I had reached a desperate point of life, where my weight was starting to dictate to me the style of life I could live. I started to be careful where I sat: ie theaters, airplane seats and more just to fit...not that I couldn't; I just couldn't do it comfortably any more. I was so afraid that someone would notice, or worse yet, I would get stuck. I adjusted to my environment in many other ways, due to the fact that I was now "obese". An awful word, with worse feelings, left me in a very depressed state of mind. That led me to eat!!!!!!
I was looking for something to give me the tools to lose the weight sensibly, and effectively. I had tried several things myself but couldn't do it. This diet food plan gave me those tools. It was already measured for me, and the plan was simple...I just had to do it. It took several days to get used to the new food. It was a very different taste than I was used to of course I was used to all the wrong things. I remember calling a couple of really good friends that first day telling them I can't do this, I just can't do this. Being the good friends they are...they both said, yes you can!!!! Along with their encouragement and rethinking my patterns I did!!!
I learned how to use little things to help me stay on plan...things like drinking lots of water, using full advantage of the fresh veggies I was allowed. It was easy to continue, because I felt satisfied and lost all craving-s while eating good nutritional food. I was surprised at how good my body felt...even right away. The aches, pains, headaches all stopped the first week. And I didn't even CRAVE!!!! That was amazing to me. The process was easy to maintain because I saw weight results right away too. Along with the good feeling of exercise, also a new life style, I was on my way. I was really encouraged by the assistance I had at my fingertips.
The people at EDEL'lite were so supportive and helped me adjust to the new tastes. We would toss around ideas on how to make the food work for me and how I live. What an exciting venture to continue to lose weight and see major differences in my clothes, and especially how I felt. My mind was so clear for the first time in many years. Now 93 lbs later, and over 45 inches gone, I do have a whole new life, I no longer stress over the former things I enjoy the new me. I have confidence that the same support I've experienced will continue to help me go on to the newest phase of using the maintenance. I can't tell you that the process was EASY, or without challenges, but I can say that the whole system in place was the best I've found. It gave me the tools to be successful!!!!
What are you weighting for????
