Healthy lifestyle!
May is Lyme Disease Awarness month and being someone that suffers from Lyme disease it is always good to bring awareness to everyone as the weather gets warmer! I did not have the classic bullseye everyone looks for. I did not even have all the classic signs we all look for! I began with severe and when I tell you severe I mean the worst stomach pains ever. I could not eat anything without being in tears, I was dropping weight rapidly, nothing was working and I was getting more and more sick. I was tested for EVERYTHING, I was in and out of doctors daily, the ER at least once a week because the pain was so unbearable and I knew something was wrong. Being told there is nothing wrong with you and that you are basically crazy was so hard because I knew something was wrong and so did everyone around me. But I did find a doctor who helped me and stood by me to figure what was wrong, and finally after almost a 6 months of tests we discovered I had Lyme. An answer finally, but now what? I had to change my diet and when I told Jess she introduced me to the protein powder, it fit with the diet I had to be on to try to get some kind of relief! I was gluten, dairy, soy free, and as little sugar as possible. Arbonnes protein powder was all of these so after being so desperate to try anything I gave the protein a shot! I was able to keep down the shakes and my stomach was still hurting but not as bad. I continued on with the protein powder until she introduced me to the 30 Day to Healthy Living, it fit all my needs, I needed to detox more, which is so important with any autoimmune disease, get your body at an alkaline state so the disease can't thrive. I followed this diet very strict along with the PICC line I had placed and the 30 pills a day I was taking, I was able to finally catch some relief after about a year!! Things were starting to look up for me finally. Jess would try to get me to do the business side of Arbonne I told her no I am in it for the discount lol. Anyone who knows any autoimmune knows the money you spend is outrageous. I did the 30 day for awhile and continue to follow so I do not relapse! But, as I got better and stronger and was needing something more I thought what if, what if this business does work, what if i can make a lot of money with this business, what if this actually works! Well i took the leap and let me tell you something it does work and helping people get healthy and changing lives is why I chose to do this business. The money is great let me tell you but when you get to help someone get through a tough time it makes this so worth it!!!
