I'm a ‘Life-r’
I had not done a lot of diets before . I just wasn't interested and I kept gaining weight. At my highest weight I was 226 pounds. To maintain that, you eat a lot of junk. You're not eating foods that make you feel good physically. If I went on vacation or a day trip it was all about eating. Before, I would always try to cover up my body, even in the summer. I was hot all the time.
When I started with , I lost the weight really quickly. I lost 10 pounds the first week. Within 2-3 weeks, people were noticing. All of a sudden, I could shop in "regular" stores because I'm now a "standard size".
Today I can run upstairs, wear shorts comfortably, and not worry about id I get the middle seat on an airplane, because now I can fit comfortably. People often do double takes. I ran into an old friend and she still had a hard time believing it was really me.
I am into fast and convenient and meal replacements fit my lifestyle. The program is all about calorie-control. I have completely adapted my strategies based on what I have learned. gave me the knowledge, willpower, and support to do it.
