What a difference

[suzlyn454]

In February 2005 I joined weight watchers at a total of 216.8 pounds.  I left weight watchers in January of 2008 (3 years).  I left at a weight of 177.4 for a total loss of 39.4 pounds.  That is a LONG time.  The best I ever weighed at weight watchers was 174.6.  

Thanks to FTS I have lost 23.5 pounds and am only 3 pounds shy of being under 180 (182 this week) and have lost this in only 4 (FOUR) months.  I am only 7.4 pounds from being back to 174.6 (the best I ever weighed at weight watchers).  I never reached "maintenance".  

The other difference, and the biggest difference, is that I am eating.  LOL.  EATING.  I am no longer hungry, don't feel deprived, starving, always thinking about food.  Yipeeee!!  

Thank You Doug and Umpa and all the wonderful forum members for the recipes, guidance, support and information to make this happen for me.  Again, thank you, TooSweet!

I could change my name to TooHappy!!!!

Hi Suz!

That's a real success story!

With FTS, you to eat delicious foods and not feel hungry or deprived.
This allows you to focus on other things in life other than "When and what will I eat again?".

As the weight peels off, you feel much better and really start enjoying life to it's fullest the way the Lord intended.

When I mentioned this post to my husband he reminded me that not only did it take me a lot longer to lose the weight with WW but also the weekly cost for those three years!  He said to be sure and factor in that you drove to the meetings too, so that was an extra cost for gas; and of course, the cost for buying their "low point" high carb, high sugar foods!  Yowsa, thanks for reminding me!

Been there, got the lifetime membership card and got really tired of being hungry all the time.

FTS is like finding Willy Wonka's golden ticket. Eat whatever you want just stay under 20 carbs a day and watch it all melt away. I just wish I would have had this lifestyle 20 years ago. I have tried everything from Jenny Craig to Atkins and could lose a bit but never keep it off. The fact that we can eat regular food and lots of it and STILL lose weight everyday is just amazing. I am so thankful for Doug, Umpa and FTS for changing my life. I even have a new year pass to Universal to ride coasters whenever I want!! WOO HOO!!
