Obviously this blog is not about me! I am a huge fan of Bethenny Frankel. She has built quite the empire for herself. Not only is she a great business woman, she’s fit, attractive, and wickedly hilarious. I was searching around for some sort of kick start to my new found need to lose weight (this need comes around every few months so, nothing shocking) and I found out that she has a new line of cleanse products! I was thrilled. This is HER brand with HER company name on it (SkinnyGirl). She is also very passionate about being healthy and fit. She started out as a personal chef and is now a reality star, author, and entrepreneur and not to mention new wife and mother. Her books are great. She offers some wonderful and tips and best of all, if you like her wit and charm, her books are written exactly the way she speaks, making them quite amusing!
To my dismay, I realized I was on the US GNC website. The Canadian one is terrible, likely because there isn’t any online ordering so they don’t really showcase many products. I called up my local Brentwood Town Centre GNC and asked if they carried the SkinnyGirl product line. “The what?” the moron on the other end of the phone said. I take that as a no. I wasn’t surprised at all as it’s brand new and obviously would be released in the US exclusively first. So, I called the Bellingham GNC. They thankfully knew what I was talking about but it wouldn’t be hitting their shelves any time soon. I was told it’s in demand (because it’s new) and there are some limitations to getting it in every GNC across America
Now, I was obsessed with getting it. If I can’t have something, I want it even more. Let me take a moment to clarify that I by no means believe this product is going to be the answer to everyone’s weight loss prayers. A cleanse is a cleanse. It can only assist you so much. However, being a huge fan of Bethenny’s and having some confidence in the products she’d choose to put her name on, I was quite intrigued.
So, I took to ordering it online. I ordered a 30 packet set of her Daily Cleanse green lemonade and 120 capsules of Weight Management & Energy pills and had it shipped to my US address in Blaine
This, combined with a new meal plan, some exercise (yoga, seawall rollerblading, walks) incorporated and some infrared sauna time here and there should hopefully make a difference. I am doing this as a 40 day “challenge” and am hoping to report some successful weight loss after the 40 days have passed. If I don’t lose any weight, don’t expect to hear back from me! Haha JUST KIDDING!
But seriously, now I need to be accountable so… hopefully as I board my plane for my California trip May 22 I’ll be traveling a bit lighter ;)
So, stay tuned for my next post about the miracle known as the SkinnyGirl cleanse line…or not!?
