 I have lost 135 pounds through the Weigh Down Workshop, and it has been off now for over 9 years! I started dieting when I was 12 years old and spent 20 years trying every new diet that came out. I would never lose much on any diet, and would always gain back the weight PLUS some once I went off the diet. After 20 years of dieting roller coasters, I was severely obese, sick of myself, and sick of dieting. I felt like a complete failure, and I was at the end of my rope. I finally prayed for God to either show me how to finally lose the weight -- or for Him to help me learn how to be “happy” in my obesity. That same week I was introduced to Weigh Down! My hope was quickly restored as I watched that first orientation video and saw all the people on there talking about losing weight eating REAL foods - without dieting! I just new this was going to be different! It was -- that first week in the program, I lost 7 pounds! I lost weight consistently every week – eating real foods – and within the first 12 week class I lost 38 pounds, and a total of 135 pounds that has been off for over 9 years now!
The endless dieting has ENDED, and I have been SET FREE from the slavery of overweight and of dieting – permanently! I get to eat real foods every day, and I do not have to put my body through harsh regular exercise regimes to maintain my weight! Also, I had suffered for years from symptoms of hypoglycemia/borderline diabetes and high blood pressure, but now I am healed of both! In fact, my hypoglycemic symptoms all went away that first week of class. I also used to have continual back and joint pain, was very depressed, was angry at everyone around me, and had zero energy – all because of the excess weight on my body. Now, I am pain free, happy and energetic – without anti-depressants or a sundry of vitamin supplements! My marriage is healed, and our finances have been restored (coming out of much debt) because of this program – as we have learned to put into practice all the principles of Weigh Down into our every day lives. It is so fun living a life that is centered now on God and off of food! I praise God for answering my prayer by bringing Weigh Down into my life. I am a completely changed person on the outside AND the inside, because of this program!
