What No One Tells You About Permanent Weight Loss

I am not saying this so you feel sorry or bad for me. I am sharing so you will understand my journey.

I hope that if you are feeling similarly, you will know that you are not alone.

I want to encourage you that there is a way out of this cycle and on to a different life full of energy and good feelings toward yourself. I was able to turn it around, and you can do it too.

Back then, I was eating loads of processed food in large volumes that were not good for my body, and my physique showed it. Getting take-out and fast food was a staple in those days. I rarely cooked for myself. When I did cook, it was just another version of the junk food I commonly bought.

I drank entirely too many sugary drinks, more soda than water. Frequently, I would visit my local barista and indulge in high-calorie coffee drinks. I was not making the best decisions for my body.

I took it for granted, forgetting it needed my body to last me a lifetime.

In addition to the poor food choices, I did not exercise. I rarely got off the sofa unless going to the refrigerator or pantry to get food, and then I would eat it in front of the television.

I kept going down this path until I received news that probably would not surprise you at one of my medical checkups. I had high cholesterol and high blood pressure and was borderline diabetic.

My primary care physician wanted to put me on medication to lower my cholesterol and another to lower my blood pressure. What!?! I wasn’t yet 30 years old. I am a nurse. By this time, I had also gotten my nurse practitioner certification. I knew better.

I had been educated on these conditions and how high body weight is directly related to their deterioration.

That is when I decided. I knew I needed to Get Healthy. In this case, getting healthy meant taking off some weight. I was determined not to be on medication due to my food and exercise choices.

In my quest to reduce my size and get my health back on track, I researched and tried every “diet” available. If someone suggested a quick fix, I was sure to attempt it. Unfortunately, I succumbed to every fad to lose weight.

I would lose some and gain it all back again, plus some.

This repeatedly happened as I searched for some method other people said was the solution to losing weight. I did not find anything that worked for me long-term. Most of these diet plans worked to take the weight off temporarily. Inevitably, I would regain all the weight back and a bit more.

First things first -

To get new results, you must first change what you are currently doing.

I know this sounds obvious: if you want to change, you must actually change.

Unfortunately, I temporarily tried to change my eating habits and I lost weight. Then I would go back to eating the way I was before I changed my eating habits, somehow expecting, or more appropriately, wishing I would Stay Healthy.

You cannot do what made you gain weight in the first place and hope to maintain your new figure..

In my Get Healthy Weight Loss System will show you my tips and tricks for eating sweets, snacking, going out, drinking alcohol, going to parties, and even enjoying the holidays while still keeping the weight off. It is possible, I have done it for years, and I do not feel deprived.

I still enjoy myself, food, drink, and how I look by implementing the Stay Healthy Method.

Ask yourself, what does life look like if you do nothing different?

Is that what you want for yourself?

Once you get accustomed to the changes you choose to make in your life, you can still enjoy food. The first step is to recognize that you need to make a change.
