I have a wonderful family, DH, 2 DS's and twin DD's.:heart: I've battled a weight issue all my life. I've done WW (Weigh Watchers), OA (Overeaters Anonymous), OptiFast, and just about any over the counter diet pill that was out there.
I’m on a new adventure now. I’ve added a new tool to assist me on my new life change. I rec’d this tool in 2006, I went to support group, did follow ups and went on websites for more support. I lost 30 pounds, “I don’t need any help, support or follow up now, I know what to do”
It took me until April of 2009 to get back into the swing of things and realize that I need the help, support and the follow up.
I’m was10 pounds heavier and wanting help. I started searching websites, I went back to the doctor and I started a food dairy. (I was only journaling the food and time, didn’t really care about the rest but now I am and this site is wonderful and easy. I’ve been entering for two days now and I now I will continue because it is so easy.)
On my own I’ve lost 12 pounds and 21 inches in 4 months.:flowerforyou: I’ve been entering in my food journal each day, I've kept on track with intake and have joined an exercise class (Zumba) that I attend twice a week for an hour each.
This site has the next tool for my life change, to bring me to the next level—calorie count! One step at a time!
Thank you Mike and Al for all the work you've done and are doing to help us all out!
