Angie Seymour Lost 13 Pounds and 2 Sizes ~ “I was not even going to do this...it has totally changed my life. I am filled with joy!!”
“Twelve weeks ago I was introduced to Club FYM and to a program that is very doable.
It was the challenge that intrigued me and I had the time to enjoy it for the first 4 weeks. I was very consistent with my journal, exercising, planning meals, ect.
Then everything started to change. School started along with two other jobs and the busy life of being a parent. Along with the busy schedule, I started having stomach and knee issues but I continued to eat supportively for the most part.
Exercise has been sparse the last couple of months and I really could feel a difference with my mindset and energy level. That being said, I didn't feel like I ended this challenge the way that I had wanted to.
Then I was reminded that life does go on and we are going to have obstacles and ups and downs. This is why we are here trying to learn how to live a healthier and more positive lifestyle. We didn't get where we are in twelve weeks and I can't expect a miracle in 12 weeks. But I can expect results and that is what I got.
I will tell you many positive things came out of this challenge. I have learned how to eat healthy again and enjoy eating healthy. I am not starving myself with only being able to eat 1200 calories. This program is awesome and is very doable.
I have shared ideas with friends and families and told them of my success. I admit I haven't been on the forums as much I should and I can really feel a difference in my mindset with that as well.
Living and learning how to live a healthy and more positive lifestyle is like a recipe. You need all the ingredients for it to be a success.
When I subtracted exercise and support from my weight loss buddies it just didn't work out as planned.
I believe I had to go through this in order to see what works for me and what doesn't. And I know for a fact that this program works for me and each day is a new beginning of this lifetime journey.
I want to thank all my buddies and Holly for being so supportive! I look forward to our next challenge.

WOW..I am almost in tears ~ tears of joy and tears of sadness for almost missing out on this very important opportunity.
I was not going to do this.
I am simply amazed at this transformation. I almost missed out on this opportunity. I believe if I would of not finished this challenge the right way, I would of lost my way.
Now seeing these pictures side by side gives me great motivation to continue on with this healthy lifestyle. I know we are not supposed to say anything negative about ourselves but I was actually feeling that I was not worthy of completing this challenge.
This has totally changed my life. I am filled with joy!!”
