Healthy Weight Loss Supplements that Work

Shop

29 Jun

This terrible smile cracks me up but it’s the only semi-decent one we got! I was not having a photogenic day lol…

As you guys know, I’ve been trying to lose weight since I had the babies…and I’ve had a lot to lose! I gained 80 pounds with the twins. I lost 50 in the first 2 weeks but I still had 30 pounds of fat to lose! It’s been really, really hard. I’ve told you this before, but I’m not into taking supplements. I think that losing weight needs to be done the hard-working old fashioned way which is cutting calories and exercising so you’re expending more than you’re taking in.

I’m really good at being consistent in working out, but my hardest part has been cutting out the treats. I’m a sugar-lover! I guess that’s why I’m so sweet. I just like to eat a lot of sugar so I maintain my sweet demeanor. Oh…it doesn’t work that way? I’m a sugar love and I always have been and I always will be. I don’t see that changing any time soon. Oops! I love my rock candy and gummies. Yes, I eat candy like a child. Anyway, when I was approached about taking Advantraslim, I was really not interested at all at first. I thought it was a diet pill and I’m really supportive of that because I want to be healthy.

The more I learned about Advantraslim, the more I thought this was something I could use as a tool to help me cut down my calories. It’s natural and it’s safe and the owner of the company has the exact same views about losing weight as I do. I talked with him on the phone about it to make sure before I tried it! Here’s how it works: The function of Advantraslim is to support an individual with taking back the control with respect to limiting calories. You still have to do the work; it’s simply a tool to help you crave less.  Advantraslim’s main active ingredient is slendesta (all-natural) which is a potato protein that suppresses the appetite for 3-4 hours to limit snacking between meals. Most hardcore weight loss products fill you up with fiber making you feel bloated and a little sick in addition to adding in all kinds of stimulants to make your heart go faster to “burn” more calories. That is not their aim. Advantraslim helps limit calories by satiating your appetite, not filling you up with fiber. THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE TO ME! It truly does work, and I love that there are two versions. The first and original has caffeine in it which I take in the morning. If I took it in the afternoon, I would be up all night. It gives me a great boost to my workout.

I have a code for you to get 40% off their entire site!!! Use code Jenica40 at checkout. YAY! Click here!

There a few options that I would recommend if this is your first time and you need some guidance!

  1. The Sprint Junior package here includes 2 boxes of Advantraslim, 1 box of caffeine-free Advantraslim and 1 water bottle. If you use my code (Jenica40), the package is only $83.97, reg. $139.95. There is one type of variety pack of the caffeine-free version so they’ll send that automatically and then you can choose the flavors in the other boxes. The citrus pack and the party packs are my favorite.
  2. You need to fuel your body with some good protein, so do yourself a favor and try the blueberry protein. I’m not kidding, you’ll never need to order another protein again. It’s sweetened with stevia which is all-natural (not aspartame or other gross sweeteners that are bad for you), and it comes in individual packets so it’s easy to travel with!! This is my favorite green smoothie that I drink almost every morning! It literally tastes like I’m sitting on a tropical beach.
    My Favorite Green Smoothie:
    1 packet WMNutrition blueberry protein
    1 handful of spinach
    4 frozen strawberries
    1/4 frozen banana
    1/2 cup Trop 50 orange juice
    1/2 cup water
  3. I have cravings the worst in the afternoons, so the caffeine-free version of Advantraslim is my favorite. I love that I can take it around 3 pm and curb my afternoon cravings while not having to worry about being up at night.

Let me know if you have any questions! I would never recommend anything that I don’t personally use and love. Have a great day, friends!

    I absolutely love reading your blog and look forward to seeing what is going on with you and the babies each day (I catch up on your Instastories while I pump at work!). I have a 4 month old baby boy myself, and I love your perspective on cherishing every single moment, rolling with the punches, and not worrying about how clean the house, etc. Thank you SO much from one mama to another, you are appreciated!!

