It never stops surprising me!
« on: August 17, 2011, 08:12:09 AM »
I don't know why people are so reluctant to try fat to skinny, they ask about it all day long, we give them the info. and still they refuse. It still surprises me though how much weight we are looseing, with absolutly NO excersize! I'm just amazed though! I've lost 21 pounds since June! Give me 3 more months, and I'll loose 21 more!

You go girl! I think people have to reach a point in their lives where they simply "decide" it's time for a change......you did and look where it's taking you ;)

@Doug and Umpa, yeah, I thik you're right. Most people are out there for a "quick" fix! and are never gonna get it! Trust me when I tell you, we ALL(but the husband of course:-)rebeled! LoL...Cause, I used to Love chips, and anything sweet! But at the time of rebellion:-) when I would try to drink like a coke or something, it tasted horrible! Like straight syrup, couldn't even taste the coke in it! The mind still plays tricks on me about wanting the "old stuff", but I believe, now I have enough will power to not do it! When I first started I weighed 240, and I really didn't think I was that much over weight, until...I started seeing the results for myself! I was only lying to myself! Thanks for opening my eyes! Even though I'm not diabetic, it's way better than any kind of "diet" out there!

Yep ... you have to want it.

Having said that, a friend of mine on Facebook just posted that she'd rather stick a fork in her eye than start another diet. I had to laugh at that one. If she stuck the fork in her eye more than she did her mouth, there'd be no problem! :D :D

Hi Stephanie! :)

I agree that no one will do anything about their weight until they decide to SERIOUSLY do it for themselves.

To some, this lifestyle might seems too good to be true.
And others might think they will have to give up all the foods they enjoy.

If they come to understand that it DOES work, and this lifestyle is all about replacement and not deprivation,
they should come around.
What you do today is what matters!

The problem I encounter with people is that they dont even try to give it a chance and then criticize it without experience...  >:(

 ::) What surprises me is those who say they only eat meat and salad!  They eat meat covered in gravy/breading and they pour on the high-carb salad dressings.  And fill their plate twice.  Eat fast and take huge bites and barely chewing.  They skip dessert at the dinner table and then sneak a piece of pie/cake when no-one's looking.   ???They drink a lot of wine too.  Also, they claim to be dieting at home, but eat whatever they want when they go out to a restaurant.  At 265 pounds  :o, how's that working for her/them???  ROFL  Some people just won't listen.  I don't even try to tell them.  They are my bosses.  So, I just keep on cooking all the old-fashioned foods they love and crave.  Keeps me a job.  LOL  ;D
