Thank YOU New You for giving me the Opportunity to FIND ME again. This moring I weighed 15st some achievement from 20st 8 1/2lbs. I leave this weekend from Spain to go back home and my family and friends are going to be gob smacked at the difference. Re; breaking the door down, I know I sound like a broken down record, singing the praises of the plan, any time I have a captive audience lol….they are all convinced I am on commission, but it saddens me to see fellow over weighters who are just stuck in a rut….I’m like Give it a try, just one week and the difference will be amazing, not just in the lost of pounds and inches, but in your well being and general health. I still have a long way to go, but NOT as long, 2/3rd through my journey now. Have met some awesome people on here and just love our wee ss familia..
Thank you for such a lovely comment Anne 🙂 You have taken this completely in your stride and your achievements are something that make us so very proud of you! keep it up Anne 🙂
For the first time I actually feel confident on a diet ,I own it,onwards and upwards or DOWNWARDS on the
scales:-)
Woohoo Tracy you have certainly gotten to your focus back and it is going to be an awesome 2014 for you, I can feel it!
Good Morning!!! Today I am taking the oportunity to be positive and to stay on track.
NewYou gave me the oportunity to change my life in more ways than just weight loss. I feel fantastic. I feel positive and this is opening even more doors!!!
Thanks
Just what we hoped to hear Fiona 🙂 keep it up and keep smashing through those doors to find your opportunities!
Good Morning !!
Talking of doors …. Today I am happy to be able to fit through the front door the back door and the car door , without squeezing through, and its all thanks to avoiding the fridge door lol ..sorry its my daft sense of humour 🙂
Happy Days are ahead of me New You has opened the door to a new chapter in my life , I will always remember this journey with a big smile .
Lots of love to everyone xxx
Brilliant Sense of humor Oonagh 🙂 I love it and you have done a sterling job of smashing your way through all doors and proverbial obstacles!
I echo the comments above. Thanks to NY for helping my find my confidence & do things I wasn’t able todo before or succeed at x
Thanks Lorna – your support over the last couple of months has meant a lot to me and I have been inspired by you ever since we had the chance to do the video interview 🙂
I have lost count of the times I thought “oh I must lose weight, I’m not happy with how I look etc”. In April of this year I finally grabbed the bull by the horns and ordered my first month of New You packs, I was so determined that I could do this. New you gave me the tools ( food, support, literature) but I needed the willpower and determination to succeed, and here we are 8 months down the road with a few breaks in between and I have lost 8st 6 1/2lbs to date, so Opportunity Does Not Knock, it Presents Itself When you Beat Down the Door’ for me means that yes you can want to change things but you have to really want this for it to happen.
Thank you to everyone at New You for being my opportunity, thank you me for beating down the door!
You are most welcome Shell, you have more than just beaten down the door – you took the handle with you 🙂 Well done again Shell and thank you so much for the lovely card!
I want to say thank you to New You for this plan & to all the SS as I never ever thought I could lose 50lbs in 11.5 weeks. So 3 stone 8lb gone hopefully forever. I will be back to lose the other 50lbs in the New Year. I need to go to Sunday so my thought for the day and rest of the week is to keep focused until then xx
You have really brought yourself through this Wendy and I have loved seeing your transformation unfold. 3.8 Stone is an EPIC win!
For months I had been saying to myself that I must get my eating under control, Sept 2012 our lives changed when my husband was diagnosed with a very serious illness and I turned to food. I was out of control and my health was beginning to suffer mainly due to stress and being overweight did not help. I did not want to commit to weekly meetings as I needed to be at home. I went surfing the internet and came across The New You plan, it took me a few weeks to place an order because I thought I was wasting money as I would not be able to stick to it. When I started I gave up after a few days. I was very bothered and spent every day thinking about my weight and eating more. I started again for the Halloween challenge and stuck with it all the way. Taking a break now for Christmas and I will be back in soon to continue my journey. The support through the ss’s page has been wonderful and helped me stay on track. I went knocking on the new you door last Oct and it has opened the door to the new me in body and mind. I have regained control over my eating habits and don’t plan to go back to my old habits. I am now a healthier ,happier person. There are very difficult times ahead I know but a big thank you to New You as I now know I can , I can and I will…..
