I'm married with no kids but I do have two beagles which are what I consider "my boys".
My husband of over 25 years is a chef and my best friend. He is as supportive and encouraging as any girl could want.
Started the Freshstart Cleanse in August 2012 and continued a tight regimen for 2 years in which I dropped over 80lbs.
Over the last 2 years I've slipped back into old habits and have put 60 lbs back on. I don't like it. I need the support of like minded people to help me modify all those bad habits I've begun again. I love the communities here on PEERtrainer.
On Monday 04/25/2016 I'm starting the Cleanse protocol again. Long work days make exercise a difficult thing to begin again but I'm starting that process today as soon as I've "declared my intentions". There's nothing like accountability to keep me on track.
So here goes...
Peertrainer was a life saver for me. I know I can do it again as long as I stay focused and keep my eye on the goal.

I'm a 46 yearl old wife and mom. It is time to make a change. I'm tired of my stomach dictating what I can and can't do.

I am a 39 yr old teacher/wife/mother of 2 boys looking to shed 30lbs and feel better physically. I have struggled with my weight my whole life. Starting on the right track and then feeling too confident of my accomplishments and then slipping back into old habits. Growing up in the south and loving to bake and cook so that it tastes good is a challenge. I use to be really knowledgeable about nutrition and the how to's. I have felt out of the loop for so long it is overwhelming to even start. To look at me you would never know that I have run 2 Half-Marathons.

I am a 50 year old Wife, Mother, Registered Nurse and Wheaten Terrier lover. I have a fit energetic mentality being hidden somewhere again waiting to be let out. I have the knowledge of how to; but lack the consistency with any weight loss...I have the all or nothing mentality that has gotten me no where. I didn't get the best of my family genes and want to break the cycle.

Hi I am a 46 year old mother of a 5 year old and currently a education director for a NGO. I lost weight 3 years ago and became really fit but then broke a rib and gave up...literally gave up. I did a boot camp last year and completed it but was horrified at myselff. Now, a year later, heavier and out of shape more than ever, I went to the doctor in Feb 21012 and he prescribed 7 meds, lifelong for COPD, asma, etc. So, I chucked the meds in March 2013 and started a 30 day juice fast to kick my health back in! Goal accomplished!
OH yes, and even as a Librarian and lifelong teacher, I am horrib-le typist, sorry.
I get really motivated and then as soon as I start seeing results or start feeling better I tend to sabotage myself.(Point in fact, right after my blood tests and clear lungs, I stopped my juice fast..and ate EVERYTHING again!) I do well with mini goals and support AND accountability. When I was working with a trainer threee years ago and at my best physically in ten years, I used to receive daily and often hourly texts from him and it was enough to keep me going. Although guilt is my biggest motivator and I hope to get to a place where JOY replaces the guilt,
Still working on the guilt and the feeling of entitlement!

I am 44, sit way too much at work. I have lost 24 pounds since August following JJs plan and HCG drops off and on. I have once again hit a plateau, so thought this cleanse could help me move forward.
|
I'm an RN, working nights in the emergency room. I'm also a single mother to an amazing 14 yr old, who keeps me pretty busy. Since changing to nightshift I have slowly gained 35 pounds. Due to a work related injury and a car accident, I recently had my second back surgery. I used to be an avid martial artist and loved a good workout more than just about anything. Unfortunately, I will probably never be able to exercise that vigorously again. I'm now struggling with my weight, and all my old tricks just don't work anymore.

OLD ABOUT ME (KEEPING IT FOR MEMORY JOGGING)
My name is Melissa and I am very unhappy with my appearance! I am currently at my heaviest (i have ALWAYS been super skinny ..until college hit) I go into phases..i'll want to be thin and lose weight but I go about it wrong. I over-do it and excercise like a crazy person. then i end up getting sore and burnt out. I went from wanting to lose 10 pounds, to gaining 20! All because I hate working out and I have no motivation to work out because I think it's painful. REALLY painful. I want to start over and begin a NEW healthier LIFESTYLE....not diet.
