Post 1: TMI ALERT!

Remember when I shared yesterday and I said it is about GUT Health my friends? Well, let me tell you a little story.

Once upon a time, when I was born my parents got a HUGE surprise. Not only were they having me, I was born with a birth defect called Gastroschisis. (Rare! Even spell check doesn't recognize it.)

Basically, during my development an opening formed in my abdominal wall. My bowel pushed through the hole and developed outside my body. When I was born...they thought I was a boy. Nope Doc...that was just intestine.

I know, a lot to swallow! I was then raced to surgery in a helicopter to be put back together. I survived.

No belly button but I am here today!

The big celebration my parents tell me was when I finally POOPed on my own!

Here is the TMI part!

Guys! 3 weeks ago I was STILL celebrating when I went potty! I have NEVER been regular. IBS all the way! I have tried everything! Increase your fiber they say, eat more fruit, try a stool softener, the list goes on and on. A doctor once told me what was normal for me was normal. That IS NOT CORRECT!

I talked to you yesterday about my weight loss and my increase in energy! I truly believe it is because my system is regulated!

Triplex is simple: It weeds, seeds, and feeds your gut!

WEED: Bio Cleanse

SEED: Probiotic

FEED: SLIM Microbiome Drink

That's it! I am a lifer!

Post 2: Doing my best at this!  As I have gotten older, I have learned that my gut health is soooo important. I have been working for a long time on taking care of myself from the inside out.   That is how I started my journey with Plexus.  I got serious about me and I am soooo glad I did!

aI stated with intermittent fasting.  In a nut shell, intermittent fasting is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of fasting and eating.  I keep mine simple.  

I eat dinner between 6:00pm-7:00pm.  Then I only have water until morning.  I then have a cup of coffee with simple creamer and collagen.  My favorite is Joyome Multi-action Collagen from Plexus. As I get ready, I have a cup of black coffee too.  

I am also using the Triplex program from Plexus so I add a big glass of water and my Bio Cleanse. Around 10:00am I have my first SLIM drink that balances my blood sugar and keeps me on track. 

I have my first meal at 12:00pm for lunch.  I often will do a salad with grilled chicken or a wrap.  I LOVE hummus and guacamole too!  I try to mix it up but I squeeze in a protein and a veggie for lunch each day!  Its almost soup season so that is for sure going to happen!

4:00 and I take my Bio Cleanse and have my SLIM...totally gets me to dinner!  

I have been adding lots of fish lately at The Schroeder House!  Blackened salmon is my favorite and it makes amazing fish tacos for lunch the next day!
