Hello Ladies and Gents!!!!

Today is my ONE MONTH Anniversary of Starting MF.....I have to say that I have never kept with a diet this long and NOT CHEATED!

I have learned a lot about myself this last month and had a lot of AH HA moments. I FINALLY learned with 'real' portion sizes look like. I realized that I don't have to be gut-busting FULL to be 'full'. I have a lot more energy. I feel 100% better about myself than I did 1 month ago today. That I really CAN stick with a program and change my eating habits. I don't have acid reflux any longer. My sleep apnea is MUCH better and I am not 'exhausted' all the time. Old clothes that were too small are FITTING! I have also 'observed' more what and how thin or thinner than me people eat - EYE OPENING!

My husband started with me (somewhat reluctantly) but he has lost a CONSIDERABLE about of weight - we guestimate about 25 to 30 lbs, he's going to go to the doctor to weigh himself.

God Bless all of you on this Forum, you have really helped me and I can't wait to loose even more weight.

[b]THANK YOU EVERYONE![/b]
HAVE A FABULOUS DAY!
........Mara

Congratulations Mara!!!! :woohoo:

I know how hard that is and you should be proud of yourself.

I'm about 5 weeks into my restart and had a "pause" in my program because I was sick, but I'm back on now. Thanks for sharing what you learned this month. With one solid month behind you, you've created some good momentum, and this next month should be easier to get through. Together we all go....onward and downward! :stroll:

Hi Mara,
I'm SO proud of you! You stuck with it for a month! I also had never gone more than a week or two without cheating EVER! I am so happy for you for that!

Glad your husband is doing really well as well!

Stick with it, you'll be at your goal in no time!

I think that's just WONDERFUL!
