I feel I am now living a dream. It wasn’t always that way. To get here many things had to happen; some in my control and others not. I had to recognize things I can control and those I can’t. I got married, seven years ago. I moved from my home and family to a new life and job. 5 1/2 years I found out I was pregnant. We were overjoyed. Unfortunately there were other plans. At twenty weeks I was hospitalized. This wasn’t the time to eat, nor diet. Our daughter was born at 28 weeks at 1lb 6oz. We prayed, cried and I ate. My priority was Rebecca. I grabbed food when I had time, the wrong food. My weight climbed. I never saw it happening. I took a good look at myself. I deserved to feel good about myself as a person, professional, wife and mother. 7 1/2 months ago I saw an ad for Diet Center. I went in wanting to do something, but skeptical. I decided to do the Thermogenic Program. I met with the most caring counselor. Through her encouragement and guidance I have lost 103 pounds and 107 inches. I am now a size 8. I no longer look at food as a panacea for dealing with life’s problems. I eat in order to survive. What life as in store for me, I will not use food as a crutch. Thank you Diet Center for helping me to change my life!
