Just a Note

To say that I was 351.2 this morning. Down 1.4 pounds.

Most likely due to numerous things, none of which are “the pink drink” Plexus. I was pretty active yesterday – 9,500+ steps, ate rather lightly, and didn’t weigh in until late morning because I slept in, which gave my body more time to dehydrate while asleep.

Skeptical to the end.

My mother advises that I should actively be trying to “eat less” and “low carb.” That is not the Plexus sales pitch, and unless it happens naturally without my putting forth willpower and effort to do those things, I will not do them. At that point, you are dieting. Period. Which you could do without spending $100+ a month on pink lemonade and caffeine pills!

Stresses versus Plexus

Stress wins. So far, anyway.

No amount of supplementation is going to keep me from diving head first into free food (cookies & donuts) at work when the president of the company had a meeting with my boss about my performance this morning.

352.6 lbs. That was the weigh-in this morning. I probably won’t check regularly, but I will report when I do.

Waiting & Drinking Pink

Hugh and I have calmed the house hunt a bit… the reality is we still don’t know what Mara is going to want in the divorce (never mind that the divorce has been in process since early December 2012) and even if she does want to force sale, the smarter option is probably to buy her out.

The wait for Hugh to be officially divorced is frustrating to the point where sometimes I just have to grit my teeth and keep going. The stress of maintaining the pleasantries about the whole situation has led to a 60-pound weight gain over the past two years.

Cue desperation.

I have relatives who’ve joined the Plexus Slim campaign (aka marketing pyramid scheme/swindle) and who are posting and messaging about it to the point of harassment via social media.

So… I bought some. But not from them. Direct from the home office. Because screw that pyramid shit.

Today is my first day taking it. No side effects of note. No benefits of note.

I have noticed that finding anything that seems even remotely like an HONEST review of this thing is damn near impossible… so, I’m going to deviate a little from the original purpose of this blog, shell out $135 a month for a couple of months, and see where this thing takes me.
