Day 1 of the Healthiest Loser Cinch Challenge!

I hope everyone had a great weekend and didn’t eat too much candy!

I am so excited that today is November 1st! Today I started the Healthiest Loser Cinch Challenge. If you have never heard of it before and you would like to catch up on all of the buss, just Click here.

Here is a short video about the Cinch challenge.

The first day of any diet is always the worst and the best at the same time. The worst because I don’t like see how much I weigh.  Although it is the best because I know that in a short 12 weeks I won’t be that weight anymore!

The last time I did this plan I lost 17lbs but 19 1/2 inches. I went from a size 12/14 to a size 6/8

Just to have you all help keep me accountable for my word while during this challenge, I am going to share all of my information with you.

I weighed in this morning at 155.4 lbs.

I also measured a couple different parts of my body. The reason you measure is to make sure that you can truly see how many inches you are loosing. It isn’t called the Cinch Inch loss plan for a no reason. You are going to loose inches and lots of them.

Right Arm: 13 1/4
Left Arm: 12 3/4
Chest: 38
Waist: 30
Belly Button: 34
Hips: 41 ¾
Right Thigh: 25
Left Thigh: 24 1/2

Say help to your skinny pants pile. I know we all have them; those pants that you just love that you don’t fit into any more. Well now is that time.

I just got all of my Cinch products today and I am off to a great start!

So far today I have already had a Chocolate Cinch Frape and a Strawberry Cinch Shake. I love this challenge.

What is the Challenge?

Join a group of serious people who want to lose weight during the three holiday months that usually present us with the biggest weight maintenance challenges. By starting now, we’ll not only avoid gaining extra weight, we’ll even lose weight!

What is Cinch?

The Plan involves setting personal goals and following guidelines based on how much you want to lose and your current weight and activity levels. If you have dieted before, this may sound familiar, but the familiarity stops here. Cinch works by preserving your lean body muscle mass and promoting your weight loss from fat. When you keep lean body mass, you maintain your metabolic rate or calorie-burning ability. Cinch is designed to help you break the cycle of dieting, falling off the wagon, and dieting again.

The exclusive Cinch Inch Loss Plan products are powered by leucine, an essential amino acid that helps you maintain lean muscle while you lose inches. Oh, and they taste good.

The Shaklee Difference

Cinch products are:

ALWAYS SAFE

Based on over 50 years of nutrition science expertise
No artificial flavors or sweeteners
Healthy rate of weight and inch loss

ALWAYS EFFECTIVE

Powered by Leucine, which helps retain muscle while you lose fat
Pilot study showed participants retained 100% of lean muscle mass while losing an
average of: (in 12 week study)
16.3 pounds of fat
4.1 inches from their waists
2.6 inches from their hips

More than 90% of participants in a study reported having “very good” energy levels

Officially tested to have a low glycemic index for a more steady rate of digestion and better hunger control

ALWAYS GREEN

Non-GMO soy protein
Recyclable packaging

The Value of Cinch

Cinch is the real deal. With the Cinch Inch Loss Plan, which includes a regimen of protein-packed shakes and energy-boosting teas, you will lose inches and pounds. Period.

Our medical doctors, nutritionists, and scientists have drawn on years of sports and nutrition science to develop a plan that works. In fact, those who participated in our clinical study lost an average of 16.3 pounds of fat, 4.1 inches from their waists, and 2.6 inches from their hips over a 12-week period.

Easy on Your Wallet

Why pay for calorie-rich fast food that can add more inches to your waist when you could have a tasty, wholesome, protein-rich Cinch meal replacement for a fraction of the cost?^†

For steady weight loss, this plan has everything your body needs to help you increase your muscle mass. Increasing muscle mass improves metabolism, which helps you to keep those extra pounds off, long-term.

Chocolate Cinch Frape TTT # 11

 

Happy Tuesday!!
A lot of people might not agree with me about the beauty of Tuesday although it is a great day for many reasons:

1) It is not Monday!
2) It can only go up from here!
3) You know that after tomorrow the week is half over!
4) You still have some left over energy from the past weekend!
And last but certainly not least.
5) Each day you wake up is a gift from God and we should appreciate each day as if it were the last!

So on this beautiful Tuesday morning there is not a better breakfast than a home made Chocolate Chinch Frape. Filled with a rich chocolate / coffee taste and 24 grams of protein you can’t find a better or faster breakfast!

