As promised, I'm popping in today to answer the questions you left on last week's post about my weight loss journey. I've thrown in a few more before and after photos as well.
Question: The question I have is… do you think there is something specific about WW that helped you to lose or do you think it was just because you made up your mind and stuck with it.
I think it's both. I've been overweight my entire life and have struggled with my weight since I was a child. I know that I definitely approached Weight Watchers with a different level of commitment and enthusiasm than I've ever approached a weight loss program before. That said, Weight Watchers does make it easy for you. The changes you make are gradual over time and the Plan is both clear and flexible. One of the many reasons that I'm a huge fan of Weight Watchers is because it's not a diet. It's a lifestyle. I am going to have to live the Weight Watchers lifestyle every single day for the rest of my life. And it's a choice that feels doable because I can still eat hamburgers and pizza and chocolate chip cookies and stay On Plan and lose weight.
Question: I know you traveled recently; how did you make that work into your plan?
Traveling was really difficult at the beginning of my journey. It has gotten easier over time, just like eating out has. I make sure to drink a lot of water when I'm traveling. Oftentimes when I think I'm hungry, I'm actually thirsty. I also say no to almost anything in a bag (chips, cookies, crackers, etc.) and do my best to hunt down fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible. When I can find them, I fill up. A salad with dressing on the side and no croutons, nuts, or cheese, is always a good choice. I try to order seafood, look for words like "steamed" and "poached," and avoid the bread basket. I always eat breakfast so that I'm never starting the day ravenous.
Question: Do you prefer the WW meetings or online, motivationally speaking?
I like online. I travel a lot and doing it online makes it so that I don't have to be anywhere at a specific time. There are lots of great message boards and blogs on the Weight Watchers site that keep me motivated every single day.
Question: nyc apartment living isn't always conducive to cooking..do you eat out as much as in the past?
I don't order in as much. New York living is all about ordering food for delivery. In the olden days, I might have ordered 3 meals a day. But you don't know what restaurants are putting in your food and how they're preparing it. So these days I usually cook when I'm home. That said, I'm a pretty low-key cook. Mostly one pot meals.
I do still do eat out a lot. That's just part of the NYC culture. And now that I'm dating, it's a major activity. I've found that I can eat out and lose weight, but only if I make the right choices. When I know I'm going out for a meal, I eat mostly steamed veggies for the rest of that day so that I can save all of my Points for the meal out. When ordering, I'm careful to avoid sauces and choose low-Point choices like fish. I avoid alcohol. Over the past year I've learned how to make eating out work for me. I absolutely have the occassional carb and cheese fest. I definitely dig into dessert from time to time. In order for me to do this for the rest of my life I can't have anything be "off limits." That will never work for me. In fact, I probably have at least one indulgence every single day. This keeps me sane and happily On Plan.
Question: How do you keep motivated and on track when life does gets "off-course" and your schedule is in flux? What was the deciding factor for you to create the "this is what I am going to do (WW) and I AM going to stick to it" attitude? Do you go to WW meetings or do it online? How did you find support for the weight loss journey and the changes in your life it takes to be on that journey? Is the weight loss mostly food choices or are you also exercising?
I find the motivation question difficult. I always wanted to lose weight and had lots of good reasons, but just couldn't motivate myself. I don't know that I can exactly identify why it was different this time, but I feel keenly motivated from within. Additionally, as the weight has come off, the motivation has become stronger and stronger. Success is addictive. When life gets "off course," I track what I ate and hop right back On Plan. I'm not looking for an excuse to fall off the wagon. I'm looking for an opportunity to hop back on. It's not dissimilar to my feelings on making art every day. Do I? No. Do I try to? Absolutely. And if a day goes by where I don't, well, tomorrow is another day and another chance to do it.
Support is a really interesting question. It was actually a lot harder to do Weight Watchers when John was in the house because he didn't want to change his lifestyle. Once he left and the kitchen and mealtime were 100% under my control, it was much much easier. That said, for me, it has been really important to be internally motivated and not depend on other people being supportive. I need to be able to walk into the most difficult food situation on earth and still be able to stay On Plan. I'm the only one who can say "no" to the food. I think motivation is a bit like happiness. To truly be happy, that comes from inside. Other people can add to your happiness, but they can't make you happy. Motivation is the same.
As for food vs. exercise, the weight loss is mostly food choices and not exercise. Shocking, right? The truth is, food intake determines weight. Exercise determines health. What's that old saying? You make your abs in the gym and reveal them in the kitchen.
Question: Just wondering if you could share some of your recipes that you have enjoyed, maybe some of your fav tips and how much exercise you do.
Question: What are you doing for exercise??
