FLAVOR POINT
SUCCESS STORY # 6
Nancy Schebell
"…People have been saying, 'Look at you! You're so much thinner. You look so good."
The last time I was thin, I was a senior in high school. After having three kids and going to numerous ball games and eating junk regularly over the years, the weight just came on. I had tried Atkins in the past and I was a freak on it; after 2 weeks without carbs, I was miserable and I gave up. Dr. Katz told us in the beginning that this is a way of life and not a diet. He was right.
I really love this program, and I think it's something I'll be able to stick with for life. I now love grocery shopping. When I go, I spend a lot of time browsing, and I'm always looking for something different to try in the health food section. I want to find new foods that are good for me.
"Not only are the recipes really tasty, they're doable for a family. My kids are ages 3, 7, and 11 and they love the foods, especially the fish."
I used to crave chocolate a lot. Since I started the program, my cravings have stopped. Instead of sweets, I now opt for a cracker with some hummus on it or a handful of Kashi TLC crackers, carrots, or grape tomatoes. I always drink green tea because Dr. Katz told us it helps make you feel full, and it really works.
I am amazed at how full I am. I didn't make the desserts because most of the time, I was satisfied with dinner. I didn't need anything else.
 I feel so much better on this program; I have much more energy, and I've been walking between 2 and 4 miles every day. My clothes fit better, and people have been saying, 'look at you! You're so much thinner. You look so good.'
My coworkers have been particularly supportive. And a lot of people have asked me about the program that I'm on; they can't wait to try it, too!
