When I was pregnant with Grace, Jon and I stopped at the closest Wendy's and got a large frosty almost every day. When I was pregnant with Caroline, Starbucks had their amazing signature hot chocolate so I stopped and got a Venti signature hot chocolate every day. I cannot fathom the calories and grams of sugar I was consuming, in addition to all the other sugar I was consuming!
One day I rolled up to Starbucks and they no longer served my signature hot chocolate! How dare they! Well, I just HAD to buy something. The habit had already been created of me stopping by everyday. So I chose the Venti Skinny Vanilla Latte. Not as many calories and not as much sugar, but still a great taste!
I was a Starbucks regular. I got to know the employees and seeing them became a great way to start my day! When I was lucky enough to leave Dell and be a stay at home mom, there of course was some guilt that I wasn't working and I do love giving acts of service, so I would get up early every morning to get me, Jon, and Mom Starbucks. Then I had my aha moment in August when I saw myself on the jet ski, not looking cute and more importantly, not looking healthy, and I knew I needed to make a change.
Jon had been telling me, though he loved his Venti White Mocha every morning it wasn't necessary since he could get coffee at work. Since I had already been getting up early, instead of going to Starbucks, I started walking the dog. Plus, it's blazing hot in Texas and I didn't want to burn his little paws on the hot sidewalk.
When my sister in law introduced me to BeachBody and Shakeology's she also introduced and welcomed me into the Challenge groups which is a supportive community of fellow BeachBody goers. Folks log in their workouts and Shaekology's and provide reviews of their days. I heard about Energizer in this group. I actually misunderstood and bought the Energy Boost instead and that was not nearly as tasty with water as it the Energizer. (The Boost is meant to be added to the Shaekology not drank separately).
WOW!!! The Energizer was a game changer!! Now I start my day off with drinking half of my Energizer before my walk and finish it when I come home. I went from drinking 150 calories and 11 grams of carbs to 15 calories with my Energizer! The drink is light and refreshing and tastes amazing! I would drink Energizer all day if I could!
With my Energizer, I am saving calories and money and have a delicious drink that helps start my day!
