Guest guest Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 's Daily MessageTuesdayMay 16, 2006 LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE! When I hear how well you`re doing with losing weight, I just light up like a Christmas tree! And then, when I find out that I`ve helped you in some way, I feel proud as a peacock! Ruth A. from Wyoming writes, "I just want to get on the roof of my house and scream, `I love !` I started my new way of life last September, and I just hit my halfway mark. More than that, I am less than 200 pounds. I never thought it would happen! I am finally getting a handle on what to eat and when not to eat. No more emotional eating for me! Thank you, and you just never know. I may go outside and shout it yet!" You can just feel how excited Ruth is, can`t you? And we`re excited for you, too, Ruth. Just be very careful on the roof! I got this next email from a Club member. Lorri F. from Georgia tells me, "So far, I have lost 41 pounds, and I feel so great! I have 13 more pounds to go, and I know I will make it. One thing I have a lot of is support at home, and I have learned how to eat and how much to eat. I don`t even want greasy foods anymore. I`ve learned a lot about me while I have been on this journey. I have learned to live without sodas, which was a big deal for me. And I used to crave extra butter popcorn. That was hard to get over, but with God`s help, I got past it. I have gone down several sizes in clothes. My mother-in-law says I have a waist now! It feels great, and I have a lot more energy! If I get hungry, I get on the computer and go in the chat rooms and talk to other people who are going through the same thing I am going through, and that helps a lot! I`ve learned not to feed my emotions when I get upset. I take a walk or get moving in some way and do not go to the fridge. Thank you for your help and support!" Hey, Lorri, I know you`re going to get those 13 pounds off! You have changed your evil ways and created a new lifestyle for yourself, and that`s how you lost 41 pounds in the first place! I really have to go now. I have to tell the other peacocks these success stories, and I`ll have a few more for you tomorrow! Love, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