You have certainly opened some of the right doors here Liz and slammed firmly shut some of the wrong ones. I have enjoyed every minute of you being here and I am holding you to it when you say you are going to be back with me next year.
i want to thank new you and all my fellow secret slimmers for their support as i made my way through this journey to a new or should i say the old me before weight became an issue i could not have done it without the wonderful support and encouragement that i got every day during this journey i wish everyone continued success and i hope everyone has a very happy and slim christmas thank you new you xx
Bless thank you Pauline and I hope you have a rocking 2014 too. Well done!
I’ve got back the old me!, the perso. I always wanted to be!! What more can u want!! I got my confidence, personality and life back no more hiding and it’s all thanks to new you plan and secret slimmers!! Total life savers xxx thank you xxx
You are most welcome Kathleen – you have smashed this challenge and I am really looking forward to seeing what you achieve in the future!
What motivated me to lose weight was seeing a sideways photo of me,taken in August. Not flattering!!
I Googled diets and found New You, and the rest is history. Today I am 2 stone lighter, healthier and happier.:) Thank you New You. Each and every one of you are a credit to the company. Love you all. xx
Woohoo Mags 🙂 We all wish you an amazing Christmas and New Year to. Thanks for all the support!
Taking the opportunity to do the New You Plan to lose the weight I have put on in the last 2 years has been fantastic!! I love how simple it is and the quick results you get without having to put too much thought and effort into it unlike other diets I’ve tried. I’m a very independent person too so i love the fact that it’s my responsibility to stick to the plan and I don’t have to attend a support group every week but the support is there on the ss page whenever I need it. I’ve lost 2 stone so far and it’s already made a change to how I feel about myself and given me a confidence boost. 1.5 stone to go and I can see me doing that in the new year easily!! I’m so going to miss the Christmas challenge and am looking forward to what you have in store for us in the new year to help keep us on track 🙂 X
Well done Clare and thank you so much, this was just the boost I needed to up by game for next year 🙂 2 stone is an awesome achievement and we are going to make sure you wave good bye to the other 1.5.
I an so glad I gave this plan a go , I can’t begin to list the reasons why this plan is sooooo good. , and how it really works:) the support of the ss group is second to none , and the customer service from everyone at New You is the best I have ever experienced . I am so glad I took this opportunity ….. Goodbye 18’s 17’s 16’s and almost 15’s in less than 8 weeks …. On top of the world , what more can I say ! Xx
Such an amazing success Jasmin and I have thoroughly enjoyed having you participate in my blogs each day. Keep it up you are really blitzing your goals!
‘ If you always do, what you always did, you will always get what you got’
I love this quote, says it all really!
I have been overweight for a long time and unhappy in my own skin. I have wanted things to just change and for me to be healthy and slim. Well it ain’t that easy- you have to want it more than anything, grasp opportunities and give it 100% of your time, energy and attention, because no one else is going to do it for you!
It was my doing that I was overweight and nobody elses and that took a long time to grasp.
I feel so lucky that New You popped up whilst I was on facebook. I had a few false strats as I battled with my demons but then my mindset changed and I GAVE IT EVERYTHING AND KICKED ASS!!! 🙂 I challenged my sabotage demon and won.
New You, you are all amzing and really care about each and everyone of us, you make dreams possible and Secret Slimmers is just simply the best. You could not pay for the support you get here- second to none. I have lost 2 stone in 6 weeks and am feeling great.
Thank you to my New You family- couldnt have done it without you. Have a fab Christams and see you in 2014 for even more eight loss. whoop whoop! xxx
A true inspiration from the start Aimee and those are some really powerful words that have made me really look forward to 2014 and what we can all achieve. It is going to be sad to say goodbye to a few of the people here who have hit their targets and are moving on but I am truly grateful to see how much this means to everyone! Thanks again for all the support Aimee.
