So today I'm on the USANA 5 Day Reset Day Five, I woke up ready to finish strong. I have to say I've done my share of programs that are supposed to "cleanse" you that were much worse than this.  I think it had a lot to do with the fact that I never experienced hunger with the USANA Reset Kit.  And honestly by the end of the Reset, I don't crave fast food or sweets.  This coming from a girl that used to have a Reese's every night before bed.  (I know, they add up quick)
I headed off to the scale to see if I was going to have any more weight loss.  Even if it was a few ounces, I'd take it.  I wanted to have a strong number just to prove to myself that I could do this program & it was not a waste of time or money.  So at the beginning of my plan I was 198.4 and at final weigh in of the USANA 5 Day Reset I weighed 194.2.  I lost a total of 4.2 Pounds and feel really good.  I also went down some percentage points in my BMI so I am happy with the product. 

I've decided to continue with USANA and move on to Phase 2.  But for those of you still on the fence about trying it, I want to give you some things to keep in mind: 

• USANA Reset Kit is designed to help you jump start into healthy eating and make a break from high glycemic foods.  
• Think of this program as a method for your body to reset itself so you don't experience the cravings for high carb, high sugar foods. 
• Don't try to do this process on your own.  Make sure that you have the help of a USANA Associate who can give you precise instructions for your body type. 
• Make sure you are always prepared.  You are going to be consuming USANA Foods, fruits and vegetables several times a day.  If you are prepared for your day, you are unlikely to cheat or make unhealthy choices. 
• Talk about your doctor if you are under care for any medical condition.  It's important that they know about your wellness goals and how you plan to reach them. 
• Have a continuation plan for afterward.  I know it might be tempting to come off of the USANA Reset and go back to old habits.  Instead, keep the momentum going!  And if you plan on continuing with USANA, have your next order placed by Day Three of your Reset. 

Bottom line is I can't be happier that I took the Reset Challenge.  It proved that it was a program I could follow and it works!  Like everything else that's worth anything, it requires energy and work & I'm willing to do it.  So what are you waiting for?  You've read usana review after usana review & sooner or later you'll have to decide whether you are willing to take the chance in order to make change in your life.  I did and I'm seeing it in results and you certainly can too! 

After preparing for the Reset Challenge I was about to embark on, I woke up ready to get it started.  I have reached a point where I can't stand one more day of not taking action and doing something about my weight.  And I am hoping that USANA 5 Day Reset is the jump start I need to get my weight loss off the ground.

Usana 5 Day Reset Start

Day One of the USANA 5 Day Reset was Wednesday. I weighed myself and took measurements upon rising to establish my benchmark.  I drank 16ounces of water before my morning shake waited an hour and mixed up the Nutrimeal Strawberry Shake Packet.  I mixed 12ounces of water and a few ice cubes in a blender for about 30 seconds(I only use the shaker cups in a pinch).  Like everyone else, I have heard a lot about of the taste of the shakes & I'm sure we all have horror stories about the taste of different brands of meal replacements.  Frankly I don't think you'll ever hear anyone say "Hey I have a taste for a protein shake!"  But whatever the taste, I am willing to suck it up to lose weight.  I personally didn't think it was bad.  I mean I have had protein shakes that were worse.  But the taste was not offensive.  The strawberry flavor is very light and the shake was thick and creamy which I loved. I think when I get into the next phase I'll add frozen strawberries instead of ice to make the flavor stronger. I also took the HealthPak Supplements with my morning shake.

From there I was consuming something every two hours.  After the shake I had a serving of fruit and after that a Bar. At lunch I had the Vanilla Nutrimeal Shake which was fine too.  I was beginning to experience a slight headache but it was nothing I couldn't handle.  Early afternoon came and I had a one cup serving of stir fry vegetables.  I had that and was still hungry so I had another cup.  Remember you can have extra vegetables if needed.  As I prepared dinner for my family, I had the Peanut Butter Bar.  I wasn't a fan of it because it seemed to have a weird after taste to me.  I ate it anyway and kept moving.  I had my final evening shake, Nutrimeal Chocolate and the final HealthPak Supplements at around 8pm.  Through the day I had 8ounces of water before my meals.

5 Day Reset Day One Summary

It should be noted that I was only hungry in the early afternoon and another cup of vegetables took care of it. The headache did stay with me all day but it was okay.  I ended the day calling it a victory.  I just couldn't understand how people were reporting almost 5lb weight loss in one day.  It didn't seem possible so I was looking forward to weighing in first thing the next morning.

Lights out, on to Usana 5 Day Reset Kit Day Two!
