Jem_HA's Diary - For the Second and Final Time

[Jem_HA]

Hi there...

My name is Jem, I'm 28 and this is my second and final attempt the Cohen's Lifestyle Program.

I first completed the Cohen's Program at 18. I was saving up to travel and the vain teenager that I was recognised that I would have a better time overseas if I was slimmer (improved health and wellbeing was not a motivating factor). I lost 17kg in 8 weeks and was given my Re-feed. I didn't follow it! I'm hindsight this was the biggest mistake I could make.

Over the course of 6 months I regained the weight I lost and then in the following 10 years I put on even more. I am at my heaviest ever weight but I believe Cohen's Program will help me change that.

I feel that this time things will be different because this means more to me than fitting into some trendy jeans - I'm sick and tired or being sick and tired, I'm so proud of my life (I have an amazing partner, we've just finished a renovation of our first home and I'm kicking goals at my job) but I'm not making the most of it! I want to be healthier, I want to have energy, I want to have balance...and yes of course I want to be slim!

So this is it! I'm giving this my all, I'm doing this and not doing it again! I will succeed, I will re-feed, I will maintain.
