Isagenix 9-Day Cleanse; Day 5

So last night I ended up doing Kettle Bell, and passing out later than I should have. I weighed in this morning at a total loss of 4lbs again.

Today is another shake day, here's the meal plan for the day:

Breakfast: Isalean shake
Snack: Honeycrisp apple
Lunch: Kashi Lemongrass Coconut Chicken
Snack: Probably another apple.
Dinner: Another Isalean shake.

Exercise: My lovie Fred and I are gonna hep-it like the old folks and go mall walking tonight. Hopefully we can get a few miles in and I can get some great new costume jewelery to reward myself? Thankfully the food court was never much of a draw for me.

I'm getting bored, and I'm craving a glass of wine; it IS a Friday night. But I know one glass leads to more glasses, so I'm going to try to make it through to Sunday without, treat myself just a little for superbowl party, and then cleanse on Monday and Tuesday.

I can do this. I'm almost there.

Hopefully I can get to 7 pounds loss as a result of this 9 day program. Ideally, I need to lose 60, but I'll take 7.

Isagenix 9-Day Cleanse; Day 4

Day Four: Shake Day... I got to eat!

Food:
2 Isa Shakes
1 honeycrisp apple
The veggies off the top of a loaded veggie pizza (do you know how hard that is to do???)
French Onion Soup
1/2 of a dressingless grilled chicken caesar salad

Exercise: I haven't done anything yet, but i'll likely do situps and pushups later.

As of this morning, total weight loss was 4 pounds, but I weighed myself again tonight and I'll have to fairly count it as -3.8. Dangit.

Isagenix 9-Day Cleanse; Day 3

It's day three; my second Cleanse Day and... I. AM. HUNNNNGRY.

I decided to eat some mixed greens just now to stop my mental obsession with my empty belly. This is technically considered a "fail", but you try not eating anything solid or substantial for two days and tell me how you feel. Shut up, Petar.

So, here's how it is:

Food:
4, 8-ounce Cleanse Drinks
2 cups of field greens
2 isa snack pellets
1 honeycrisp apple

Exercise: Cleaning 1/3 inch of ice off of my Jeep Wrangler, falling off of Jeep Wrangler into a puddle, getting re-dressed in enough time to not be hideously late to work.

I didn't weigh myself this morning because I didn't have a scale at Petar's house. I'll post weight change tomorrow, hopefully with more loss.

Isagenix 9-Day Cleanse; Day 2

I decided to skip pre-cleanse day number 2 and jump right into the cleanse.

Food:
2 apples
4, 8-ounce cleanse drinks
2 isa snacks
1 cup of frozen fruit
1 cup frozen green beans cooked in organic chicken broth.
Water, water, water

Weight:
This morning I weighed in down 2.8 pounds from starting weight.

Isagenix 9-Day Cleanse; Day 1

Pre-cleanse day one of two.

Weighed in first thing this morning. Let's call it tare-weight 0. In future posts I'll list a +/- change.

Breakfast: Isa Shake
Lunch: Kashi Lemongrass Coconut Chicken
Snacks: 2 Honeycrisp apples
Dinner: Isa Shake

Exercise: Walking to and from my mechanic during the day, low impact kettle bell when I get home.

Wish me luck!

I almost urinated the couch

We Totally Found A Dead Person

So, many of you may have read on Facebook about how we FOUND A DEAD PERSON IN THE DESERT.

Let me give you a little back story:

This past weekend was my 29th birthday. Fred and I booked a trip to Las Vegas, with a list of things to do. One of which was to just go SEE the desert, and look around. I'd never seen a tumbleweed. I had no idea what United States of America desert included. Honestly, I'll admit: I expected camels. You heard me.

Much to my delight, Sarah & Gina (Super 2006 Elvis Road Trip Bestie, and her rockin' coworker, respectively) decided to join us in Vegas (From SLC, Utah) for the majority of out time there, and CONVENIENTLY were able to bring a metal detector from their place of employment for use in Nevada desert exploration.

So, two days before the end of our vacay, we decide to take a drive out at dusk and find a place to pull off the side of the road and wander just far enough in that it feels rugged, yet still be able to see the car - as I am a nervous nelly, and I have seen freaking Casino. I know there are mobsters in the dunes, I just know it. With the camels of course.

So, I'll tell the rest of the story with photos. Please enjoy.

Oh wait, before I start... Sarah & Gina brought a real live (dead) TUMBLEWEED as a b-day present. Check THIS out:

Alright, now we can go on...

First few shots of the "desert", looking for the perfect spot:

This is getting closer to what I was hoping for:

PERFECT! This place is delightfully desolate, has a pull off area, and even has lots of vantage points to find our way back to the car!:

I even made it over the minor dune in flip flops in an ACE Bandage. How could this go wrong?

Sarah tested out the metal detector before we set off on our trek. It worked:

Then I found some broken beer bottles.

And some creepy bones. Whatever could kill something with vertebrae this large could certainly take out a short, disabled east coast girl with an anxiety disorder. I'll admit at this point the sun was going down and I was starting to get a little spooked.

But THEN I heard that crackly beepy noise that you only hear on PBS treasure hunter specials. I turn to find Sarah swiftly on the scent:

Being the man, Fred offers to do the manual labor (and I'm sure lay claim to whatever goldmine we later uncover?):

Then I saw a trashbag begin to emerge:

And THEN I see what looks like a head?

Fred bashed with the shovel a bit more, as I screamed as HUMAN HAIR emerged:

From here, only a video can narrate. Please take special note of my nervous eye, and me falling as I try to run away (Scroll down after watching to see the aftermath):

Sorry for all the cussin'.

I am no longer an elvis fan, because this is what was inside:

And here you will see that I am still beyond terrified. But Sarah and Gina get credit for being the biggest assholes and best pranksters of all time. I am so happy to be alive.

And this is how we left him. If you want to go try it out for yourself, look for Snookified Elvis, he still has batteries:
