A New Love for Food . . .


I am finding a new love for food again.  By that, I mean I am starting to appreciate the food that is good for me, or at least better for me.  I still have my cravings for the occasional “not good for me food”, but Velocity has really helped me curb those cravings.  I used to have them three maybe four times a day and now it might be a couple times a week.  One of my major weaknesses was the very tasty and satisfying Mt. Dew.  A drink that can change my mood has been set aside because Velocity does something to me and I don’t even want a fountain drink anymore.  I personally think it has something to do with the energy boost because I was drinking a lot of caffeine on a daily basis.  If anyone has ever tried to kick the sauce and go fountain drink free, the head aches and bad moods that follow, well I will tell you I never had the fountain drink hang-over. 

Thanks to Velocity and a different mind set, I am now down 23 pounds and feeling really good.  I am running from 20 to 30 minutes a day.  I am still in the “shaking the cobwebs off” stage in my workouts but I really feel better through the day.  For all the diets I have tried, this one seems to be sticking and working really well for me.  I tried a modified Atkins and I lost a lot of weight really quick.  It took a little over a year but it all came back.  I tried a shake diet and I lost almost 30 pounds but it came back really quick.  I tried a double portion diet of the HCG and that lasted all of two days.  I’ve cut out my carbs and did well while doing it but sucked because so much of our food has carbs.  What really sucks for me is I am only 31 and I have been on the roller coaster of food.  The difference with Velocity is I am only losing two to three pounds a week and I seem to be healthier.  I am happier and have really enjoyed my experience two months into this.  I am hoping this will be my last diet and I can make the transition into a life style.

Thanks for reading.
