Hey Friends,

I know you are as happy as I am that the kiddies are back in school! Oh the last few weeks I was ready for them to go back to school. The kids were sick of each other and I was on my last nerve. I love my kids with my whole heart but sometimes us moms just need a break.

Hey, next week is all of our favorite inspirational show! Yep, that is right September 15th is coming up soon. I am excited to watch and see my favorite Designer Whey drinks help people just like me, people who could afford to lose a few or 2 or 3 pounds…lol. Hope you watch The Biggest Loser along with me!

Guess what the weight loss fairy delivered to my house??? My protein water! I will rate according to my tastes. In 4th place is the Orange Mango… I thought too intense orange taste. Maybe like the taste of baby aspirin or very strong tang.  Which I am not so fond of. But for you, you may love it. Probably those of us over 40 can not handle such intense flavor. To me, it was OK but not my favorite flavor of the protein water. In 3rd place is the Cranapple…the only reason it’s not my favorite is I am not an apple juice person. I do enjoy cranberry so for me it was tolerable. In 2nd place is the Pomegranate flavored Protein Water…I very much enjoyed the light fruitful flavor. Camille’s #1 pick is the Blue Raspberry… to me it is perfect! Light, yet flavorful, not too sweet and is very refreshing. My only problem is my 16 year old daughter DRANK all of my Blue Raspberry and Pomegranate Protein Water! UGH! I went to take a bottle with me to work and ALL GONE! Luckily, I found some at our local grocery store.

I have to apologize to all my friends reading this blog. Anyone who reads this blog is my friend! I promise to blog more often, summer is hectic with kids home and watching my friends’ children as well, plus my cleaning jobs. By the time I sat down I was spent. But now that school is back in session and The Biggest Loser Show will be on, I can get back into routine. When you are trying to lose weight routine is essential. I share that with you so I can share things I am doing to get back in the flow of losing weight.

One thing I do now is to always keep a 2-quart pitcher filled with my favorite Biggest Loser Protein Powder both the Red Raspberry and the Blue Blueberry. They only have 40 calories, great flavor and fiber to take the edge off when you are looking for something sweet to have. I put 6 scoops in a 2-quart pitcher and keep in the fridge, ready when I need it. Sometimes, I mix the two flavors for a different twist. Enjoy a cup before dinner and you will eat less, try it! I also

The Biggest Loser Protein Powder Vanilla Bean

LOVE the Biggest Loser Vanilla Bean Flavored Powder. I like to make a creamy shake when the ice cream man is trying to stop by! The chocolate is a great treat, as well, and makes a great meal supplement.  I enjoy adding the vanilla bean to cold coffee; add ice and you have a great low calorie, delicious, ice coffee! Some of those ice coffees can have 400 calories or more! Compared to 50 calories with the Biggest Loser Powders there is no comparison and they are YUMMY! Don’t forget to put a case of bottled water in your car (please recycle or refill) along with a bunch of 2GO packets, they really take the edge off when you are temped to stop by a drive thru, when you know you should not eat fast food.

You can enjoy any of Designer Whey’s Protein Powders. Whether you are trying to lose weight, maintain a healthy weight or building muscle, it’s all good! It works too! I lost 30 pounds in a year. Not a huge change like the Biggest Loser Show but progress; and we need to accept any progress as good! Make your kids a healthy shake after school instead of cookies and milk! I know my kids act a lot better after a Designer Whey Protein shake instead of climbing the walls after cookies. Calmer kids equal calmer parents; and that my friend is a happier home. How about starting their day with a shake at breakfast! They will think you flipped making them a shake for breakfast! But studies show good protein in the morning gets their brain ready for thinking. Kids who have a good breakfast do better in school!

Alright Friends,

I think about you and hope you are healthier today then you were the day before. Drink you whey every day!

Your friend,

Camille

Trainer Becs reporting in on my training for the Tournament of Champions Figure Competition  coming up on Sept. 12th! I finally got up the nerve to send a photo of me what I looked like a few weeks ago. I’m really self concious and just haven’t sent a photo of myself but I thought it would be good to show what Designer Whey has done for me and how it has helped me to transform my body. I took it by myself so it’s kind of a funny pic…oh well. This photo is of me 5 weeks before contest time. I’ll be sending a 3 week photo and then a final one as well. Nothing has helped me more to train for this and I can’t believe it’s almost time for me to compete. I have used every Designer Whey product to help me through these past 12 weeks I have been training.

I use the powder in the jug, orange mango , with water.
Before my workout I will drink a whole Protein Water   or half of the Protein Blitz  . Then drink either or after my workouts and sometimes during. I love all the flavors and use them all.
  

When I’m craving something sweet I use the Desginer Whey Biggest Loser Protein To Go Packs  ( raspberry  and blueberry ) and mix it with one cup of soy milk. The milk helps me to fill up so I’m not hungry.

When I want to go out with friends to dinner or any kind of function I take my To Go Packs of the Orange Mango  and Pomegranate . I recently went to Hawaii and took a whole bunch of these with me and it helped me the entire week not to cheat!!! 
 
