I’m a big time fan of Isagenix products and have been an Isagenix “consultant” for some time now. Their products are great and when used properly, they can seriously contribute to a healthier lifestyle.
Here’s my story on how Isagenix has helped me with my own health and physique!
The short version of my story: I lost 15.6 pounds and 3.9 percentage points of body fat in 21 weeks using Isagenix products and weekly cleansing.
The long version of my story: January 1, 2019 started with me realizing that I needed to lose some body fat (BF) along with a few pounds. At 58 years old, six feet tall, 211 pounds and 18.6% BF, I was not obese, but knew that I could (and should) look and feel better. So, I started a new exercise plan, basically a combination of many difficult and intense workouts that I had completed in the past. I created a six-month workout plan which consisted of four to six workouts per week. I was also going to “watch” what I eat.
So again, starting at 211 lbs. and 18.6% BF, seven weeks later, I was down to 210.6 lbs. and 18.2% BF. I had lost an impressive 0.04 lbs. and reduced my BF by 0.04%! Seven weeks of exercise and that was all I had to show for my efforts! The results were not very impressive and were extremely disappointing.
It was at this point where I knew that I would need to do something dramatically different if I was going to lose BF at a much quicker rate.
This is where nutritional cleansing with Isagenix came in. I have been using Isagenix products for almost 5 years but had never really utilized a long term cleansing plan until now!
So here’s my new plan. It’s simple and easy to follow.
- Set goals
- Cleanse weekly
- Track calories
- Keep exercising
In February, I set a goal of reaching 193 lbs. with 12% BF, by June 1st, 2019.
I used Isagenix Cleanse for Life for BF loss. Every Wednesday was – and now is – a cleanse day!
I keep track of my calories eaten, I don’t just “watch” what I eat, and I am never starving!
I’m still doing the same exercise plan that I started with in January 2019, which consists mainly of resistance training, with my main goals being hypertrophy and cardiovascular improvement. I do not run for hours on a treadmill!
Here are my results with Isagenix nutritional cleansing:
Jan 01, 2019……….211.0 lbs. and 18.6% BF
Feb 12, 2019……….210.6 lbs. and 18.2% BF
Feb 13, 2019……….209.0 lbs. and 17.9% BF, 1st weekly cleanse
Jul 04, 2019……….195.4 lbs. and 14.7% BF, 21st weekly cleanse
This equals 15.6 pounds lost and 3.9 percentage points of BF lost. However, going from 18.6% BF to 14.7% BF is actually a 20.97% loss of BF. The best news is that this happened within 21 weeks, with very little extra effort and no starvation.
While I didn’t reach my goal in the time frame that I set, I feel that I made great progress. I’m going to continue using Isagenix products in addition to following my weekly cleansing and fitness plan, knowing that I’ll attain my goals within a few more months!