All you need is:

6 Frozen Coffee Cubes
1 Cup Milk
1 t Coco
2 Scoops of Cafe Latte Cinch Protein
1/2 t Vanilla
3 Scoops of Stevia

Blend everything together in a blender for at least 1 minutes to make sure it is fully blended!

Every week we take our left over coffee and freeze it in ice cube trays. It taste great blended with Cafe Latte Cinch!

I have tried so many different kinds of stevia and this one is my favorite!

I got this reusable Starbucks cup from Brandon and I love it. I use it every day for everything!

Now you can sit back and enjoy! Although if you are anything like me you don’t have time to sit so you can grab it and take it with you wherever life may bring you today!

Thank you from
coming to my 11th

Tuesday Party!!   <center><a href="http://http://bargainblondie.blogspot.com//"><img border="0" src="http://<a href="http://s983.photobucket.com/albums/ae318/heasgirl/?action=view&current=TotallyTastyTuesday.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i983.photobucket.com/albums/ae318/heasgirl/TotallyTastyTuesday.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>"/></a></center>

What is your favorite breakfast?
Do you have a favorite drink or shake?

Oat Meal Cinch

I love Tasty Tuesdays!!! I love trying new things and sharing my ideas with you!

This morning I thought I would change up my breakfast a little bit and mix my Vanilla Cinch with my oatmeal.

The best thing about adding Cinch to my meals would have to be that I eat smaller portions! Even though the portions are smaller, the portions of protein are a lot higher! Leaving me eating less and staying full!  This is an easy and delicious way to change up your breakfast! 

Pour the oatmeal into a bowl.


Add the appropriate amount of water and cook as directed!

Now comes the Cinch!


Add a half a scoop of Cinch and stir it well!


  Pour as much milk and desired!


Stir and enjoy! 

I have also tried this with a few other flavors!  Chocolate being one of them!

Have you tried mixing your Cinch with anything? How was it? I would love to try it!

Or do you have any suggestions on what you might want me to try and post about? 

Strawberry Pineapple Cinch Shake

Happy Tuesday! 

Today is going to be a very Tastie Tuesday!!!

With the weather getting warmer and the days getting longer what could be a better way to start your day than a delicious strawberry pineapple cinch shake?  For the few minutes where I get to sit and enjoy my drink I thinking about  sitting on a beach.

All you need:

2 Scoops of Vanilla Cinch (Click HERE to order)
1/2 cup Pineapple 
5 Frozen strawberries
1 Cup Milk
Sweeteners to taste (if desired)

 

I never get sick of these Cinch Shakes, there are so many ways to blend and mix them.

Have you come up with any Cinch Shakes yourself?

If so I would love to try them, post a link below and I will let you know what I think of it :)

 

Also for everyone that has been waiting to try out Shaklee Cinch Sakes or anything that Shaklee has to offer, now is the time!!!!

Strawberry Oatmeal

 

Oatmeal is one of my favorite breakfast meals, although I always feel as if it doesn’t fill me up enough.  Because breakfast is the most important meal of the day I like to start it off right with a good source of protein. By adding my cinch protein to my oatmeal I get the best of both worlds.

Depending on the time of year you could use frozen of fresh strawberries in your strawberry oatmeal.  Cut the Strawberries into slices.

Put the strawberries in the pan with water and bring it to a boil.

  

Measure out equal parts of oatmeal to equal parts of water!

Cook the oatmeal as directed!

I like to add the cinch pomegranate energy tea for a little boost of energy!

I usually use 1 scoop of the strawberry cinch.

Stir in a little milk till you get the right consistency and ENJOY!!!

My Strawberry Cinch Shake

 

 

I have been doing the Cinch Diet for a few months now and I absolutely love it!!  I have the Cinch Shake for 2 meals out of my day, breakfast and lunch.  Most of the time I am on the go with work so I need something quick, easy and delicious.

On days when I am working, I mix one scoop of the Cinch powder with 8 to 10 oz of whole milk.

Although on my days off I like to change it up a little bit and add the powder to my  home made smoothies. 

 

 

All I need for my delicious strawberry shake is:

• 4 Fresh Strawberries (frozen will work just as well)
• 1/2 Cup of  Ice, about 6 pieces (if Strawberries are Fresh)
• 1 scoop of vanilla cinch
• 1/2 Cup of whole milk
• 1/2 Teaspoon vanilla
• A pinch of stevia (a natural sweetener)

 

Here comes the easy part! Put everything in the blender and blend till smooth.

 

Pour into a glass and enjoy!

 

This is only one of my many Cinch recipes, I have a lot more coming soon!

I hope you enjoy!
