Just came across this picture while searching for a document in my computer that was taken before a special occasion and I cannot believe how much my face changed. I remember the one thing I wished I could change about myself was how much my weight reflected in my face and no NO camera angle could hide it. I HID from every single family photo which is why I had so few before pictures. Whats really terrible is my children are 10 and almost 8 and Bill and I are going on 12 years of marriage and we do not have ONE single family photo of us. We never took Christmas photos as a family or went in and paid to have a family portrait taken to hang up on the wall because I HATED how I looked and could not stand to see myself in pictures,especially when I felt I could not do anything about it. The good Lord knows I tried so many but couldnt stick to any. I also became a collector of every single TV diet out there, I had boxes and boxes from years of buying, Susan powder, Richard Simmons, Billy blanks, zumba melt, weight watchers, LA weight loss, Dr natura cleanses, slim fast, south beach, Dr phill and then some.... Many never even opened other than the first initial peak into the box and then feeling like ya I cant do that. Ive been dieting since I was a YOUNG teenager and Im 29 with 6 years experience now and STILL get excited every single time a box comes to my door with the name Advocare on it and it doesnt get shoved into the basement with all the rest, NOPE instead our family argues over who gets the last scoop of spark or the last mns packet. Advcoare has become a part of our life, our food choices are not always perfect but the day I said I will never diet again and just take each day each meal at a time and not hate myself if I eat to many bad choices was the day that I FINALLY made progress and saw results, because its in that mindset that your not in panic mode that you have to eat everything your not supposed to because there is no pressure from some CRASH DIET that you cant live on or stick to. I WANT to eat good because I FEEL good and my body tells me if Ive had too much junk food that hey clean that up will ya I dont feel as good. I just know that first order ever from advocare was for ME not so I could sell anything. I dint even know it would work! let alone think HOW my fat unhealthy unmotivated self could EVER fit in a health and wellness business, who would ever listen to me im a nobody, im no trainer or fitness model. My intentions then and today is ONLY to share what worked for ME, My husband, MY brother, My parents, My friends because the results KEEP coming in 10 folds and after it worked for me when nothing else ever did and it keeps working for this new person and that new family how can you NOT have belief in something and not share it with people who felt like I did and hide from the camera. I regret every..single..day that I dont have family photos of at least my children proudly hung on the wall like most houses Ive been in because their mom was too embarrassed to have ANY family photos done. If that is you let me help you change that so you can be apart of your family instead of hidden behind your family. And the best part is you DONT have to look like the fitness model or personal trainer to share what is helping you LIVE LIFE again, allowing you to PLAY with your kids, Or run a marathon, because this is about REAL people...everyday normal working busy people who were frustrated and had given up until someone offered to help them try what worked for them.
