Transform: Part 1

There are a lot of ways our family is trying to transform these days: wasting less, recycling more, using healthier products in our home, eating more vegetables (kiddos).... but Kyle and I have been on a mission to transform our health and our bodies.

So after going to the SHAKLEE Global Conference in August and hearing some amazing stories, we have committed to transforming with the CINCH inch loss plan. One of the keynote speakers was Jaqui McCoy, who partnered with trainer Chris Powell on ABC's Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition and lost 207 lbs! That was 58% of her total body weight!  Jacqui’s diet and fitness regime were prescribed by her coaches on Extreme Makeover.  Jacqui is also a passionate advocate for Shaklee products and her nutritional needs were supported by her use of Shaklee nutrition, including Shaklee Vitalizer™ and OmegaGuard®.  At the conference, Jaqui shared about how taking these 2 supplements helped her start her weightloss transformation from the inside out - and she has committed to the Cinch transformation pack to lose that last 15-20lbs she wants to get rid of.

And that brings the story back to us - 2 pretty active adults who don't have nearly the challenge ahead of us that Jaqui did, but none-the-less determined to become healthier.  We both have diabetes, high blood pressure, high triglycerides, heart disease and cancer in our family and while we still have time, we want to TRANSFORM from the inside out like Jaqui to prevent these diseases if at all possible.

I thought I'd journal about our transformation journey here on our blog.  So here's where I'm starting:
Cheryl - 154.8 lbs, waist: 35.25 inches, hips: 41 inches

Check back to see our progress!
