What are your top 3 benefits you have noticed?

[eclectikat]

lots of reasons as stated... for me

1) freedom of movement...I can bend and kneel and reach so muche easier after even 45 lbs gone

2) I can breath deeper. I love to sing and play guitar and when I would play and sing I would actually get tired because I wasn't able to breath the way you need to when you sing.

3) Personal Hygene is easier... ENOUGH SAID!

Well, the three benefits I've enjoyed with the combination of eating right and exercising are....

1. I sleep better...It's wonderful it is to be able to sleep!!!

2. my endurance is increasing

3. my stamina is increasing

4. I have more patience (my family can tolerate me again....for some reason, high carbs make me really untolerable (a kinder word)).

5. My weight is decreasing (slowy by surely)

6. I feel good for 3 weeks out of the month (I'm a woman, I get one week to feel off).

Jan/Island Princess -- just a thought... if you are feeling a little stuck and demotivated, I HIGHLY recommend moving to OWL rather than extended induction. It makes a world of difference having more choices. And most people don't find they lose any slower than they would on induction. In fact, some do better!

My top benefits from this WOE:

1) My life not revolving around food -- I have control, not the food!
2) Feeling good in my skin and not constantly self conscious about my size.
3) Great skin -- no blemishes for the first since pre-puberty!
4) Ability to shop for NORMAL sizes in NORMAL stores!

[cookiecate]

(1) I am never hungry. I am in control of food it does not control me.

(2) I sleep better possibly because I don't go to bed overfed.

(3) Food tastes better, each meal is enjoyed and carefully prepared.
