Ladies, I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you.
You have no idea how much you changed my life to the positive. I have been struggling for almost 15 years now, and within a few weeks everything turned around. I feel so liberated!
Thank you so much, and keep up the great work!

I want to second that....
It still gets me so emotional...but I know that everyone on here understand the emotional aspect of this journey. Our journey's arent all the same, but they all lead to the same goal.
I still hear all the voices saying: "you have three children, your body will never be the same again, will never look that good again..." Stuff that.
Thank you ladies.
Here's to two great women and their gift! And to all the friends here on EMTWL too...you all rock! :flowerforyou: 0 -

So many years of keeping my opinion to myself, it's so hard to retrain myself to do the opposite now. But I love seeing the ones that are able to sift through all of the crazy opinions out there, and really make a lifestyle that works for them, and not feel constantly enslaved.
I know that we aren't the first ones to "stumble upon" this info, but I'm grateful that this community continues to spread the info and the love is such a positive way. I've seen SO many people that have the info but either don't care to spread it, or are more interested in showing you how unintelligent you are for *not* already knowing. I'm so happy it's not like that here. Demeaning each other is not the same as "helping" one another to change.
The EM2WL fam is amazing. Unlike anything I could've imagined.
The fam makes it happen. You guys are the best, and the reason we do it. :smooched: :flowerforyou:

Amen! I don't know what I would have done without you girls! You are a true inspiration! To think that I'd be struggling for the rest of my life without this board, is crazy!0

Me too.. that comes from a lady who was once a 330lbs going through a long time battle with weight loss. even though I finally reached lowest weight last year, but been battle with it up and down within 10lbs.. now up 10lbs. Working on changing my relationship with food and emotional eating. Thank you Kiki and Lucia for putting up with a lady like me. 0

A big thankyou fom me as well!
It's great to have somewhere with so much great information and to know if I have a question I would feel comfortable to ask it knowing I'd be taken seriously and get great feedback.
I know I would still be struggling, hungry, losing and gaining it straight back, thinking I would have to struggle for the rest of my life or just give up if it wasn't for this group. I'm so glad I found it when I did.
Thank you!! :flowerforyou:0 -
Yes!! Thank you ladies!!!! You are wonderful and beautiful and supportive and straight up ah-may-zing!! :flowerforyou: :drinker:0

Yes! You guys have put a lot of work and thought into this. Not only have you created this EMTWL group, but the website, videos, and the facebook group. You are going above and beyond to help others. I hope that we can all work hard to improve and pay it forward to others that need this help and information. Thank you! :flowerforyou:0

Yes! Thank you Lucia and Kiki and all the great people in this group! I have learned so much and I feel so liberated! I've never been able to stick to a VLCD for more than 2 days so I always gave up. Now I can do this and I am doing it!! Thank you for always being there for questions and your support! :drinker:0

I would like to say THANK YOU!!! For changing the way I look at diet and exercise. I was caught up for years on the hamster wheel of low calorie high exercise, with little to no results. I was starving, cranky, tired and frustrated. I think if more trainers had half the knowledge Ive learned from you 2 ladies there would be more fit people. I worked with a trainer for 1 year and NOTHING HAPPENED TO MY BODY!!!!. I cant thank you guys enough, and I share what Ive learned with everyone I know.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: 0

Thank you for not being afraid to speak out against societal norm, to plant seeds of health out there for those willing to listen! I'm so thrilled to be a part of something so AWESOME and so life-changing! Thank you for giving me the information and tools to get my life back!0

Lucia and Kiki rock!! Thanks for giving so much of yourselves to help all of us. It is very much appreciated! :flowerforyou: :bigsmile:0

