My AdvoCare Disney Survival Kit

(PSSSSSS.....GIVEAWAY Information is at end of post!)

Our family, our ENTIRE family, is headed to Disney soon.  This morning, I started my packing list. Traveling with 14 people is going to require some planning!  Now, we love Disney.  My side of the family is eat up with Disney and we LOVE nothing more than spending a week there. But eating in Disney can be, well...let's just say it's easy to get off track when faced with supersized Mickey Mouse shaped rice crispy treats each time you turn around! :) 

This morning, I began to put together a list for my AdvoCare Disney Survival kit.

SPARK!!!! - For those early mornings and the afternoon crash.  The packets will fit into my backpack and we will simply mix with water. 

REHYDRATE  Disney anytime in Summer is H.O.T.  Combine that with all the walking, (which is great exercise!!) it is easy to find yourself sweating away electrolytes. We choose Rehydrate in place of other sports drinks.  Once again, we mix in our water bottle, shake and enjoy. 

JOINT PROMOTION -This is part of my daily routine and will help keep my arthritis in check.

PROBIOTIC BOOST- For my girls.  This is part of their daily routine and will help keep their tummy's happy. 

CARB-EASE PLUS- Simply because I know I am going to be bombarded with sweets, breads...you know all the things we love to eat!!! 

MEAL REPLACEMENT SHAKES - For breakfast each morning.  That and a piece of fruit will be more than enough to get me to lunch! 

Guess it's time to get pack to the worst part of vacation!  PACKING.  :) 

On to the giveaway information!!!!! 

Answer the following two questions:

Where are you vacationing this summer? 

Which of the products would you pack in your survival kit? 

Let me know in the comments and we will have drawing for a special AdvoCare prize!

Have a blessed day,

Up for a 24 Day Challenge, but the Pocketbook says "Not Right Now."?

I have Sparked up and I'm practically standing up to type! Because this...

THIS is HUGE.

Here is a little of the "back story".

Saturday evening, Chad was in Knoxville for the Rev3 Triathlon and I was at home thinking. (Always dangerous!) 

Earlier in the day I posted on Facebook that I was going to start the 24 Day Challenge and would love to have some ladies join me!  (Accountability and encouragement make a world of difference for me.) I was overwhelmed at the response. I realized that while people wanted to do this, the cost was the one thing keeping them back. 

I sat in my living room texting Chad about the conversations I had been having and my frustration at not being able to just give it away. :) 

That was when Chad texted me to say, "Let's give some away.  Tell them if they get 2 friends to purchase the challenge we will give them the Cleanse portion.  If they get 4 friends to purchase the challenge bundle....we will give them the entire bundle...for free."  Yep...you read that correctly, Chad said the word FREE. And the best part?

There is no "end" to this offer! 

NOW is a great time to start thinking about a group of friends, family, coworkers that you would like to "challenge".  Check out our site at www.advocarega.com and ask us questions!  

If you are here in the Dacula area OR in the Chattanooga area, Chad and I would love to come start your Challenge with a "kick off" party for you and your Challenge buddies! We'll bring Spark samples and walk through the each portion of the Challenge with you. 

You plus 4 friends making the choice to not just jumpstart weightloss, but improve your health...

Life and Health Changing.
Sound like something you are interested in? 

Let us know if we can answer any questions

Blessings,
stephanie

Gut Health-Probiotic Boost

Our family has tummy issues. Chad, along with two members on his side of the family, live with Crohn's disease. One day, Chad will share the difference AdvoCare products have made in regards to that. It has been major.

Today, however, I want to share about our experience with ProBiotic Boost. One of our children struggles a bit with her tummy. Because of our family history, we probably pay a little more attention to tummy issues, so when AdvoCare introduced the new ProBiotic Boost, we ordered a box specifically for our girls. I wanted to see if adding this to their morning routine would make a difference in their tummy health. 

First of all, Boost comes in powder form. Our girls affectionately call them Healthy Pixie Sticks. Chloe just rips it open and consumes it like a pixie stick! She loves the taste and says it reminds her of candy. Emma is not crazy about straight powder in her mouth.  She prefers to mix it with applesauce. (You can mix the powder with any beverage. I mixed with water and the berry taste was very subtle.)

After a couple of months of taking ProBiotic Boost here is what I can tell you. Emma, who is my fruit/veggie/salad girl, says she feels good. :) This child does not deal with tummy issues.

Chloe on the other hand has seen a HUGE difference in how she feels. In fact, we did not order a box last month and ran out. We were out for several days and she was quick to tell me she needed it!

Some of her comments to me have been:

"My stomach just feels normal."

"I don't feel icky after I eat."

"My tummy does not feel gross when I eat fun food like ice cream."


Because I'm a list kind of girl, here are a few of the benefits of taking ProBiotic Boost:



  • Provides immune system support
  • Supports healthy intestinal function
  • Aids good digestion
  • Helps promote regularity
  • Great for the whole family (ages 4 and up)

    Perhaps you are interested in a ProBiotic, but not in a powder form.  Our RESTORE is an excellent product.  You can find information for RESTORE on this page