This amazing company has helped me these past 9 weeks with muscle building, hunger control and energy! Thank you Designer Whey ! I will have photos coming next week to show me at 3 weeks out!

Hello Friends,
I hope this finds you well and happy. It’s a great day just because it is. I try to have a positive out look every day.

Lots going on; school shopping, summer activities, my oldest is a very smart chick and is doing dual enrollment. Dual enrollment is where seniors in high school can enroll in college and have it be credit towards their high school diploma and earn college credit as well. Best of all the college credits are paid by the high school. Free college credits…yeah baby!

One of my difficulties is being able to stay in routine with my diet. I get enough movement but my weight does not budge. I know it’s my eating. I do well when I use my free diet plan from Designer Whey  but I am also a rebel not submitting to what works. That part of me is difficult for me to understand. I try to analyze myself to figure it out. Someone said I just don’t value myself enough to be the best I can to myself. I am the best I can be to everyone around me. My family has no idea how well I take care of them because they have never been with out my care.

I saw an ad the ‘The Biggest Loser’ is casting again. What a dream, though they are looking for couples at the moment and I really don’t know anyone close that is as big as me or bigger to see if we could get on the show. I think going away and totally working on me and putting myself first, valuing myself for the time that the contestant are away would change my life. Last season my husband jokingly commented “Why don’t you get on that show”, that hurt a bit and when my kids said “Yea, mom you should go on The Biggest Loser show”…OUCH!!!! It makes me wonder what my family really things of me.

Maybe Designer Whey will bring me to them and teach me the ways of health…lol. Did you know Designer Whey is on FaceBook??? I found out recently. Let me tell you, the people behind this product look amazing! They are beautiful people and really stand behind their products and rightfully so. Ok, I have to put a plug in for Andy because he is my Designer Whey buddy and support. OMGsh Andy, I had no idea you were such a cutie patutie! Whey to Go, keep your health and looks dude.

I will be glad when school starts so I can get back to routine. I need to start my day right now with my breakfast of a wonderful Designer Whey Shake, some fruit and a piece of whole wheat toast. I will get back to what works starting with breakfast. I have been skipping that part for a while now…not good. I need to start right to keep right. I need to carry my 2GO packs in the car like I did before. It’s too easy to stop at a drive-thru when you’re hungry. I need to carry my snacks in the car when I am working instead of a quick stop at a gas station to grab something that is not the best choice.

I have to value myself.

Take Care,
Camille

Hello from Ali Vincent! She just got back from representing DESIGNER WHEY and Biggest Loser Protein at the GNC show in Las Vegas

TBL Winner Helen

Alright, I am going to start right off with the winners…Helen won the Biggest Loser Competition and $250,000. Who knew!!!! Her final weigh in was 117 pounds. Tara came so darn close and as most people expected her to win. And the winner of the $100,000 was Jerry. He was booted off in the second week and the oldest contestant TBL has ever had. He lost 177 pounds! That is true motivation that you can do this at home.

The Biggest Loser Protein by DESIGNER WHEY

The public also got to vote in either Amanda or Erin to next seasons TBL. Amanda won and we wish her luck. To everyone who is going for health we wish you much success in your endeavors and don’t forget to include Designer Whey Protein in your meal plans.

See you next season!

Well, one more show after this! The final four (Helen, Tara, Mike and Ron) each came home to very big celebrations. The next morning, the players were all shocked to see boxes marked “The Biggest Loser” waiting for them on their doorsteps. They knew that inside that box contained a challenge. Inside the box was a DVD announcing their challenge and on their television screen was Ali announcing that the final players had 26 days to train, because they would participating in a full 26.2 mile marathon. Yikes! The really exciting apart before they started the marathon was Designer Whey would donate $10,000 to each person if they finished the race to the charity of their choice!

At mile five, Ron had to stop running to get his knee checked out. Meanwhile, mid-way through Tara’s marathon, season five winner Ali Vincent joined her on the run while Helen was joined by last season’s winner, Michelle.

Tara only had one more mile to go and she was joined by Jillian. She warned Jillian that she better keep up because nobody was going to stop her. Tara was the first one to cross the finish line. Again, she wins another challenge!!! Helen was the second to cross the finish line and couldn’t believe she actually did it. Ron’s knee was really giving him problems, but that didn’t stop his determination in wanting to finish the marathon and he finished. YEAH. And at the end of the marathon, they were each handed an oversize check from Designer Whey to their charity of choice.

Photo Sharing – Video Sharing – Photo Printing

Now for the weigh in…Stress is happening with all 4 players.  Ali told everyone that the two players who fell below the yellow line could be eliminated. The player with the highest percentage of weight loss would be guaranteed a spot in the finals, and the two remaining players would find out their fate at the hands of America, who would be voting from home. Oh, the pressure.

The players all lost weight while they were home for the 26 days. But, it was Tara who had lost enough weight to guarantee herself a spot in the finals. Are we surprised? Tara was going to be joined by Helen at the finals. Now, what will America do with Ron and Mike? America will vote one of them in next week. Remember Ron has always wanted his son Mike to be in the finals and pleaded his case to the voting public. Will America agree? We will find out next week!

