Dear Cohenas

I am a returning soldier. I started last year, exactly the same time to the T (12months) and at exactly the same weight I started. It's kinda freaky that over a year, armed with all the knowledge I had acquired, I am still in the same position. Obviously I wasn't as hungry for success as I am now. I was even scared to go all the way and wanted to do it my way,even though I was utterly unsuccessful.
What motivates me the most is all the wonderful and encouraging stories I come across in this forum. It is truly a life-saver and I am not sure if I would have re-considered Cohen had it not been for this forum.
I had my bloods last week and hoping to get my programme on tuesday (the 23rd Feb), exactly the same day I received it last year.
I will highly appreciate your support and looking forward to joining all the challenges that will help me reach my goal.
Lotsa luv
Shaz

Hi Slimshaz,

I wish you success on your 2nd time round on this fabulous Cohen journey. I started my programme exactly on 23 Feb 09 and I completed it in October last year. That was about 7+ mths to lose 33kg and boy am I glad that I stuck through with it. I wish you would too this 2nd time round. You should be wiser as well I believe and you know that there's no way to 2nd guess the good doc. All the best.

Dear Flamie
I actually remember reading your posts last year and thinking that we could finish around the same time. Good on you for sticking through it. I also aim to lose 30kg by September and know for a fact that I will this time around. I've tried to do it on and off on my own and it was all in vain. My mind is so set this time I even dream about my new life.. I want to go 100% deviation free. My only weakness so far is coffee (cappucinos).
I will overcome this soon I know. I am getting my programme tomorrow and very excited cos I can get my ticker and diary.

Hey slimshaz!

Welcome to the forum

I don't think I would have 'believed' in Cohens had I not found this forum.

I wish you all the best on your journey!

Thanks guys for the wonderful support. I had a great day today but dinner was a bit of a miss.. had grilled lamb but it wasn't lean and the guilt feelings are already creeping in. I am getting my programme tomorrow but have been following my last programme today.
Can't wait to get my ticker and diary going and really get into this battle.

You have done so well in such a short space of time. Well done indeed... and keep it up.
