Exceeding her Goal
At 230 pounds, seeing a number less than 200 on the scale seemed like a daunting task for
Ashley Hopkins. But as she began to see success, she was determined to meet and exceed that
goal.
The hairdresser and mom of four was taking boot camp classes to shed unwanted baby weight
when she was introduced to Spark®. “I couldn’t get through boot camp before. After drinking
Spark, I had energy to get through the class,” she says.*

But it wasn’t just the difference in her workout that had Ashley wanting more. “When I went
home I didn’t fall on the couch and say, ‘I’m done for the day.’ I felt really good,” she explains.

DID IT
50 pounds 9 months
September 2013 –
May 2014
- Quit eating fast food and gas station snacks and
cooks so her family has healthy options
- Replaced soda and juice with Spark and water
- Started being active four to five days a week
She met and far exceeded her 31-pound goal by changing her eating habits, exercising regularly
and consistently taking AdvoCare products. “I used to eat out at least four times a week and
drank sugary drinks. Now, I drink water and Spark, and I save calories and money by cooking my
own meals.”
Ashley works out five times a week at the gym and uses the AdvoCare CU24 Workout Series.
Since losing the weight and becoming more active, her days look a bit different. “I can do lawn
work, and it used to take two days to clean my house. Now I get it done in half a day,” Ashley
admits.
Through her AdvoCare journey, Ashley values her health, and her children are being impacted,
too. “I watched my dad and grandma’s health decline, so I’m doing everything in my power to
show my kids how to make healthier choices. You can tell them all day long, but if you’re not
doing it, they’re likely not going to model the behavior,” she says. “Taking care of yourself is one
of the best things you can do for your family.”
