1 year ago today:

One year ago today I was:

Size 24

VERY unhappy with myself

VERY depressed about my weight

Felt like I was just going to drop dead of a heart attack because of my weight

Couldn’t get out of my own way I was so tired all the time

Ate constantly

DESPERATE to loose weight

Driving my poor husband crazy because I was so unhappy with myself

Knew weight loss surgery was the next step and only step left........-

until a dear friend of mine told me about a girl she worked with and how that girl  was loosing weight (Jennifer) and what she was doing. I was open to trying ANYTHING, I really didn't want surgery.  Desperate for help I called Julie’s office and made an appointment.

1 year ago today I walked into her office and haven’t looked back since!

I was scared and cried the whole way to that first appointment. I hadn’t met Jennifer yet, only knew from what her co-worker and my dear friend had told me about her journey. Was so scared I was wasting money AGAIN to loose weight.

In 1 years time I am a new person. I am not at goal yet, am loosing VERY slow, but I am so happy!

My constant hunger is GONE!

My food obssession is GONE!

My self confidence is UP!

My attitude is GREAT!

I have more energy than I have had in years!

And the best part is I know in my mind that I WILL REACH MY GOAL!

I have never in my life been on a program that was so easy to do. I love not having to think about anything, it is so cut and dry.


My absolute highest weight EVER!
 
 Just a few weeks before going to Julie for the first time!






1 year later
 
 
 
 
 
                                            



I have my life back!

My new eating lifestyle works and is working for me!

Julie has saved my life and given my life back to me!

You were an answer to many prayers!!!!

Happy re-Birthday to me!!!!!

  2. Congratulations Linda on your successful journey! It's wonderful to hear you writing so much positive about where you are. I get that it's been a long road, you and me have a slower train than others, but you know what, a week, a month, a year -- passes whether we choose to be on program or not. Congratulations for taking care of yourself this year! Things can only get better from here! Woohoo!

    Keep up the good work!
