My 1 Month JUDDD Anniversary is in 7 days...

Meek75 · 12-08-2011, 11:23 AM

and I'm down 8.4 pounds thus far

Sometimes, I weigh daily, but I only record my weight on a weekly/monthly basis. I am down 4.8 pounds since last Thursday. I love this lifestyle and can't see myself dieting (or whatever) any other way. Although, I weigh more than I was earlier this year (faulty dieting), I have been very success with this plan and I see myself at goal this time next year. No more deprivation, obsessing or stress! I've been SET FREE!!

I'm a JUDDDer for life

SoHappy · 12-08-2011, 11:33 AM

Isn't it wonderful? I mean, every day for the rest of our life we will need to take care of ourselves. Part of that means eating well for our physical health, and eating well for our mental happiness too, and part of that means managing our body weight, also for our good health and happiness.

So if we're going to be doing these things forever anyway, why not be managing them on the JUDDD plan - which is more relaxed and at somewhat higher calorie levels in maintenance anyway - and just don't even worry about anything anymore. No food lists. No feeling left out at the Celebrations and Holidays. Just the routine of days that cycle higher and lower calories, eating whatever makes us feel great, that agrees with us the most, that includes those special recipes handed down in our own families...

And we just get on with our lives, completely able to relax and just know that JUDDD is now a habit, and one that will maintain us for the rest of our life. Whew! At long last! Thanks be!

Meek,

This is wonderful to read!

I'm so happy that you have finally found a WOE that you can live with for the duration. I truly believe your struggle is over!!!

I'm loving JUDDD for its simplicity and effectiveness. I really think that as time goes by, you will love JUDDD even more because of its flexibility and other health benefits it provides.

Just like you, JUDDD is a real winner!!

Beeb · 12-08-2011, 12:26 PM

Great Job!!!

Meek75 · 12-08-2011, 03:07 PM

My eye started to tear up as I read each of your post! For those of you who know me, know I have struggled since 2009 to lose weight. It has been an ongoing battle. I have tried soooo many diets and All I received was extra weight on my body. Gracie, I truly believe my struggle is over and I can now relax and rest... Its time that I focus on other things while my body gains strength from proper nutrition. No more little of this, or too much of that... I have found the balance I've longed for... I am so happy and grateful today. Not only because I am losing weight, but because I am finally over dieting and at peace!

Thank you all for the encouraging words and support