Question: How much did you exercise during the process? II was on WW until I was seriously ill last year. I follow the plan on my own…….but only sometimes. I have gotten sloppy. I always worry about how bad the loose skin will look…….silly I know.
I think I've already addressed the exercise question. I do a bit of yoga and some strength training, but really, 98% of my weight loss is food choices. I wish I were better about exercise, but I'm not.
As for favorite recipes, I think skinnytaste.com is a brilliant website. I love this recipe and this one. I eat steamed cauliflower almost every single day. One of my favorite ways to prepare it is with a tsp of olive oil, some capers, pepper, chopped red onion, tomatoes, and lemon juice. Absolutely delicious! I also eat a lot of tofu and vegetable stir fries. However, I cook my tofu and vegetables in chicken broth instead of oil. It's tasty and takes away a lot of the calories.
The loose skin issue is a very scary one. I was intensely fearful about loose skin. So far, I'm jiggly, but I don't have any of those hanging flaps that I've read about. I drink a lot of water and moisturize every day. I also think the fact that I'm young-ish and Asian really helped in terms of skin elasticity. I am hoping that my skin will continue to tighten up over time, but we shall see. I'm particularly concerned about my arms, which seem to be waving in the wind, but I'm going to give it some time and add a bit more strength training to my week.
Question: I'd love to hear about how you are feeling physically. Tell us about how different your travel was being 100 lbs lighter! All the things you were able to do without the struggle of the extra weight.
I know this is going to sound odd, but I don't feel that physically different. There are definitely things that are easier, like stairs. But, for me, the weight has come off so gradually that I don't really notice the changes day-to-day. I do fit in chairs (like airplane seats) much more easily. And that's awesome. I am certainly less tired after walking around all day. I definitely don't think I could have gone dancing for five or six hours 100 pounds ago. I've done it a few times now and wake up the next day feeling great. I think I probably would have had sore knees and thighs in the old days. Because I live in NYC, walking and climbing subway steps has always been a part of every day life. I do notice that I wear my sneakers less often. Probably an indication that my feet hurt less.
It's a funny thing. I don't think that I could pick up a 100 pound weight and carry it around, and yet I don't feel that different. I'm sure there are a million unseen health benefits that my heart and knees could tell you about, however.
Question: How do you feel now having lost 100 pounds? Have you bought any new fun clothing that makes you feel as fabulous as you look?
As I mentioned before, I'm having a lot of trouble seeing myself as any different than I was 100 pounds ago. I know I'm different because I see the photos (which I almost always say were "taken from a good angle" because I can't believe I look like that). Strangers also treat me better, which is uncomfortable. I still consider myself fat. I definitely think most people who meet me would still consider me fat. I'm just not as fat as I used to be.
As for clothes, I have had to buy new pants and underwear because I've gone down 6 pant sizes in the past year. I've bought a few tops and dresses along the way, but mostly my body is changing so much that I don't want to spend the money on a whole new wardrobe every few months. That said, I do have a little black dress that I bought a few weeks ago and am dying to wear….
Question: How did you do it? I'm on a weight loss program right now, basically just eating less and barely any sweets.
Weight Watchers is a great program because it forces you to make choices. What is that food worth to you? Is eating a piece of chocolate cake for dessert worth eating steamed veggies for the rest of the day? If so, then go for it. I still eat sweets, but I don't eat them mindlessly. I'm careful about what I choose and I really savor it. And I'm not starving myself. I feel plenty full every single day. I'm simply replacing the food I used to eat with better choices. If I want something sweet I go for fruit. Craving chocolate? Half an ounce of M&Ms is a great satisfier. Looking for something savory? I love Annie Chun's seaweed snacks or a few Ka-Me Rice Crackers. I used to fill a bowl with pasta and maybe put on a vegetable. Maybe. Now I fill a bowl with veggies and add a tiny bit of pasta. It's just a different way of thinking about what should be the main part of your meal.
Question: You may like to comment sometime on what role art played in your journey….that would be very interesting.
Interestingly, I'm not sure that art has played a role in my weight loss journey. I'm trying to think about why that might be. I suspect it's because my weight has never been a part of my art. I don't think I used it to create art before I lost weight. A big part of my art is about my feelings. Insofar as my weight loss has affected my feelings, I suppose it has found its way into my artwork. But I think, at the moment, I'm more aware of how my divorce and subsequent emotional evolution has manifested itself in my work. I think it's more likely that my career will change because of the weight loss, rather than my artwork. And that is a very interesting issue.
So, there you have it. Some questions and answers. Thank you all for being so very supportive. I was quite nervous about "coming out," but I'm so very glad that I did!
Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you for sharing all of this. I have been slowly losing but want to do an even better job. My age and medical issues make it more challenging but other people noticing changes and making encouraging comments is motivating. You are an awesome role model!

