You too can lose weight on only 500 calories a day -- don't be fooled by the claims!

For a few months now I have been quietly observing all the excitement over the HCG diet.   Its claim is that you can lose a pound a day seems very inviting to others.  We are a society of instant gratification and I know how hard it is sometimes to release pounds and inches while just eating healthy and exercising.

So along comes a claim that HCG can help you lose 1 pound a day!  Now that’s something to get excited about, right?

I rarely take a strong stance against diets, nutritional programs out there but I just have to say that with this one, it seems that “common sense” has flown out the window.

At first, I was intrigued to find out about it because losing a pound a day seems like it must be really effective, but then as I researched it more, it was like — DUH!  You have to reduce your calorie intake to 500 calories per day. 

There are many other restricitions to the diet that would cause you to lose pounds and inches. 

“What little food can be consumed is supposed to be high in protein and low in starches, carbohydrates and high-fat foods. Alcohol is forbidden, and updated versions of the diet sometimes include additional appetite suppressants, such as daily injections of phentermine or other stimulants.”

I can tell you that anyone that reduces their calorie intake this low and reduces their intake of carbs, high fats, starches and alcohol will lose weight.  But how safe is that…not to mention the “rebound” effect after you resume eating normally.  From my opinion, you have just put your body into massive “starvation mode.”   And hence, this will start all the “yo-yo” dieting urges in the body.

Now I am not a medical professional but I do have common sense and have coached 100s of others through Nutritional Cleansing for the past 8 years so I do know a lot about what works and what does not.

Also, who knows the long-term effects of pumping a pregnant women’s hormone into your body?  There are just too many unanswered questions regarding this and the results may not even be attributed to the actual injection…. like I said, most people would see drastic results with that type of regimin without HCG–but a what cost.

Do your own research.  Read about how people feel on it, the hair loss, the hunger pains, the lack of sleep, etc….

Here’s another article to get you started but go google it and I challenge you to really do your homework before you start this program.

http://www.dietsinreview.com/diet_column/07/hcg-diet-look-elsewhere-for-weight-loss/

If you want to try something that is safe, organic, gets results, do-able and cost effective and will set your body up for long term success and not just immediate results and then rebound, let me know!  We have created rapid weight loss results in a clinical study but it’s with super high grade nutrition and cleansing–part of an overall total health program.

P.S.  Perfect timing!  I just got this in my email box this morning from one of my client’s Brooke, titled, “Can this be right?”

Kimber, I just weighed and measured. My husband measured me on the first day of pre-cleanse and then again today. Since Thursday morning: 9 lbs lost; 20.25 inches (with 3″ off my waist) I wouldn…’t believe it if it weren’t my body – ha!

This morning, I woke up to this message in my Facebook inbox:

Hi Kimber,
I am SO excited to tell you that I am 10 pounds lighter & 13 inches smaller!!! Thank you, thank you for this great gift! I have been wanting (& needing) to lose weight for so long, but always have a hard time getting started. This was just the jump start I needed & I intend to keep on going! ~Jandi

Jandi is one of my connections on Facebook that I had the opportunity to start her on my company’s 9 Day Nutritional Cleansing Pak.

This is the 2nd time this week, that I got that little nudge that I was part of  impacting others lives in a big way!

On Tuesday evening I heard a story from another of our client’s that seriously moved me to tears and about 60 others in one of my presentations.

You see, I got to meet Michelle that night.  I went to a dinner a little earlier that night and I had no idea who she was or what her story was.  The group was a little to large to visit, so we just shook hands and made a little small talk.

About an hour later, she was asked by one of my business partner’s to share her story and I about fell off my chair.

You see, Michelle is a mom of two and had been on life support THREE times and had been given only 1-5 years to live.

She has a condition where the body’s immune system becomes confused and attacks itself.  She was on 32 different dr written suggestions, and had seen 30 dr’s.

She spent so much time in the hospital that her kids thought that’s where she lived as they spent most of their time living with their grandparents.

After she started her nutritional cleansing system, she was able to finally sleep through the night, her hair quit falling off, and her lab results tripled!! She has also lost 40 lbs. and she is STILL FULLY ALIVE TODAY!

Now, I can’t say that Nutritional Cleansing cured anything but I do know that when you feed the body properly and rid the toxins, it is the Miracle and can do what God intended it to do!

Michelle was able to do this without harsh stimulants or unknown ingredients or programs.  This is tested and all natural and has produced results for 8 years—1000’s of stories!

