I Tried To Quit Plexus


I stopped taking my Plexus supplements.

No more "pink drink", no more probiotic, no more BioCleanse, no more multivitamin, protein powder...nada.

AND IT WAS THE WORST DECISION EVER!!

Ok, so maybe that title is a little dramatic.

I didn't try to quit, it just kind of happened!

I slowly ran out of a supplement or two, and life just got busy and I didn't think I'd miss them that much. So I just let them all run out.

I was aware that I should really get some more, but I tried to convince myself that Plexus supplements didn't really make that much difference.

And you know what happened?

I started feeling like crap again.

I felt like I did before I found Plexus - headaches, tiredness, upset stomach and irregular BMs, not sleeping as well, more breakouts, and more irritability. I was starting to wonder what was going on with me when I thought, "when was the last time I drank my Slim? Or took my BioCleanse and Probio5?!" 

 And then it was a lightbulb moment for me.

The fact that my body was having such a hard time made me realize just how much my supplements were doing for me! My Plexus supplements were working, and I gave up on them!*

 You see, I've been on this journey of seeking increased health and happiness for awhile now. From August 2016 - August 2017, my husband was deployed overseas. To briefly sum up that year, it was a struggle to keep up with my physical and mental health. I went into survival mode, and I've been digging hard to come back out of it. In January of 2018, my husband and I had a talk and he made me realize that I wasn't myself. I knew I needed to make some changes to be better for myself, for my husband, and for my kids.

So I've been eating more clean, setting more goals for myself, focusing more on self-care, working out regularly, finding personal development books to read, basically anything to improve my overall well-being. I've been documenting it along the way mainly on Instagram (for some reason that felt like a safe place to start!), but now I feel like I need to share elsewhere, too.

I. CAN'T. GIVE. UP. ON. PLEXUS!!!

It's been way too important for my health and happiness!

I was active in my Plexus business for 2 years and then I took a break. I was in that pivotal time where I was learning about myself and deciding what I wanted out of life, for me. Sometimes you just need to take a break, or take a step back to gain some perspective. I spent a lot of time thinking and praying and just wondering.

And I've made the decision to RE-LAUNCH my Plexus business!

I just can't live without my health and happiness company! Health and happiness is literally my exact journey right now, and I realized just how much these supplements do for me! They make me feel so great - which is the most lackluster adjective EVER to explain these products - but I don't think the word exists to describe the feeling!

I keep sharing my journey on Instagram because I have wanted other people to realize the power of putting your health and happiness FIRST! That can feel very challenging when we seem to be pulled in so many different directions in our lives! But you have to make yourself a priority!! At first, it kind of feels selfish, but once you start seeing how much better you feel, you suddenly understand it is SO. WORTH IT!!

Ever heard people say, "you'll never regret spending money on traveling!"?

I feel like the same applies to your health! You'll never regret spending money on your health! Supplementation is preventative healthcare! And when you feel healthy, you feel HAPPY!!

 I have made a lot of positive changes over the last few months, and I'm focused on my Plexus supplements, my workouts (more on this later!), my diet (I have SO much to share about this!!), and my mental health (we neeeeeed to talk about this more!). I'm feeling pretty proud of my progress so far! Health and happiness is a journey, not a destination, so I'm even more focused on how I can make these permanent lifestyle changes. Mental health is so so so so important, and I feel like my mind is in a lot better place than it was this time last year. I'm so glad that I jumped up and decided to do something about my own state of mind and my physical well-being!

I'm so excited to continue to share about my health and happiness journey with you all!!

And get ready for my Plexus Re-launch SALE!! You can't have a Grand Re-Opening without a good sale - coming SOON!!

Easy-Peasy Pumpkin Decorating

I sure haven't gotten around to doing much decorating for the Fall. I'm feeling sort of "Bah-humbug" about Halloween this year. I did buy some pumpkins.  And then I put them outside the garage door.  And that is about all the effort I have put forth so far.  Last year I was inspired to do some creative chevron painting on my pumpkins and use decorative ribbons. For whatever reason, this year I've been so lazy and wanted something with less effort required.  Is that bad of me?! I got my act together today and put some spider web on my now dead bushes in the front of the house (yeah I managed to kill those - I did not consider how much the dirt would settle and the top two inches of the roots became exposed. Lesson learned!). I also put some up on the brick wall by the garage. That stuff sticks perfectly to the texture of the brick!  Then I put my pumpkins by the door. I had a few pairs of black textured tights, so I put one leg of

The Tears Won't Stop

I can't sleep, guys. Valentine's Day is coming up soon. And tonight, the tears started, and they just wouldn't stop. 2008 was truly an unbearable year. A lot of you know my story and the connection here, but many of you don't. I don't think that I've shared about the whole year, all together. I've been told by a few very supportive friends that my story could basically be a Nicholas Sparks movie; I think the ending is still being written. So, I'll do my best to get it all in writing, in one place. To start off, you'll need a little background information. It's mid-2007, and I am about to head off for my senior year of college, and my boyfriend (now husband) was about to embark on his first tour of duty overseas as a Military Police Reservist. My mom was 1 year into her cancer diagnosis, and was experiencing back pain, which she attributed to working in the yard so much that summer. After the New Year, Chris was about halfway t

That's My Story and I'm Sticking To It

Pinterest is amazing . Have you heard of it? I hope so, because if not, you are truly missing out. It has almost become the new "Google" for some (me). I am more likely to hop on Pinterest to search for a yummy recipe than search on Google. I would like to point out, however, that Google has a recipe tab that you can click on, and then on the left side of the screen you can checkmark the boxes to indicate if you want that ingredient to be present in your recipe. Kinda handy if you are looking for a recipe and you can only remember a few ingredients in it. Anyway, browsing Pinterest has led me to great ideas, recipes, products, and left me drooling over dream homes and a wardrobe to die for. But recently, as Pinterest has become more popular, I have noticed some really dumb links. I am not typically one to point out stuff like this, but some of these things just crack me up! I'm not sure I get this. This image is suggesting that this is an acceptable way to re-sea
