Hi Sandy...and everyone else. For those that don't know me...my name is Rod and I live in the Detroit Michigan area with my wife, our handicapped daughter and my wife's elderly mother. We are "60'ish" with 5 grown kids and 10 grandkids ranging from 7-15.
I managed small businesses for others and then owned my own for years and went into a "semi-retirement" at the age of 49 and since have worked from home doing direct selling and network marketing. My wife was a professional cook...a kitchen supervisor at a private school and owned her own catering business doing large weddings and the like. She quit and sold everything when our daughter and her mother started needing more and more care. She also does direct selling and network marketing from home.
I started this specific journey just 6 months ago. My youngest daughter is getting married on September 30th and at the beginning of this year I weighed in at 310 pounds at a short height of only 5' 8" tall. Not something I wanted to see in a Tux in a photo album that people would look at for years to come. I also wanted to make sure I was still around to walk my baby down the aisle and the way I felt...I was getting a little nervous about that! So I searched around for something to help me with my weight issues. I found Isagenix and researched it long enough to feel it was worth trying. And I have to say it was the best decision for me.
Today is September 10th...exactly 6 months from the first day I started on the program. I started a 9 day fast start on March 10th...lost 18 pounds on that and went right into a 30 day program losing 29 pounds total my first 30 days. And today on the 6 month anniversary of my starting the program I've now lost 100.4 pounds.
And it was the easiest weight loss program I've ever done and I've done a few over all my years! I call them "weight gain" programs because I would take off 30 only to put 45 back on! Hard to follow...left me always hungry...and full of constant cravings...none of which has been true with the Isagenix programs.
I've also gotten back into a gym and have started walking for exercise again...something my weight and joints have not let me do for almost 20 years. I've been practicing healthy eating habits as well. And with all of these...I've been able to drop the weight very quickly but safely and I'll be forever grateful to John Anderson...the founder/formulator of the products...and the help, encouragment and support of so many great friends I've made along the way...Sandy being only one of many.
I have a blog that has links to my picture page and a new 6 month pic will show up there soon. That is Lost My Big Belly.com for those that are interested. New pics were taken this morning.
I feel anyone can use these programs successfully if they are REALLY READY to do something about their weight and overall health as these products/programs address both.
My wife is a 20 year colon cancer survivor and we've heard about cleansing and fiber for all of those 20 years. Isa has the best we've ever used and we've used MANY!!! Our kids are all using the cleanse product and those that do need to lose weight are using the programs. There are more and more family members coming on board weekly and things are working well for all. My wife herself has lost 30 pounds and her doctor has taken her off both blood pressure meds she had been taking for the past 5 years. My kids are reporting weight loss and better energy and more mind clarity. My brother has lost 30 pounds in the past 5 weeks...one daughter...15 pounds over the past few weeks and the stories just keep on coming in! Others in my group are reporting great loss results as well and we are making money! It doesn't get any better than Isa!!!
Thanks for indulging me at Sandy's request!
Rod

Hi there,
Thought I would also introduce myself. I have been married for 45 years. Have two daughters and 5 grand children. I had been slim most of my life until I hit that dreaded word, menopause!!! Add to that a hystorectomy and estrogen and the weight just started piling on and there didn't seem like there was anything I could about it. I went from a size 7 to a size 14/16!! I was devistated. I finally gave up and decided that was the way it was going to be. After all I was a grandma and 60 years old.
In came Isagenix ... lost 10 pounds and 9 1/2 inches in 9 days and went on to go to a size 6/8 over the next two months and have maintained that for 2 1/2 years. I feel awesome, I feel 20 years younger, debilitated headaches are gone, more energy and I feel good about myself again. And if that wasn't enough now I am even earning an awesome income from Isagenix!! They are paying me to eat my overhead ((grins))!!!
