After The Video

If you are serious about getting healthier, stronger, and taking control of your life. Now is the time to take The Challenge. 

Obesity is a growing Epidemic. To change for a healthier lifestyle, small changes take time to equal success. Starting with how you eat, and what you drink. 

First, do you drink Soda? I did. Don't be ashamed. However, I started with switching out one Soda with one water a day. Each week I switched out another Soda with Water. After 90 Days, I'm complete Water. 

As well through this process replaced 2 meals a day with Vi-Shape. 2 meals replaced and I started dropping weight and inches. Not able to exercise, due to health reasons, and the weight just came right off. It was so simple and easy! 

My question to you is. Why not take the 90 Day Challenge, and with their Money Back Guarantee. DO IT! I did and I'm 35 pounds down and 8" off my waist. 

Now I'm on my Second  90 Day Challenge, and I'm ready to show everyone. Follow my video and contact me questions, desire to start, details...

Reflection

As Christmas passes by, many stressors on my mind. Only one thing that I can reflect upon to make that stress less. My children. 

My 20 yr old son is leaving tomorrow. Moving to Pittsburgh for several good reasons. All positive. However, hard as it is to watch, I know it is all meant to be for him. I'm proud of him. Yet, I cry. Knowing this child took 25 1/2 hours to get into this world, and grew up right in front of me so quickly. Reflecton is key to motivation. 

My family has taken in my daughters best friend. Mother kicked her out. As a Nurse, I couldn't and wouldn't watch this happen. 17 yrs old, and the child only asks to be loved. She's a good kid, works, and is being shown how to save, communicate, and enjoy a family life. I've been reflecting back on when I met this child. Shy, and very insecure. Now? She is glowing, smiling all the time, and she knows that she will see "I love you, have a good day" every morning. As well as, every night she hears "I love you, sleep well." Teenagers are just that. Rough time, but you never throw your child out. Love your kids. Tell them how much they are loved. It's not always about what you buy them, do for them. It's about what you say to them and mean. Show love in hugs, and teaching them to speak respectable. She is a highlight to my life. 

Looking at my daughter over Christmas. Thinking back to when she was born. How I held her to my chest and promised her that I will not ever let anyone hurt her or harm her. Not thinking then that you can't be by their side all the time. I failed my child the day she was in a car accident. What I do know, that she doesn't believe. She's strong on the outside and begging for help on the inside. I love my daughter and she is my ultimate world. She has this laugh that is contagious, and tears as big as crockidiles. Only time will heal, and her faith in God is much stronger than mine. She will prevail, and even though I may feel helpless at times? I'm not. Simple talking, and listening are key. 

My youngest son. Oh my! The child that makes me laugh everyday. Handsome man and he has a new love.... Girls! We have had our hard times. When he was little. He didn't have to do a whole lot for himself. Why? He had an older brother and sister that did it all. Even spoke for him. The most favorite memory.. Him in a high chair, eating donuts. My daughter and son sitting at the table as well. My oldest is done, and I'm cleaning him up. I come back and the last of the donuts are gone. When asking where the donuts went? My daughter blames her younger brother (who's in a high chair) for taking the last of the donuts... Have to love his sister. She did that a lot. He's still meek and mild. He's 15. Has a girlfriend, and is an absolute Mommys Boy! 

Time flies when you have kids. You want the best for your children. Children don't come with instruction manuals. If they did? We would have all "perfect" kids in this world. We are all created equal, brought up to live, laying and love. Some don't have a fighting chance and live in pure survival mode. Parents, please take the time to spend with your kids. You only get one chance for memories. Make them good. Do everything you can to do for them all that they ask for. You may be so wrapped up into yourself, work, other issues and completely miss what was vitally important to them. Communicate, and hug them. Remember, don't go to bed at night without telling them that you love them. 

Have a great day. 

There's Time!

It's been a GREAT 12 Days of Christmas. Tomorrow is the last day to ensure that all your items will be here by Christmas. 

If you have orders your wanting to place, please go online and place them by Midnight Monday 12/16/13. 

I've enjoyed Coaching every on with their Spas. I'm not hosting Spas after tomorrow. Unfortunately it would not guarantee your Christmas packages on time.

If you would like a Spa, to just relax. That would be wonderful, and I'd be more than Happy to do that for you and a group of friends. Once again, if you need one for Christmas, tomorrow is the last day. 

