Day 3 & 4 of my Isagenix cleanse !!


I just completed my 3rd and 4th day on my Isagenix cleanse. I started at 114lbs and I did get down to 110.4lbs yesterday but then went out for dinner ( oops ) and even though I ate very little, the scale this morning says 111.6lbs. STILL- 3lbs less in 4 days and Im only trying to lose about 5-7lbs tops so it was ok for me.

Day 3 
I woke up and made my juice cleanse.
9am-I mixed a handful of ice cubes with 8oz of water, added my 2 scoops of cleanse for life ( I got the power form instead of the juice form because the juice needs to be refrigerated) and then I put it all in my magic bullet blender and drank right out of the cup. Isagenix also sells a great blender so if you need one I recommend one of the 2 for sure; they are so easy! Also took my accelerator pill


























Isagenix Snacks



11am- I set my alarm to remind me to eat a snack 2 hours later. I try my best to stay on schedule. I also drank 1 bottle of water

1pm- Juice number 2.  

130pm- I had 2 of the IsaDelight plus chocolates that Isagenix says you can have 30 min before your Isagenix snacks- so I took this opportunity to indulge lol.
-- The IsaDelights are  filled with amino acids and can help curb your cravings. They come in both dark and milk chocolate.


2pm- I had 2 isagenix snacks and a full bottle of water.

4pm- 3rd Juice and took an accelerator pill

530pm- 2 more IsaDelights Chocolates

6pm- 2 snacks and a full glass of water

8pm- 4th and last juice for the day!

Its important to keep yourself busy. After this juice day I went back to Isagenix and ordered a bunch of their approved snacks for the shake day. Im not gonna lie, I so badly wanted to eat on the juice day, I got hungry quite a few times during the day and was so tempted. I read just now that you can have a few small slices of apple or pear- which would have helped a lot. The only thing that motivated me ws actually seeing a difference.

Here are my measurements on day 3:

Height- 5'6"
Weight- 111.2lbs

Neck- 11.7"
Upper Arm (L)- 9.2"
Upper Arm (R)-9.2"
Bust- 31"
Diaphragm (Rib Cage)- 25.5"
Waist- 23.5"
Abdomen- 30.5"
Buttocks- 34.5"
Upper Thigh (L)- 18.5"
Upper Thigh (R)- 18.5"
Calf (L&R)- 12.5"
Upper Knee (L&R)- 13.5"
Total inches- 264.5
Inches lost since start- 7.8"

Heres what I started with

Day 3
Im super happy with the results I'm seeing so far. Even my skin is looking better. I still have 6 days left on my actual cleanse because the first 2 shake days were only prep days. But even still, in those first 2 shake days I saw a difference and lost weight.

Day 4-
So day 3 was good for me, I stayed home, I painted, I worked in my office ran to the post office... nothing strenuous. Well, day 4 I had planned on seeing my trainer. I was feeling good, looking good and excited to get into the gym. BIG MISTAKE! I was trying to lift and squat and do all the normal exercises I do every week, but I just had no energy. My ears kept getting clogged, my legs were shaking.. I normally for 3 sets per exercise and after the first round I was pretty much giving up. I should have just went and did a bunch of cardio. I told my trainer Lauren Kern that I think Im going to end my session early today; she couldn't even believe it. Instead of quitting she lowered all my weights and made me finish. Im happy I did but I just wanted to say how I felt working out hard on my cleanse day because someone had asked me for my opinion.

After the gym I had to run some errands and got pretty tied up. By the time I got home I was starving so I cheated and ate 1 tofu chicken patty.. It was my own fault for doing to much and not staying on schedule.  Anway, 30 minuted after that I picked back up with my juice and carried on.... Until my husband came home and wanted to go for dinner... Which I did. I had 4 pieces of salmon sashimi and some brown rice. But I still have 6 days left and am doing so good already so I allowed myself to go, but I wasn't happy about it...

Day 5- Back to business 
















Today I'm back on to my shake day and Im super excited. This is something I see myself doing even when Im not cleansing hardcore. I really enjoy the shakes and believe its detoxing my body and helping me lose weight. I got my husband to finally try the shakes and he couldn't believe how good it was. He told me he felt really "clean" and energized and the shake filled him up enough that he didn't want or need to eat anything else; and for my husband thats a really good sign.
I did have a training session booked for today but I decided to cancel and try Pilates for the first time with my friend Paula. Im hoping it will be a lot easier than lifting was yesterday.
Its currently 830am here in california and I am going to drink a glass of water now and then at 9am have my first shake!!!
Im super excited because today my 2nd order from Isagenix should arrive. I went back and ordered a bunch more of their products which Ill list below. I should have just got the presidents pak and split it with my husband, then we would have had all the goodies and saved money. Note for next time!

