Feeling better than ever, Kai decided to train for a 5K. Although she thought it would never happen, Kai had set a<br />

goal to one day run a race at Disney World® after seeing a group of runners with their finisher’s medals during a family<br />

vacation in 2010. Six years later, she proudly received her own medal after completing a half marathon and a 10K within<br />

two days, and plans to run another Disney World® race which includes a 5K, 10K, half and full marathon, within four<br />

consecutive days next year.<br />

Joey waited a year to work out, but once he started, he discovered a love for obstacle course races because they<br />

reminded him of the 13 years he served in the military. After convincing Kai to join him, the energized couple started<br />

competing in various races together.<br />

“I found out you don’t have to go crazy with exercise,” Joey says. “All you have to do is become more active. I parked<br />

farther away or worked out in the yard to stay active.”<br />

"We would get stressed out and turn to food," says Joey. "We still get stressed<br />

out today, but if we do turn to food, it's celery or something healthy."<br />

HOW THEY<br />

DID IT<br />

- Replaced sugary soda and sweet tea with Rehydrate, Spark and water<br />

- Followed the Daily Guide for every meal, adding in healthy snacks to avoid stress eating<br />

- Kai began jogging on day one; Joey parked further away and took the stairs on a daily basis<br />

It’s been over two years, and Kai is down over 200 pounds and Joey has lost 135 pounds. Now that they’ve both blown<br />

past their goal weights, they’re focused on building lean muscle and making the most of their newfound lifestyles as<br />

Kai trains for her first full marathon, and Joey looks to complete three obstacle races spanning more than 26 miles in<br />

a year. Aside from her fitness goals, Kai is also proud of the everyday accomplishments she’s achieved throughout this<br />

life-changing transformation.<br />

“I can hold my son on my hips or my lap,” she gushes. “Every time I hold him it’s another reminder of how far I’ve come.”<br />

The results achieved were a result of a consistent low-calorie diet and regular daily exercise over a 2 to 3 year period of time. Personal<br />

testimonials reflect individual experiences of AdvoCare Independent Distributors and are not typical of the results you may obtain.<br />

Weight loss varies with individual effort, body composition, eating patterns and exercise. If you have a medical condition or are<br />

pregnant or nursing, AdvoCare recommends that you consult with your healthcare professional before starting an AdvoCare product<br />