I had been struggling to lose weight for years, restricting my calories to the minimum but still putting on weight. Then I stumbled across New You on facebook.
Take real food out of the equation and ta da I’ve lost 3 stone in just over 2 months. I’m just over a third over the way through my journey, but i am totally focused, putting myself first for a change and enjoying every moment. I know next summer I will be slim and confident and happy to expose some flesh! No more cover up baggy t-shirts for me 😀 xxx
Awesome comment Wendy and you are right there are going to be some big changes headed into 2014!
I CAN DO THIS oh wait…I AM DOING THIS 🙂 just ordered my pack to get me through Xmas and then tfr for 2014 I’m so buzzing today got my nails done hair booked in for Saturday and new clothes for a weekend away nothing is taking this smile of my face today 🙂 all thanks to you xxx
Definitely one of the most feel good comments I could hope for Shauna, you have earned these treats and we are all buzzing to see what 2014 brings!
I have the opportunity to be me – the wonderful mother, wife and friend that I can be! Not hiding in shapeless clothes but out there strutting my stuff – full of confidence!! I can do this!!!
Woohoo Dee, I am looking forward to the ‘I did this’ comment I know the future is holding for you.
This is an amazing find which has helped me get back to my normal size and self and also for my children. This is just the start which will help me get my self confidence back and to start moving forward after being stuck after 3 years.
Super Tara, you are going to get there and just being here is part of the steps you can take to ensure this. Keep it up and keep going!
For me this plan has not only helped me to start losing the weight but also has helped me to change my way of thinking about my approach to transforming myself. I have tried for many many years to lose weight and have tried (I think) everything but what I have come to realise is that unless I put in the hard work I will never see the results that I want to see. So from now on I will be smashing in all the doors for my success in life. Thank you New You Plan for opening my eyes. xx
Thank you so much Devinia – I have already seen you smash a few targets and break down a few doors to opportunity. Lets just keep it going!
New you has helped me open the door to a new me. It has given me the ability to take control and be in control not only in relation to diet but in other aspects of my life.
I am thrilled to hear this Brenda 🙂 you have really nailed this and I am so looking forward to hearing about the end result!
I am so pleased to have discovered the New You Plan. The shakes and meals are delicious so unalike other shake type diets.
I have opened up a door to a new me and i hope that I can close it behind me forever.
If this is what you want Sue you are already headed in the right direction! 2014 is going to be your year!
I have tried so many different diets before but some reason never worked for me. I feel great and extremly happy that i found this diet..i start to feel old myself again..i think, well i know as a matter of fact that very soon i will be on my target weight and continue being healthy and happy. Thank you for Ny and SS..you are awsome..xx
Thank you Esra – your support across the website is very much appreciated and we are delighted to hear just how well you have taken to the plan. Keep it up – 2014 will be your year!
I feel I have locked the power of control again, I know I can do it! It’s been a long time since I felt like that x
Woohoo Jo, I am expecting you to hear great things from you in the New Year 🙂
NEW YOU has given me the chance to not only lose 4 stone so far a lot more to go but a fabby start. I have loads more energy and when off the plan do not crave sweet things as I used to and view food as source of energy and not purely treating myself. My asthma has also improved greatly its not just a diet it is a whole new perspective on life. Get me all diplomatic good luck to all my s.s. friends x Your support is most valuable x
I love this post Avril, you have done so so well and I am so looking forward to hearing how well you get on next year. For now thank you for the support and have an amazing Christmas!
Down down down lol looking forward to a new year with the new me
You totally nailed it this year Caroline – well done and thanks for the ongoing support 🙂
Having discovered NYP, my future is safe. I love that I am able to do this, go me !!! Success is such a great feeling.
It is indeed Linda 🙂 keep it up and you will see the milestones on your journey fall beneath your feet!
