Connie
Connie is a young mom, whose weight has definitely impacted her life. She is ready to be healthy and energetic! Her story: “I have trouble doing activities with my two children. My 8 year old is a special needs child and I get very tired trying to keep up with her. My 10 year old is very aware of my size and is cautious about her weight. I do not look forward to weekends because my family wants to do something fun, and I find myself sitting out or not going.
I need to get healthy for my kids and for me. I want to be around to see them grow. Right now, I feel like I am on the outside of the world looking in.

You ROCK Connie. They need to take new pictures if you have lost 45lbs. You are doing so great and I am soooo proud of you. Enjoy the weekend but be aware of what is going in. Just cause it is a holiday, doesn’t mean you get a break from loosing weight. Nothing satisfies more than loosing weight after a holiday!! Keep up the wonderful work.
oh my goodness has it been 8 weeks…. my weight in was down 5.2lbs for a total of 45.5 POUNDS. So, ….people are really starting to notice, it’s kinda nice to be noticed for something good and healthy than being noticed for being to big. As i was reflecting on my week , I have to say I am starting to realize this “lifestyle change”. I hear people who say they need to “diet” and I’ll start atkins monday cause I’m going to “eat” this weekend. Or I started This program because……or that program………I need to lose……but I cant…….to hear and see that, I see myself and all the excuses I made and still make at times. changing, changing the way u eat, why u eat, what u eat. moving, exercising that I am STARTING to enjoy. I find it funny to say, I still though want to sit and do nothing. but if i do………we all know what will happen. Just look at my starting pic’s, thats what happens.
Till next week, have a great one.
And if I havent said it lately, Thank you Dr and the girls at the office.

Connie, I am so proud of you. Keep up the GREAT work. Before you know it, you will be down so many sizes, you will run out of your skinny clothes in your closet because you can’t imagine how thin you will become. I have many clothes for you. You beam every time I see you and I know what it is about because I have been there. I hope the trill of being more healthy and thinner never goes away. God Bless you my friend. Keep it up.
Thanks Kimi,
This week I shed 2 more now at 289. wootwoot. I poped my hip joint out last sunday from jogging. so I couldnt exercise, well jog. So I did some arm stuff and up to 60 crunches. I couldn do nothing.

You just keep doing what your doing, and you too will be a HOT MOMMA before too long!!!!!! SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!
you know, I was diving down U.S 19 and saw, the Dr. Lara’s bilbord sign. The next sign was about lipo. I thought wow, how extreme how sad and how helpful Dr. lara is. He’s not extreme on the body sucking out the internal life. lol. they do not help you re-learn how to treat and listen to your body, what it needs and to promote HEALTHY living, eating. I could go on. Thats who and what Dr. Lara and Debbie AND his office staff do.
I have had a few people tell me this week they noticed a difference. I have to say it was nice, BUT if I was doing this on my own i probably would have given up by now because I havent had a big enough change and would call myself a failure. I say this only cause those of us who are obese(as i say) are so mental and inernalize everything and are quick to stop and over-eat. Thats why i cant say Dr. Lara was genius getting Debbie on board.
Ok OK so this week I lost 3.4 # I was worried (I DONT KNOW WHY) so was like yea.
I have shed 34 lbs in 6 weeks woot woot.
You are doing great and I am so proud of you for running all ready. I didn’t start running until I lost much more. You have a wonderful goal and the gift that Dr. Lara has given us, none of us should take for granted. Take full advantage of the wonderful gift.
Contratulations on that hugh amount of weight you “shed” this week. Are you drinking the water? I find it hard to remember to eat the snacks when I should because I’m just not hungry, but it seems the more water I drink, the more I want. I didn’t drink much water while in New York City because I couldn’t be near a bathroom and it really showed on the scales this week. Keep up the good work….. you can do it.
WOW Connie!!!! That is FABULOUS…. See… YOU CAN do this!!!!!! STICK TO IT…….. You have a GOAL…. and you WILL GET THERE!!!! I am SO VERY PROUD OF YOU…..Keep it up!!!!!! NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS THIN FEELS!!!!!!! Don’t let SATAN get the best of you!!!!! You are a Child of God and He loves us and Commands us to Take Care of His Temple!!!!!! YOU ARE DOING THAT!!!!!!!
Well, I had a better week this week. Down 7.2lbs. starting jogging. Don’t have much to share this week. I was nervous weighing in, dont know why. IF YOU DO THE PROGRAM. ….If you have an off week you will get through it.
