Hi, my name is Sandra and before I get into how I lost 34 ponds in three months I want make one thing clear. I am not a dieting guru. I am just a mother of three kids and a wife who was tired of how I looked. I tried other dieting systems out there and even all of the popular ones too but nothing worked - until one day I found the perfect combination.
Like so many other women - life caused me to gain weight.
Many people think that heavy people get that way because theyre lazy. Truth is, many woman, just like me, gain extra weight because of life. Having kids and working behind a desk all day can sure take its toll on you after so many years. Who wants to come home after a full day of work, put the kids to sleep, and jump straight on the treadmill? Not me, thats for sure.
When I was young I use to weigh 132 pounds. I didn't have a models body or anything but I sure liked how I looked. So did my husband (boyfriend back then). I gained 10 pounds after my first child was born and after my third I gained a total of 31 pounds. The years after that I would see about another 20 or so more pounds put into my tummy.
When I saw one day that I was 163 pounds I was ashamed. I starting looking into diets and even tried all the most popular ones at the time. Nothing ever produced real results for me so I just gave up.
I don't think my girlfriends even fully understood why I stopped going out with them to public places. I hated how I looked and hated how I felt even more. I did stop dieting because there seemed to be nothing that could work. At my heaviest I was 187 pounds and then I seem a TV show that changed my life. - 15995
