Well, I feel like I'm in a waiting game.
I've had more energy, but this last week I've had tons of heartburn. I'm in the process of writing down what I eat and drink to find this cause. I know the Thrive Experience is an Eight Week Process so I want to see this through.
Stay tuned...

Really???
I was reading the packaging the THRIVE Premium Lifestyle DFT patch came in...
Clean and dry an area of the skin, PREFERABLY IN A LEAN AREA, such as the bicep, shoulder, inside forearm or top of the buttocks. REALLY??? Let's be very honest. If I had a lean area on my precious body I wouldn't have been looking for help with weight management to start with! :)
Life really does feel better with humor! It makes me stronger...

Shakeo & Thrivin'
In my journey for better health (and normal weight) this summer I have been following the Beach Body Program 21-Day Fix. It's a great program that I really like it that promotes my daily goals of drinking half my body weight in water, clean eating, and exercise. My only issue is that my hormonal body wasn't letting go of any pounds. I Know, I KNOW, it takes time... but when a person has tried and failed as many times as me to shake unwanted pounds discouragement happens. I knew I needed more help with my ruined metabolism.
This is where Thrive entered my picture. I have a friend that has battled pounds about as many times as I have. She suffered from aches, pains, weight gains, and migraines. A co-worker of her husband introduced them to Thrive. She jumped on the bandwagon and after a matter of two-three weeks she posted a before/during pic on FB and I couldn't get over the glowing condition of her facial skin. She radiated!
These are advertised benefits of the Thrive program:
Thrive W: • Weight Management • Cognitive Performance • Joint Support • Inflammation Support • Anti-Aging & Antioxidant Blend • Lean Muscle Support • Digestive & Immune Support
Thrive MIX: • Ultra Micronized • Nutrient Mineral Dense Formula • Probiotic & Enzyme Blend • Antioxidant & Extract Blend • Lean Muscle Support • Weight Management or Fitness • Gluten Free
Thrive DFT: • Weight Management • Mental Acuity • Appetite Control • Derma Fusion Technology • Metabolic Support
I really started taking note and decided to jump in. The initial package I chose wasn't inexpensive, but I decided to purchase it instead of a new purse that I really didn't need! I signed up for auto-ship and received a discounted price. :) As an added benefit if two more people order auto-ship after me my product be FREE! It would be nice, but it's already worth the monthly cost even if that never happens.
I take the two capsules as my head leaves my pillow. Twenty to forty minutes later I fix a supplemental shake and apply the DFT patch. THAT'S ALL for the day. From here I'm free to just focus on my water intake and clean eating.
About three weeks ago I ordered just the DFT patch. I have a long history of caffeine intolerance so I was very skeptical that I would be able to use it. I used half of a patch the first two days. Day one I wasn't sure, one very short incident of palpitations... Day two I didn't experience any palpitations. From there on out my body adjusted with no side effects.
I started this new three-product regimen last Saturday, August 8 while in the middle of hosting Cousin Camp with my eight Littles. Days one and two I took only one capsule in the morning and used half a scoop of the shake powder, along with the DFT. From Day three and on I've used the recommended 'dosages'.
I have had super energy to follow everyone during Camp. The Littles and I have ridden miles on our bikes, climbed park equipment, played ball, swam and chased two two-year-olds! I did fall into bed every night and slept well. Every morning I was ready to do it all over again!
I haven't taken measurements since I started but I could tell this morning that much of my abdominal bloat had disappeared!
Stay tuned to see what happens!

And So It Begins...
This is the beginning, the first day of the rest of my Stronger life! I spent the summer in a women's Bible Study entitled "Stronger". That's what I want to be: Stronger! At this time in my life I'm choosing to focus on my spiritual health in conjunction with improving my physical health.
The past nine months in my story have been a rather difficult ride. A roller coaster to be exact, and if you know me well, I HATE ROLLER COASTERS! God has been faithful and I've been convicted that it's now time to take control of MY PART in this experience to become Stronger... Dependent on Him, yet not a victim to circumstances. The ride isn't over and I'm sure there are still many twists and turns that will develop, along with horrendous dips and exhilarating up-swings.
After my mom died twelve years ago I quickly developed into an emotional eater and embraced the notion that I had a valid excuse. BUT, about two years ago I was convicted by God that the excuse has to end. First and foremost Mom would have been the first one to chastise me for using her as an excuse to overeat! I watched her fight the battle to keep her weight in check. I always admired the fact that when she was tuned in she had willpower of steel. I DON'T!
This journey has led me to Scripture study dealing with emotions and finding strength in my relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. My Stronger blog will be a place for me to journal all of the randoms that have come through my life. Each entry may seem independent but I KNOW there is a thread that will run through all of them, forming the Tapestry of Tam woven my God Almighty. I know the bottom of my tapestry may look pretty deformed with all of the knots and frayed ends, but God sees my big picture from the top and assures me the final product is BEAUTIFUL! Don't get me wrong, I love my life! Hubby and I have been blessed with three beautiful children that have been blessed with three beautiful spouses, inside and out. Their marriages have blessed us with eight of the most amazing grandchildren anyone could ask for... (and I'll always take more!)
May God give me strength for this roller coaster ride!
