  • I hope you are still doing this?! I am going to restart 21 df again. I loved it! and it really worked, and believe me when I say I have tried a bazillion ways of eating. Not sure why this was so different for me, but it was and it works. I hope others are still here and doing it too!
  • WTG Michelle! I LOVE walking with Leslie too! I usually do the 2 mile and once or twice a week the 4 mile. Glad you have found what works for you. That really is key isn't it? I too much prefer walking indoors to out, only because I live where there are too many weather extremes. Right now it is extremely hot and humid and…
  • Never hurts to shoot for the stars! Wish you much success Sandy! :flowerforyou:
  • Thanks sooooo much everyone! No one is more shocked than I! In addition to making a decision to eat healthy and exercise, I found out that my next decision had to be to take VERY good care of myself and say no when I needed to. That has been a little harder than I thought. But this too is getting easier also with each…

  • yes.....daily thread......great idea! I am finding that my change in attitude (to make myself and my health a priority) is having far reaching results. We are going to visit my daughter in Montana in August. I talked with her today and told her that eating healthy was a top priority for me as was exercising every day. So…

  • My mini goal is to eat healthy and exercise every day for 30 days. I am going to be on vacation for a week in August, and I usually allow that to totally derail me and then it takes forever to get back on tack again. I think that will be a HUGE accomplishment for me and I truly see it happening this time. I am choosing to…
  • wow..thank you ALL for such a warm welcome. I will try to post a couple of times a week. Today is day 6 of my new attitude, and it is truly making a difference. Anytime I am tempted to stray, I remind myself that this is make it or break it time. So if I break, I am done. My mind truly cannot continue the starting and…
  • Hi everyone, I am going to join you all too. I am almost 65 (in August) and made a decision this week, that I will either lose this weight (50 lbs) once and for all or accept it and be done with dieting for the rest of my life. I am soooooo beyond tired of losing gaining losing gaining. I have also looked for the quick fix…
  • beautifully said. I am joining you as a turtle too. I am almost 65 and have lost thousands of pounds over the years as a jackrabbit. I made a decision this week, that I will either be a turtle and keep it off or accept that for the rest of my life, my current weight will be my rest of my life weight. I am sooooooo very…
  • WHOAH!!!! that is AMAZING!!!! Good for you :flowerforyou: I LOVE Leslie!!
  • yes it works and so far I am loving it. I am on day 13 and am down 8 lbs. It is easy peasy and after trying EVERYTHING under the sun. I think I have finally found what works for ME :love: Good luck!! p.s. on the 22nd day you just start over. not complicated at all :)
  • Because some of us are deficient with understanding the size of a deck of card or a ping pong ball. To me it looks like a small book and a baseball LOL! You know, the old "different strokes for different folks". Whatever works for YOU, I support!!
  • Hi, yes it works!! It is the first thing in years that actually feels like something I can do for the rest of my life. I was so scared to try it, especially eating 3 carbs a day, but I felt like I had nothing to lose and it was inexpensive. And although I ate healthy, I struggled with portion control. I HATE counting…
  • Jess, you are doing great!! I am on day 11 of 21 day fix and LOVE IT!! I have about 50 lbs to lose and have really struggled over the years to find SOMETHING that would work. I am cautiously very optimistic but I am thinking I have found it!! Finally LOL I have lost 9 lbs so far and for me that is truly a miracle. I do not…
  • yes and thank you!!:flowerforyou: I am on day 7 of round 1 and for the first time in YEARS feel like I may have found what works for ME. I am so very very grateful! Joy
  • omygoodness Becky, how inspiring are you!! My husband had leukemia several years ago and has never been the same since. Chemo is SOO hard on your body. I am so proud of you for taking a leap of faith and trying something that has helped you heal in ways you could not have dreamed of! So glad you are enjoying the adorable…
  • I so want to support (all) you on your journey, whatever it is!! Sometimes we have to try alot of different and sometimes very expensive things to finds what fits for us. Everybody and Every Body is different! We may all have different opinions about what worked FOR US. But we can still be kind! I am just starting out with…
  • I just got the 21 day fix but have not started yet. Scared I guess. I do not want to fail anymore. I want to be able to do this and be a good role model for my daughters who also struggle with weight. If I can do this, I know they will do this too. I have tried EVERYTHING in the past 6 years to lose weight. Nothing works…

  • thank you for starting this group. I am tired of diets, and working hard to figure out what works best for my body. I am 64 and will lose about 50 lbs this year (trying to be affirmative :) I do Leslie Sansone workouts, so nothing crazy but a good workout nonetheless. I recently got her strength training dvd, but need to…
  • I need to lost about 30 lbs (for starters?) but truly do not have the motivation. I need it for health reasons however. Any advice??
