    One day shy of 19 weeks-Goal - 11/19/2008 8:26:00 AM

    My husband and I were watching the channel scroll and the 6wbmo infomercial was playing above it. I looked at him and said “Should I try it?” his answer “Well, you got to try something”.

    When I started this plan, I looked at it like so many others I tried and failed in the past. This was another “diet” to me. Now I know that this is THE plan for me. I’m not going to say that I didn’t have any off plan moments- I went on vacation twice and didn’t manage to stay on plan. I had an off plan beverage twice- by choice. I will say that otherwise, for the most part, I was on plan.

    Now after 18 weeks, I have reached my goal. That’s not to say that I’m done- as one of my friends in ACT II told me- “I’ll be working some version of this plan for the rest of my life.” Speaking of success- I cannot express enough gratitude and appreciation to my loser family in Act II. My husband and I believe that they were essential to my success.

    There are three quotes that really struck a cord with me and I will keep them in my heart and mind.

    #1 Work the plan and it will work for you.

    #2 Food is a choice, not a reward.

    #3 Extra food will go to waste, either on me or in the trash.

    So this part of my journey is over. I have lost 70 lbs, 54 inches off my body, 15% body fat and have taken my BMI from 40.9 to 27.9.

    I am so happy.

    Now on to Living Lean! J

    One day shy of 9 weeks at LL.

    I am down another 10#- 80 total on plan.

    another 9.75 inches smaller- total 63.75 lost

    another 6% body fat ( if I can believe my scale)- total 21% lost

    BMI down another 1.9 to 26.o (from 40.9)

    It just keeps working and working and workingBig Smile

    I second that WOOO WHOOO! 

    You are a great motivator for those of us still plugging along.  I know you will do fine in LL because you know what this program is all about, not diet, but lifestyle change.  You've made the change and now you can make it permanent. 

    A great big CONGRATULATIONS!!!Party!!!

    Katrina,

    You have no idea how much you just inspired me.  This is unreal... 

    I feel like I have to ask you for advice.  What are the most important things you have done or would have done differently?

    ps.  congratulations on your accomplishment!

    ps.  congratulations on your accomplishment!

    Sorry for being so late to respond, just noticed your post. Thanks for the kind words.

    The three things that mattered most on my journey.....

    #1 Have faith in the plan; work it as written and let your body respond as it will.

    #2Make time in your busy schedule for the cardio and sculpting. We all have ppl making demands on our time, we all get tired, but really dedicate that time to YOU.

    #3 Find a group that you can connect with and be honest with; post every day. My friends helped me understand things about myself and the way I was using food that I never would have figured out on my own.

    This is a very difficult journey and it doesn't end with goal. I know I can never go back to eating the way I was- I know what that leads to. But I am not allowing myself to get into that whirling vortex of despair " I can never have [insert ICK of choice} again" It's not true, I can have whatever I want- AS LONG AS I keep track of it and never allow food to rule me again.

    Are you up to the challenge? Can you put this energy into a new you?

    Best of luck!

    WOW!  Such an inspiration.  I have been struggling, going off and on plan for about a month.   I haven't given up though.  And I have learned you are only a failure when you give up.  Now after reading your story, I know it can be done.  I am reenergized and I am ready to dive in.  Congrats and thanks for the extra motivation!

    I can't believe this has been on here since November and I just found it today when I logged in.  Congratulations on your fantastic journey.  You have been an inspiration to me and a huge support when I wasn't able to support myself.  You are gracious and kind and your family at home is lucky to have you.  We at Act II are just as lucky!  Keep workin' it girl!  We can never go back!!  Hugs!!