Now, stories like Michelle’s and emails like Jandi’s is why I do what I do!

If you aren’t doing something you are passionate about, why?

And if you want to do join me, I’m seriously looking for a few others to help coach, train and mentor so you can also wake up ready to hit the floor running with passion and excitement every day too!

Here’s just some pictures that are amazing!

Because of high demand and people literally begging us, recently one of my business partner’s and myself launched, “Like Us Media.”

We have been asked by several successful companies and team leaders to help them create success with Social Media.  So we already have clients and now are trying to get the system in place to meet the demand.

So please check back for more information on packages and more information:

www.LikeUsMedia.com

Find us on Facebook:  www.facebook.com/likeus

We are super excited to help others really create success in this market!

You can watch this short video to see just a small sample of what’s already in the works!

Get your FREE report on “4 Ways to Generate Income through Social Networking!” just for subscribing to our updates:

This seems like a very simple topic, but I have been surprised as I have been helping others with their Social Media how many don’t know they can do this or even why they should!

For example, maybe you want to update your status with something that you don’t want EVERYONE who is your friend on Facebook to read.

This might be when you want to just announce something to your clients or team about your product or business and don’t want to be constantly bombarding your friends and family with what you are doing.

For example, here’s some lists I have created:

• Family
• School Friends
• Local Friends
• Church Friends
• Business Team
• Networking Friends
• Mentoring Friends (Friends who I learn lots from their post)

and many more!  You can create any kind of list.

Now, say I want to make a status update about a Team Dinner that we are having but I don’t necessarily want to have every friend on Facebook read it. Then I can create the status update and then exclude some of these lists.

Let me walk you though the process.

How to Create New List

1. Click on “Account” in upper right hand side of your FB page.  Now select “Edit Friends” from the drop down menu.
2. Now select “Create New List” at the top of the screen
3. Enter a name for your list
4. Select which FB friends you want in this list and click the blue “create list” button

Now if you have a ton of FB friends already, it might take you a while to sort through all of them, but do a little bit everyday and you will realize down the road, what a great tool this is.

How to Update Status and Exclude a List

1. Type in a Status Update on your Profile Page
2. Click on the little black “Lock” icon in the bottom right of your status bar.
3. Select “Custom” from the drop down menu
4. Now start typing the name of the list you want to exclude in the “Hide this from these people” box.

You can also do the opposite with a certain post and share the post with “Everyone” or “Friends of Friends” so more people could see a post!

This is a really handy tool if used with the right intentions and without wanting to bombard or spam others!

Here’s another great tip!  When you click on your “Home” page, now your lists are on the left hand side of your page and if you click on a List, you can just see that lists’ status updates! It sorts them for you.  So if I want to just see what’s going on with my family, now I can read all their status updates fast!

Try it out today and let me know how you like it and also what types of creative “lists” you have made.  Just drop me a note below!

So, everyday I use healthy products that help to rebuild and restore my body, hopefully so I can stay YOUNG forever!

Now that I am in my 40’s, nutrition, skincare, exercise is increasingly become important to me.

Dang!  I’m no longer a girl that can just eat, drink and be merry without the consequences.

About 8 years ago, I was introduced to a line of “nutritional cleansing” products that I frankly thought was a scam.  This was the era of the whole “fen fen” scare and rapid weight loss gimmiks and even risky weight loss diets.

So I had heard some crazy stories of quick weight loss as a side benefit of removing toxins from the body, but I thought it had to be all water weight,  a quick fix, etc….and I was highly skeptical.

But I won’t lie, I had been trying to get rid of those last 5-10 “sticky” pounds for a long time after my 3rd son was born. With my two first sons, I easily bounced back to my pre-pregnancy weight.  But after my last one, I just found it a little bit harder.

Now many thought I was crazy because “in clothes” I looked as good as I had ever looked.  But ladies, you know how you feel under those clothes sometimes and the thought of actually putting on a bikini is alarming—that’s where I was…no hiding anything in a bikini!

So I decided to try the Cleansing System, not expecting AT ALL what would happen.

In my first 9 days, I released 10 lbs., 11 inches and 2% Body Fat. Now I had been doing the “Body for Life” program and going to spin or the gym 3 to 4 times per week with NO BUDGE before that.

So it was totally the JUMP START I needed not only physically, but mentally and emotionally too.

