You tell yourself, I’ll start tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day you’ll begin a strict diet and daily workouts to fit into those flirty summer dresses, or build six-pack abs to impress at the beach. But tomorrow becomes the day after as you procrastinate with a bag of chips or a chocolate bar. The day after turns into a week later, as you put off working out because you’re feeling too tired. Before you know it, the summer has gone by, but you’ve stayed exactly where you started – or perhaps gained more weight.
If you think it only happens to you, think again. You are not alone. Millions of men and women diet, lose weight, and gain it all back later. Millions set unrealistic weight loss goals or go on miracle fad diets, only to abandon them days later. These people think the same thing you’re thinking: I want to lose weight, but I can’t. They blame the same things you blame: no self-control, stress, fatigue, and zero willpower.
No matter what he did, Jesse could never lose what he called his “fat baggage.” Even after all the diets and competitive football and swimming in high school, his weight never dropped below 230 pounds. When he left for college, the “baggage” became even heavier once the stress of being on his own mixed with the typical college life of partying and fast food. For Jesse, the ubiquitous “freshman 15” turned into the “freshman 40,” and by sophomore year the former athlete was close to 300 pounds.
“In a college setting people are very competitive and it’s in the back of your mind that you’re not in as good of shape as your peers” says the 21-year-old. “It kept me from participating in things, which made it difficult to fit in.”
Dejected, Jesse gave up on trying to balance healthy habits at school and his college experience began to revolve around playing video games and drinking. It wasn’t until a breakup that he decided to be more productive with his time and energy.
Introduced to Isagenix® by his mom, he was skeptical at first because he had tried everything but nothing seemed to help him keep the weight off for good. With each diet, one little cheat piled the pounds back on. After losing a total of 101 pounds on Isagenix, Jesse is now an avid believer in Nutritional Cleansing.
“I always knew how to eat healthy but I had never been introduced to the cleansing,” shares Jesse. “I think that was a key to getting rid of that extra fat baggage I’d been carrying around for years. It’s finally gone.”
