JS's Weight Loss Story!

 When did you become unhappy with your weight?

A few years ago.

 What made you decide to lose weight?

I could not fit into airplane seats, restaurant booths and I had to buy clothes in "big mans" stores. I needed medicine for diabetes, hypertension and an arthritic knee. I had no stamina, aches and pains all the time and had low energy.

 What were the most important changes you made to lose weight?

Food portions, treadmill and weight lifting.

 What was most challenging about losing weight?

Not eating fast food on an almost daily basis.

 How long did it take you to start to see results?

1 week.

 How long did it take for you to reach your current weight?

400 days.

 How long have you maintained your weight loss and how do you do it?

I am still losing and my goal weight is 192 pounds.

 How has your life changed now that you've lost weight?

I now take less medicine, sleep better and buy clothes from the bargain rack at regular stores. I have much more energy, more sex and more self confidence.
