In 2012 I had done like everyone else and made a resolution to lose weight. January of 2012 I was at my heaviest I had ever been in my life. At that moment I began a lifestyle change. I began by eating out less. I only went out to eat twice a month with my family and only when I absolutely had to with work. Then I slowly weaned myself off of sodas. I was drinking one soda a day. Then I subtracted one a week until I was not drinking a single soda. I also figured out it doesn't matter what kind of sugar you have. Your body processes the fake stuff the same as the real deal. I increased my water intake and there ya go. From January to May I was so proud at how well I was doing with my lifestyle change. Except I didn't have energy to do physical activities when I was home. I was still wanting to take naps after lunch. Well I got on the scale in January and then again in May. WOW! I lost 5 pounds. WHAT!!!!! 5 pounds. Well during that time my niece Kristen was also working on her resolution to lose weight and in the same amount of time she lost 40 pounds. I had a consultation with her when the kids got out of school. Kristen introduced me to Plexus Products. I was hooked on the idea that this product has all natural ingredients and is not necessarily a diet product. It has vitamins and minerals that give you the energy to move. A side effect of the product was weight loss. So I made my first order the first week of June and began my Plexus regimen. Well this is how Plexus worked for me. I lost a few pounds and then nothing. I felt my pants were loose. I thought nothing of it. Then I started to lose a few more pounds. Then nothing. I felt disgusted. One day I was walking up the stairs while holding something and my pants fell down. I said darn these damn things are all stretched out and need to be thrown away. Well the next week or two this kept happening. I went to look in the closet and I had no more pants. Oh my gosh, it hit me! I'm losing inches. The fat was melting away. Then the weight began to come off some more. Up until November 2012 I lost 39 pounds. Yea a pound or two a week and it added up to 39 pounds. Well I am so excited about my weight loss that I want more, a lot more! So on January 3, 2013 I was fixing my bath water that morning and saw on facebook a poll question for Channel 5 News. The first person to answer the question correctly would win this book "Seven Years Younger". Guess who won? Yea me! I went to the TV station to pick up the book. Crystal Whitman meet me in the loby and began a conversation with me about her wanting to get physical and follow the book. We began texting and messaging each other. Crystal put an idea in my head for the both of us to join the local gym. I thought about it and with encouragement from friends I enrolled at the "Louisiana Athletic Club" on January 28th. Well this is where my real challenge will begin. Oh what a ride it will be. Crystal I'm starting without you!!!
