30 Facts About Me

1) Last things first. My last name is POINDEXTER and I absolutely LOVE it. As a child, I used to get teased for it (as Poindexter equates nerd), but over the years I’ve learned to embrace it and so does everyone else! Poindexter is a name people most likely won’t forget, I like to stand out and I’m proud of my roots!

2) Call me crazy but I LOVE hardcore boot camps! Dirt, sweat, heat (maybe even shed a little blood…just kidding lol)

3) I LOVE healthy food! Flaxseed, seaweed, green tea, wheat grass, fresh fruits and veggies...bring it!

Bonus Fun Fact: Cilantro and avocado make everything taste better. God smiled when making these.

4) When I was little, I wanted to be a basketball star upon growing up (I used to BREATHE the sport). I ended up taking a different direction, and to this day I cannot watch women’s basketball without getting sentimental.

5) I can't wait until the day I'm blessed to have children, so (when they are older) I can sit up in the stands at their sporting events and say, "THAT'S MY BAAABY!!!" Yes…I will be one of those type of parents…and I will be hostile.

6) In 2006, my mother  and I won a Mother-Child look-alike contest. We were HANDS DOWN winners! Not only do we look alike but our mannerisms are the same. I take that as a compliment to be the spitting image of my mom. 


7) I am not a fan of men in skinny jeans, purses man bags, tight shirts with lots of glitter, mohawks or blonde hair. Rock it if you want to but we most likely won’t be dating. It confuses me to date a man that potentially shares the same products and clothes.

8) Guys ask me all the time what I look for in a mate. Well here goes (it's very simple): fear God, honest with integrity, health conscious, positive, ambitious, supportive, humorous and loves me unconditionally (see that wasn’t so bad now was it?)

My Even AWESOMER Detox Experience

Last year I blogged about my AWESOME 8 Day Master Cleanse experience, mainly giving the steps to the process and what each ingredient does. Well, I detoxed AGAIN for 10 days! (WHOOOT!!!) This blog post I wanted to share my own personal reasons I find beneficial for doing the Master Cleanse (MC). Here’s 10:


1) Eliminate wastes/toxins from the body – This is 95% of the reason I do the cleanse. TMI but your body is eliminating solids, acids and mucus EVERY DAY during the process! If that doesn’t motivate you to detox your body I don’t know what will!


2) Lose weight – Average weight loss for men is 2 pounds a day, women average 1 to 1 ½ pounds a day. I loss a total of 11 pounds by the end of the 10 days.


3) Clearer skin- With the large quantity of water you are drinking and number of toxins flushing out your body, you not only hydrating your skin but purifying it.


4) Abundance of energy– Day 1-3 may be the toughest to overcome, but after that hurdle I am literally WIRED! I even did workouts & outdoor jogs 8 out of the 10 days while on MC. I simply suggest if you do decide to workout, listen to your body and not overexert yourself.


5) Restful and deeper sleep – I’m telling you…it is pure bliss! Normally I tend to wake up 2 to 3 times throughout the night, but while on the MC I sleep like a baby. Ahhhhhh…
