Best of all the MAWC2014 is here in Miami at the American Airlines Arena starting this Thursday February 6, 2014! How cool is that!? There are thousands of people from all over the world coming to this incredible event. People literally spending thousands of dollars just to get to Miami to make it to this ever so important convention. If there is a short cut to success this is it! The training that you need if you want to be a successful unfranchise owner. Its like if you want to be a doctor you have to go to a lot of years medical school forever! Well if you want to be a successful unfranchise owner you have to go to all the conventions! That's your education! I feel a little guilty because convention is so much fun :) You get 6 months of intensive training in a 3 day all day action packed concert setting but in reality you are really learning I promise. You have the opportunity to see all the new Motives products & massive growth. There is always something new with wellness & anti aging. My favorite is always business building. The energy that is in that arena is indescribable you just have to be there to experience it! ;)

Save your joints!

I keep hearing people everywhere complain about how bad their joints hurt. Just the other day I heard it from someone nearly half my age, the poor girl could barely bend down! 
A mi no me duele nada....Well I'm here to say my joints don't hurt me ;) I have raved before about this product but I feel that this product deserves a lot more testimonials. I have been using the Prime Isotonix joint support since July last year. 
OMG I am so glad that I started it. Last year in April I committed to my rigorous boot camp workout 3 times a week. I began to add more to my workout routine but I noticed that my normal supplementing was just not cutting it anymore. My knees were hurting, my joints were really rusty & my workout recovery was well, lets just say there was no recovery so I began the anti-aging routine. If you are over 30 or you feel you need help with your joints, especially if you want to be more active & you know you can do more if you just didn't have so much joint pain & inflammation.  I have been there, now all I can say is the results are phenomenal No pain Yes gain ;) I workout better now than when I was a teen. Actually I have never in my life have been so active and & I am no spring chicken. So its no secret when people ask me "OMG Annette how do you do it"? I feel a little guilty but its not a secret I tell them I drink my vitamins & joint support the S#it works! The fact that it is in isotonic form makes it a super plus! I drink that s#it in the morning with the Isotonix Prime longevity support on an empty stomach and I am wonder woman immediately! Isotonix absorbs within minutes into your bloodstream like blood sweat or tears. I love it! Now I'm not saying you are going to be wonder woman or super man but I can guarantee your joints will really appreciate it. 
The 3 powerhouse ingredients are in isotonic form so that means they will be absorbed within 5 minutes

1. Glucosamine-Supports healthy joint function and 

promotes the normal production of synovial fluid, 

which lubricates your joints and regenerates cartilage

2. Pycnogenol®-Inhibits the body's over active 

inflammatory processes associated with the normal 

aging process

3. Hyaluronic Acid-Helps maintain strong, healthy 

cartilage and promotes normal healing




I am just so grateful for this product the way I am able to exercise and not complain of any discomfort is priceless! 
Do you have a testimonial? I want to hear about it.

Its time for a real Detox

Ok so I did my "Just say no" campaign but I felt I really needed to kick it up a notch & really do some spring cleaning way before spring. I decided to order some back up to help with the backed up toxic waste. Detoxing is becoming more & more popular because there is more education about how our bodies function and how our bodies really do need it. 
If you think detoxing is not important well then let me give a visual of why you should thoroughly clean out your tubing. Our bodies are like giant garbage cans we eat all our lives in order to function. Most of us eat really bad, even if you eat good you will have some stuff left behind. 
Now you know how you throw out your household garbage daily and even though you have a garbage bag somehow garbage seeps threw the bag and the garbage gets this yukky residue buildup that stinks and is really disgusting ugh. Well that's pretty much what is happening with your body if you don't do a thorough cleanse. You will build up a lot of crap that will eventually turn into extra fat especially around the waist & stomach. It will slow you down & even turn into disease. Yup, most diseases start from the gut. So think about it if you have years of crap that is just sitting there inside of you that becomes toxic. You will notice that you are more tired you cant lose weight because you are literally full of it! Its amazing to me to hear some people don't go every day OMG that's crazy some people are seriously full of it! Sorry I had to get so visual but it is what it is! 
So, I personally hate to be full of it, so I ordered my backup plan which is the NutriClean 7 day detox. I just got it yesterday so I'm starting today. I have done this detox before so I know how well it works. I haven't done it maybe over 2 years & you really should do it 2 times a year so I'm really excited about starting, its like starting with a nice clean slate ;) with the NutriClean 7 day detox I will detox my digestive, liver & colon.  This cleanse has some really great ingredients like

