Kim
and I have been friends for more than 27 years.
We are only 3 days apart in age and we turned 40 this
year (don’t tell her I told you, she’s a little sensitive
about it). For
the last couple of years we have been talking about doing
something special for our 40th; just the two of us.
We knew we were going to fly away somewhere but
hadn’t decided on the destination.
In March 2008, Kim told me of an Isagenix® conference
that was to be held in Vegas in August and she was hoping to
attend. I
suggested we go together and kill two birds with one stone;
celebrate our birthdays and attend the conference.
I
knew of Isagenix® through Kim but hadn’t really gotten too
involved with it. Like
many people, I am a skeptic.
While attending the Isagenix® Celebration 2008
conference, my words to Kim were “this is something I must
be a part of”. There was an overwhelming sense of purpose amongst the 6,000
in attendance. That
purpose was to help people.
By now you know that
purpose is my passion.
Over
the last 8 years I have gained about 60 pounds, 25 of which I
gained within the last few months.
I was diagnosed with and have been medicated for
Hypothyroidism since 1996. It turns out since my last blood
test a year ago, my condition has worsened and likely accounts
for the 25 pounds but not
the other 40 (good food and good wine got me there).
I
have started on the Isagenix® program and I know that it will
work for me. I
have a coach, supportive family and friends (especially Kim),
nutritional products and most importantly, passion
for (this) people - me.
I
invite you to follow me on my journey and I welcome the
opportunity to help you begin yours.