I am booking Spas for January. Please call me at 636/357-6524, and schedule a date and time. After the Holidays, we need some "ME" time. We've worked to beat the traffic and run around with everyone trying to shop frantically. All did difficult and not as enjoyable. 

Take the time out to call me for a booking in January. Take that time to sit back and relax. There are always NEW products coming out. January is no exception. The New Year offers are one of the best times for those who need special attention after these stressful Holidays. 

Wishing wceryone a wonderful Merry Christmas, and a Blessed New Year. To everyone! I am grateful and thankful for your support. All my clients are exceptional and I look forward to serving you in the future. 

Have a great Holiday Season. 

Adult Obesity On The Rise.... Why!

Sitting at school the other day. Waiting to pick up my child. I observed, what appeared to be the most overwhelming site, that was unimaginable to my eyes. Grouped in 3's and 4's, as average kids do. 2-3 of those in the group were obese. Time for me to do some research of my own. Here is what I found. 

Those born in the years 1995-1996, have major issues with depression and thoughts of suicide. On average, in speaking with a group of Teens born in this area. They feel that suicide is selfish. Even though they think about it. They turn to food and games instead. Helps them leave the reality of what is truly bothering them. It was amazing to me, just how serious this age group is about how "messed up" they believe their parents are. Knowing they are teenagers. I believe that parents are truly not taking the time to LISTEN to their children. I understand that we parents are busy trying to survive and get these kids not only through school, but college too. Plus keep food on the table and a roof over their head. That's difficult these days, and we have to trim the fat somewhere. Where we are not trimming the fat is in the kitchen. It's the easiest place to start. I'll explain towards the end of my blog. 

Here is what interested me even further. Per the CDC.... 1/3 Plus of US Adults are obese. That's outlandish! Here's what really brought an eyebrow up. As a Nurse myself, and moving up in my career. Estimated Annual Medical Costs for Treating Obesity for 2008? $147 Billion! That means that the Average cost to treat Obesity Health Issues on average are $1500 higher per Obese person that those who are taking the Healrhy approach. So, why are we doing these things to our body? 

Being Obese comes with a hefty price. Obese Adults are more than 90% prone to Hypertention (High Blood Pressure) Heart Atrack, Stroke & Type 2 Diabetes. All because you have not treated the issues at hand. What's causing you to be Obese? If you have ever looked at your Drs face when you go to see them. They no longer discuss your weight do they. Why? They don't hear you asking to change. And they don't see you alone, trying to change. When they do? They support you. 

This bothered me more than ever. Missouri, 1985 to 2010 has risen in Obesity 30.5% in Adult Obesity. 

So, why are our children following in our path. Because we as Adults are not taking the Challenge to change the ways. We are wrapped up in our issues, causing our children to "not care", "be rebellious", and most definitely feel like they are worth nothing so why live? 

It's time to make that change. When are you going to speak to your child and join them in this fight? 

Helping Others

Christmas is the time of year to spread the Love of your heart to others. That is exactly what our family is doing. We are taking all our profits from BeautiControl Sales, for Christmas, and giving it to our Local Wentzville MO Food Pantry. 

There was a time in my life, when I needed the help. I was new to the area. Trying to find a job, and my kids? I couldn't let them suffer due to my inability to acquire a job in a certain amount of time. But, through the local services of the Food Pantry. They assisted me to not only provide food on the table. But they gave me the knowledge of where to go to get myself back up on my feet. With plenty of food to get me through a month. I had a job in the community as a nurse within a week of their services. They truly care, and shared their resources to help. Now, it's time to give back. 

I became a BeautiControl Consultant to help those who not only want that privacy in their own home to relax after a hard day. I also help Women and Men to decrease their stress, and look sharp for that interview that is coming upon them. It may be the only job they can take at this time, so they too can provide for their family. I give them a complete makeover and helpful tips on presentation to make that first impression and hopefully obtain that job, to put food on the table, pay their rent or house payment, or even their electric bills. Giving back to those in need. Nothing fulfills the heart knowing you have helped someone in great need. 

