Diane DoBucki

Hi, I’m Diane DoBucki from Tintop, TX. and I want to share my weight loss story with you. Now I’m no dietitian or anything like that. I’m just a Mom and Grandma that found a system that works better than all the name brand and so-called celebrity diets you tried, (I tried a bunch, all the ones that didn’t work). My story I hope will inspire you to get the same or better results as me without killing yourself in a gym or starving to death.
For the most part slender people think that chunky people got that way simply because they’re lazy. Truth is, many of us gained extra weight because of the way life itself is. You know work, home, family — it all takes time from our day. And it’s all so very tiring. I mean who wants to come home after a full day of work, cook dinner, cleanup, and jump straight on the exercise bike? Not me, that’s for sure. And it has nothing to do with laziness. Face it we people only have so much time and energy.
Now I’ve never been “supermodel or Twiggy skinny,” (if you remember her) but I was pretty slender. After our first son was born, I gained about 10 lbs. After our third kid was born, I gained a total of 41 lbs. I weighed 161 lbs and felt on edge in my own body. So I determined to start dieting. I tried all the “brand-name” diets and programs like Metabolife, Atkins, Weight watcher, Jenny Craig, even the cabbage soup thing. You name it, I tried it. But none gave real results that lasted. So I basically gave up, oh, every now and then, when I couldn’t button my jeans I’d start something again hoping to see results. I even kept the too tight clothes in a bottom drawer that I named the “Someday” drawer.
