Why I Need a Transformation. 

Hi!  My name is Lauren and I am 34 years old.  A friend of mine showed me the advertisement for your 16 week challenge, and, let’s face it, anything to do with weight loss always interests me. 

I have always thought of myself as heavy.  Now when I look at photos taken of me in my early 20’s I can’t believe I used to think I was fat.  I constantly say to myself that I would give anything to look like that again. 

I am tired of making excuses for myself:  gaining too much weight in my pregnancies, having an under active thyroid, being too busy, etc. and so on.  These excuses don’t carry much weight anymore (pardon the pun) - my youngest child is five years old, my thyroid is now fine, and really - who isn’t busy?

Don’t get me wrong, I do try - really I do.  And I do lose weight.  I just don’t know why it keeps finding me.   

I really enjoy how I feel when I have lost weight - happier, more energetic, confident and younger.  I have  tried lots of diets and have come to the conclusion that they do all work - but only for a short time.   I need a really good program that will become a new way of life - not some fad diet that is unhealthy.  I also believe that a solid support team is extremely important - and with 49 other entrants going through the same thing, how much more support can you get?! 

I know that it won’t be easy - it never is.  I only know that I want to look and feel better.  I know I will never be 23 again, but that’s no reason why I shouldn’t be able to feel like I am.
