Inch Loss vs Weight Loss

Best Friend, Julie & I (60 mile team mate) & her brother.
Four years ago I lost 50 pounds.  I was so excited to go from a size 14-16 down to an 8-10!

About 6 months ago I decided I would like to lose another 10 pounds, so I started the complete system once again.  The weight didn't drop as quickly this time.  I am walking 20+ miles a week as I train for my 60 mile walk, following the plan, paying attention to what I am eating, yet I wasn't dropping any weight.  Frustration was beginning to set in.

About 2 weeks ago, the weight began dropping again, very gradually... but the BIG thing was my clothes & my husband.  The pants I bought a year ago are too big and fall off without a belt. In fact, it took me 5 different pairs of jeans in my closet to find one that would not fall off. Woo HOO!!!

The other night, my hubby looked at me and said, "you're arms are skinny." Woo Hoo again!  He's noticing a difference too!  While I'm not losing tons of weight, I am pulling weight out of the trunk, the doors, the seats and all those other areas, to make my HUMAN Engine a lean mean, fat burning machine!!!

A few of the extra benefits of this plan have been:

Healthy Human Engine!
  • Better Health, fewer pharmaceuticals for me
  • Supporting Local Entrepreneurs
  • Looking GREAT in swimwear
  • Increased energy to work, work out, & still have energy to spend with our child at night
  • Cravings disappeared
  • I am a model of a healthy lifestyle for my family
  • I won $500 in the Cinch success of the month club! https://cinchclub.com/success.html
I feel blessed to be able to share this system with others.