That's why I have started the 9 Days of Act of Random Kindness. Orders can be placed online at www.beautipage.com/mscott

Great online sales from BeautiControl to help get your Christmas shopping going and maybe help you get those last minute ideas covered. Our goal is to give Wentzville MO Food Pantry $200. On average, that is what the food pantry hands out each day to local residents in need. If we are able to help one family or 10 families. That is a return for their help in setting my family on track. Help give to those in need this Holiday Season. 

Join my blog for daily health care and skin care tips. Serving one family at a time. To recap the past few days. All can be purchased online. Place your orders and spread your love of helping others. 

Living Healthy

Do you try your best to eat healthy? Do you still have problems losing the excess weight? Are you like me? Muffin top? Or do you have more to lose than a Muffin top? Either way? The goal is to be healthy. Not everyone has the ability to be supermodel skinny. In fact, if you are pushing yourself for that look? It's just unrealistic, and not healthy. 

Obesity is a growing epidemic. Our children sit around and play videos, eat unhealthy, and drink anything but water. Just with switching from soda to water, you can drop 10 pounds. Not that easy though. I know. I use to drink 8 bottles of Mt Dew a day. Never drank water for 8 years. Now? I cannot drink a full bottle of Mt Dew, and all I crave is water. 

With Visalus, the weight melts off. I am not able to workout due to severe back issues. I've been through physical therapy, and I'm not a candidate for surgery. At the age of 42, I've had my left knee replaced, and my health has deteriorated due to not being healthy. High blood pressure, Migraines, etc... 

I started Visalus back in Sept. Finished my first 90 Day Challenge. Working on my second 90 Day Challenge. I have 20 more pounds to lose and be within my BMI. It's not too late to get started. 

I still enjoyed Thanksgiving and did not gain a pound. I've learned better portion control and to drink a bottle of water after each meal. With that, I don't have any cravings for sweets, or to over eat. My life has changed. For the better, and with my weight coming down. I'm able to take the pressure off my back, and legs. Keeping another knee surgery out of the picture. 

I ask that you look at your current health. If you are over weight and not healthy. Smoke? And want to stop, but afraid of gaining weight? I encourage you to not only get healthier for you. Set an example for your children and other children. They will follow your lead. 

Random Act Of Kindness

The story of Christmas is one that is not only Beautiful, but Magical. I adore sitting around the Holidays and spreading my love of Christmas to my kids. I have children ages 21, 20, 17, 17, & 15... Two in college, and 3 at home. It's tradition to put the tree up and let the kids decorate while I write down things they would like for Christmas. 

Each year, my children take one gift and donate it to a charity. This year, as a family, we are going to donate money to the local food pantry. The children are hosting their own Personal Spa, taking all their profits, and will have a check cut for the local Wentzville Food Pantry. I thought that was such a nice idea, that my BeautiControl team is going to do a similar project for Christmas. 

The kids have decorated the tree. It's beautiful as always. They have chosen to sell BC Nail Polish and Makeup. I look forward to their desire to help our local community.

As for my Team? I'm offering an online Spa starting December 6, 2013, to December 15th, 2013. Daily offers, and Savings for the all profits to go to the Local Wentzville MO Food Pantry. They help serve over 1000 families a month. Anything helps these families. Christmas is about giving. It is my Teams first year with BC, and all our BC family would love to do, is give back. 

Find your heart, and help give back to a local community Food Bank. Giving a Family a Christmas dinner may be all they receive. And that means more to them, than any toy. Spread the word of Christ in Christmas. 

Thank you, Michelle Ralls 🎅🎄

Loving My Life

Do you ever stop to think about everything that you have, and about what you don't have? I do. There is so much to be thankful for. The Lord will never give you more than you can handle, but he does want you to appreciate life. 

I am a lucky person. I have 3 beautiful children. I have an awesome husband. Through everything, we are a family going strong. There are always ups and downs, but I'm thankful for everything we have went through. 

Absolutely, I am thankful for the family support of my 2 private businesses. I wouldn't be where I am with BeautiControl and BodyByVi, without their support. I am grateful. 

I'm thankful for my clientele. For giving me just one chance to come out, and show them a nice relaxing time with BeautiControl. Results are instant to see that night. They are amazed by how much of a difference the product works exactly how I state it does. I'm grateful to call them my friends, and for being a part of my BeautiControl Sisterhood. 

I'm thankful for everyone who has joined BodyByVi with me. Together we are getting healthier, and we are working endless days to get our children to understand that obesity is a problem. It's never a good idea to be above your BMI index. Nothing makes me happier to not only call them my friends, but a part of my family. 

