Stand straight, and then draw your breath in as deeply as you’re able. Imagine that you are filling your lungs completely, from the bottom to the top. Hold your breath for a count of three then slowly expel the breath completely. Count to
three then draw a deep breath into your lungs and repeat this process at least three times.

Day 9

Can you believe that this time next week, you will be finished with this round of the Skinny Jeans Cleanse! How are your results so far? I know we’ve heard from some of you that are already seeing results. (Congratulations!!) If you’re not where you want to be though…not to worry! Many people don’t see their biggest changes until after the 14-days is complete.

But, even if you’re already seeing great results…KEEP FOCUSED ON YOUR PROGRAM! Your body goes through a process while cleansing and it’s important to stick with it through the whole program.

Statistics show that most people regain the weight they lose from dieting! This is because people follow diets only until they reach their weight loss target. Then, they go off the diet and regain even more weight than they lost.

Nutritional Cleansing and Replenishing isn’t a diet, it’s a way of life that helps you hold onto all of your cleansing rewards-including weight loss…So, why stop?! Isagenix has a wide-range of customized systems to help you embrace this new lifestyle!

Learn more about Isagenix systems for maintenance or continued weight-loss (such as The Pillars of Health
Maintenance Pak-shown on right).

If you have questions about a good maintenance plan for you (or if you’re interested in losing more than the 7-10lbs that is common with this system), please contact the person that introduced you and they’ll help you to decide how to get your
best possible results!

You’re doing great, so keep up the good work!

Day 8

Let’s start the day by taking your weight and measurements. Write those numbers down in your System Guide. Compare your new numbers to the ones that you started with-do you see a difference? Now, call the person who sponsored you and a few members of your support system and tell them what you’ve accomplished and how great you feel!

Today is a Shake Day and it should be easy–drink two shakes today and eat one sensible meal, along with system-approved snacks.

Here’s a tip: If you found a particular snack helped more than others, stock up for future Shake and Cleanse Days.

If you stopped exercising during your Cleanse Days, you can begin exercising again.

OK, you are now half way through! Keep going-you’re on your way to greater health!

Day 6 – First Cleanse Day   

Helpful hints!

Make sure you drink plenty of water throughout your day, at least half of your body weight in ounces.

During the day, drink more water and eat system-approved snacks if you get hungry. Your System Guide has a list of snacks that are appropriate for Cleanse Days.

Take one Natural Accelerator™ capsule with snacks or water, once or twice daily.

More importantly, believe in your goals and commit to doing your very best. Remember WHY you are doing this. When you signed up for this program you had reasons that made you decide to take this journey.

Follow the system as closely as you can to get the best results. Focus on your success and you’ll be able to complete your first Cleanse Day with ease. Don’t give up! If you’re having a hard time, call a friend, the person who recommended SJC to you, or us and talk it through! You can do it!

To Your Health!
