During the last week of January, 2011 I was sitting in my recliner eating Cheetos feeling bad. The recliner had brought me comfort many times during moments of being tired and worn out. There was something about eating those cheetos and drinking that coffee with lots of sugar and creamer that kept me coming back to that recliner. I always looked forward to those moments in my recliner, but after the cheetos and three or four cups of coffee I always started feeling bad again. I stood up, and said, "That's it...I've had it, and I am going to change..." Then I put my foot down. Not only did I put my foot down, but I stomped the floor and went directly to the garbage can and started dumping things that I had lived for into the garbage. Some of it was very dear to me, and I held on for a moment as I said "goodbye"...Then with a little squeeze of parting love, I dropped everything I could find that was trying to destroy me into the trash can and walk away with my mind made up to never return. It dawned on me that I had become a slave to a monster that I had built known as FAT.
During that same week I had received a call from a friend that I had know for several years, but I had not heard from her for a long time. I was happy to hear from Laura. After a few moments of general talk she told me that she had found something wonderful and wanted to tell me about it. Laura didn't know that I had already made up my mind to stomp fat out of my life. As she started talking I listened intently, because Laura was speaking from her heart about a line of products, and she really felt compelled to share this information with me. After the conversation I did some research on my own and checked out everything I could find about these products. I knew that Laura would not have called me if she had not really wanted to help me, and that she would never tell me about a product unless she was absolutly convinced that it would help me.
I decided to order just one of the products, since they have a 100 percent money back guarentee. I went to Laura's website and ordered a box of Zyng energy tablets. I had tried several energy drinks and I found one a couple of years ago that I thought was the best that could ever be. I still like that one, but when you are filling yourself up with cheetos, coffee in your sugar etc...you really would prefer just resting in the recliner, so I had stopped drinking energy drinks.
I really looked forward to trying this Zyng thing. When it arrived I quickly opened a package and popped two of those capsules into my mouth. Within just a few munites I was feeling so energized and so happy. I thought, "WOW... that little capsule is powerful." All night long I was working on projects and never got tired. I just kept going and feeling so good. The sun came up, and I just kept going all day long. Then I learned that I should have taken only one capsule during the morning hours, and that one capsule would last all day. I guess I had forgotten to read the directions. Now I am settled down to one each morning, and I simply love it. There is much talk about a five hour enerby drink. I tried that and I felt nothing but regret for spending the money for it. I have found something that keeps my energy level hight all day long.
After a couple of days of totally enjoying my new capsule friend and not even missing my cheetos, I had this idea about starting the Fat Stompers. I told a few friends about my plan, and then I set a goal for myself to lose 45 pounds by July 4, 2011. I had an abundant supply of healthy storage food with a shelf life of at least 15 years and decided to start off just making sure that I only ate until satisfied I determined that I must start drinking lots of water and walking.
I hate our city water. It is like drinking sewage. I think that is why I used so much sugar in my coffee. Another dear friend, Bill was here in the Church doing some work for me, and I expressed to him that I needed to start drinking good water. Then I found out that Bill had a good well and that he enjoyed good water every day. Now my gallon milk containers have been changed to water containers from the Bill Bradley well, and I am loving every sip of the eight glasses of water daily. I opened the Fat Stompers Club on Feb 1. This was less than a week from walking away from the cheetos and sweet coffee. When the Fat Stompers launched I had lost 6 pounds in less than a week.
From this point forward it doesn't matter how much or how little I lose daily, because I know that I am going to lose this waight, and If I have not reached 45 pounds of weight loss by the 4th of July, I will be well on my way.
I had decided to walk one mile each morning beginning on opening day of the Fat Stompers Club. After I had walked a mile, I was feeling good and decided to keep walking. I walked three miles, and now my goal is to do that again each morning, because I really enjoyed it, and I know I can do it. I don't think I have walked even a half mile in more than 40 years. This is awesome. That is the story of the beginnig moments of FAT STOMPERS.
If you want to put your foot down and stomp fat away, just join my club, and we will keep doing whatever it takes to stomp that unwanted fat right out of our lives.
God Bless.
