Lost 50 to 100 pounds
Subtle Changes
"I didn't realize I was losing weight until I noticed my clothes were loose on me, even my shoes. I was becoming a new person."
Confident & Fit
"I didn't take the initiative to get healthy until my aunt underwent open-heart surgery and I realized I could be the next one on that operating table."
In Shape & In Place
"Taking it slow would not only be healthier for me, but would also ensure the weight would stay off for good."
Focusing on Fitness
"Writing down my fitness goals was the key to my success. Whenever I felt unmotivated to exercise, seeing my goals in writing inspired me to keep going."
100 Percent Committed
"Inspired by a friend who'd lost 30 pounds, I realized I, too, could lose my excess weight. For the first time, I was committed to something 100 percent."
A Healthy Road
"As the pounds came off. I saw the curves of my figure and had positive thoughts about my body for the first time in a long time."
Breathing Freely
"I lost two things I had focused much of my energy on - my job and my fiance - so I made losing weight the new focus of my life."
Fit and Free
"Once I realized it was my choice to remain trapped by my weight, I decided to free myself by simply applying movement to my life."
Total Body Balance
"I'm in better shape living with multiple sclerosis than when I was overweight at 240 pounds."
Just Right
"I found out that I have more energy and work out better when I exercise less."
Proper Mind Set
"I could easily lose an additional pound a week by walking three or four times a week."
Fit & Focused
"I realized I didn't want to spend an hour working out, only to push my progress back by eating a high-fat meal."
A New Start
"Weight loss required healthful eating and regular exercise. For the first time in my life, someone told me what to do."
Positive Direction
"After a month of healthy habits, my legs were more muscular and my face was thinner."
Setting New Priorities
"My new job required me to help others learn how to live healthfully, but how could I do that if I wasn't healthy myself?"
Day by Day
"I tracked my progress on a calendar, and a year later, I was 70 pounds lighter."
Breaking the cycle of dieting
"I kept a food journal and realized I often ate out of habit and I wasn't always hungry."
Healing Feelings
"Instead of turning to food, I manage my emotions by talking to family or friends."
Center of Attention
"Having to walk down the aisle with four other bridesmaids was incentive enough to start making changes."
Reality Check
"I realized I had to exercise if I wanted to lose weight; lowfat eating alone wasn't going to be enough."