The small things mean more to me than anything. Not taking each day for granted. Appreciating every little thing I have. Appreciating the people in my life. 

I hope that this makes someone think, and reflect on how much they have. Not about what they don't have. If you have dreams, they can come true. You have to work for those dreams. You have to have faith that your hard work, and the appreciation for others in order for dreams to be reality. 

What are your dreams? What will you change to make them happen? I cannot ask for anything more in my life, because I have dreams. I appreciate today's life, and work towards my dreams. What about you? 

Saving Just Makes Scents

I love smelling good. I want a product that lasts all day. From the time I place it on my skin at 5:30am until I get home. Whether that's followed by going out for the night after work. To just making it home after work. I want to always smell rich and scented. 

I have finally, after searching for years. Found the perfect product a year ago. BeautiControl! All products in the Bath & Body/Perfume section are the most exhilarating. My favorite is ZYNERGY! My second favorite is Tierra Azul.

Pampering

Everyone needs to be pampered. However, the solution is cost savings. For example: I pampered myself and my husband on products that I have had with one refill over a 12month period. Listen up, because we all need to take a day, sit back, and pamper ourselves. Why? Today's world. I'll explain.

Yesterday, I called my husband and asked what time he would be home. Told him we were going to pamper. He said that sounded good. We have both been working over time, and these days, times are different. 

With winter quickly upon us. It's time to stay on top of your skin. Skin is your first line of defense. Keep it moisturized, and wash your hands frequently. Use the Mani system so they don't crack open. Cracked skin leads to open areas retrieving those pesky bugs into the skin. 

I used the BC Exfoliating Body System, and Exfoliation Face System. All in the shower. Watch the dead skin fall off your body. Takes 15min to Exfoliate. 

As I dried off, I moisturized with Detox Body Creme. Get those toxins out of my skin, and wrapped up with a nice fuzzy warm body suit. Let my body Detox. 

While my body was Detoxing, I gave myself a Pedi. That included the Pedi Program, with the Creme for my feet placed and cling wrap around my feet and my W.H.O. Socks. While all wrapped up, before starting my Mani, I started showing my husband how to pamper himself. 

He likes baths. So I ran the bath water, placed in 2tsps of Detox and 2tsps of Therapeutic Minerals. He was sore and very cold from a hard days work. He lavished in the bath. 

I began my Mani. Simple process with BC that takes 5min. Taking off the dead, dry skin, from nursing all weekend. We have to wash our hands before entering and after leaving. Using the BC Hand Treatment daily. The BC Mani being used twice a week to keep my hands looking younger and free from cracking open. Then I applied the Extreme Hand Treatment. 

As my husband finishes up. He places on the BC Detox Body Creme. Wraps up in his robe, and we sit and visit over a beer. Letting our body just detox over a period of an hour. We then wipe our bodies down with a towel and spray on the Detox Body Mist. Very refreshing and cooling to the body. Making our night very calm and relaxed. 

This is such an important part of our week. It's time for us to spend some peaceful time together. Relax, and just talk. These days and times are tough. It's important to communicate and slow down the hectic pace you have faced all day. Maybe all week. Pick just two days a week to pamper. Stop the time, and communicate. 

We choose the Detox program because of our life style. Also, Detoxing helps rid all the toxins from either meds, food, environmental factors, or stress. Many things affect our life. Take the time out for you. It's important today. Enjoy your family. Enjoy your friends. Enjoy yourself. 

Includes BC Spa Detoxifying Clay Masque, BC Spa Detoxifying Bath Soak, BC Spa Detoxifying Foot Creme, BC Spa Detoxifying Body Creme and BC Spa Refreshing Mist.
On Sale for $89.90

Set includes BC Spa Manicure Cuticle Oil Pen, BC Spa Manicure Instant Manicure and BC Spa Manicure Extreme Repair Hand Creme (3.4 oz/85 g) 
On Sale for $34.40

Products that last! Products to give you the time to Pamper yourself, AND if your like me. Save yourself $120 a month on Mani's and Pedis. Sale Ends November 22nd. 

Email your orders to mls4172@gmail.com or call me. If I'm not available, please leave a message. I will get back with you to place your orders.

Healthy Living

Hello Everyone!

