As excited as we were for this day to get here, we are just a little sad that the end has arrived...or has it?
When I asked my husband what food he wanted to introduce first, he said, " I don't think I what to add any. I'm still losing weight, my blood pressure is down..."
I was amazed. This was coming from a fan of glazed donuts and take out Chinese. He had also just WOW'd me at our 1st Christmas Meal on the new foods. I took what we could enjoy and we watched as everybody else at the table nearly exploded after dinner.
When everyone started unbuttoning their pants, yawning and heading for the couches, we were wondering why we had done that to ourselves SO MANY TIMES in the past???
Did We Miss Out?
We don't think so. We did miss the homemade cookies and candies his Aunt makes but I think we missed the tradition of them, more than eating them.
We didn't miss out on our family an enjoyed sharing our journey and the results with them.
We created our own traditions this year. Traditions that will last beyond us.
What Were The Results?
I started the program at 174 and ended at 163.4, I lost 2 1/2 inches in my waist. I have my follow-up appointment with my local doctor for additional internal progress!
My husband lost started at 243 and ended at 227! While we did not take his measurements, his is down one size in pants and is wearing shirts that have not been on in years. His blood pressure is down and he also is having tests runs to show internal results.
We walk away from this program, thinner, healthier, happier & educated.
We have opted to continue what we have learned through a post-purification eating habits. We are taking steps to increase our exercise and are eager to share this with our friends and family.