Big thanks here as well...you guys have NO idea what an impact you are making!0

Mega, humungous thanks from me too, ladies. I can't believe how much better I feel health-wise since starting to follow this way of losing weight. I am on a scale break at the moment but I just know that when I hop on to it again it doesn't matter what it says because my clothes fit SO much better than they did.
...and all that just from eating more ?! 0 -
HUGE ditto to what everyone else has written!! I'd still be starving myself and making myself and everyone around me miserable if I hadn't stumbled upon this group!!!0
-
I totally agree. Thanks for all you do!! 0

you gals totally rock!! :glasses: 0

I can't explain how much you have helped in improving my attitude of becoming healthy and not just getting "skinny fat"!
Even the terminology my children use are different., like "I can't wait until you're thin, I mean FIT, so you can take a lick of my ice cream." I told him I could, I just didn't want to at the time. I was so impressed by his understanding. I now have children that will be able to grow up with positive self images. Because their mom's has changed.
I credit that transformation to the both of you and all the positive wonderful people on this forum!!!! 0 -
A DITTO from me too!!!
There are NO words to adequately say Thank You to both of you girls!
Our lives are forever changed!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: 0 -

That's funny that you wrote that. When I was just learning about all of this. (I still am really) I asked a ton of questions and you ladies were right there to help me with such support. It has changed my life. The funny thing is, now that I have been doing this for a few weeks I see that so many people that are new to this are asking the very same questions I did.
Now that I think about it, you guys must have been seeing the same questions over and over for however long you have been doing this but you didn't make me feel that way. You make each and everyone of us feel welcome and you take the time to answer our questions each and every time like its the first time its been asked.
THANK YOU FOR THAT AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!0 -
Ok, now I am tearing up...:sad:
Oh yes, we get the same questions, here, Pms, on our newsfeeds, but it is an honor to help...I was so right there myself. So, we don't mind one bit saying it again, we now have great moderators that help tremendously and we appreciate them...we have awesome EM2WL family that support too...we appreciate all of you.
Susan, when you are a few months down the line, we just ask that you pay it forward and help out with the questions too...we are just over 5000 in a little over 3 mos...not sure where we will be in 3 more months, so we surely will need you to help out:bigsmile:
Lucia:flowerforyou:0 -
Bravo!!! Sharing your knowledge has made a difference to so many! You have never forced your findings or opinions on any one. You have remained Christ like women so humble!!! Thank you again!0

I'm w/Lucia.. :sad:
:sad: :sad: :sad:
and yes PLEASE, everyone pay it forward!
Adopt a newbie! :flowerforyou: because we all were one at some point
The more we all do our part to spread the word, and help one another, the bigger the fam grows. It's the community effort from y'all, that helps Lucia and I to continue to make as many resources as possible to keep everyone informed and with multiple options/info for achieving success (even when it means stepping outside of our comfort zones w/FB, Youtube, and Twitter, lol...which is gonna be interesting...to say the least :blushing: ).

I have nothing to say that hasn't been said, other than this is not my first thank you to Kiki and Lucia, i know it won't be the last time i thank you both!!
You both seriously rock and have the patience of a saint!!
Hey are you ladies nutritionists or personal trainers or something?
Because honestly if you are not, then i seriously recommend you get into something like that!
THe world really could do with more people in the health and fitness industry who have this type of knowledge
For Kiki :flowerforyou:
For Lucia ia :flowerforyou:0 -
AGREED!
You are both so wonderful! I am super happy I found the EM2WL at the beginning of my journey - I feel well-equipped with all the healthy information I need and I wasn't distracted by any "calorie-slashing" or crash dieting this time around. I'm not very far toward my goal yet, since I just started recently, but I've already started reading New Rules, doing a metabolism reset, and working out every day while I learn more about strength training.
Honestly, I feel like through you two ladies and the EM2WL group I've gained the confidence I need to not be afraid to put on muscle and take good care of my body. I've learned so much in the last two weeks!
And most importantly, I'm really amazed at how much time you devote to personally responding to everyone, making videos that talk about your personal experiences... everything! It's so wonderful. I really hope that in a few months I'll be looking half as fit as you ladies and I can help others see the beauty of EM2WL!
THANKS!! ::hugs::0 -
