Before and "during"

[Quality of Life]

Here is a before picture and then a "during" picture. (with my 2 "boys") - I have lost over 44 pounds in 19 weeks and have around 20 or so more to go! What a HUGE difference this has made for me!

I am so excited about this program and feel so much better that I cannot wait to get to my goal weight and stay there!:weights:

Plus, I am doing this with a friend now which really makes a difference. I cannot wait until I get to see the "after" picture at my goal weight.

W-O-W-E-E-E-E, Juliene, you are a very beautiful woman. Congratulations on your success. You should be verrrrrrrrrrry proud of yourself. I know I am!!! :)

[Quality of Life]

Thank you so very much! That is very kind of you. I cannot tell you how wonderful it feels to be healthy again. I have been having to tell everyone that I see what program I am on since everyone is noticing the big weight loss. If everyone that says they are registering does there should be a huge influx of new members soon!

I look at it this way, the more people doing the program the more support we have, right?

Hi Juliene ~

WOW! :clapping:You look absolutely amazing! I loved seeing your pictures! What an inspiration you are to those of us who are new. I, too, had a friend introduce me to the program and we are doing it together. Although in the forum you do feel support of others, it’s really great to have someone right at home going through it with you. Actually, my husband saw my weight loss for the first week and thought, “hey, I should do your diet.” {friendhug} Having support is wonderful; however, having the support of those closest to you is truly a gift.

Congratulations on your success so far! Keep it up!!

{hi} there Juliene

{congrats} on having lost 44 pounds in 19 weeks!

:clapping3: you look so much YOUNGER!!! {goodjob}


Plus, I am doing this with a friend now which really makes a difference.

The best thing about converting all your friends and family into your Diet Buddies is that when they are all eating healthy food, you won’t have to face them eating the bad stuff and this distracting you, besides, nothing ever beats or replaces SUPPORT at home with your loved ones!

‘Your boys’ are beautiful and so is their Mommy!!!

You are glowing!!! Congrats on your 44 lbs. I am at 40 lbs. and you make me want to pull out my before pictures just to see if my change is as dramatic as yours.....CONGRATS!!!!!!!

Hi AmyLynn,

You MUST find some before pics. I just did that myself last weekend and OH MY GOODNESS!!!! Having just starting our second twelve weeks I think it was just what I needed to stay motivated. The weight loss is definitely slowed way down and I'm getting so frustrated 'cause I'm so close (yet so far) from refeed. I know you've been feeling the same off and on the last month or so. Yes - look at your before pics and it'll remind you how awesome this diet is, how well it works, and how good you are looking!! As soon as I have some time to post I'll try to do so. It's really crazy the difference.

[Quality of Life]

I could not agree with you more. The pictures are what make a difference. I think that what happens is we get used to seeing ourselves with the weight loss and we tend to forget how far we have come! The pictures really helped me actually "see" the difference and remember where I was and how far I have come! They are what will really keep you motivated!

[Shasha]

{hi} there Everyone

I agree 100% with Juliene -


I think that what happens is we get used to seeing ourselves with the weight loss and we tend to forget how far we have come!

I believe it's difficult to notice the difference because you see yourself on a daily base, but look closely at the faces of those who have last seen you before you stared your journey!

Another great motivator is trying on your old fat clothes again - especially if you have something that use to sit tight!

Keep up the good work!!! {cheerleader}

[LesKiya]

You look great and its an encouragement to all of us. I ran into an old friend Friday and Friday night she got online and signed up! This morning at church, I had another woman write down the web site as well. She hadn't seen me since I started and her eyes bugged out.

{hi} there Lesley

THAT IS WONDERFUL! :clapping3:

Now you know, it doesn't matter how you feel, others can see the HUGE and WONDERFUL progress that you are making!