I hope that everyone is having a great day. Today is my beginning weekend from Nursing. However, it's my day to speak to everyone. Yes, education! Everyone loves to learn something. 

Today we are speaking on Health. 

Childhood obesity has both immediate and long-term effects on health and well-being.

• Children and adolescents who are obese are likely to be obese as adults11-14 and are therefore more at risk for adult health problems such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, several types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.6  One study showed that children who became obese as early as age 2 were more likely to be obese as adults.12
• Overweight and obesity are associated with increased risk for many types of cancer, including cancer of the breast, colon, endometrium, esophagus, kidney, pancreas, gall bladder, thyroid, ovary, cervix, and prostate, as well as multiple myeloma and Hodgkin’s lymphoma.15

Reference www.cdc.gov/Adolescent School And Health

All my life I've been a big woman. I started being more conscious about my weight at an early age. It was my 8th grade summer. I'd been called every name under the sun. Teased at school every day. I was not only one of the tallest in my class, but big. All that teasing took a toll on my self esteem, and how I really wanted to be. So, I did the worst thing ever. Not knowing the health consequences that could come. I choose to be bulimic. Lost 60 pounds over the summer and thought I looked great. Didn't realize until I was 19, how badly I had damaged my body. Don't let your child come to this point. Here's why:

If not treated, bulimia can lead to serious, long-term health problems. It is common for people to hide the condition from others for years. By the time others discover the disorder, many people with bulimia already have serious problems. These range from mild to severe, depending on the type of purging behaviors and how long they have continued. Health problems caused by bulimia include:

• Tooth decay, toothaches, swollen gums, gum disease (gingivitis), and erosion of tooth enamel. These are caused by acid in the mouth from vomiting.
• Osteoporosis.
• Electrolyte imbalances and changes in metabolism that can lead to heartproblems, such as arrhythmia and even death.
• Dehydration, which can lead to weakness, fainting, or kidney damage.
• Inflammation or tears of the esophagus, which may cause bloody vomit.
• Swollen salivary glands.
• Fainting or loss of consciousness, usually because of low blood pressure.
• Abnormal heartbeat (arrhythmia).
• Low body temperature.
• Suicide risk when feeling discouraged about having bulimia or a relapse or about ongoing body image issues.

Obesity is a disease. Kids these days are more harsh to each other than 23yrs ago. If you think your child doesn't have a mean streak to some nature. You are fooling yourself. The bullying is out of control! My children (the youngest two) are overweight. I just (this past month) due to BodyByVi, was able to get my youngest child to scale on the Pediatricians BMI vs Height. He's in the healthy range now. 

We have longed, as a family to find a program that everyone can use, and make progress. It's all about Healthy. Being healthy, eating healthy, and enjoying life without health concerns at such a young age. 

It's never too late to start a healthy life style. BodyByVi can give back your health, and give you the capabilities that you haven't had for a while. Focus on this as a family. When a child has a parent or the entire family working together. Success is greater, and the family is stronger. I know. My son and I have built a bond over the past 60+ days that cannot be broken. 

He's happier, and so am I. You can order your package at http://michelleralls.bodybyvi.com/challenge

Have a GREAT day!! Love to all! We are all beautiful. Let's show it, here's my sons progress.

Love & Beauty

Do you take care of your skin? Do you moisturize every night? Do you have that radiant glow like a Hollywood Star? 

If you answered NO to those three questions. Then it's time for some education. 

Did you know that if you don't moisturize every day, your skin (first line of defense) grows thinner. Meaning that as you age. Your skin gets more wrinkles, more cellulite, and the ability to receive more infections are greater. If you love your skin. Whether it be because you have a natural good tone, or you have a nice tan. Moisturizing is still the key to keeping that skin healthy, and at its best for first line of defense.  

Have you wondered why you think you can't have healthy skin like a Hollywood star? Well... You can! It's simple! With BC you can have, at your hands the glow your always looking for, and that special look of " oh! Your 40yrs old?" Yes I am, and I don't look a day over 30! I love that compliment! You will too! 

With BC's Anti-Aging products you can easily have healthy looking skin. Glowing remarks about your age, and as you age. Your skin (first line of defense) stays healthy and strong. Wrinkles are in your past and not in your future. 

Now is the time to get on the Healthy Skin Look. No better time that today to start.
