Question

What did everyone cut out of change to get the Weight loss started ? I need to see a change in order to keep it going. I give up to easily without results  

Answer 1

Walking into the grocery store and seeing all the over processed and un necessary hyped up packaging to sell sugar and carbs. was very very eye opening once I understood what I was eating. My tastes changed drastically. and I grew up loving Captain Crunch, chips, chocolate and pasta. Grateful to WW and my sis, friends, and coaches who re educated me. It’s a life changer and a life saver. First time in my life I have EVER been in control of MY body. We live in vessels that actually respond to us, our lives and our choices.
