I am first going to establish a baseline for comparison: I have ADD and for that I take Concerta. I also take B12, Super B-complex, biotin, ginseng, Chromium Picolinate and a multivitamin daily, and then, once a week, 50K IUs vitamin D - on perscription. Since the XM3 has B6, Chromium, and a natural energy blend from the Moringa, I'm dropping the Concerta, B-complex, and ginseng. I'm also reducing my coffee intake from 3 8oz cups a day to about 6oz in the morning and will take the pill around 2pm. The Smart Mix is to be used first thing in the AM and tea before bed.
I try to work out at least 3 days a week, but the way my work schedule has been going, I haven't been able to do that. I'm pretty tired most of the time, and even with the Concerta, I have trouble focusing and remembering.
I am hoping for more energy, some weight loss, overall improvement in health and concentration levels. I know that's a lot to hope for in just 8 days, but we'll see.
A funny thing happened this morning, (not funny haha, funny strange). I awoke bloated because I ate too late at night. Usually, my solution to that is lots of water and coffee to flush my system and about 6 hours later, I feel better. However, this morning, as soon as I woke up, I went to the restroom, did my business and weighed for this report. I weighed 156.6. I drank the Smart Mix with 8ozs water, (per instructions) and started geting ready for work. Less than an hour later, I had to GO! After the restroom visit, I realized my bloating was gone! I got on the scale and got a surprise; 155.6! Was that the Smart Mix? Coincidence? Hmm. Time will tell.
Tomorrow I will post my results from today.
