Sue, people don't have to be rich, nor do you have to buy into an expensive program. All you have to do is control your portion and walk. You don't have to join a gym to walk. And I don't mean strolling along to the point that it takes you 2 hours to walk 1/2 a mile either. If you seriously want to lose then put some power in your walk seriously. And if you think you have to have some help...SparkPeople.com is free.

Initially Jenny Craig is expensive. After you reach your goal the food discounted by 35% and is quite reasonable. It is then cheaper than buying groceries and cooking. No cooking?! Now that's a good deal!

Passion for success is as same as meeting your goal, or walking up to the person who you admire most and extend your arm and opening up your palm. Hi my name is 88888 and I admiremy work. would'nt you say that's triumph!!! would'nt you and the rest would agree!?? Success cannot be measured by the battles you won but what you gain in the succession of the war. engaging the front's and the battle could and might produce decisively empty victories. the out come of the field enduring as it is, might produced the greatest casualties or or non at all, manuever's and outplaying and downplaying all in the name of triumph!!! non would agree nor disagree such was the battle that it prolonged the war!!! who can judge for the outcome was indescisive., who can claim victory, if the fatalities are no lesser than great. may number's be judge?? who could fathom that the unthinkable was thought and the thinker's think.. for what has been proven prove's a lot. no such victories cannot be achieve without facing defeat. for the defeated was bested and the victories emptied and thus the vassal prove it's integrity, and the victor was victored and the triumphant laid in and thus Time had been the Judge for the goal was won and via split Time had won!!!

I think the world of Valerie, and Im thinking now that yes I CAN loose my extra weight too, she's a wonderful inspiration.. I would also value what she has to say, she's pretty wise.. To me she was always pretty overweight or not.. I think when you have personal issues like family, job or stress you do eat but once you start thinking of yourself and get the "i can do it" attitude you start getting in a routine and work on yourself then before you know it POOF you lost some weight and then your like ok I lost that much now lets see if I can loose a little more and little by little the weight comes off and you start feeling so much better about yourself.. I lost only 25lbs and got back into Levis again that was great..Then I Cut my hair and I would never do that but Hey I look great, Im dying to look better but hey its a start and its positive..

Hi I just wanted to say. Congrats, to everyone who has lost weight or is trying. It is very hard but, if you try you will succeed. i did not join any weight lose programs or clubs, I started Jan 1st and cut out the cola's ( that's the big problem) and switched to turkey products, more salads and veggies (hate them) and just watched my portion size and tried to stick with low fat. For snack I have sherbert or popcorn, pretzels. I walk every night, and started doing sit ups, and crunches, boy was this hard! (haven't done them since school (looooong time ago). And as of April 1st I am done 30 pounds! never thought it would happen. I feel so much better, and have more energy. Good luck to all!

It really bugs me when someone says that you have to be "rich" to afford Jenny Craig. That's looking for an excuse. Maybe you can't afford Jenny Craig...fine.....but last I looked the sidewalks you can run or walk on are FREE! Last I checked the ability to stop eating more than you need and start working out REGULARY is of your own FREE will. Excuses are just that -- if you really wanna change your weight and look you can do it.

eat 5 small meals a day
exercise
no junk food
include your friends and family
in time , you will be down to your size
dont forget your fruits and veggie too
drink water that's the magic
its all about control
some gyms you can pay by the day $5.00 - $10.00
without joining .
Jenny Craig is there to make $$$$$$$$$$
that applies to any business ................
justmeApr 17th 2008 3:12PM

justmeApr 17th 2008 3:13PM

Eating Healthy is Expensive.... I have been struggling with my weight since a very young age...I have tried many diet pills and was unsuccessful until Metabolite with Ephedra..I could literally kick myself in the ass for not buying a truck full.. However Now there is this Diet Pill called Alli and it truly works faster results than Metabolite... My friend so far lost 30 pounds within 2months..and it still is off, To me that is a lot.. I cannot afford Jenny Craig or Curve or any other Healthy Weight Place that works with meal plans.. However I have found that on Alli I can eat whatever I want and loose weight... So Thank You to the People who made Alli and I wish that Metabolite with Ephedra would come back out..

what do you do Valerie when your not rich and can't afford to spend money on Jenny Craig or any other expensive weight loss program?
tonyApr 23rd 2008 1:32PM
this is very simple.....GET UP AND EXCERCISE!!!!!! There is no excuse period.....all you have to do is eat 500 less calories and do some sort of cardio an hour a day 4 to 5 days a week and you will drop 1 pound a week........

lori swopeJan 20th 2008 6:25AM

colindaJan 20th 2008 6:31AM

Food is like any other addiction-We need recovery
to maintain- its a process that requires prayer, support, evaluations & action. Why do we over eat? We may it road blocks even after we have met our goal weight- it needs to be a life style-
Again why do we over eat or binge? Failures of the past? Deniel of the present? Fear of the future? We need to celebrate our recovery & work through the garbage so we do not relapse.
ShirleyJan 20th 2008 6:40AM
Who says you can't eat out. I eat out almost everyday and I lost over a 100 lbs. on WW's and I'm still maintaining it after three years. It's not easy, nothing ever is...It's hard work, but it can be worth it to keep ugle things like diabetes under control..not to menetion insurance rates!