Biggest Loser Proteins 10oz and 2GO

OMG Designer Whey you donated 40,000 to the Biggest Losers favorite charity! Whey to go! I was so surprised at all the exposure for Designer Whey. I am so proud to be here and witnessing such success! You have a great product and it’s a pleasure to tell about it. Words can not express how excited I was watching the Biggest Loser tonight…I watched it 2 times in a row because I did not want to miss anything. I think I will watch again tomorrow as well.
 

Well Friends, I was glad to see normalcy on tonight’s show. The contestants lost 7-10 pounds in 30 days and I am glad I watched. I was a bit discouraged because I only lost ½ pound this week, the scale read 271.5. I am glad for any loss for I was under a lot of stress and emotions running high. Probably a womanly thing…lol. It was exciting to hear that Ron, Mike and Helen live in Michigan! Oh, a dream to meet them and tell them how much they effect me and my journey to losing it big.
 

I am not sure if I told you all this before but I have a great sister, her name is Ann. She is a Captain in the US Air Force and is serving in Iraq for her second tour. What a strong woman to be able to fight for me and our country. She has great kids and its amazing her dedication to have balance between her family and our country. I know I could not do the things she has done. I envy her life experiences that she has been able to do as a soldier, the places she has been too over the last 20 years and her ability to stay fit. A lot of “older” officers  have let themselves go a bit but not my sister (she is only 29)  she runs, lifts weights and trains…who knows maybe one day I will go running with her or at least a walker race down the hall in some nursing home when we are old…LOL. Keep safe sista! Love you.
Ok Friends, it is whey past my bed time but I had to share how excited I am for Designer Whey and the Biggest Loser contestants. Can you believe it they all completed a marathon! WOW what a dream. Ron is now only 7.5 pound heavier then me… Whey 2GO Ron!
So I am still on my goal from last week to be under 270. I am doing much better this week and will make it.
 

Take care friends, night.

Delicious to mix with water on the go Biggest Loser Protein

Hello Friends,

I hope this finds you well. Today is weight in day and I did pretty well. I weighed in at 272! That makes it 12 pounds in 2 weeks. Thank you Designer Whey for your free diet plan. My goal for next weigh in is under 270.

I think I could have done better because I had cake(2 pieces) this weekend at my nephews’ birthday and also had more cookies then I was supposed to have but I am pleased with the loss that is for sure. I wish I could resist the sweets. I have to admit I really enjoy sweets and do not know how to say no and mean it!

I make no-bake cookies for my sister who is a Captain in our Air Force. I am proud of her. I ship a big batch once a month and made some Sunday but was not pleased with how they turned out. But that did not stop me from eating way more then I should. I have to make a new batch today to send to her. The no-bakes have to be a certain moisture in order to get to Iraq fresh like they have been just made. I send them vacuumed sealed.

I was thinking about serving sizes for my kids. I just realize that the suggested serving size on a package is for an adult and have to stop and think about what it should be for kids. I think the food industry needs to put adult size and kid’s size on the box. I have my kids read the serving size and measure out what they are suppose to have but forget that the serving size is for an adult… just something to think about.

It’s warm here in Michigan but not for long. We got a lot of needed rain over the weekend.

Hope your week goes well. I am looking forward to watching the Biggest Loser this week. Only 2 more episodes before the season ends.

Hello Friends,

Biggest Loser Protein Blue Blueberry Protein2Go

Hope this finds you well.
Did you watch the Biggest Loser last night? I did. Some things just blow my mind away…a concept that I and many others have yet to reverse in our minds…we have to eat to lose weight! I am talking about the segment where Bob watches a food video diary that the contestants did. Bob was upset at their food choices because the contestants were trying to make their favorite foods but at the lowest calories and Bob was like no no no…yes LOWER calories but MORE quality calories especially protein and carbohydrates at every meal. Then Bob brought out my favorite protein…Our Designer Whey Powder…he had the contestant add a scoop to his water…very cool to see. I love blogging on Designer Whey’s site, I believe in sharing my thoughts on the best product out there.

I was looking at the graphs on my FREE diet plan from Designer Whey and I can see my protein level was only at 88%. I still am not getting enough protein.  Today I decided to carry my Lite and Lean 2GO Packets with me and when ever I drink a bottle of water I am going to add a pack. Yesterday and the day before I was just so pooped out. See, I clean houses for my exercise sometimes 6 hours a day of vigorously cleaning and I get paid too! When I checked my diet plan graphs and did not think about it until Bob said…”you have to have good quality protein to have the energy to burn fat and lose weight”. Then a light went on, maybe that is why I am so tired! Add a pack of lite and lean to your water bottle, its only 30 calories, taste great and gives you the energy to burn fat! Plus an added bonus the 2GO Lite and Lean contains 5g of fiber. SO you can take your 2GO with you and it will also help you to go! lol

Beautiful day here in Michigan. Have a good one.
Camille
