I must say I have lost 87 pounds and plan to lose 30 more!!

At one time, I was 252 pounds eventhough, my Orthopaedic Surgeon told
me I WAS NOT big I felt like it. I admit it I was in complete denial of me
being obese!

I told him that I was going to be different the next time he was going to see me
in a month!! I started Weight Watchers and I have kept it off for almost seven years!!

I am currently helping with a diet program at my church called FIRST PLACE 4 HEALTH!!
I love it, and it is Bible based with Bible studies to help you!! I will be successful, because
I realize that God can do the impossible while I can do the possible!!

    You are AWESOME. Way to go! :flowerforyou:
  • I just signed up for a bible study at my church that is the FIRST PLACE 4 HEALTH!! Just started the program yesterday, but our books don't come in until next week. I think if I include God with my weight loss, it just might work better for me.

    Congrats girl! I am in your same position. I used to weigh 249 lbs and am down to 171 at the moment. I have about 30 more to go as well. I was in denial as well...until I put on a mens size XL jacket that was my boyfriends and it wouldn't zip. I think that was the breaking point for me. That is AWESOME that you have kept it off for 7 years...that is the hard part I think! I have been up and down on my weight all throughout my teen years and now I am finally realizing I have to make it a lifetime change. Its great that you are trying to help others--I feel the same way myself I get soo excited when I see people making changes cuz I know its HARD! much <3!

    Wow! Congrats on doing such a great job so far! I just finished week 1 of ChaLEAN Extreme and I LOVE it (even though she is kicking my butt). Keep up the great work!:smile:
