Hi, my name is Kim and I was on the orginal Weight Loss Challege with Dr. Phil! I lost 65 pounds while on the program and still live by the keys (well, most of them!) I want to wish all of the new winners success in changing their lives and being healthy. I don't want to single out the people being supervised by the Dr. Phil team because they have a very strong support group. You people at home doing the challenge will need a team of your own to keep your motivation and stay on track. Write on the message boards, find a friend at your gym and meet regularly, find a personal trainer and by all means, CLEAN OUT YOUR HOUSE AND GET RID OF THE JUNK! That key makes the most sense to me and really works....you can't eat what is not there!
I am not going to lie to you all, I have put some weight back on but I can honestly say that I know how to get it off again and this program works when and ONLY when you make it a life style change. I will be working with you all to get about 20 pounds off again. I know what I did wrong and I have no one to blame but me for not working out! Anyone who was part of my message boards in the past knows I simply hate working out....never found it exciting like others did BUT, the fact is that it is KEY to getting fit and staying fit. It's not an option if you want to lose and keep the weight off.
So, everyone....HIt the gym, clean out your fridge and closets and get ready to start feeling and looking better! I have some wonderful memories of the Dr. Phil crew along with the other challengers....give it all you have because this opportunity does not come everyday!