Milk Thistle Seed promotes liver and gallbladder health by providing free radical scavenging activity and support of normal liver cell regeneration.
L-glutamine: helps support overall health maintain normal cholesterol levels, maintain normal blood glucose levels and promote immune health.
Heavy exercise, infection, surgery and trauma can all deplete the body's glutamine reserves, particularly in muscle cells. Because the cells of the intestine use glutamine for fuel, supplemental L-glutamine has been used to promote digestive health
N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) has indicated that it enhances the immune system, detoxifies certain substances, supports a healthy heart and reduces exercise fatigue.

(I really need this,  just last week at bootcamp I felt very sluggish which was really odd then while biking I was riding in slow motion I had no energy!)

Several studies have confirmed that NAC is converted to glutathione in the body. Reviews of these studies show that oral NAC supplementation was successful in enhancing the levels of glutathione in the liver, in plasma and in the bronchioles of the lungs. NAC has also been shown to help reduce levels of fatigue and promote the ability for muscle contraction during exhaustive exercise (possibly due to reduced levels of oxidative stress).
Wow I really need that ;)

Dandelion Root has been shown to support a healthy liver, kidney, gallbladder and joints. 
Garlic Bulb the antibacterial super garlic supports the cardiovascular system, helps maintain normal cholesterol levels it may also help maintain normal triglyceride levels.
Hawthorn Berry Extract contains flavonoids to support the heart, healthy vessels & promotes normal blood flow. Helps maintain normal blood pressure.
Schizandra Chinensis Fruit and Seed Extract increases energy and helps decrease stress-induced fatigue, supports the sex organs, to promote mental function and to beautify the skin. promotes liver and kidney health,
enhances aerobic capacity and energy levels, 
(I really need this, maybe I can finally get that Step aerobic class right!)

promotes normal vision (my vision is getting really bad)
supports mental functioning (I need all the help I can get  with my short term memory loss!). 
supports the immune system, promotes liver health, and helps the body to cope with stress.

Yellow Dock Root helps support a healthy digestive system & healthy bowel movement
Burdock Root supports healthy joints and a healthy digestive system & a healthy liver.      
Barberry Bark and Root. It is an antioxidant. supports normal digestion, healthy liver and gallbladder function.
Rosemary Leaf as an energy booster, promotes head comfort. supports a healthy appetite, liver and gallbladder, and maintain normal blood pressure. may also have antioxidant effects. 
Ginger Root supports healthy gastrointestinal health, bowel movements & cardiovascular system.
Green Tea Leaf Extract  powerful antioxidant to have positive effects on cardiovascular system, potent immune enhancer, energy promoter. Promotes weight loss. Promotes thermogenesis
Hyssop has been used to promote digestive health. 
Red Clover Flower can balance moods, support healthy sleeping patterns, reduce hot flashes, support a normal libido, support heart health and promote the maintenance of bone mass, as well.
Turmeric Root Extract supports general body strength, vision and normal milk secretion. The primary active compounds in turmeric are the flavonoid that deliver potent antioxidant properties. 
Release (1160 mg)  Proprietary Blend work to cleanse the bowel gently, supporting the gastrointestinal tract’s ability to both absorb necessary vitamins and minerals, and eliminate toxins.* 
Scutellaria Root extract beneficial antioxidant and sleep aid value. used for supporting healthy blood pressure. Three bioactive flavonoids - baicalin, baicalein and wogonin - supports the immune system.  
Goldenseal reported to promote normal digestion and urinary tract health.    
Peppermint Leaf can promote normal appetite, liver and gallbladder health, normal digestion and healthy bowel movements.    
Inulin Fiber may promote the growth of favorable bacterial populations, such as bifidobacteria in the colon. may inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria, such as Clostridium perfringens and diarrheogenic strains of Escherichia coli.


