  • Hello everybody,

    Today marks my 8th week on this amazing program. I am so thrilled to share my numbers, at the same time, I am in a kind of denial that it cannot be true, that in a way I am dreaming.... But I am not

    So, here are my numbers:

    Weight: Minus 35 pounds
    Chest: Minus 2 inches
    Waist: Minus 3 inches
    Hips: Minus ... listen to that : 4 WHOLE INCHES !

    Pinch me, I think I am dreaming.

    I am so happy, I couldn't stop myself from posting this thread even though I still have a long way to go, I just wanted to take a moment and smell the roses.

    I hope everybody is doing as good on this program and I wish you all the best.

  • Congrats! I just had my 9 week weigh in and am down 28.4 so I'd have to say you are doing pretty great!
  • Go get 'em, girl!
  • Thank you for your words of encouragement

    I think you are doing well also

  • Isn't it amazing to find a plan that actually lives up to its promises?? Way to go!!

    I just had my 9th week weigh in and am down 28 3/4 pounds! Yep, it's a great program!
  • Great job! I'm at 8 weeks too and can't believe it either. Had I known it was possible to drop weight this quickly, I would have done it a long time ago!
  • Good for all of you. Sandra, you must notice a big difference in clothing size.

  • Woo hoo!!! Congratulations. It is gratifying to know if you stick to it, the weight will come off. I find myself getting impatient and just wanting to be done, but I really can't complain.

    Good work!
  • Great job! It takes a while for your though process to catch up to what your body is doing. I still can't believe it -- but, the before and after pictures are a reality check.

    Keep up the great work!

    Hello Pat,

    Effectively, I just started noticing with my clothing size a huge difference. I mean first I started putting a pin on the side of my pants, but then even with the pin, they were getting ridiculously big, so I am lucky since I kept all my old pants from way before 6 years ago (I would say 8 to 9 years ago, not quite sure, but I guess), I am much more than positive that it's over 6 years since I came to Canada in 2005 and since then I never fitted in them, never was able to wear them, just kept them in a bag in a corner of my closet, and now I do, and they fit perfectly .

    Even my tops are getting baggy, but for now, they will have to do, I cannot budget just yet for a new wardrobe since I am positive I will be losing more and more.

    Anyway, other than the clothes, I still don't have any new pictures of me taken yet. What I do have though is a picture of me that my sister-in-law posted from last Christmas and I look so big in this picture cause I do believe I was at my heaviest, so I guess by this coming Christmas, I will be posting my new pictures right next to it and by then I will be much more than positive that NO I am not dreaming

  • wow, that's so amazing!! Girl I only have three words for you: *clears throat for RuPaul voice*: YOU BETTER WORK!!!
