Successful Diet

Half-way through it

When I was in my twenties I used to weigh 110 lbs, I still have the time and energy to at least exercise (using video tape) every weekend. When I'm about to get married (5 months before) I enrolled myself in  Slimmer's World and had diet so I can look great on my wedding gown. A photo of me with my cousins before my wedding

And a photo of me on our wedding day June 2003

During my first pregnancy I weight 135 lbs up to my 9th month this was June 2004. Then I trimmed down to 120 lbs when my first baby had his 1st birthday. June 2005

And then I got this retrobulvar neuritis (where my right eye got blind) October 2006. I was confined in the hospital for 3 days to have steroids and to monitor my eye sight. Medication was for 3 months to totally recover. The effect of this steroids to me is that I never get tired, hungry or even get full. So I just work, work, eat and eat until I didn't noticed that I have a moon face.

This was during the medication period

I got pregnant again for my second baby and I gained a lot of weight compared to my 1st one from 135 lbs up to the 9th month for my 2nd I was 148 lbs.

Until I realized that I was already 152 lbs (and gaining). I have to start losing weight because of health, it's hard to stand up specially during mornings from bed. 2nd its hard to buy clothes because you have to look for the biggest size, as in a 2XL-3XL (regular clothing). Flashback on myself before I began my diet

I asked a co-worker at the office if she can share with me her diet and she willingly shared it with me. I started March 2012 with the weight of 152 lbs. clothes size of 2XL and waist of 34". At first it was really hard doing the diet, I mean you eat food that is weigh before cooking so masakit sa ulo on the 1st week. No rice, bread, sauces, you have to eat vegetables, fruit, chicken, fish and beef. Then in 2 months I lost 12 lbs