You see for the first time in my life, I do believe I started to battle depression. After 9/11, I started feeling so hopeless and scared and it really affected me to a deeper level that I can’t even explain to you.  It was almost as if I lived near Ground Zero or had someone personally affected. I didn’t but I felt like I couldn’t do anything and went into really an irrational fear about my kid’s future and I just couldn’t understand how other people could just move on and start laughing again and going on with their lives when over 3000 were just wiped out in an instant.

So for the first time in my life, I began eating not so healthy things and drinking SODA (which I had really never done in the past).

I think that although I was trying to counteract it all with going to the gym, my bad eating habits and slight depression was winning–my mind was just not at all in a good place.  I wanted to make a difference somehow but I didn’t know how and I felt worthless and hopeless.

So after I was introduced to this system and got those results I mentioned above, along with feeling 18 again energy wise, some small health challenges were gone, I felt alive and excited-–I knew that God had brought me a vehicle that I could get involved in to help others who felt like me–hopeless and discouraged and just basically getting by and living a life of mediocrity.

Over the past 8 years, I have been able to help coach 100s of others to reach their ideal health, weight and even life goals!

What a blessing was in that little brown box I found on my doorstep 8 years ago!  Who knew that little box could hold such treasures!

Anyway, the idea of “cleansing” has now gained attention by the media, health professionals, athletes and celebrities after we introduced this system to others.

But this is not like the “cleanses” out there (if you want to know why or how….too much to post, you’ll have to get hold of me).

But the idea of cleansing your body is similar to the reason you go and have your oil changed in your car or you change the filters in your vacuum or heating system.

Toxins and “stuff” clogs the pipes and you need to cleanse it out every now and then.

What would happen if you didn’t get an oil change?  What would happen if you never brushed your teeth?  What would happen if you never changed the bag in your vacuum?

Catch the drift!

Now here’s the confession, I haven’t had my full “oil change” since early October. I have been so busy coaching others, doing life, cranking up my business…that I kind of put myself on the “back burner” again.

I do take these healthy products everyday for maintenance but it’s time for a full overhaul again.

So I’m on Day 1 of my 9 day system and I want to be transparent in all this.

So I’m going to update this Post during my 9 days, so if you want to follow me, just check back here.  I’m going to be as honest as I can during the journey, since it’s been a while.

It’s good for the coach to get back to the basics sometimes too so they can relate to the rest of the players!

And I may even need some encouragement along the way too, so I would love some replies below!  I thank you in advance for that.

If anyone wants to join me in the next 9 days, please let me know or if you want to get started in the near future, I’d love to help you!

DAY 1

9am – I started my day with a yummy “healthy dark chocolate” (that makes me feel like I’m cheating).  I just had my first cleanse drink (4 oz) with 8 oz. of water.  I also had a “scooby snack” (that’s what I call them).  I’m feeling way excited as I know that in the morning, I am going to have that lean and clean feeling all over again!

I weighed myself and yes…I have some “sticky” pounds to release again!  Dang!  Summer and life’s busy adventures have taken its toll on me too!  I can’t wait to feel a little more “bikini ready” as the summer is almost gone!

12Noon – I just had my 2nd cleanse drink and also a bite of Healthy chocolate.  Time is going by fast today and so far so good… my hubby called and wanted to do dinner and a movie tonight though, so movie YES–but no buttered popcorn — dang!  LOL

CHECK BACK HERE LATER FOR MORE UPDATES

This past Wednesday, I had the opportunity to interview Donna Valdes for the second time on a weekly Internet Radio Show I co-host, The Real Wahms (for Work at Home Moms).

You can find out more about this popular show at www.TheRealWahms.com and also get your FREE report, “10 Ways to Keep Balance with your Kids and Your Home Business.”

An interesting topic came up of why women feel so much guilt when they don’t get “it all done” and men don’t.

It’s kind of crazy to think that 80-90% of the organizations in the home business industry are made up of women, yet most of the top income earners are men! Why is that?  Is it that they are better than us?  Do they have better skills?  Are they better at overcoming challenges and excuses?

In some ways, I think that they do have a leg up on us WAHMs because they are not hard on themselves like so many of us are.

I remember several years back at the beginning of my journey in this industry, I became friends with a couple others associates (who were not financially linked to me) but we all were at the same level in our income and rank in our company.  There were 3 of us and we all agreed at a company event that we were just going to GO FOR IT and take our businesses to the next level.

