Today’s featured weight loss success story: Marie lost 63 pounds.
“I decided to go on a diet last October for my sisters wedding. When I realized how great I felt after losing 15 pounds, I decided to push myself a little more. Four months later, I’ve lost 63 pounds. I cut out soda, late night snacks, sugars, high carbs and I exercised more. I jogged a lot. I also did Zumba and other exercises at home. I just signed up for a gym near by. I need to firm up, so I’m going to start lifting weights. I did this not only for myself but also for my 8 year son which I’m raising alone. I’ve always been insecure and it caused me to be an emotional eater.”

You look great! On the stories it would be great to.see starting weight.and ending. Also if we can.get more on ways to.lose weight after ypu already.cut.things out your diet. For ex. I cut out sodas, red meat, pork, amd whites out 6 years ago lost a 100. But graudally put.on 75 over 5 years. I never add any of that back in my diet. So I really have nothing else to cut out.But looking for a life long solution.

Are you exercising? That wasn’t mentioned and I know that helped tremendously in keeping the weight off along with the dietary changes. Don’t give up, it’s well worth the effort.
Marie says
Thank you Karen. And yes I am exercising, I do light exercise at home, I jog, and do Zumba classes. I was 228 when I started. I am now 165.
