Default Shock got me started!


Shock!! I got remarried just over two years ago......in July 2000.....I knew of course that I had put on more weight, up and above my normal high but I didn't realize how much........we all have a way of denying reality sometimes, don't we??
On a sunday I got my developed wedding photos back and I was devestated.........horrified at what I looked like.....how big I had become. I felt so different on the inside from what I looked like on the outside...........they just did not match in any way. I cried from humiliation, frustration, hopelessness.......*deep sigh*.....but it was a wake up call. The next day I started my new way of eating......I have pretty much stayed on the induction diet most of this time..........with several periods in between when I just lost control and went slightly insane as far as eating is concerned. I've been pretty strict with induction since March and have lost 51 lbs. since then.
All told I had 160 lbs to lose. It hasn't been easy much of the time but I know with all I am that it is the right WOE for me.............the only way. I wish you all every success~
