Love My DietBetter Family

Posted on August 4, 2014

I have to make a PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT!!! I LOVE MY DIETBETTER FAMILY!!! :-)

My life has changed!!! Joining DietBet was the best decision I could have ever made!!! When I signed up for my first challenge in May, 2014, I never thought I'd get the kind of emotional support & motivation that I've received from my fellow Dietbetters!!! You guys are the BEST!!! :-)

Before I started my first challenge, I wasn't motivated enough to want to stick to any diet, & I've tried them all: Atkins Diet, Lemonade Diet, HCG Diet, 3-Day Diet, 4-Day Diet, Medifast, All-Protein Diet, All-Vegetable Diet, etc. You name them; I've tried them!!! They all worked temporarily, but I'd end up gaining all the weight back & then some because I wasn't quite ready to change. NOW I'M READY!!!

After becoming a DietBetter, I've been inspired to WANT to finally reach my weight loss goal, & I've joined a wonderful group of people who motivate, inspire, & empower each other along the way. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL FEELING!!! We have such a great support system, & I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! When somebody's having a bad day, we lift them up!!! And when somebody's having a good day, we praise them!!! If it wasn't for you, I'd still be yo-yo dieting: losing weight just to gain it back & accomplishing what: NOTHING!!! I want to thank you all for giving me an opportunity to balance my mind, my body, & my spirit. You all keep me accountable, & for that I'm grateful. I thank GOD every day for having you all with me during my weight loss journey. :-)

WE ARE SURVIVORS, & WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT!!!!! :-)

Yes Irene!!! Your life will DEFINITELY CHANGE!!! We have such an amazing group of people who are here to accomplish the same goals, & we've all achieved that and more!!! Awesome friendships have been made, we're accomplishing goals we couldn't do before we lost the weight, & we've also changed our mindset when it comes to food!!! It's a beautiful thing!!! :-) Although I got sick a few months ago, had to take Prednisone for a couple of months, & gained all of my weight back, I'm here to lose that weight again. This is the best place to be because I know I'll get the kind of support I need, & my DietBetter family will help me stay accountable for my actions too. Girl, WE ARE IN THIS TO WIN IT!!! Good luck on your weight loss journey!!! Mamacita, WE GOT THIS!!! :-)

It will absolutely change Irene ?? surrounding yourself with like minded people is a great first step. And engaging and interacting gets you more committed. You can do it ????

Will do SaraSueSue!!! We always have a BLAST, & you'll love our group!!! I organize a challenge every month, & my current one ends 6/2 (final weigh-in - 6/3 & 6/4). I'll probably organize it around that time. I'll definitely let you know when. Have a wonderful Sunday!!! :-)

What an uplifting post! Thank you, Adrienne. Couldn't have said it better, I feel the same way about our wonderful DietBet Community. So much support and motivation here. Amazing how the inspiration of others can be such an uplifting tool to better health. Hope you are still doing well and living the healthy life. BTW WE LOVE YOU, TOO!!! :)

Awww!!! Thanks KP!!! We're in this together for the long haul, & I love the amazing support we all give to one another. Having great support makes the difference between success & failure. We can't help but succeed with all the wonderful people in our DietBet community!!! I made some amazing friendships since I joined DietBet, & I'm still doing well, PRAISE GOD!!! I've hit a few bumps in the road (intentionally - family events, travelling, etc), but I made a conscious decision to do it, & I don't have any regrets. I just recently returned from visiting my family in SC. My oldest sister passed away 3 years ago (2/7/12), & every year, we have a Celebration of Her Life Party to remember the wonderful times we shared with her before her homegoing. (She had lung cancer.) I ate, drank, & partied, & the evidence of the scale proved it!!! LOL!!! I had a great time!!! It's all good though cause now I'm back home & back on track. :-)

adrienne121

And you're welcome too!!! I'm FEELING THE LOVE!!! :-)
