Life with 6WBMO Last year during the holiday I was a very lonely sad individual who was at my low point. I was married to a wonderful man who loves me despite my ever increasing weight, I had a beautiful daughter who loved me even though I had to be an embarrassment to her. I had a loving family and friends. I had a job in which I excelled at and a home and possessions. But none of those things made me happy with who I was. I did not like myself and to be truthful I did not love myself. I was an embarassment to myself. I could not control my weight though I tried very hard to do so. I was sitting on the couch one saturday afternoon, still in my PJ's, to lazy to get dressed. I was flipping through the channels on TV, not planning to do anything that day. When I paused on the Michael Thurmons 6 Week Body Makeover. He said many things that made sense to me, I thought to myself "what do I have to lose--besides the weight" It was a win win situation. I either lost the weight or I get to try it no risk with a money back guarantee. There was no way to lose. So I asked my husband what he thought and he said to go ahead and try it. I recieved my plan just after the new year and started on 1-7-02 --which will go down in my personal history as the first day of the rest of my life. I had quit wearing a seat belt, I didn't care about me any longer so why protect myself. I had quit caring about how I looked. Clothes were hard to find that fit or looked good. I had had to get my first pairs of 28, recently had popped over the 300 mark on the scale at a all time high of 305. I hated myself and it showed. Within the first 3 days I had lost 7 pounds by the end of week 1 I had lost 15 pounds! Week two I had lost 5 more! I lost 5 pound every week for first 15 weeks then it was 2.5 for 2 weeks then 5 for 2 weeks. Until closer to goal when I averaged 2.5 for the last month or so. When September 7 rolled around I had 2.5 pounds to lose to make GOAL. I did not lose it, I was bummed I told my husband that if I started on the 7th I should be able to finish the 7th before it was 8 monthes. So I really focused that day I walked and ate right on track. The next morning I got on the scale and I HAD LOST THE LAST 2.5 Pounds! I screamed grabbed the scale and ran out the living room were my husband was snoozing on the couch, I woke him up and showed him the scale, then I ran to my daughters room and showed her the scale! --They decided later that day I had lost my mnd--they were sure of it. They are very proud of me, and very happy for me. Best of All I am proud of me and I am starting to like me--maybe even love me. Compliments are still hard to accept, but I will get there, 31 years of thinking bad about ones self does not go away over night. It is something I am working on. 8 monthes ago life was pretty dark and lonely. I was 157 pounds heavier, 120.5 inches bigger wearing a size 28 now I am 148 pounds,and wear a size 8. Today Life couldn't be better! I am learning to love myself, I am still striving to be who I aspire to be, but best of all I am no longer a embarassment to myself or those I love. the Michael Thurmons 6 week Body Makeover did this for me and it can do it for you TOO!
