Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 's Daily MessageMondayMay 22, 2006 GAINED WEIGHT BACK? "Dear : I used to be one of your success stories. I saw you on TV and got motivated to finally do something about my weight. I used my FoodMover to plan all of my meals and worked out to your videos daily. I lost 100 pounds! I was so excited, I went out and bought myself a whole new wardrobe. My husband even threw a big party to celebrate my weight-loss. Everyone there told me how fantastic I looked. Lots of my neighbors even wanted me to help them lose weight. I never felt better in my life! Now the bad news. I have gained back 88 of the 100 I`d lost. Everyone has politely ignored my weight gain but I am so ashamed of myself. Am I the only success story who has let you down? Are you ashamed of me? "------------------------------------- "Dear : Well, first off, congratulations on losing 100 pounds in the first place. You said that you let "me" down with the weight you gained back. No, . You let YOU down. Some of your emotions obviously took the place of your motivation. What happened? Were you depressed about something? Did something at work upset you? Something at home? Did you have a fight with someone? Or were you just generally feeling down? , the first step for you is to figure out what hurt you so much to gain back those 88 pounds. I know three things about you. 1. You are not following the FoodMover and planning your meals anymore. 2. You are not working out to my tapes like you used to. 3. You have lost belief in yourself. You know one thing for sure though, . You were successful at losing 100 pounds. That is one great feat. Now you have to know that you can lose those 88 pounds again and for good this time. All you have to do is get back on the program. And I`m asking you to get back today, this Monday. Get those measuring cups and spoons back out. Open the windows of your FoodMover and start working out with me again. Don`t tell anyone but your family that you are doing this. Go to your closet and take another look at all the clothes you`ll fit into again. Don`t be afraid of the scale because the numbers on it will go down, just like they did before. You CAN do it, . I believe in you. Love, ------------------------------------- And for those of you are reading this who have also gained weight back, I want you to join today getting to work making your own regained pounds go away!
