My Before and After New Directions

I know when I was starting out and going through this program that seeing people that had succeeded on the plan helped keep me motivated. So on that note I wanted to share my before and after pics. I still want to lose maybe 20 more pounds, but if I don't I'm happy with where I'm at.

When times get hard just remember that this isn't forever. Someone in my class on the very first day said the best thing ever and I repeated it to myself often.

"I've eaten good food all my life and I will eat good for again."

    Thanks!

    Karen and Bhinton, yes I feel awesome and have so much more confidence.

    I can't wait to see everyone's before/after as you hit your goals. Taking pics every 10lbs was also really helpful to me because sometimes it's hard to see that loss in the mirror, but when you put pics side by side you really start to see the changes. It's very helpful to have that motivation when times get tough.

    Amazing! I remember reading your posts on a forum when I started out - It really helped me get started & motivated. I'm about 10lbs away from my clinic goal. Next week I meet with the doctor and I think he's going to push me to next phase which is the drinks tapering off and they want to stop the ketosis (scary!!) The last few months have been a breeze - but I still remember the struggle when I started out.
