Mommies Need Plexus

Last week I wrote a blog about "How do you do it?". One of the answers to the "how" was "Health". I wanted to dive a little deeper into that just to help other Mommies keep healthy before and during pregnancy, and while their little angel(s) are keeping you busy busy busy!

Let me start with my story. I'll do my best to make it short and sweet while being completely open and honest.

Pre-pregnancy:
So, being completely open and honest, Thomas and I had a hard time getting pregnant. Month after month after month would go by and we would consistently be disappointed as Aunt Flo would visit, or we would only see 1 pink line on my pregnancy test. After 16 months, we were emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually exhausted.
One late night during pillow talk, we decided to stop "trying" and start praying. We asked the Lord to open our hearts to other options like adoption, which we had never considered before. We also decided to focus on other important things, like our health and wellness, and our relationship with the Lord and each other.
It was unfortunately approaching the holiday season. Halloween just passed and Thanksgiving and Christmas was on the horizon! I knew I wasn't going to be able to really "diet", so I decided to take the Plexus supplements to help maintain my weight, take control of my cravings, and keep me "regular" while on my road to health and wellness.

After two months of prayer and Plexus, I found out I was pregnant.

I was completely and utterly shocked. All I could do was thank God and wonder if Plexus had anything to do with it?? Of course the Lord blessed us with the pregnancy, but after doing a little research into it, Plexus does play a roll in balancing your blood sugar and hormones, helping your body do what it was created to do!! Pro-create! I continued researching and found many other testimonies of women who struggled with infertility, and a few months later found out they were pregnant. It was so encouraging and I am so thankful.

Pregnancy:
So a short 5 weeks after I found out I was pregnant, I found out it was with twins. TWINS!!! After the excitement and mere SHOCK of it all, I immediately thought, "OMG... what will happen to my BODY!!!!!" I'm already a tall and curvy girl, and I've seen what pregnancy with ONE baby does to people. So I googled it…. I was horrified. I was scared. I said goodbye to my flat tummy and started to mentally prepare myself that I would never have my body ever again.

3 days before delivery

Well.. I decided to continue with my Plexus since it had done so much for me already. I took Probio5 because my OB said that the babies and I NEED probiotics, I took the Slim drink to help balance by blood sugars because I did NOT want to get gestational diabetes, and I took the BioCleanse because I would go days and days without "going". (Pregnancy is uncomfortable enough! We don't need to add constipation to it!!) I also rubbed the Plexus Body Cream all over my belly every night.

The final result was 45 pounds gained (the average weight gain with twins is 75 pounds), zero complications, NO gestational diabetes, ZERO stretch marks, healthy babies, and zero NICU time (even tho they were premature).

Post-Pregnancy:
So let me just say, taking care of two babies is the hardest job in the world. No one quite understands that statement, unless of course you are a twin mom. And like I said in my previous blog post, if we are not 100% healthy 100% of the time, we can not fully take care of our babies. We need energy, energy, ENERGY! All day and all night. We have to be on our A-game 24/7 so we NEED to take care of ourself!!
Unfortunately, you have no time for yourself! No time to work out. No time to meal plan. No time to cook.  Thankfully, I still had Plexus. I DID have enough time to swallow a few Plexus supplements and drink a bottle of Slim. And just 60 days after delivery, I lost 40 pounds. Now, that my babies are a little older, I do have time to meal plan once a week, and I do squeeze in time every day to work out. But I would not have the energy, or the mental capacity to do this, if it wasn't for my Plexus suppliments.

I am by no means trying to sell anything to you. But I want to help. I want to encourage. Plexus has helped me on every road I've traveled on and I can help you help yourself if you need it!

Try it for 60 days and if you hate it, you get your money back guaranteed. What's to lose? (besides your belly lol- totally joking)

I would love to hear your story and your struggles. Please contact me somehow so we can chat and learn from each other!
