I did it!!

[allisonisthinthxto1st]

I have been overweight since I was born! Seriously! This is the first diet that really worked for me~ I have tried them all! Pretty much!

I am so happy, and amazed with myself and Dr. Cohen and his staff. Truly amazed. I am thankful everyday, and if I can do this......and it worked....well then holy mackrel....

Best,
Allison

OMG Allison :hypnotic: this is AMAZING !!!!
May I ask how many pounds were melted away :laughing:
I am just starting the process and I really, really hope to be successful.

Hi there Meemsi,
I lost a total of 125 pounds in about 6 and 1/2 months. Started in April, and finished in October.

In addition I took measurements and over the course of the diet I lost 91 inches off of my body!! Thats 7 feet 6 inches! Isnt that crazy!

It is a wonderful diet....if you follow your prescription that was assigned to you....you will lose the excess body fat. Simple as that.

It's so fast compared to other diets.....that was my motivation.

Allison,

Your experience is truly motivating! :clapping: I am on my 4th week and have great results also but your results are unbelievable. It helps me to be patient and just continue to follow the diet.

So, how is the refeeding program going thus far?

[Kristie]

Allison,

You are truly inspirational. I directed my mother to the main Dr. Cohen page to take a look at your testimonial as soon as I saw it posted there! She is thinking of starting now! So thank you.

Here is my favor: Did you notice how Sammy posted her results breakdown in the Re-feeding thread? I would absolutely love to see YOUR results breakdown if you have them recorded.

I found Sammy's experience motivational, and I sure yours would be very encouraging as well, for all of us who check into this forum. If it wouldn't be too much trouble, I would sure love to see how you progressed through this. I know that everyone is different. But it is so nice to share in the success of those who have gone before.

You're amazing!

Allison,

I second what Kristie said - you are inspirational!

I'm hoping :praying: that in a few months that can be me...

Allison,

You can not even imagine how motivating your words and pictures are!!!

I'll never be young again (like you are) but maybe, by following this diet, I'll be T H I N ???? :praying:

Allison,
Your story is awesome! You are beautiful! and your happiness comes across in your writing. Thank you for sharing your success. It is a huge motivator and actually kept me on track during a Super Bowl Party over my first weekend on the diet. When I felt really weak, I logged on and read your story. No joke! It kept me on track and now I'm on day 10 and am feeling great! Hope you keep us posted on your maintenance. You look FABULOUS!!!

hi alison-

i am beyond speechless at your transformation. HOORAY FOR YOU! what an incredible gift you have given yourself.
i am on day 4 of my program. i have 95 lbs to lose and i would love to get to goal in 5 months. do you think this is possible? why do you think the weight came of you so, so quickly? i am 100% OP and will not deviate or cheat or lapse. i wan to get to goal ASAP and do it properly.
i'd love to hear any and all ideas alison.
you are a superstar!!!

Hi, bitten!

I, too, would like to hear Allison's answer to this question, but I can tell you that I lost 50 pounds in my first 12 week session and then re-upped, hoping to lose the other 51 in the second 12 weeks. I am strictly on the plan, no deviations, and I know there's a chance I may have to sign on for a third session, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed! I do think you can lose 95 in 24 weeks, but each of us is different and there are so many factors in play. I seem to steadily lose around 2 lbs. per week, and every now and then have a spurt of extra loss. Hope this helps - :)
