Praise the Lord I'm now down 33.5 lbs! Thank you Jesus! If I can do it so can you! After fighting a hormone imbalance and low thyroid I tried everything under the sun to be thinner. The weight would not budge even with starvation! Ever been there? Well I read and studied many things and came up with idea if I ate 6 small meals a day it would stimulate my body to lose weight. I wanted to make sure I kept my caloric intake healthy but steady and I wanted to eat the foods I enjoy, Mexican, cereal etc. so I joined Weight Watchers. I really like their program and it keeps me eating what I like yet not going over my daily calories. I try to exercise 4 times per week, not always successfully but I'm trying! I also try to keep my sugar intake none to very low, I use Stevia whenever possible and I try to avoid Splenda and Aspartamine. Once in a while I have diet pudding or diet pop but I just try to eat lots of veggies and I live on these recipes. I have set a one year goal to stay with my eating plan so if I mess up no big deal...I'm going for a LIFESTYLE! I hope these are an encouragement to you and please write me and let me know how you are doing. garyandjulie@vorglobal.org We Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Us!
