Our Weightloss Story - Before & After Photos to Share!
I lost 90 pounds!
Then, I lost over 65 pounds.
Now, I have lost over
60 pounds & I am still losing!!
My husband, Robert, and I in September of 1999.
My weight has always fluctuated a few pounds, but it
stayed around 180lbs. Robert never made a fuss.
However, when he went away on business in late
September my sister, Summer,
introduced me to the Ultimate Weightloss Program. So, in October,
while he was gone, I started the program to surprise him when he returned
and, also, to prepare for our wedding in late November.
BEFORE - 185lbs
Robert and I in late November 1999, the week of our
wedding.
Was he happy with my weightloss?
Did I feel better about myself?
Let's just say, a little less than ten months later,
we were blessed with a bundle of joy!
AFTER - 165 lbs!
Over the holidays, I chowed down
and gained back most of what I had lost. So, during my pregnancy, I
continued my horrible habits and ate what I wanted and did absolutely
nothing - preferably indoors with the a/c at 65 degrees
(see my white skin!)
I was out of breath just moving and
found it much more enjoyable eating
(not sharing) entire batches of Nestlé's chocolate chip cookies.
He doesn't cook and I wasn't lifting a finger, so we ate out and ordered
in constantly.
In my ninth month I was over
225 lbs.
Us AFTER
(I know I look pregnant) I gave birth to our baby girl, Jordan, in September
2000.
(Both of us OVER 200 lbs)
over size 16
Jordan & I, on the left, after I lost enough weight to wear pre-pregnancy
overalls, busting at the seams (notice what I
like to call "the back fat").
Okay, please don't be too harsh in your
judgment. This not my worst and definitely not our best, but these
photos give you an idea of the changes you can make and proof that it works! We
didn't expect to be posting these on a website for all of the world to see.

Okay, so my husband is asking why my knee is bent in the photo after we had our
third child. I don't know! I guess it just feels prettier. ;)
Man!! I look so old matured. :)
Our photos must be pretty impressive because people are stealing them from our
site and adding them to their sites as success stories to sell their weight loss
drugs! Quite flattering, but SO not ethical!
We thank you for keeping us informed as you see our photos floating about in
cyberspace!
Before over 175 pounds & After about 135 lbs pounds -- Before about
215 pounds & After about 167 pounds
We worked really hard to cook healthy and eat right!
(he exercised for the both of us) He told me, "I am not going to
be a fat daddy" and he's not!
I am 5' 8.5"and weighing in at
135 lbs for the first time in my adult life in May
2002!!
Is that a little skin I see there?!
For the first time, I am able to wear that shirt
without my overalls to cover up an abundance of fat rolls!
Look at that tan! I finally have energy and
feel incredible!! I have acquired the nick-name "Skinny Minnie"!
Imagine that - someone actually thinks of me as
being skinny - Wow!
I wore over size 16 once I got out of my pregnancy
clothes & ended up having to buy a size 6 pair of Gap jeans because my
10's were way too large!! Then a lady at work gave me a cozy size 3
stylish hipsters and I looked hot! ;)
can wear size 3!
Our trio having dinner with friends in June 2002.
We learned a lot of things about ourselves
and nutrition which we apply to our everyday life.
I mentioned feeling out of breath when I moved.
After losing all of that weight, I remember literally running out to the
car for something and how great it felt. (I am starting to cry
thinking about it.) It's so amazing what bonds and emotional
constraints that extra weight can put on us!
Knowing how it feels to be looked at differently,
knowing how it feels
not to find clothes (that I would actually want to wear) in my size,
knowing how it feels
to be paranoid about what others think when you are starving and
contemplating about getting a second or third helping
and now... knowing what it
feels like to be healthy and not think about those things are just a few
of the reasons that I want to share our knowledge to help moms, like you,
meet your goals!
If you are serious about improving your health -
I am here!
I breastfed our first daughter until her second
birthday and am currently breastfeeding our 2nd daughter and our son and know the importance of it. I also know the importance
of a mother's mental and physical health, which is why we offer
breastfeeding safe, weight loss programs using our nutritional
products.
Our Support + Eating Lifestyle Change + Our
Nutritional Products = Successful, Healthy, Weight Loss
Diet Products + No Eating Lifestyle Change + No Support = Unhealthy, Weight Loss
& Weight Gain!
Baby #2
<-February 7th - 38 weeks pregnant
02-20-04: I weighed
206 lbs
Our daughter was born on 02-23-04.
UPDATE:
Once my maternity jeans
started falling off, I bought a pair of size 16 jeans. Shortly thereafter I was cinching up those jeans with my husband's
braided belt until he told me I needed a smaller size! What a wonderful
feeling!
08-26-04:
I can now wear a size 8
jeans and weigh in
at 149lbs & losing!
You just don't know how elated I am to be under 150!! :)
My FAVORITES: I enjoy the
C & C Protein Drink, the
Peanut Butter Protein Bars,
High-Protein Snack Drink Mixes and
High-Protein Soup!
My husband uses the Bulk & Muscle products amongst others for sports
nutrition and my daughter was forever drinking my protein drinks, so I got
her the Children's Nutritional Drink Mix and she loves it!
Baby #3
We really wanted to have at least one baby of each gender. My
husband's desire to have a son was strong and my desire to please him by giving
birth to his son was even stronger, so we
asked the Lord to bless us with the opportunity to raise another child.
I
weighed a little over 215 pounds.
My due date was 01/04/06 and I refused to be induced. I
still wanted to give birth naturally, with no drugs or medical intervention.
They estimated the baby's weight to be about 8 pounds and so, I was scheduled to
be induced at 42 weeks for safety.
I went into labor 2 days before and gave birth to an 11 pound baby boy
(Naturally) - Praise
God!
...so, ladies, my weight loss journey begins, yet, again...
Update 04/04/06: Our son will be 12 weeks old in just 2
days! Boy time flies! He is weighing in at 20 pounds (clothes on)
and wearing size 9 month baby clothes - breast milk does a body good! ;)
I stepped on the scale this morning and weigh 171, which
prompted me to try on some clothes that my 21-year-old sister-in-law gave me.
I was, undoubtedly, prepared to be depressed, but happily surprised when I
actually pulled a size 9 pair of low-rise, Unionbay jeans up and over my
thighs, zipped and buttoned them! No more maternity jeans! I
actually have a non-maternity t-shirt on with them! Glory to God & thank
you, Jesus! :)
Now, I just have to find a way to tuck in this belly roll
hanging over the top...
Am I alone or is anyone else experiencing this... After the
third baby, I have these loose belly and back fat rolls that are hanging on.
The rolls are SLOWLY getting smaller, but I just don't remember this flabby
stuff with the first two.
Hmpf - doesn't feel too sexy... why do fat rolls on a
baby = cute, but fat rolls on mommy... not-so-much
Here's to hearing success stories from you! Much Love
In Christ!
April 2007: Thank you for your inquiries on my progress! I have lost
all my baby weight and wanted to share this photo of my big baby boy, my
youngest daughter and myself on Resurrection Sunday!
December 2007: We pray that everyone has a wonderful 2008!
April 2008: Ladies, these babies grow so fast!! Enjoy every
minute `cause, before you know it a year has passed!
1 Passage John 3:16:
16"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who
believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
2 Passage Romans 10:9-10:
9. That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your
heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10. For it is with
your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that
you confess and are saved.
Special thanks to my sister for introducing us to this
life-changing program! (View Summer's Story)
