LAURA S
THREE WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE PROGRAM
supportive, unique, successful
What was the most surprising thing you learned or experienced during the program?
That I could eat so many vegetables and enjoy it, and that a lot of the foods that I thought were promoting weight loss were not actually helping me. I also learned a lot about snacking.
WHAT CHANGES HAVE YOU NOTICED SINCE YOU BEGAN THE PROGRAM?
I understand how what I eat will affect my body. I understand the relationship between my food choices and the scale.
What did you like best about the program?
I got results and I learned!
Why do you think this program worked for you?
The accountability is/was everything. I think of it more as support to make the best choices possible, and having a team in your corner whose only agenda is your success. People are weird, they take your food choices personally, they want you to eat and drink because they are. The odds are if you need support you didn’t get there alone, yet you feel so alone when your pants don’t fit or you can’t zip your dress. The program worked for me because I had people who had my back.
WHAT PART OF THE PROGRAM WAS THE HARDEST FOR YOU? THE EASIEST?
I think the first week on the program, the detox, was the hardest. It’s funny, I was already gluten and dairy free and am not a big drinker, I just ate so very differently then the program. I used to avoid vegetables because I was convinced I could not digest them. Ha! It turns out I can. The easiest part was the recipes. I took a lot of joy in trying them.
WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR SOMEONE NEW TO THE PROGRAM?
You got this!! You can do this! The Sugar Snap Team has your back. Soak in their knowledge, read their newsletters, and try to enjoy the process. I actually surpassed my goal and never thought it was possible. Embrace the possibility, success is well within reach with the right team behind you!
