I Wanted to Fall Inlove with My Body Again! & I did!
I Wanted to Fall Inlove with My Body Again! & I did!
Yes, friends, I've successfully shed 40 pounds since June 2011.
The bathing suit photo you see in my weight loss ticker above, was me in 1985, right after I got divorced. I truly thought I was FAT back then! Is that ridiculous or what? I am back to that same weight again.
Only now I have a much better body awareness and I know for sure that I am NOT FAT. The Weight Ticker that shows how much I've shed. I used MyFitnessPal.com to nearly effortlessly track my food and water intake and it's F-R-E-E!
<===Thighs at Size 12. Lost 2.5 inches off of each of them since this Oct. 11 photo.
FYI: The main photo in the header (top of page) is of my new waist and hips. Wow! I lost 9 inches off of my hips, 4 inches off of my waist, and all of my double chins.

I HIGHLY recommend that you visit and revisit my site often as I will be adding so many KEY elements to Diet Success for ANY diet. Not just the one I followed and improved on. Just one of my ideas that I freely share here can be the difference between whether you SUCCEED or FAIL.
Look at the photo to the right taken 6/26/11 Me at size 16 heading towards 18....oh boy look at those gigundos hips! That photo and that day was my WAKE UP CALL==>
Since I can't explain to everyone how to best do this diet which I call the EASIEST diet on the planet. I put together this blog/website so we could all support each other.
I lost my first 10 pounds by just cutting out sugar and drinking more water for a month. Then I went on the HCG diet and lost the next 25 pounds in 40 days. I lost 5 more pounds while on maintenance without weighing or measuring my food. The HCG seems to have reset my metabolism so that this is my new normal and I LOVE IT! Now, it's time to do ROUND 2.
All of my friends have been asking me. How the heck did I do it? How did I finally stop the yo-yo-ing? (Going back & forth between a 14 & a 16) Check out the diet below.
For more info on The Diet: It's the HCG diet. It's great for men & women. I know a pastry chef (guy) who lost 200 pounds on this diet.
CLICK on the Book Cover here or the photo of the Woman with the Measuring Tape and you can download a copy. (You definitely want to read this book as it will make the whole process easier to do.)
It's written by an LPN who worked with doctors administering the diet for 5 years. Sonia, is amazing, And before I found her book, I had to spend hours and hours scouring the internet to put together all of the info found here.I actually couldn't have written it any better than she did. PS in 2 weeks, she'll have the P3 (1st Maintenance Phase guide ready & I will post it here for you to purchase from her.) I've read it. It rocks.
<===Use your mouse to click on the book cover and go check it out.

Comments from Friends & Family:
-My mom's best friend, Cathy, hugged me at Thanksgiving and then realized how much weight I had shed. She said: Hey! Where's the rest of you? It was really awesome to hear her say those words. And... I can't tell you how much fun it's been going from a 16 to a 14 to a 12 to a 10.
-You're a skinny Mommy!- My daughter said this when she came over to do her laundry.
-Oh my gosh, we keep on forgetting til we see you how skinny you've gotten. You look great! --The Wild Cat Canyon Girls (my girl posse support group)
SEND ME SOME LOVE NOTES in the Guest Book Below... I want to hear from you, even if you don't know me. I want to help & inspire as many people as I can.
For those of you who have seen me reduce over these past months and keep it off. Chime in here with what you have seen me do. I so appreciate all of your support via Facebook. Some of you just happened to notice that the newer photos of me were different as in thinner. Woohoo!

Fantastic. Haven't seen you in three or four weeks and look forward to doing so before Christmas. Congrats on doing what you did... everyone is amazed at transformation. By doing the yo-yo, I guess you mean eating and not eating regularly. Binging and splurging, etc. Best to you always, Chris
