My Story

I was always the fat kid. I was picked on and bullied because of my weight. I was slapped, kicked, punched pushed, even spit on because of my weight. All that started the dieting since I was 11 years old. When I went away for college, things got worse. I wasn't living in dorms, but I never had time to cook and would buy lots of junk because I could. My sister wanted to join Weight Watchers right after Christmas and wanted someone to go with her for support. I wasn't go to join, but I loved it. Everyone was so supported and I decided to join the next week. I was 238.6 when I got weighed in that first week and following the program to try it out, I lost 8 lbs. I thought the program was easy. I learned how to eat right and what were the right portions. I thought being a vegetarian, following a program would be hard for me. A lot of diets out there say high protein and low carbs and I can't do that. The points program was so easy for me to follow. I was still able to eat what I wanted and lose weight. I couldn't believe I found a program that worked and that I could stick too. It was so easy to follow. It was a long haul, but I finally reached life time in the summer of 2009. It's been tough, but I finally did it. And I'm not looking back!
