHT that have accumulated over the years- I invite YOU to join ME on a 10-Day Reset. Personally my goal is to lose 15-20 pounds and have it be a permanent weight loss!

No more diets, no more embarrassing moments at the pool in a swim suit that is too snug and perhaps I may even say good bye to my frumpy yoga style pants that are my daily ‘go to’ pants.
