my boring life


 weight loss
Back to Full Blog  

Well I have gained some poundage over the years. After I hit 35 it seems the weight hit back. I also have high cholesterol to go with it. I have decided to go investigate Herbal Magic. The reason for this was because I was a member back about 12 years ago. I had success with the system before. After my Father died I turned to the fridge for comfort. I was devestated when he died and had a lot of unresolved issues. He basically drank himself to death after my brother was killed in a car accident. I felt abandoned by him even though I was in my early 30's. I felt like I wasn't good enough for him to live for. I was a mess. Now I accept the fact that my Father loved me and he had a problem that was compouned by the death.

the main rason for the re-joining of Herbal Magic is kind of scary. I was sitting at the desk trying to get my banking crap sorted out. I accidently made a payment online to the wrong credit card so the once card had a credit of 300.00 and the other one needed a payment. Got that straightened out thankfully. The phone rang and usually I do not pick it up if I think it is a telemarketer. The display said private so I thought what the heck I will pick it up. It was Herbal magic saying that they had been going through their old files and checking to see how past customers were doing. They are offering the whole plan to me for 49.99. I asked it there were other costs she said that I would have to pay for the product, not a big deal because I had to before. Last time the starting fees etc added up to almost four hundred dollers. I asked again, "all I have to pay the 49.99 and the product and that is it, no other fees?" she said no and asked me if it was something I would be interested in. I said yes and have an appointment for 11am tomorrow. Lets see if she was telling the whole truth. It just seems so strange that I get this call when I have been debating about what to do. I want to fit back into my skinny jeans.

I will post tomorrow to let you know what happened.

Trust me when I tell you...I know about issues with weight!! For most of my adult life, I was what is called "morbidly obese"...long story short, I was miserable....and then I ran into a girl at work who'd lost 150lbs on one of the days when I was SO miserable that I could have jumped off a bridge...seeing her inspired me to DO something, and now I'm "normal" again. It was fate that I saw that girl on that day. And it was fate that made you answer that phone! Good luck to you!! You've done it before and you can do it again!

Herbal Magic is the name of the company. You buy normal grocery store food and they do one on one consultations, check your food diary, give you food ideas and sell you the herbal products. They weigh you everyday for the first two weeks and then three times a week after that. Measurements are done once a week. They are sort of like diet police, which is what I need. Last time it was great to see the weight go down every day even if it was just a quarter of a pound a day.
