Roxane_J, Age 43, 7DW Level 1- Introduction

[Roxane J]

Hi there HPS family, I just want to introduce myself...I am 43 years old, I have been wrestling my weight since puberty."13" I have yoyo dieted since puberty, trying every diet ever heard of. The lowest my cholestrol and weight have been in the past 5 years was when I walked 4-5 miles per day. Gosh! that is hard to keep up forever. I heard about cleansing from a person trainer at my gym and starting researching it on the web. I starting looking at the pictures and reading about HPS online and for weeks and weeks everytime I would get online I was drawn back to the website to read more! After my last Dr. visit when all the personal training and high protein dieting only lowered my chloestrol from 304 to 284 and my Dr. wanting me to take 40 mg of lipitor per day....I decided that this sounded much more beneficial to my weight and chlolestrol. I am now about 30 pounds overweight for my height and just miserable. I am a successful business women with 25 years experience in my field. I went back to college and got my BBA degree in 1994 while in a failing marriage with two children and a full time job. I have conquered many goal and fears in my life but my weight and health are my greatest failure it seems.....I constantly think about it and it uses up far to much of my time and energy. I hope that re-directing this energy into this program, I fine a new found freedom...I look forward to sharing in this group. Roxane J

Welcome Roxane!

You have come to the right place. This won't be easy or quick, but it will definately give you the tools to solve your weight problem.

I too am 43 and have had difficulty managing my weight. I decided that this year was going to be about my health as that was the one area of my life lagging behind. Since last November I have lost nearly 50lbs total. I am in the best shape I have been in for 25 years.

You too can see your physical problems disappear so long as you have a long term committment to vibrant health. I suggest that you forget about weight goals and concentrate on health goals instead. It will serve you best moving forward.

Love and light,

Hi Roxane,

Welcome to the group. You've come to the right place for both weight loss and cleansing. There are times when I lifted weights and ran hard every day, but didn't seem to get any thinner. After I went through the precleanse, I was thinner than I've been in a while. If you don't cheat too much in the precleanse, you'll see major differences too. Good luck and good health.

Welcome Roxanne!

I too, perused the HPS site for a while before I finally took the plunge for health reasons. I just finished my level 4 cleanse 2 weeks ago. You will be amazed at the difference cleansing will make in your life and the support of this group is wonderful.
Love and light,

Hi Roxane,

You've come to the right place. I always had a problem with my weight too. My problem was my diet. I've kept the weight off that I lost during my first cleanse.
We'll be at your side cheering you on as you go through the process. Good luck!

Best regards, Jorge
