Ok Sandi I got a problem here… I don’t want to hit the ‘like’ button….I’m looking for the LOVE IT button🙂
WOOOOO YOU!!! What a way to rock the Dukan, rock the Dukan. Total weight loss of 90.4# AMAZING. I never doubted you would get there and feel a real sense of joy for you as well as awe for the blessing of watching it happen right before my very eyes. Not some smoke and mirrors before/after pic trying to sell snake oil. I am SO proud of you🙂 So doubt the C25K was instrumental in your acheiving this goal as well… What a powerful reminder to us all that where we put our attention makes ALL the difference!
XOXO

Elle
Thanks, Elle🙂 Sharing the journey has been a big part of the success!
Great job! My weight loss seems to have slowed down although I haven’t cheated. My only thought is the exercise piece. I have but not as much or as intensely as I think I should be. You seem to exercise a lot and lose pretty much every day and that’s definitely what I am looking for.
Hi Sherri! I do all the MUSTS everyday…
You MUST weigh yourself everyday
You MUST drink a minimum of 1.5 liters of water each day (the more you drink, the more you lose)
You MUST exercise, even just walk for 30 minutes a day
You MUST take 2 Tbs of bran per day
I find if you leave out just one of the MUSTS it throws everything off.
I bet if you just made sure you get a 30 minute walk in each day, the weight would slide off!
Thank you so much. You are an inspiration to me.
Fantastic – there is nothing you can’t do!
Thank you😀 I am feeling pretty invincible right now. I’ll be back to earth in a few days🙂
Congratulations!!!
Thanks, Susan!🙂
AWESOME news!!!
