Our Health Journey

I really had thought that my diet would get completely blown to heck as we’ve been on vacation this past week, but all in all I’d say it’s been remarkably easy to stick to it.

What’s made it so easy is that the Shaklee Cinch Shake mixes come in convenient single-serving packets (in addition to the canisters), so they pack easily, and if I’m going to be out all day I just toss one in my bag with the shaker cup. Then all I need is some cold water to mix it with (I think they taste just fine mixed with water even though the directions say to mix Cinch with milk or soy milk).

I really thought it would be tough because always before when traveling it seems like my hunger gets ramped up (I guess from being much more active than when I’m at home) and I wind up eating things that are quick and easy, instead of healthy. But the great thing about Shaklee Cinch is that it’s formulated with a lot of protein and fiber, which helps me feel full and gives me more energy, so I haven’t been feeling that need to snack as I always have on past trips. In addition, Shaklee Cinch is “powered by leucine”, which is an important amino acid that helps you to burn the fat and keep the muscle.

So whereas before I’d always gain a pound or two while traveling, this time I’m down a couple of pounds! I can’t wait until my next trip!
