Just checking in
« on: April 24, 2012, 09:49:44 AM »
Hi everyone!  I haven't posted in a couple of weeks.  I've been away from home for the last week.  Just wanted to report that I was able to maintain my new lifestyle and came home a pound lighter!!  So exciting.  Also, I've lost about 13 inches overall.  I had to buy a size smaller in clothing before I went on my trip!!!  This was so exciting....you truly do melt away!

My husband is down a total of 20 pounds now and I'm down 11 total.  It's going way slower for me than it is him.  He looks so good and he's feeling great!!!

Two of my friends that I went on vacation with bought the FTS book and will be checking out the website.

Thanks again Doug, I will be forever grateful to you!

Sandy

Wow, Sandy.  What great news!  Welcome back.

That husband-losing-faster thing is a bummer but a fact of life.  I see FTS potlucks in your future.  Lifestyle evangelism, show them by example. 

Congratulations!

I'm so happy for you guys too, Sandy!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

On average, men do lose quicker than women due to testosterone levels being much higher.
That hormone cause the metabolism to burn FAT faster for quicker energy.

But one thing men have in common with most women, when we reach those last 10-20 pounds, they go away very slowly.

Do you suppose that slow finish is a big question?  Are you sure this is what you really want!?!

Naw!... I think FAT can be just plain mean and stubborn!
We must be more stubborn than it... Then WE win! ;D
