I caved last night . At Red, White, and Boom in Rock Hill I had a hamburger. I’ve been doing so well for almost 2 weeks. Honestly - that place was so freaking packed I was done for the night lol. Luckily it was a small burger. So this morning Gary made a Superfood Breakfast Burrito. Not bad, but I had to add some guac and cilantro into mine. Happy 4th of July everybody!!!

So like I said my journey to getting healthy started with this set right here. These are suggestions on how to use things but you can use them for so much more. Lemon Vitality was and will always be my go to for water. It also comes with two samples of Ningxia Red, which is the best way to reach your full potential, get extra energy, and just feel better without having all that added mess in your body. Also the thieves cleaner, which can clean anything of your counters, stove, fridge, floors, etc. and it leaves your house smelling amazing too. Did I also mention it comes with a diffuser? A beautiful pretty big diffuser for you to put your oils in and have your house smelling amazing. Mine makes my living room smell like a field of lavender, lemon trees, candy canes (if I’m using peppermint), and at the end of the day put stress away into it......y’all. It’s just amazing! The cost is $160, but this is well over $300 in stuff. I should know I’ve been restocking (little by little). The diffuser alone is $80 (but you get two free oils with it). And like I’ve said before or you do not have to sign up for Young living to sell it. These oil’s are for your personal use. If you decide to sell him that’s you. So get started today and you will thank me later!

Lunchtime today. All vegan! Surprisingly tasty too! Added some lemon and lime vitality oils to the water, which are always my go to oils! Two drops is all you need. I also like to add one drop of peppermint vitality, but I’m out 😭😭😭. Did you know that one drop of Peppermint essential oil from Young Living is the equivalent to 26 cups of peppermint tea?! That’s how natural these products are!

Went to the doctor today for annual checkup. Weighed in at 172!!!!! Y’all. This is a good thing. We talked about my diet and my oils because oils helped me start this journey duh, and she agreed with everything I’ve been doing. Once you cut out the processed foods and eat either as close to plant base or complete plant based you will be amazed how much more pleasant your body will be! And with the Young Living Vitality line it’s easy to make a detox water on the go or for whatever you need!
On another note there was a patient in my office who I see every time. Mom was shocked looking at me and told me she could tell there’s been a weight loss change. I started off with Young Living Essential Oils before I changed my diet mind you. I think enough Stress Away and Peace and Calming helped my hangry moods 😂

Here’s my story. 4 aunts: breast cancer. Mom: breast cancer. Sister: breast cancer. Dad’s side: heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer. So what can I do to not be a statistic? I have three kids - 15, almost 12 and 3. I want to be here for all their milestones. I want to be able to keep up with them! So I looked at my diet: I’m eating everything in sight (Taco Bell is my weakness-them $5 boxes will get you every time!). All processed crap! Chicken, fish, steak and pork (full of hormones!). I’m 185 pounds......I was 195 when Lana was born (I’ve never been that heavy!!!). Did you know that cancer is mostly environmental?! Not hereditary like we all thought! So this page is dedicated to my mission to be healthier, and to also live cleaner and chemical free thanks to Young Living Essential Oils. Invite your friends to like this page too, you may learn something you didn’t know before!