For those of you who are just reading this and contemplating ordering this product, make sure that you sign up so you can purchase at wholesale prices. Signing up means that if you tell your friends and they want the product too, you give them your link that is automatically made with your name after you sign up, and then you make money off of their order. And if they sign up as well , they can purchase at wholesale prices, tell their friends and make money too. 
Just because you sign up does not mean you have to get autoship. You pay either $29 or $39 for the year and thats it. If you want products shipped automatically every month then select autoship and save an extra 10%, but if you don't there is that option as well. Wholesale prices are about $100 less than retail, and you have the ability just by sharing your success story to others, to turn it into a business. We can all be on a team together helping each other out.
Isagenix does not spend money on advertising, that is why they are not sold in stores. It has grown the way it has strictly because of word of mouth. And because it doesn't advertise it spends more money on making its products phenomenal.  Its a win win situation. I do not blog about anything that I do not personally believe in. I do not get paid and I am not endorsed by any of these products- I am sharing them and my story and experience because I believe in this product and want you to look and feel your best well; plain and simple.

Heres how to Purchase

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

 I clicked the one with the arrow. I did not want auto ship because I ordered so much to start out with. The associate account lets you have a website that looks just like mine with your name and everything. By clicking sign up and save you automatically join my team.

If you have any questions you can email me at Jenniferstano@gmail.com or call / email my cousin Jeanine at  631-624-1322    jeaninecozzetti@yahoo.com

I joined my cousins team and she works with Isagenix full time and can answer any questions you have about this product. Jeanine and I have also been doing conference calls with girls and Jeanines friend Lisa who also works with Isagenix.

We hope to hear from you soon.
Have Faith Swimgerie photoshoot with my babies.

If you believe in yourself, anything is possible.

    1. OMG girl- I am addicted to pilates. I bought myself the month unlimited- thats how much I loved it.
      As for my skin, Just everything looks amazing. Since starting it I haven't had one break out, and the tone and texture of my skin looks amazing. The "cellulite" under my skin is gone. I am just so excited with the results. I still need to complete the next 5 days but its amazing the difference i see so far.
      Its truly cleanses you on a cellular level.

  4. Hey Jen,

    Just curious what your regular workouts look like. (like weights 3 x a week and cardio 2x) or do u do it all in the same days? I know what you mean its impossible to lift heavy when you just dont have the energy, even if I skip a meal or eat junk my ability is affected.

    I am shocked at how many inches you have lost. Weight wise im not suprised but the inches show that its actually making a difference. I really dont think you need this though. I guess each of us is always more judgemental on ourselves. But I love your body, it has really inspired me to lift more weights as right now Im just thin and was doing alot of HIIT. But now I am striving for an ass like yours! LOL.
    Thanks for your posts!

    1. Squats girl, LOTS of Squats. Ill post what my trainer makes me do for my booty lately. Also, I just started pilates and I have to say I never felt a burn like that throughout my entire body especially my booty. I would totally give it a try!! I am addicted.

      My workouts have been lately 3x a week- not enough cardio :( I have been traveling soooo much and then I got really sick but now with pilates in the mix Ill be working out 5 days a week. Summer is coming and I want to feel super confident this year!

  7. Hi Jen! Thank you so much for sharing your isagenix experience with everyone. So my husband and I both want to loose weight 15-20 llbs and wanted to do the 30 day cleanse. Which package would you recommend? Would the presidents pack suffice for the both of us for the 30 days? Also, which flavors do you recommend? And also thinking of purchasing additional snacks, which do you recommend that taste the best. Again, thank you in advance for your time in answering my questions. :-)

    1. Hey Samia. The presidents pak would deff be the best for you and your husband. At this point I spent way more money ordering all the extras. For my husband, I ordered him the 30 day and got him half chocolate half vanilla. I tried both and love both. My aunt is also on the 30 day and she mixed one scoop vanilla an done stop chocolate!!! I think its good to get half and half so you don't get bored!!
      OMG for snacks, I just got yesterday the Isalean bars in chocolate peanut- OMG its amazing. I didn't try the soup or other bars yet but I will soon :)
      I also got their vitamins, the woman's one... everything is listed above.
      Email me if you need any help