So my personality is the type that will commit myself to things without even thinking what it might entail or the skill-set required.  YES…my EGO gets in the way for me many times as I always think I CAN DO ANYTHING!

Well, at the time, my 3 boys were a lot younger, 7, 5 and 3 and my husband was working part of the week out of town and it was also SUMMER.  So not even looking at what it was going to take to increase my income, I just threw my hand into the circle and give them a big high-5 and said, “let’s do it!”

After I returned home, reality set in.  I just honestly didn’t have the time, nor even the skill-set required to reach that next income level.  And I really had no desire to sacrifice the time away from kids at that point–time with them has always been so precious and fast-moving.

So all the sudden I find that I’m making up excuses for myself and to others and starting to feel so defeated. The self talk in my head started to rear its ugly head with things like, “you’re not good enough,”  “you’re not worthy,” “you aren’t a polished speaker” and on and on.

It was compounded a few months later when we came together at a local event and I was standing along the side of the audience (with many of my team members in the room) and one of the persons that took the challenge with me, (from the front of the room) basically called me out and said “what rank are you at now, Kimber?” (which we all knew I hadn’t advanced at all while he had grown and advanced quickly)!

I remember leaving just devastated and to make matters worse the other mom who joined us in the challenge had also reached all kinds of new levels in her income and rank.

So poor me. WAH!!!!

(Now I have to say that at no time did I not feel happy for them…I’ve always been one that has celebrated others success and not feel jealousy for others)…but at the same time, I was not happy for me, self doubt continued to plague me and the shame of not making it with them set in hard!

It wasn’t until a while later that I was smacked at the side of the head when I realized (with some intense coaching) that I sabotaged myself by comparing myself to them and their journey.

I was a mom of 3 young boys, with my husband gone and very little time to get out and really work my business.

The gentleman was able to ramp up his traveling schedule and go out and do all kinds of meetings for his team, and he did have great communication and presentation skills that I hadn’t acquired and he was very gifted at getting others excited even to this day.

The other mom was able to have her husband home with her to help with her kids while she and a business partner went on a crazy “home party” and traveling schedule for some time which created all kinds of success for her!

I’m not trying to make excuses for myself but what I am trying to get at, is that it was their time to be able to focus on their business. God had given them the doors to be able to do what they did and they totally deserved all the success they gained.

When I looked back and realized that from the time I started my home business, I had always made it a priority that I would work a very part-time schedule and be home for my kids and not work full time, I realized that I starting taking on their goals (out of my EGO) instead of setting realistic goals for what was best for me and my family’s schedule and lives.

How silly is that?

When we set NEW goals, make sure that they are big enough to get you into action but not so huge that its something that realistically you can do (because of time, financial or other “real” limitations). It’s important to have BIG DREAMS but along the way, you want to set realistic mini-goals for steady upward progression.

So when you go to your company’s next event, don’t compare yourself with others on the stage! They might have a different schedule or priority than you do right now.  They might also be in a different season when they are harvesting from all that they planted.  They might have also increased a skill set that you are still trying to master.

Don’t look around and feel bad...celebrate their success and know that if you are honestly being a good steward of the time you are working your business, God will promote you when you and He are ready!

Embrace the season you are in.  It might be a planting season!  It might be a season of increasing skillset right now…and be open when you are in the Harvest Season!   It’s coming soon!  I promise!

For those of you that read the best success book ever, reflect on this verse!  Galatians 6:4-5

The way we communicate with others has changed in the last few years where everyone from teeny-boppers to grandparents are now on FaceBook and even send out “Twitters” to their followers!

Did you happen to see Golden Girl’s Betty White on Saturday Night Live?

Did you know that she ended up on SNL because of a Fan Page started on Facebook?

She didn’t even know what FACEBOOK was, but the power behind social networking got her there (make sure to watch the clip of her on SNL at the bottom of this post–it’s hilarious)!

Anyway!  Love it or hate it…it’s the way to communicate information quickly and to a broader audience.

News agencies, church ministries, authors, musicians, politicians are now tweeting!

I have heard many celebrities say recently that they NEVER wanted to be on Twitter or Facebook, but have recently gave in too!

In regards to a home business, the best way to ever share what we do has always been by “word of mouth” marketing.  Social Media now allows us to do the same thing but expand our territory– “World of Mouth” marketing has arrived!

Now with that said, make sure that you are not just out there like everyone else and “spamming” your connections with lots of links, videos and information that they haven’t asked for.

