1st Advocare Meeting/Conference

This past Saturday I went to my very FIRST Advocare meeting/conference in Plano. WOW what a freakin blessing I tell ya! I can not even begin to explain it. I felt so loved, accepted and felt right at home with the 1,000+ people there!! :)

People talked about their journey through Advocare and how blessed they were. I can not wait to have a success story.....I am on my way!

After the all day event, we went to the Hailey's house and hung out and was again blessed beyond anything I ever thought.

Life as I KNEW it......

I used to be down and sad all the time....and you know who knew it?? NO ONE except me and God. I used to put a smile on my face, go out have fun, and acted the way that I thought everyone else wanted me to act. I did not want to be the sad/depressed friend. So I went out, got in a lot of trouble, did alot of things I am not proud of, got in TONS of debt....and for what?? TO MAKE OTHERS HAPPY! I wanted to be the life of the party and I was.

Soon I realized that was not going to cut it in the long run. I changed my ways. I stopped going out [for the most part], I stopped hanging out with the friends that brought me down and only wanted to be around me if I was partying or buying things. I changed and believe me it was not over night but I also didn't become the "party girl" overnight either. I felt so much better about myself. I slowly got myself out of debt. Got an amazing job. Realized who my TRUE friends were. Starting talking to God again. It was a slow process and by all means are no where near where I want to be.

I was so happy but something else was missing and I could never put my finger on it. Until one day, God told me to find out about Advocare. I know that I have said this and I will continue to say this. GOD led me to Advocare. GOD put it in my heart to find out more. GOD has put some AMAZING people in my life. GOD has been there the whole time even when I didn't think anyone in the world cared. GOD WAS THERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE.

Today is day 11 of my Advocare journey and it is apparent that I am doing so much better than I was 11 days ago. Who would have thought?!!? I can't believe how I feel. I can't believe the compliments I have received. I can't believe that I am starting to feel like me again before all this mess.

I pray like 5541545 times a day not only for me but for me to be a testimony to others about God's great power and love for me and for them. I can't wait to be able to tell others--HEY I have been in your shoes and it is not easy but there is a solution out there. GOD loves you and only wants what is best for you. Pray to Him and He will show you the way.

I can't wait to throw habits out the door and start with new ones. The life as I once KNEW it....

I saw this quote the other day and it has stuck with me since....

"It's not that some people have willpower and some don't. It's that some people are ready to change and others are not."

I am not where near where I need to be but I am on my way. I may slip up and I may fail but I know there is someone guiding my every single footstep.

Wow.....

Wow so I am so excited not only am I feeling better....I got my first compliment today!

I had a co-worker tell me that she could see a difference ALREADY! She said I was looking good! :) YAY! What a motivation to continue this!! I am so excited....

:) :) :)

Day 3....:)

So its day THREE and i feel amazing! I have been eating right and sticking to the 24 day challenge! :)

First off-the fiber drink in the morning is GROSS--NOT going to lie! It isn't the taste of it but the texture. I have to mix with a ton and a half of COLD water and plug my nose and just chug! :)

Despite the yuckiness-I feel amazing! I have so much more energy and just feel better!

I have no idea if anyone is reading this but just if you are keep me in your prayers and just ask for motivation and strength through this whole process! :) Thanks....

My Advocare Journey [One Step at a Time]

Hey ya'll-I'm Kat. I am 25 years old and have recently become a Advocare Distributor! I could not be more excited and blessed to be going through this journey. I am a mix of emotions right now. I feel BLESSED, happy, scared, hopeful, worried and pumped!! :)

I am so happy that God put it in my heart to contact an Advocare representative.....! Let me start from the beginning and I hope that you enjoy going through this journey with me.....

It all started one lazy afternoon. I was just sitting on my couch being lazy and feeling sorry for myself. I was unmotivated to do anything. I just wanted to watch TV, sleep and eat. That was my daily routine-sometimes I would go out with friends or do little things but usually just nothing. I was sitting on the couch like I said, and GOD put it in my heart to contact Brittany Baker. We went to high school together and I always noticed she was putting things up about Advocare on Facebook. I wanted to know more. I messaged her and just asked if she could help me lose weight, feel better and get motivated.

She responded almost immediately! I was so happy! She told me that it was weird that I had messaged her because she had been "creepin" on my photography page. I knew right then and there that this was God telling me to look into Advocare and not just me.

Brittany wanted to talk a little more and wanted to know what I wanted out of Advocare. I told her I wanted to lose weight, have more energy, get motivated and just be healthier!

I prayed and prayed about it and still felt like this was the way to go! I told my mom [which I thought was a good idea at the beginning]-and she was MAD!! She was worried that I would get back into debt or I would not be spending my money wisely! I told her that it was not a rush decision and that I felt the God brought me to this. I told her I was going to do it-with or without her help-BUT it would be easier with her support, love and prayers.

I got invited to a ladies mixer and mom eventually asked if she could come with me. We went and by the end of it-mom was ON BOARD!! :)

I became distributor and bought the 24 day challenge and catalyst. I started yesterday! I am so excited to continuing documenting my progress and seeing if I can reach my goals!
