11 DAYS, 4 POUNDS, & 1 INCH LATER...

Yep, you read it right!  In the last 11 days I've lost 4 pounds and an inch off my waist!  I'm so happy!!!  So what have I been doing?  

1.  I started by taking one capsule of Young Living Lemon Oil internally every morning, my goal was to do that for a week, then start the Slique program.  Well, I didn't realize I was low on Lemon Oil, so that didn't really work out as planned.  I did lose 2 pounds the first 3 days I took the Lemon Oil, though!

2.  On April 10th I started using Young Living's Slique Kit.  It is simply a series of shakes, teas, supplements, gum, and of course...oils.  

     The program guidelines are as follows:

     Breakfast:  Balance Complete meal replacement shake with 2 drops of 

          Slique Essence

     Snack: Slique Tea with 2 drops of Slique Essence and a healthy snack

     Lunch: Slique Slim Caps 1 hour before lunch then a light well-balanced meal

     Snack: Slique Tea with 2 drops of Slique Essence and a healthy snack

     Dinner: Slique Slim Caps 1 hour before lunch then a light well-balanced meal

     Evening: 2 drops of Slique Essence in water or low-calorie beverage

     Daily: Chew 1 Slique Gum tablet before or after meals as desired to help control 

          cravings and reduce mindless snacking

I am not usually hungry between breakfast and lunch so have my second tea after dinner.  Sometimes, just to mix it up, I'll blend my shake and add a banana, some peanut butter, or both...YUMMY!

3.  On April 15th I started walking.  I am wearing a step counter all day and it is really helping me to be conscious about not sitting too much.  It feels so good to get out and walk, too!  The weather is starting to get nice here in Alaska!

4.  I also received more Young Living Lemon Oil on Sunday so on Monday I started taking one full capsule of Lemon Oil every morning again, too.

So...that's it!  I've never been a big dieter, but this I can do!!!
