MonaVie Journal

Monday, June 8
First day on MonaVie. I had 2 oz. in the morning with my daughter. She and I both thought it was disgusting! It had a bad smell and a horrible after taste.
BUT, I had another 2 oz. at 5 pm to help with my sugar cravings. This one tasted better. It still had a slight smell, but I didn't mind the taste.
I felt good today. We'll see how the energy levels are tomorrow.

I was tired this afternoon so I took an extra 1 oz. My eyes were tired and sore, maybe from allergies, but my body felt good. I had little sleep last night. I slept soundly when I went to bed, but I didn't have enough hours of sleep. Hectic day: meetings after school, driving to swim club, shopping for sandals, etc. I also don't notice the smell or the after taste as much. It is growing on me!

No visible difference in energy.

Thursday, June 11
Today is day four of being on MonaVie. I truly can't say that I have felt "amazingly different" until today. Today I truly can see an increased energy level.
It started at 4 am. Telise woke up and couldn't fall back to sleep, so she came into my room to ask me to help her out. I often talk her back to sleep and give her relaxation techniques. So, I helped her relax, and then I tried to fall back to sleep myself. No such luck. At 5 am I give up, get up, go for a 7.5 K run, get a few bills paid on-line and get ready for work.
I have been going non-stop since then and I feel great! I'm not feeling overly tired, although I should, and I managed a day filled with teaching, reading assessment, two students who vomited in class, a sick daughter that I had to bring home at lunch, chauffering to swim club for the other daughter, dinner, helping with homework, etc. I hope this keeps up!
