I just discovered the IOWL podcasts and started listening this week. I have started what seems like my 10,000th regime, lifestyle change...diet. Whatever you want to call it and when i get the weight off (again) - I want to maintain it, permanently. Last significant weight loss was yrs ago - i lost 40lbs on LA weight loss. Sadly, it has been creeping back on, and I have regained just over 1/2 of it. So i would love to join your group as I go through this journey again.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Hello , welcome ! I suggest you listen to all the podcasts a first time around, just to get the general idea, which you can begin to apply immediately, and then go back to zero giving your full attention to every podcast and taking the time to assimilate it completely before you get to the next. It's what i'm doing right now.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Welcome Therese! It's good to have you with us & thanks for the great introduction ... as well as congratulations on the first 15 libs - great job! Colleen ________________________________ To: " insideoutweightloss " <insideoutweightloss > Sent: Monday, July 25, 2011 6:46 AM Subject: New to the group  Hello everyone! I am new to this yahoo group and just wanted to say hello and give a brief synopsis of my story. I began this weight loss journey the end of May, 2011 after an appointment with a weight loss doctor. I need to lose over 100 pounds to be at a healthy weight. For the month of June, it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do (losing weight). It seemed like a constant struggle/constant battle with myself. I was losing weight just fine but was exhausted with the entire process. I'm a school psychologist and I remember learning in one of my health psychology courses in graduate school, the benefits of guided imagery. I randomly searched for podcasts for weight loss and guided imagery and came across the IOWL podcast. I started listening to it nightly about a month ago, and immediately was hooked! I truly believe this podcast has been instrumental in helping me with the weight loss process. It's a layer of support that I have discovered is so important! I have the weight loss doctor for support medically, great family and friends for support socially, the gym/working out for support physically, but I was missing the emotional/mental health support that the IOWL podcast provides! After listening to the podcast daily, I've noticed that there isn't a constant struggle/battle with myself anymore! I've let that that go completely! I'm not exhausted anymore, and am really enjoying going to the gym and working out. I've made a decision only to be weighed every 2 weeks when I go to the weight loss doctor. (I find that I start obsessing with the scale multiple times a day if I don't and it gets very discouraging). So far I've lost 15 pounds, but more importantly, I feel better than I've felt in my entire life (I'm 30). I'm hoping that by joining this yahoo group it will be yet another layer of support. Thanks for reading my story everyone! I'm excited to now be part of this yahoo group Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Welcome Therese! I too am in the same boat for losing 100lbs+. I started my journey in January 2010. I did not find IOWL until sometime in June 2010. It's exactly what I need to fill that mental/ psychological piece I am missing. I have been able to really self reflect alot about why I overeat. I also made peace with the fact that I will physically have a slower weight loss rate: I have hypothyroidism and physically my metabolism is slow! It will not stop me though! Currently I have lost close to 50lbs and have kept all of the weight off since I started over a year ago! Yeah for maintaining! I also am in my 30's- 32 to be exact and really wanted to let you know- I understand the struggle and frustration with having to lose so much weight. I would love to help each other along the way. I am also a professional- Registered Nurse and know that stress plays a huge part in weight loss. Welcome again- know that you are supported!

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Hi Theresa, Hi! Welcome to the group. Sounds like you are doing a fantastic job! Thank you for being there for people's kids. If I did your job, I'd have WAY more than 100 lbs to lose (seriously.. my heart breaking over things I can't control isn't an easy thing to settle.. food would help!).. I look forward to sharing your journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Therese, Welcome. I have been on vacation for the past few weeks and I am still playing away from home until mid August...Until then I will be relatively quiet. (Very limited email chances) I look forward to hearing about your journey.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Hiya! I am new to the group. I happend to come across one of 's pod casts when searching on loa and weight loss. I loved her message and the idea of inside out changes. I haven't had a chance yet to sign up for any the pod casts but plan to. Haven't done much reading about this either, other than hearing the one pod cast. But again, I like the concept! So just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I am someone who has been weight and food challenged all of my life and am working on turing it around and thinking of it as a blessing and a teacher. Some days I succeed, some days not lol. Anyroo, any suggestions for someone new to 's teachings? Thanks! Peace--Jenna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Hi Jenna and welcome! I would recommend going to www.personallifemedia.com and start at the beginning. You can right click over the links there and save them to your computer if you like. I would them recommend you take down notes of the important points you want to implement or remember. I'd also suggest that you give your time to digest each episode. I was so inspired by them that i raced through a whole lot. Now I'm at 50 or something and I'm going back to revise the beginning ones. If you or anyone else is interested, I'd love to have a little discussion about each one as we go through them and discuss what we got out of it.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Thank you for all of your comments. It is hard for me to reach out and discuss my flaws, but I am glad that I have. I think that it will help me finally end my constant battle with food. I am on to week 2 and I really liked this chapter. I found out that I am a giver, a perfectionist, and a fraud. I like the insight for sure, but I am also ready to heard about ways to fix the problems. > > I am also new to the group...actually I have been a member for almost 2 > weeks but this is the 1st time I have posted anything!
