TestimonialsElise Price Chicago, IL
Ever gain a sizeable amount of weight kind of slowly over time and then get a shock when you one day realize that you've ballooned? Those "creeping pounds" tell the story of Elise Price. Elise's enjoyment of high fat cookies (sometimes the whole box at a time!) had contributed to her creeping pounds, taking her up to a size 10 (well, sometimes a 12) dress. And she had too many distractions in her life to notice. But when some close friends politely noticed, she embarked on a CaloriesCount.com guided weight loss journey. Sticking to a CaloriesCount meal plan that cut out 500 calories a day from her normal 2000 calorie diet, she gradually "stuck it to" those unwanted pounds. The defining moment for Elise's weight loss victory came in a department store dressing room. "I needed a dress to wear to a friend's wedding and I started out with a size 12. It was too big. I tried a size 10. IT was too big. Then an eight - still too big. A six - too big! So I said, forget the budget and marched myself down to an exclusive boutique and dropped $400 on a new size 4/6 dress!" That day Elise not only found a new dress, she found a new positive attitude to help her keep on "healthy eating and exercising for life!" That was six months ago. Today, Elise still sports that svelte figure (130 lbs.) and matching attitude, which she maintains daily with a simple workout and sensible eating program. "I exercise 20 minutes a day, seven days a week. But everyday is different. I'm on the treadmill one day. A bicycle the next. One day I might swim. Another will be jump rope and weights," according to Elise, who explains that keeping her exercises varied keeps her from getting bored with any one of them. And she sticks to the "Calories Count" motto by using the Enhanced Calorie Calculator to find foods that fit her calorie level goal. Once able to eat 12 cookies in one sitting, Elise says one cookie now will satisfy her sweet tooth (or even just a few jelly beans - a tip she picked up from CaloriesCount.com). She also switched to diet sodas and low-fat dairy products giving up "full-octane" versions of both. "My fiance' likes to cook and, fortunately for me, his meals are always low in calories and fat with lots of fresh vegetables and unusual herbs. We enjoy trying the CaloriesCount featured recipes together," Elise says. "He keeps things interesting - in more ways than one - you might say!"
