We are seeing lives changed. I am constantly amazed at the stories I hear from people who find this healthy chocolate have the courage to try it and find problems going away they had lost hope on. We heard from several people tonight at the Wellness Tour in Portland, Or. I got to share as well as 8 others in this area that were part of the 50 chosen. I decided it was time to share a piece of my story today with you:
Rewind 2 years, at 26 I found myself in a place wanting to start a family. However climbing the one floor to my apartment made me winded, I had no sick time left at work because I was ill all the time and I cried because I felt I had no right to bring a little life into this world that would depend on me when I couldn’t take care of my own self, much less that of my husband and a baby. So I made changes took out beef, tried to be more active and counted my 1200 calories. I did lose I went from 245 down to 209. I was cranky, hungry and depressed because it didn’t matter what I did at this point I couldn’t lose another ounce. I started cheating more and more eventually gaining some weight and settling at 212. I gave up home I would ever be a fit skinny person. I stopped looking into mirrors it was better to pretend in my head I was a beautiful person because I was inside. I felt like this was as good as it was going to get. God then took us down a path we did not plan for and my husband signed into the military as an officer. In order to accomplish this he started running again getting in shape and eating losing weight. This is when the alarms went off in my head. I was getting left behind. I felt unworthy to be on his arm at future soldier meetings. I panicked that he was going to be ashamed of me and I had to face that I was ashamed of myself. This program, as cliche as it sounds changed my life. I not only lost the weight in inches I lost the emotional weight.

I was in Macy’s one day needing new pants because my “skinny” pants were too big and out of habit went to the woman’s department. I started to look at the clothes when the tears started to flow. My husband leaned over wrapped and arm around me and ask me what was wrong. Tears staining my face I looked up at him and said “I don’t belong here. For the first time in my life I feel out of place in this section, and I am NEVER coming back” I have my hope back, I can dream again. We can work together to change the world and bring people their hope back. 2 out of every 3 people need to lose weight. And that third person is probably a professional athlete and needs the shake anyway as a protein source to add to their diet.

So who do you know that needs to be healthier, lose weight or build muscle? Who do you know that needs hope to see their dream again? I am offering you a vehicle to change lives and reach your own dreams message me or visit thepurplemana.com learn why this works.

I am featured on this video promoting the Wellness Tour. I will be there come out and see me!

As we are wrap up the end of week 12 and the end of the protocol (but not the end of my journey) I have learned one major thing about myself. My number one enemy is stress. Emotional stress triggers my body to hang on to weight, it give me the feeling that I want comfort food and seems to trigger the craving for junk food. Hamburgers, pizza and huge loaves of bread slathered in butter seem to be my cravings of choice. Never before has it seemed so easy to say no to those things. I have tried many diets before and when the cravings got really bad I would give in and try and work it off later. It amazes me the foods I am liking now I never used to before. Things like asparagus, brussel sprouts and cabbage. Spices like chili powder and cayenne powder seems to be used increasingly more often. I learned when I am stressed I craved sugar and grease. Since cleaning that out of my body I enjoy more foods and a wider array of foods.

As an artist I can only relate this in a artistic way. My body is a paint pallet and all I was using was grey and black, never cleaning off my pallet and starting over. I couldn’t understand why when I tried to use yellow, orange and vibrant reds they came out as browns and flat lifeless colors. I have finally scrapped of the crusty dried up paint washed my pallet and can finally see a whole spectrum of colors I never knew existed.

Stress kept me from cleaning out my pallet and always reaching for the same comfortable grays. I am in control of the painting of my life now and I can see the canvas for what it truly can be. The possibilities are endless but now I can choose any color I want. And I want the same for you too. What color do you want to paint your canvas?

Why on earth would you want to try a high-ORAC diet? Can it really help you lose weight and get the results you want? Can it really slow aging, boost your energy, and make you feel better than you have in years? Yes! Combined with other high-antioxidant foods, your answer to weight loss is right here with the Xoçai High Antioxidant Wellness System™. Researchers are finding that high antioxidant diets—especially those of approximately 50,000 or more ORACfn every day—tend to produce more lost pounds. Of course, antioxidant-rich diets generally make you healthier in all areas—including cardiovascular health, brain function, digestion, skin health and anti-aging—so it’s not a surprise that weight loss is among the benefits. The good news is that Xoçai’s Healthy Chocolate™ products are among the highest ORAC products available today. And now, with the X-ProteinMeal™ Shake—which boasts of an amazing Total ORACFN score of over 50,000 per serving—you can significantly boost your antioxidant (ORAC) intake and lose weight at the same time!

If you are pregnant, nursing, on medication, have a medical condition, or are beginning a weight control system, consult your physician before using Xoçai™ products.

For the first time ever I can see myself getting to 130 pounds. Being one of those children who has always struggled with my weight I did not know what healthy meant or how to cook it. Being teased for my weight was normal and mirrors didn’t exist in my head. Running was for crazy people who had no life and exercise was what my thumbs did while playing video games. As I am ending the 12-week time period for the protocol Monday the 13^thI am amazed that I have no plans to change what I am doing. I like the shake and wouldn’t want to live without it. The thought of a greasy hamburger kinda makes me want to gag. I find myself watching what my husband is eating and thinking “How can you eat that yuck!” When 12 short weeks ago I would have eaten the same thing.  I am not stressing that I will gain the weight back because I know I won’t.  I have not only made a lifestyle change I have completely changed the way I think. I realized how much my life revolved around food and how wrong that was for me. I ate when I celebrated, ate when I was depressed and ate when I was bored. Not only did I eat for the wrong reasons I ate the wrong foods like hamburger, pizza and chips. I just stand amazed at where I was and where I am and the knowledge that I am going to go so much further. 12 weeks ago a spark of hope that I might actually control my weight has ignited into a blazing sun not only controlling but conquering my weight in a way I never thought to comprehend. If I could Vulcan mind meld with people to show them the transformation I would because I am at a loss for words with how changed I feel and I am not sure anyone believes me anyway.

Have you ever sat at work staring at your computer screen and thought ” My brain is leaking out my ears?” Well that was me today. Working in a Call Center means extended periods of time on your rear answering the same questions over and over. Today I finish my motorcycle visualization. In my future I am skinny and obviously wealthy enough of the purple motorcycle. Let me finish our bike ride.

You pull into the driveway, gracefully missing the Mercedes-Benz the company gives you, black of course. You open the garage and park your purple bike. Hanging your helmet and riding gear you grab the mail and head for your art studio. The studio has skylights to let in the natural light for perfect lighting the majority of the day and remote covers for lighting control. You have a whole wall of canvases ready to paint and buckets of paint, brushes and additives. You open the mail and yawn.  “Hmmm, another one of those pink checks from your Healthy Chocolate company guess I should probably cash that” Life couldn’t get any sweeter.

Hope you enjoyed my vision into the future. Please share with your friends and comment! Thanks.
