Friend of Julie: Meet Jane

This is Jane, our newest contributor, and here's Jane's story! She doesn't tell you this in her story, but Jane is a patient woman. She sent me her story two weeks ago and she has waited patiently for me to introduce her. Welcome Jane!

I wanted to share with you my story:

I have been pretty athletic/active my whole life. I started gaining weight in my 30's and had modest success losing and then gaining it back in my 40's. I had a tough year this past 12 months and gained enough weight that I didn't feel like myself. My clothes were tight and I had to go out and buy a pair of pants that was the next size up. Ugh.

Through my work, I met a physician that had been to Julie, she looked great. In passing we talked about Julie and I went out to my car and googled her..... Then called and got on the wait list. This was back in April.

My first session with Julie was July 15. I haven't had a craving since this day. Here is what has happened since then:

1. I'm down a size and maybe a half, feel great.
2. I eat when I'm hungry and not when I'm not.
3. My XL dress shirts are way too big... My L shirts fit loosely.
4. I started out wearing XL champion capri's to walk... I'm now in a Medium. I've never been in a medium, even when I was a size 10. 
5. My belly button is starting to look like a "normal" belly button. Instead of a flat line. :)
6. I'm happier, healthier and want to continue on this journey. 

I'm thankful to have found this blog. I look forward to hearing about everyone's success and struggles. It makes me realize that we are all alike.


Update on my physician friend. I saw her last week and she is now a size 10. I'm guessing she started at a size 22/24. But that's just a guess. She is happy, healthy and completed a Triathlon. Anything is possible if we put our minds to it.