    I, like you, am a total sugar lover! I shouldn’t admit to it, but sometimes my lunch consists of candy, cookies, and chocolate. No lie. I was super excited to try this when you first talked about it and got the caffeine free box. My problem is that I don’t (and never have) like the taste of sweeteners and sugar substitutes. I can totally taste it in this stuff. I’m wondering if it’s something that you had to get used to over time or if you add something else to it or if it just never bothered you 🙂
    Thanks for your help and your blog posts and instastories!

      Hi, Dawn! Sugar lovers unite! ha ha ha.

      I actually like the taste of stevia which is what this is sweetened with so I love it! But if I were you, I would mix it in with a fruit and greens smoothie and then I bet you’ll like it 🙂

    I’ve been looking at this supplement. I’m very much like you and I’m a firm believer in losing weight is diet and exercise, there is no magic pill! But since having my baby I have a sweet tooth which I never use to have. I can’t wait to give this a shot. Thanks for sharing.

#ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sl #ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sleep, but you continue to wake up feeling unrested and aren’t sure why.

Your spouse notices you are snoring and they can’t get their own good night’s sleep by sleeping in the same room.

Neither option is any fun for anyone involved!

Snoring can be a symptom. Sleep apnea is where your throat closes off while you are sleeping, which does not allow for proper oxygen flow to your brain, thus leaving you tired the next day….and leaving your spouse sleepless as well.

And we all know that a CPAP machine is not the most user-friendly experience out there…

Enter @Soundsleepmedical. They have created an appliance that gives you sound sleep. The device holds your jaw slightly forward when you sleep so your airway is not blocked at all, and you wake up feeling refreshed and your spouse can sleep back in the same room as you.

Quality of life and a happy spouse is a win-win.

Be sure to use the link in my bio to schedule your free sleep screening. You can use code JENICA to receive a free sleep screening, which includes an in-office consultation and at-home sleep test, along with $50 off your oral appliance.

Sweet dreams my friends.
I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I was deciding if I could handle doing another frozen embryo transfer…and now LOOK at him 🥹 It was one of the hardest years of my entire life. Going through things I don’t wish on anyone. But look at us now 😭 And looking internally…the things I’ve learned.

Tell me about something a year ago for you that you didn’t know you’d get through and can’t believe you are where you’re at 🤍👇🏻 #infertilityjourney #ivfsuccess #frozenembryotransfer
This is it. Not just in motherhood, although moth This is it.

Not just in motherhood, although motherhood really amplifies it, but in life.

It’s the fast days that are loud and sunny.

It’s the slow days that are quiet and snowy.

The mismatched pajamas and the dressed to the nines.

It’s the mess.

It’s the organization and order.

It’s the to-do list that gets crossed off and the to-do list that doesn’t.

It’s in the allowing of both.

It’s in perhaps preferring one over the other, but not judging either.

It’s in the wisdom that both will pass and each have lessons to teach.

Neither is wrong.

Both are allowed.

This is it.

It might feel impossible in the middle of it and y It might feel impossible in the middle of it and you might question everything.

“I have no idea what the future will bring.”

“Will everything I’m putting myself through be worth it?”

“What am I doing?”

“Am I making the right choice?”

But your moments will come. Trust that and let it bring you peace.

The alternative is feeling anxious, which is also completely acceptable and normal, but remember that you also have the option of trusting and feeling peace, too. There is room for both.

You’re not alone in this 🤍

It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the deep, black ocean of IVF again. I knew what I was doing this time and I was filled with fear because…I knew.

When I found out I was pregnant, the fear was my secret. Only a close few knew.

And this space was filled with tears, uncertainty…soul reaching prayers.

Sleepless nights, gut wrenching heartache.

Secrets that I hold close to my heart.

And then he came.

And the healing began.

And the mama, this mama, knew she did it.

That black ocean had swallowed her whole and she’d do it again for the light that is him.

Once she swam to the surface, and jaggedly gasped in the fresh air and felt the sunshine on her face, she knew she would do it all over again.

For this sacred chaos.

Tonight as I was moving the bassinet out of my room, I stopped. The room will soon be cleared. The shelves emptied and the order restored. And I can’t believe that the ocean was conquered. The chaos was where I found the strength and the beauty.

The sacred, precious chaos.
