I joined Thin & Healthy when I was 14 years old, the summer before 9th grade, because I really wanted to lose weight. I was a member of band and we had to do some marching, which made meuncomfortable because I would get out of breath easily. I was the "fat girl" in all of my classes and in my group of friends. I had very low self-esteem and thought that if I lost some weight, Iwould feel better about myself and would no longer be made fun of.
Before Thin & Healthy, I had dieted and tried a lot of different things that never worked or neverstuck. However, Thin & Healthy isn't a diet, it’s changing your life. Once you get over the initial shock of changing your habits, it just becomes natural. You don't feel cheated or like you aren'tallowed to eat what you want.
I would definitely recommend Thin & Healthy to others because it is do-able. A lot of weight lossprograms or diets seem unrealistic and you feel like you are giving so much up. With Thin&Healthy you are eating "normal" food. You don’t have to buy their food, you can go out to eatand make good choices, and you also have a lot of your old favorites to look forward to as you move through the phases.
In one year I lost 50 pounds. I become a lot more outgoing. I finally felt comfortable in my own skin and started to gain some self-esteem. I ate healthy, I exercised on a regular basis, and I hadself-confidence. My activity level skyrocketed and I was able to do a lot of things I couldn’t do before without getting out of breath. My relationships with close friends and family got strongerbecause they held my hand through the progression and were able to see how the positive changes affected my life. Overall, I was a much happier person after I lost weight.
