15yr. old loosing the pounds!!
« on: April 27, 2011, 11:14:54 AM »
Hi all! I am just so thrilled! My 15yr. old has lost 11 pounds! We have all been on the F2S way of life, and everybody is dropping the weight! It took a little while to get the kids on board, but, like we've always said, if you don't buy it, you won't eat it!
We have just recently bought Dougs 3 other books! We are hooked on F2S now! It's so cool to see the 15yr. old excited to loose the weight! He has to wear a belt now for his jeans! He is thrilled! The law of the Nobles household is, my husband cooks ;D and I clean! Which I don't mind, because he's a much better cook! I am very excited to try all the new wonderful recipes in the books!
and to be perfectly honest, I believe my stomach is shrinking. Because I don't eat half as much as I used to, and I'm completly full! Funny how that works!
Just wanted to say thank you Doug for all the research you do! You rock!

Wow that is fantastic! Way to go! And the kiddo is okay with not eating bread? I am putting mine on it full time Monday and he freaking out because he won't get bread anymore.

Hey Sherri. It was like anything, a habbit, and he was bumbed when the husband announced, no more bread, but he finally started getting used to makeing sandwiches with gg bread or romaine lettuce leafs! Now, he's got a new better habbit! He doesn't seem to mind it. It's just changing their habbits. That was the hardest part, but finding out, us as parents have to make the change for them! Because if we didn't, they'd still be eating the same way. He still asks for the old stuff and we tell him no he can't have it, because he's diabetic, he gets aggrivated, but he's getting better! We as parents just can't cave into them.

I also forgot to add, I still feel bad when he asks for the bad stuff, and we tell him no, but then I have to tell myself that we're doing it to save his life, and if we give him his way, we are only hurting him and not helping him!

Hi snobles! :)

Kudos to you for taking the reigns in your son's discipline.
You ARE saving his life!... What could you do that's more important?
What you do today is what matters!

@ Joeagain. Yeah, the battle of the bread was the worst part! But they're used to it now. Good luck with yours!

If you'll make Izzet's bread, he can use that for sandwiches. It's really good for all kinds of sandwiches, grilled cheese, pb & J, meat sandwiches, even breakfast sandwiches or french toast! YUM YUM YUM
