Hi, my name is Julie. I'm a wife, a mother of a
14-month-old daughter, and a captain in the U.S. military. This is
my weight-loss story.
I've always been a really active person. I was a
cheerleader and participated in crew, both in high school and at
Florida Tech in Melbourne, Florida, where I graduated with a BS in
marine biology.
That all changed, though, when I decided to join
ROTC. Why? The training was very time-consuming and didn't allow for
the two workouts a day I was used to, so the pounds started to add
up. I struggled with the same twenty to thirty pounds during my last
two years of college and first three years following college. My job
in the military requires a level of physical fitness; being fit and
trim is literally part of my job. And because of the added weight, I
always struggled to meet the requirements. That worried me.
Then I got pregnant, which was great news for my
husband Jon and me. However, Jon (a Military Policeman) was soon
deployed to Iraq to command the 118th MP Company, so he was gone
during six of the nine months I was pregnant and was unable to come
home until the baby was six weeks old (and that was only for two
weeks).
I felt terribly lonely and depressed. I just let
myself go during my pregnancy and added an extra 60-plus pounds to
the 20 pounds I'd already gained over the years, and my weight
peaked at a whopping 223 lbs. (I'm 5' 8".) Because of my career (and
for health reasons), I knew I had to shape up—or else.
The military makes it very difficult to stay healthy.
It supports a healthy lifestyle and physical fitness, but the
operation tempo at work on a daily basis and the availability of
healthy food make being healthy a challenge. The long hours at work
(usually over twelve a day) make working out after work next to
impossible. And the "quick lunch and get back to work" pace makes it
very difficult to find low-fat food that's quick and tasty. During
my pregnancy, I ate with all guys at work, so fast food was my
staple. It fit our schedule, and because of my depression, I didn't
care how much weight I gained.

The Nutrisystem weight loss plan
I had Emma Grace in August 31, 2004. Soon after
Emma's birth, I began planning how I would lose the weight. I saw an
advertisement for
NutriSystem weight loss and decided that, with my busy
military lifestyle and living alone with a new baby, the ease of the
program would be perfect for me. I was right. It was easy to take to
work and work into my routine. I quickly lost all the weight plus
the twenty pounds that I had always struggled with—76 lbs.* in all!
Nutra System weight loss program
Thanks to
Nutra System, I didn't find losing weight
very challenging. I lost weight so consistently that it was easy to
stay on track. The whole experience was rewarding—I felt great about
how I felt about myself and how I saw others responding to me in
such a positive, supportive way.
Nutri Systems
diet was so convenient to use, too. Between
our morning workout sessions and going to work, breakfast was always
just a quick grab on the go. And I'd take a lunch to work, so when
we'd go to a fast food restaurant for lunch, I would just grab a
side salad because I had eaten my lunch at my desk prior to going to
lunch with the guys—so my hunger wasn't out of control and I never
missed out on the social aspect of our lunches. It was quick and
easy when I got home, too—especially because I liked so many of the
dinners. I love all the pasta dishes. The burger and pizza are also
among my top five favorites, along with the mac and cheese, and the
hot dogs. Basically, NutriSystem
took the thinking out of losing
weight and I could concentrate on more important things.
Even better, I am able to do my job up to my
potential now because of the weight I lost on NutriSystem. I can run
and be much more active. I have more energy to go long hours, too.
And prior to NutriSystem, I'd never met the military weight
standards without taking my body fat percentage into account. But
since losing the weight, I haven't had to have additional testing
done to make sure I meet the standard!
Now that I've lost 76 lbs.*, I look how I feel I
should look. I mean, I pictured myself thin and healthy before, but
would see pictures of myself and dismiss the thick thighs and the
big butt. But now I don't have them and I actually have a gap
between my thighs!
I am so much happier, too—much more outgoing. And I
love to go shopping and try on jeans! I couldn't fit into 14 jeans
after I had Emma, and now I am in to a size 6 with room in them!
I'm not the only one to notice that I look better,
either. My husband would see me on the Internet over our webcam
while he was deployed and the more I lost, the more anxious he was
to get home to me as soon as possible! I also went back to my
hometown after I had lost a lot of the weight and my old classmates
were all buzzing about how great I looked and couldn't believe I had
had a baby.
Pretty much everyone has been so thrilled for me.
Most people have wanted to know how I was doing it so fast. I even
got my mom, sister and cousin to try the program and they all had
great results, too. In fact, my cousin lost almost 10 lbs.* in her
first week! I taught them what
man NutriSystem has taught me: to balance
my food and to control how much I am eating. For example, I don't
need to eat a whole sandwich; I can just eat half of it and be full.
And just because the restaurant gives you a full plate of food, that
doesn't mean that that's how much you should be eating in one
sitting.
NutriSystem
Advanced seemed to be happy with my weight loss,
too—I couldn't believe it when I was asked to be in one of their
commercial shoots! My whole family was so excited for me. I was
really nervous about going, though, and almost backed out at the
last minute. (I thought maybe I hadn't lost enough to deserve to be
on the commercial shoot.) I was also afraid that people who weren't
my friends and family would not be as impressed. But my mom told me
to go and I am so glad that I listened. I had so much fun and met so
many amazing women who accomplished such amazing weight loss, that
the experience will be an inspiration to me for the rest of my life.
Speaking of the rest of my life: My husband and I
were assigned to Korea once I finished Captain School after I was
promoted from 1st Lieutenant to Captain. We recently moved from
Fayetteville (Fort Bragg), North Carolina to Yongsan, Korea! It was
a very difficult move with a one-year-old and a husband (neither of
whom travel well). We were in the process of moving starting in
mid-July and we finally arrived in Korea on 22 Aug. So it took just
over a month to get everything on line. And the big news
continues—now we're joyfully expecting our second child in April of
'06!
So I can tell you from experience—NutraSystem
success is the
perfect plan for new moms who need to lose weight. You don't have to
worry about what you need to be eating and you can concentrate on
your children because NutriSystem does all the work of laying out
your meals for you. It is so worth every penny. Just try and it and
you will be amazed at how simple the program is!
Thank you, NutriSystem! I owe you my new life.
