"I have been in WLGW for a year and half, and I have lost 65 pounds so far. I am 52 and like you I have tried everything. 

I know God led me to this group, and to God be the glory, because He was the difference maker. Trusting Him and His strength I followed the WLGW program every day. With the programs help I learned about SMART goals, which changed a lot for my goals. 

I also calorie track which is so annoying but for me it works, so it's a price I pay for letting myself get into this situation of being morbidly obese (my doctor said that in love and I was floored).

 My doctor also told me I was headed for Diabetes. I was Prediabetic already. 

She put me on Diabetes meds for a year and the side effects were something I didn't like, so after joining this program I talked to her and told her something in me had switched on and I would commit to losing weight, so she said I have a year to get my A1C down and she would take me off the Diabetes meds, which she did pretty early. 

I also committed to seeing her every 3 months for weigh ins and check ups/blood work. My A1C is down and just a tenth of a point for being out of Pre Diabetes range.

So through God's power I followed WLGW program, calorie tracked, started exercising just 5 minutes and day until I am up to 20 to 30 a day, drink more water, and intermittent fast Mon-Fri. 

And I have followed the program's lessons and activities. This has been the combination to work for me. None of this could have been done without God. I have tried all this before but never with God at my side. I did this slowly but surely. I never gave up, but I did have days and a week or two that I "fell off", but the program kept my eye on God and my goal. I have a few pounds left until I reach my original goal for Dec 31st that Cathy guided me through a year and a half ago. 

The WLGW goal setting lessons were one of the best things that happened to me.

 Setting a realistic goal was an eye opener!

So if you are thinking of joining, I encourage you to do so. Commit to it like you have never done before....pray hard about this...something must switch with your heart and mind through God. It is an investment, but you are worth it! I am worth it because God says I am!
