About Me...
My name is Melissa Nichols and I live in a (very!) small town in southwest Iowa. I decided to try Isagenix for a few reasons:
1. To lose weight for my sister's wedding. Who wants to be the "fat" bridesmaid?
2. To become healthier. I used to be healthy, but after moving in with my husband, getting married, and having a baby, I lost a lot of my healthy behaviors. I didn't have time to exercise or the energy to put into cooking healthy.
3. To be a role model for my daughter and potentially the community I live in. I'm currently a nursing student and after learning about diseases and that being overweight increases your risk for many diseases, I wanted to try harder to be healthier.
Though my first intention was to "get skinny"; I've evolved and though being thinner would be ideal, I'd much rather be healthy. Since starting Isagenix, I have spent more time tracking my calories and exercising. I have lost 8% of my body fat and gained 8% muscle. I have more energy, I sleep better at night, and I feel better about myself. I've tried other diet products on the market - diet pills (which made me feel sick and jittery), diet programs such as weight watchers (I gained the weight back when I stopped doing the program), counting calories (which is ineffective because though you might be eating LESS calories, you're still consuming food that is unhealthy), and exercising more (which just made me upset when I wasn't loosing the weight). Isagenix is different - it's not a program that sells you meals and once you quit eating the meals, you gain the weight back. It's not a program that makes you starve yourself or eat food that tastes like cardboard. It's a total life change - eat closer to the land and when you don't consume all those harmful additives, you lose weight and feel healthier!
I recommend that once you decide to start the program, don't back out, keep pushing forward! Use your Independent Associate for help, for guidance, for support, and for advice. The program can be very confusing when you first start - you may not understand, you may feel like you're doing something wrong, you may not realize why the program is set in that certain way - and that's why I'm here. To guide you along your path to weight loss, well being, and health.