  8. Wow you are doing great so far! Losing so much in a week is awesome! :) I'm on weight watchers atm, and so far I have lost 36lbs..still got another 24lbs to lose, but it's a lovely feeling getting on the scales and seeing its gone down!!! :D Its hard going because i started off at like 200lbs so getting back into exercise and changing my eating habits is really hard, but I like looking at your blog and pics, because I wanna be able to have a nice body and wear anything i want eventually, so they are inspirational :) good luck with the rest of your cleanse!!! x

  9. Hey Sarnia........this is Jeanine, Jens cousin. My husband and I are on our 12th day of the 30 day cleanse. I have lost 10lbs and over 15 inches all around and my husband lost 17lbs. It's amazing! We feel so good and can't believe the results bc we feel so healthy and not hungry either.
    Totally go with the Presidents pak....that's what we did. It has all the goodies like Jen said. You will absolutely LOVE how you look and feel. Def get it bc you will be soooooooooooo impressed with how fast you lose weight! And I have 3 kids and I am 10lbs away from pre-pregnancy weight. Like Jen said, if you need any help you can email her or me if you have any questions too :) xoxoxo

  12. Hey Jen! I was wondering, what is your calorie intake on shake and juice days? How many calories are in the shake?

    I'm going to browse the site for a few days and probably make an order through you!

  13. Jennifer! I must say you are a true inspiration to girls EVERYWHERE! And, you are blowing up, everyone that follows you LOVES YOU. I am surpirsed you don't have your own show yet because ur gorgeous and a sweet girl. As far as the isagenix, i really want to try it! I've gained about 10-15 lbs this year because of some depressing situations and i feel that i read your blog for a reason. You have motivated me to get back in to shape and get back to the real me :) Thank you. Do you know if Isagenix has any caffeine? My body doesnt tolerate any caffeine. Thanks for your advice. You and Alki are amazing <3

  14. Jennifer you look amazing in this picture you posted. You always look amazing! I really wish I could just stay motivated. I went on a diet for my 30th b-day and then I lost 8 pds, then the holidays hit me.. and I gained 4-5 back :( So Now I cant seem to get back on track. Of course life is super hectic right now as well. So I havent been eating well. Id love to lose 10 pds by June. If I lost 15 that would be my goal.
    I always feel super hungry though, whenever I do a liquid diet.
    What would be a good way to cure the hungry feeling? After drinking a shake for breakfast and lunch.

  19. You can go on a hard diet with almost no food because you've got fake boobs. Me under 56 kg(i'm 1,64 m) have like no boobs so I prefer to have more fat in some places than no boobs;)) kisses!

    Hi Jennifer - thank you so much for posting your detailed experience on this. I am starting my 9 day cleanse in a couple of day (wish me luck) but i had a question.... 1. do you think i can still drink fresh juice such as carrot, kale, wheatgrass, etc. 2. Can you give me more suggestions on what to eat for the 300-600 calorie meals?

    Thx
    Veronica :)

  30. Hi Jen:

    Congrats to you and your Hubby on your Baby Boy!!
    I been following your blog for sometime now and i find it so helpful in many ways on many of your subjects!!! Thank you i must say!!
    My question is on the Isagenix Im lookin to lose anywhere from 10 to 15 lbs, as many of us do, we gain weight during the Holiday season and I am one of those victims LOL. One of your post were about you working out 5 days a week and not losing anything, well i am having that very same problem, i workout 5 days a week, boxing, running, spinning, eliptical, some days 2x a day and i also have a clean diet, and now even cut out all diary from my diet hoping to see some weight drop, I weigh 120 and 5'5 but I always weighed btw 110 and 115 . I just hit the 30 yr old mark and I keep thinking that could be it because they say, as soon as you hit that mark it gets harder, and i have never had a problem dropping wieght but i also have always been slim as well and workout for many years, I too was a swim suit competitor in the NPC 2 yrs ago and took 2nd Place first timei went on stage!!!! Anyway, sorry to babble on, but would you recommend the 9 day cleanse or 30 day!!! I just need a jump start and if this works as you say it does and drops 10 lbs instantly Im all for it!!!