Most people are on these sites to “socialize” — hence the word “social networking.”

But if you focus on building relationships and not bombarding them with what you are selling.… then if they have a need that you can solve, they will find you!

Many people spam and bombard people with links and information out of FEAR! Fear of loss, fear of competition…

Don’t do it!

I believe that others are right now seeking for what you can offer them of value and they will find you all in perfect time!

I hope that we have connected as I seriously love learning about others and what they are passionate about and I learn so much from so many of my peers everyday.

Many times, the exact thing I need to hear happens to be one of my friends’ status updates or Tweets!

Do the same…be an encouragement to others today!

Let’s connect!

Here’s some of my favorites…Facebook, Twitter and FriendFeed!

CHECK OUT BETTY WHITE ON SNL!

Recently my family took a trip to the beautiful red rock country of Moab, Utah.  If you have never been there or never even heard of it, you are missing out!

Moab is the home of “Arches National Park” and “CanyonLands.” Many of you have seen it’s beautiful landscape and arches on postcards, movie backdrops (remember Tom Cruise hanging from that cliff taking his next assignment)?

Anyway, you really need to add it to your “bucket list” as a must see once in your lifetime!

People come from all over the world and it was fun seeing how many tourists have invaded that small town (even in a down economy).

Some of our favorites places are:

• Slick Rock Cafe – for good food & music and make sure to ask for Lynell
• “Naked Hippy Falls” – we just found this treasure and we’ve been there many times.  It’s a short hike to an amazing pool and waterfall!
• Arches – “Delicate Arch” is the most famous and breathtaking!
• Slick Rock Bike Trail – one of the most famous biking trails in the world!
• Negro Bill’s Canyon – beautiful hike through shade and steep canyons!
• “Boy Heaven” – that’s what we call it.  It’s a giant hill of red sand that the boys just slide down (many take sleds).

There’s just so much to do there.  We didn’t even have a chance to do all the “touristy” types of activities like rafting, jeep tours, etc. (we are more of a do it ourselves type of family) but if you like tours…there’s tons available.

Anyway, we have hiked Delicate Arch 3-4 times.  The last time we hiked it was when our kids were a lot younger, 6, 4 and 2.

The hike there is probably about 2 1/2 miles uphill over some groomed trails but mainly up steep red rock. There is very little shade and no water.   What you pack in to drink is all you have.

If you are going to do it, leave early in the morning (especially in the summer months).  By 9am, we were already feeling the heat.

The first time we hiked it with the kids, near the top it gets very narrow and you are up against cliff on one side and some pretty dramatic drops on the other.  We laughed as we remember how that time, we put a rope around Walker’s waist (only 2 at the time). This time, he was better aware of his surroundings and not so anxious to run around the hillside like he did as a toddler.

Anyway…it’s still a very long hike for younger kids.  2 of my sons, took off ahead of us (we call them the “goats)…they are just built to climb.

Walker, Stew and I just made our way up.  Walker was getting pretty worn out and I had been trying to keep him positively motivated on the way up (we played some counting games, sang some songs, etc.)   But he had just about had it.

I was a little winded myself but I knew what lied ahead and it’s so beautiful, I knew a little hard work was worth it.

As we were just at the top of another large hill, there was just a tiny bit of shade, so we all took a rest.

A couple passed us coming back from the arch and said to us, “You’re just 3 minutes away and it’s absolutely beautiful!”

That was it!

Walker was motivated again and surprisingly, so was I.  Even though I knew it wasn’t far, the fact that they were encouraging me (and especially my son) was so great!

I thought how so many times in life and in our business, we are so close to the beautiful “ARCH” just around the corner but just can’t see it or how far we have come until someone gives us a little encouragement.

Sometimes others can see how close we are as we are still blinded by all the obstacles and challenges before us.

I was so appreciative of those encouraging words that on our way back, I said to Walker, “okay…now look…here’s some other kids about your age that look tired and so let’s tell them how close they are and how worth it is to get to the top.”

So he started encouraging others on our way back.  What a great kid!

How often do we encourage others in our lives, our businesses, our team?

Can you see greatness in someone else that they can’t see themselves?  Can you see how far they have come when they can’t?

This week, I challenge you to tell someone that they are “only just 3 minutes away!”

Let me know what happens or if someone has ever encouraged you or helped you make it to the top of something you were trying to reach!

I’d love to hear your comments!
