I've always been able to do anything I've put my mind to. I just normally don't feel like putting gin the effort into things. With Half Marathon training behind me I am thinking it is time for my next challenge. I have ordered the full 24 day challenge from Advocare. I've done the cleanse in the past (days 1-10) but never the whole 24 day challenge. I am curious to see what my results will be after completing the full 24 days. My desire to cling to the option to cheat always brings me back to weight watchers. I love weight watchers because I believe they teach you how to eat in real life. HOWEVER, with WW I binge one to two days a week. Every start of each new week I eat all my weekly points in 3 days tops. That also doesn't include the activity points from all my long runs I was eating as well. I was getting what seemed to be a ridiculous amount of activity points, it was basically like they were giving me all the calories I'd burned back to me in points.That kind of defeats the purpose of working out.
The 24 day challenge has calls for no refined sugars & no white starches. Lean proteins, fruits, veggies and whole grains. So basically the WW simply filling plan but with Vitamin packs for days 11-24. The hardest thing for me will be to just cut out all the junk. with the normal WW plan I still had access to the junk as long as I counted the points. I am thinking that at least for the 24 day challenge I will cut it all out. That should help me break some of these bad habits and then I can go back to the normal WW plan and be using my weekly points smarter. I know I can do this but it is going to take some work and yeah it is going to suck for about the first 4-5 days. I seem to remember the 5 day is when I started getting easier last time I did the cleanse. I keep on returning to Advocare products because they are truly amazing.

BEWARE..... The 24 day challenge calls for measurements so the next post may include new before pics as well.