OK guys, I tried breaking it down as kindergarten as possible there is tons of more information on this great product on my website. I'm no doctor or know much about science but I do love to read so I learn how to take care of myself. I have never been hospitalized other than having 2 babies. It is rare that I ever get sick. If I do get sick I get better with fluid & rest, I rarely take OTC medication. If I do feel tired or sluggish, I listen to my body, that's why I'm doing this much needed spring cleaning :)  
If you haven't cleaned out your internal garbage can, I mean Really cleaned out your garbage can you should really think about it. Doing a real cleanse to Release those Evil Toxic demons is probably what you need because seriously that's what they are evil toxic demons that cause lots of damage if you don't release them. If you don't get rid of all that crap it builds up to spell a lot of problems, not just looking like the Pillsbury dough boy ugh so get rid of it! 
Its not about being Vain its about being Healthy ;)
Salud!

Just say NO!

Many people are waiting for the New Year to start their healthier eating resolutions. For me I had to seriously start a "Just say No" campaign literary the day after Xmas. These holidays are killing me! It all sort of started in October with Halloween. It was no secret that I really over did it with the chocolate. I ate so much chocolate I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror ugh! But no biggie, I got rid of whatever chocolate was left around by November 3 & did a little extra working out to burn off all that fat sugar & chocolate. Before you know it Thanksgiving was right around the corner and of course I had to start baking. I baked some pecan pies and some sweet potato oatmeal bars. I swear I must have convinced myself that those bars were healthy because I ate the whole tray! Wow! Like if all the turkey and food wasn't bad enough :/ 
So Thanksgiving is over and here comes December. December was just a total disaster! It started in the beginning of the month. First it started with Carlos's daughter coming to visit from Chicago on December 5 & of course Carlos orders a Gyro and some White Castles from Chicago. I have outgrown the White Castle burgers but a Chicago Gyro Hello??? You just cant get a Chicago Gyro in Miami! So, of course I ate half of it. The next day we had a Xmas party and guess what? The next day we had another Xmas Party and then the next day it was Carlos's birthday and of course we had to cut him a cake! After that I thought I would have a break before the Real Xmas but no the following weekend my neighbor just happens to have his 75th birthday bash and guess what? More food lots of food! Then another Xmas party on the 20th, OMG then if that wasn't enough my daughter's 18th birthday was the 21st & if I wouldn't get her a cake she wouldn't talk to me! So we go get another birthday cake just days before Xmas!!! Aye Aye Aye I just wanted to be transported to a deserted island and be left there with just water to survive for at least 3 weeks! I was just so over it! So I said "this is it"! 
On Xmas Eve I said to Semyra my oldest lets do Tropical park bleachers and bike the 20 miles tomorrow, she said lets do it and we did on Xmas day! But seriously exercise was not enough. I said to myself " Annette you got to stop! You need to Just say no! if someone ask you. Do you want cake? say no, if they ask, do you want chocolate? just say no! Do you want to eat? no, no, no, no" All kidding aside if I don't say no I will keep eating & I have to be stronger than that and Just say no! 
But then guess what? Here I am on my 3rd day of Just say no and wouldn't you know it my brother in law comes in to visit from Chicago and they want to get breakfast that turned out to be a big lunch. But I did good :) I got a grilled chicken sandwich only ate half and I didn't eat those fried mariquitas they give you with the sandwich ;)

OK, so I'm not that crazy I knew I couldn't do a total detox when we still have New Years to go, so I have been eating somewhat good the past several days, no sugar or chocolate or any of the other crazy stuff I was over indulging with. I am really looking forward to the end of the year. We do have a couple of parties we have been invited to and Yes I will drink champagne and Yes I will eat but come January 2 2014, its a Total Detox to release those evil toxic demons ugh! And just be normal again ;)
