End of Exercise

Dennise P. was feeling depressed and lacked energy to play with her son. She had heard about CIZE from a colleague, but put off ordering it. Finally, her birthday rolled around, and she asked her husband for CIZE. He obliged, and she had great results! After doing CIZE for 6 weeks (adding in 21 Day Fix for the last two weeks), she lost 20 pounds! Check out her story in her own words right here:
I was depressed, had no energy, and my 3-year-old was suffering because mommy was too tired to play. I was always grumpy with my husband and things were just going downhill for us.
On the first day, I had a little frustration. It was difficult to keep up. I took more than 5 breaks on the first and second days. On my third and fourth days, I was doing much better. Now I love it… I always feel great, full of energy and if I ever feel down, I just dance my emotions away. Best cure ever!
My favorite workout is Full Out! That’s a beast! I love Chandelier, but I’m really slow at it, and hoping to get better soon! I like that I never get sore. I sweat like a pig, but I don’t get sore and that is extremely important for me. I can do CIZE every day of the week and still feel amazing. That is very good for me because I’m a massage therapist and the main reason I never wanted to do exercise was because I was avoiding to get more sore or injure myself and not be able to work.
My favorite thing about Shaun T is his voice talking to me. It is like he has all the patience in the world, and he is just waiting for me to get it. He sings his instructions and makes everything so smooth. Before starting CIZE, my dance skills were really bad! After completing CIZE, my dance skills are good!
I used CIZE for the first 30 days, and a hybrid of CIZE & 21 Day Fix for two more weeks. I lost 6 pounds in my first week, and my husband was so impressed with my results and my mood change that he ordered his own challenge pack. Now we are both coaches and on our way to being fit and healthy again. I have lost 20 pounds in less than 60 days, and I still have 50 more pounds to go! I can’t wait to see my final results!


Chili Lime Salmon

Ever since my sister worked a summer in Alaska and sent boxes of fresh Salmon home, I can't get enough! I could eat it everyday! This is one of my favorite ways to make it and it is so simple!

Chile Lime Salmon
4 salmon fillets
2 limes
2 tps. chili garlic paste
salt and pepper

Directions:
squeeze the limes and add the chili paste and mix. Coat the fillets and let marinate for 1/2 hour.
Grill chicken, or pan sear it. time varies depending on thickness of fillets. You can see when the fish becomes a lighter pink its done.I like to let the outside get crispy. I use coconut oil spray to keep it from sticking.
