My Thrive Experience

My name is Michelle Hughes and this is my Thrive Experience.

In June I had decided that I was going to change my life for the better some way, somehow.  I decided to try three different product lines with Thrive being the last one I tried.  I was so unhappy with myself in so many ways.  I had totally forgotten who I was.  I knew I had to begin to make better choices in my life and I needed help in doing that.  I was having a hard time getting out of bed most days.  I was sleeping my life away.  I was having such discomfort and stress I just could not get up and live.  When I was up I was not doing anything very productive and my son was always commenting that all I did was sleep and lay around.  I was barely functioning in my life.  I was at the biggest weight I had ever been and I could not find the energy to get up and get moving.  I was making some horrible eating and drinking choices and I knew if something did not change in my life I would end up just like my dad.  My dad ate and did what he wanted to for many years and partly because of those decisions he was lying in a hospital bed most of this year so far and I had seen his health deteriorate over the last three years after his heart attack in 2011.  I did not and do not want to end up that way.  I have a son who is almost 15 and I knew I wanted to watch him grow up and have a family of his own someday.  I knew that I had way too many things left to do in this life including spend my life with my boyfriend who has been a supportive blessing to me over this last year.    

I got my trial pack in the mail from my friend and now upline Donna Marcotte.  I noticed the energy after a few hours.  I was feeling an extra pep in my step.  I was not as hungry and when I ate I was already making better choices.  I decided after my trial was complete that I was ready to sign up and purchase my Thrive Experience.  Well life kicked me a little when my dad took a turn for the worse.  I am in Texas and he lived in Vegas so I took off to spend 8 days visiting him at the hospital for what I thought were his last days.  My Thrive was put on hold.  I will say that the entire time I was there and my mom (who went with me for mental support) and I would walk around on the strip during our down time not at the hospital and I would keep telling her that I needed my Thrive.  I had no energy.  I was suffering all those discomforts at heightened levels from the mental and physical stress on my body.  I was continuing to make bad choices with food and drinking all those sodas.  I would get back to our room early because I just could not do anything else because I was exhausted and wake up each morning with discomfort and forcing myself to get ready to go. 

Well we flew back home and soon after that when my finances were back in line I ordered my Thrive and I was so excited.  I haunted the website for the company delivering my Thrive.  It only took two days but I was so ready to get this product back.  It arrived on a Friday so I started back up on that Saturday.  My boyfriend and I made a three hour trip back to his hometown to see his family and his kids.  I had not slept much but I was keeping him awake on the ride there.  I was dancing and singing in the car and I felt great.  I have been thriving ever since. 

This product has really changed my life in the 5 weeks I have been using it.  My energy has been so amazing and I feel more like myself than I have felt in a long time.  I am losing weight and even better than that is that I do not drink sodas anymore and I do not reach for sweets and bad foods like I used to.  I am making better choices in my life.  My boyfriend is now thriving with me and together we are both doing great.  We bring home leftovers when we go out to eat.  We do not even buy those unhealthy snacks anymore. 

Thrive has helped improve my mood and control my stress so much.  I used to really struggle with this and that was party of why I could not get out of bed sometimes.  Just this past week I was really having a rough time with some personal issues and then I got the news that my dad had passed away last Sunday.  I knew it was coming but the fact that I was not able to be there and the finality of it along with all of the other personal issues I had been going through made it hard for me.  Well I crawled up in my bed and pulled the covers over my head which was a typical way of my handling stressful situations such as this and after a few minutes I had to get up.  My body just would not let me do what I call “wallow in my own self-pity”.  I had to get up out of that bed and get moving.  I was still sad of course that my dad had passed but I was able to handle it differently than I normally would have. 

I am making better choices in my life physically and mentally and on top of that I am able to earn a great residual income and work with some amazing people with this amazing company and I am so thankful for that every day.  I know that my dad is probably looking down on me and smiling that I have made the decision to change my life for myself and for my son.  I have Thrive to thank for that and I am so grateful to this company and to Donna Marcotte for introducing me to this experience and opportunity as well as to my boyfriend, son and family and friends who are so supportive of me every day.  I got my thrive on and I do not intend to go without it EVER!
