I lost more than 65 pounds

I joined Oconee Weight and Wellness in late January and in a little over 4 months have lost more than 65 pounds. Learning to watch my calorie intake and the types of calories is the goal along with keeping my appetite in control. When I started this program it was a struggle to walk a distance further than my driveway without feeling winded. I knew I needed to do something and this has been the right choice for me. I also knew I could not do it on my own. I had tried and just not succeeded.

I still have a good ways to go before I am at my goal but I have total confidence that I can do it.

I still have a good ways to go before I am at my goal but I have total confidence that I can do it. I believe the thing that has been the biggest help has been Allison & Sally at Oconee Weight and Wellness. They are so encouraging and actually cheer for me when I lose each week. Their support has been key! I think that is why every week I challenge myself to lose something. So far every week I have lost weight, never had a gain.

The weight loss I have had so far has changed my life and made me much more active and able to do the things I want to. I love to go and do but had gotten where I didn’t feel capable at times. My weight was starting to affect my life in a way that was making me a bit of a recluse. I used to worry when I was going somewhere that involved a lot of walking and standing because I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to do it. Now I don’t worry about that. Life is just better when you feel better. I look forward to getting the rest of my weight off and being able to do even more and more and more!

Thank you Oconee Weight & Wellness
