Hi, my name is Sandra and before I get into how I lost 34 ponds in three months I want make one thing clear. I am not a dieting guru. I am just a mother of three kids and a wife who was tired of how I looked. I tried other dieting systems out there and even all of the popular ones too but nothing worked - until one day I found the perfect combination.
How I got my extra pounds in the first place
I work in an office as a payroll clerk. I am also a mother of three great kids. Speeding hours a day behind a desk then coming home to feed my family and get the kids ready for ed left me just exhausted. I was mentally drained and had no energy to work out. They say that 20 minuets a day, three times a week on a treadmill can do wanders for you - I could not even find the time to have 5 minuets of solitude for myself.
I used to weigh 132lbs. I wasnt supermodel skinny or anything, but I was pretty slim. After my first son was born, I gained about 10 lbs. After my third kid was born, I gained a total of 31lbs having my 3 kids and I just seemed to keep on climbing up the weight ladder after that.
When I saw one day that I was 163 pounds I was ashamed. I starting looking into diets and even tried all the most popular ones at the time. Nothing ever produced real results for me so I just gave up.
I stopped going out with friends after a while. I just felt ugly! I started eating more and more because I just didnt care. I was in a downward spiral. At my heaviest, I weighed 187lbs. Then I saw something on Oprah that changed my life. - 16463
