A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This is so exciting! I have lost at least a pound weekly and I am now 35 1/2 pounds lighter! This is now feeling easy because I feel so great. I feel like I have more and more energy all the time. I even "crave" going to the gym (a lot of the time). During the holiday I chose a few times when I ate a regular meal, over-ate, felt bloated...basically learned a very important lesson. I don't enjoy feeling "full" any longer. When I first started the program, I remember journally that I craved feeling "full". I think I have overcome that desire. I have come to a point where I eat every 2 - 3 hours naturally and I don't ever wake up hungry. I still love eating the protein bars. I don't miss many foods. I ate a potato chip and it tasted so salty that I didn't enjoy it. I doubt that Lays has changed their recipe so it must be that my taste buds are changing.

Overall, I feel incredibly blessed for the opportunity that Fountain of Youth has given me to change my life. The program works! And...there are aspects of the program that I need to improve on. This experience just gets better and better everyday.

That's awesome Cindee!! Of us females, you're doing the best! My weight loss is slowing despite being very strict about the diet; so now I wonder sometimes if I have either hit the dreaded plateau or maybe I am not eating enough and my body thinks it's famine time?? I have to ask the FOY at my next weigh in. I can't believe sometimes, our good fortune in being chosen for this gift. What a great new year it's going to be! Best wishes, Rita
