You know, I really started out at 207 lbs...so, so far I've lost 24 lbs. I dont' think in the beginning that I would actually loose this much! I was on Weight Watchers one time & lost 45 lbs in 5 month's time..but I was younger then, too! My husband is happy for me & I think my girls are impressed. I started out so large that I think that people are just now noticing that I'm loosing a little weight. I did good in the beginning & then was at a stand still...my fault. I started watching more what I ate (esp. portion sizes) & started exercising again. My girls & I like to exercise along with "Gilad". I really do have more energy & even tho' I haven't had trouble with high blood pressure it is about "normal" now. I plan to keep on & reach my goal ...even if it's a little at a time. It's nice seeing the numbers coming down on the scales plus my body changing due to the exercise, too. Gilad is more than exercise...it's body sculpting.

Gilad is a man's name. You can find him on Fitness TV (check the scheduling) or you can look him up on the internet. Put the name "Gilad" in Google & you'll find his official web site. I just tried it & it was the fourth choice from the top. We really like his workouts & it does produce results. I also have his quick fix system workout...I got it on VHS 'cause it's cheaper. He's based in Hawaii so his background is beautiful & there's such a variety of "stuff" to do. It does work the whole body. And at my age, if I can do it then anyone can...I may not do it just like they do (like kick as high, etc.) but I can do...that's the most important thing. Before I started loosing weight/exercising I could hardly bend one of my knees. My husband has been really impressed. So are my girls & I am beginning to feel a lot better about myself. When I look in the mirror & still think sometimes that I'm still big...well, I just say "I'm getting there"...I've come this far & there's no reason why I can't keep going. I refuse to get discouraged because it's not going faster...I'm just going to keep on keeping on. I'm starting to be in competition with myself now. I feels good to have more energy, my clothes getting looser, etc. I felt so out of control in a lot of areas in my life & this was only one of them...it's nice now that food does not have control of me. This self- control has helped me in other areas, too. We can get out of the "I don't care mentality" into "I do care". I was getting to the place to where I thought I'd always be "fat" & I could never find a starting point. But with the help of the Lord, here I am!