I’m a writer myself, but you sure have a great way with words, Julie! Thanks for answering all of those questions. I was once on WW and lost 26 pounds. Now I’m just eating less, eating better, and hardly eating sweets. I may consider WW online again, though. I think your career could change because of the weight loss, though, since you have such a beautiful face!

Julie, you’re incredible!!! Your replies are as honest as I’d expect from you, and so interesting to read! I’ve guessed about your separation, and I really appreciate your sharing it so straight forward. I wish you all the happiness in your career, love life and new life style! I went through a similar phase about 15 years ago, when I got a divorce and lost a lot of weight 🙂

Wow! That’s amazing. I’ve tried WW online about 3 times and I just find it very hard to stick to and follow. Maybe it’s because I’m always hurrying when I’m on site and don’t take the time to discover the forums etc. I’ve been asking myself lately why it is that I can’t lose when I tell myself I want to–I guess motivation is that key. You’ve inspired me to give it another shot! Thanks for sharing.

Julie, thank you so much for sharing this! I, too, struggle with my weight, as I think many if not most women do. And I have noticed that we all harbor a hatred for our weight whether we are 5 pounds overweight or 50 (or more). And I want to tell you this–you are NOT fat! Congratulations on your success at losing 100 pounds! You may not be at your goal weight yet, but, Girlfriend, you are NOT fat anymore!

Simply put..YOU ROCK! So much of what you wrote about your approach and your feelings about your weight/weight loss absolutely resonated with me. I joined WW a few weeks ago and for the sole reason that I live in NYC and travel and need to be able to eat out. I’m not good with “deprevation” so I needed a plan that allows me the things I love once in a while. Encouraged to hear that you haven’t really added exercise to the mix..you’re right..NYC life is pretty active as it is. I may add something at some point as I do like to swim, but nice to know I can make significant changes in my body simply by making better food choices. Thanks for being an inspiration on so many levels. All the best!

Simply put..YOU ROCK! So much of what you wrote about your approach and your feelings about your weight/weight loss absolutely resonated with me. I joined WW a few weeks ago and for the sole reason that I live in NYC and travel and need to be able to eat out. I’m not good with “deprevation” so I needed a plan that allows me the things I love once in a while. Encouraged to hear that you haven’t really added exercise to the mix..you’re right..NYC life is pretty active as it is. I may add something at some point as I do like to swim, but nice to know I can make significant changes in my body simply by making better food choices.

Dear Julie,
I too have lost over 100 pounds and it started 6 years ago. I am in better shape now than I was in my 20’s & 30’s for sure. I still see myself as fat but I am having to buy clothes that are in the short peoples section. I stay between a size 6-8. This is my norm now…and I am just now finally realizing that I am not FAT anymore. It is hard to get through my head as I still see the old me in the mirror….but it is a constant battle not to go into the fat section because that is all I know. It will blow your mind. Good luck to you and YOU ARE NO LONGER FAT!

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts, Julie. Your words about motivation and happiness were just what I needed to “hear” this morning.

Julie,
Several days ago you asked “what inspires you”….I wrote a short message and then ‘lost’ it in cyberspace before I got it sent.
I have been following you daily for about a year.I save your messages in a folder so I can go back anytime to read or review what you have done or said.
You have become a ‘best friend’ even though we have never met. I eat breakfast with you every morning.
When you wrote about losing 100 pounds and having gotten a divorce I connected with you even more. I have struggled with weight all my life and have gone through 2 divorces. I am not an artist but love to dabble in many forms of art and have a great appreciation for ALL forms.
You are glowing girl! You have an awesome smile and it is showing in the ‘After’ pictures. Keep inspiring us… and know that there are more of us than you will ever know!!!

This was a great post. The biggest change I see in you is that you look 10 years younger and I love, love your hair. I’m sure you’ve got many of us thinking – hey, I can do that!

I had great success on WW online about 10 years ago and have since gained back all I had lost due to a bunch of different self sabatoge reasons. Thanks for sharing this and reminding me how well WW can work. I just may bite the bullet and join again. Congrats Julie. You look awesome!

Julie – thanks so much for sharing your journey. You’ve done an amazing job at changing your life style. I’m so happy for you. Your hair looks great!!! You look fab and it shows!!! Getting “hot” is fun – and I’m sure you work it! I had some classes with you in Chicago at CREATE that I still rave about to all of my friends. I’ve gotten more motivated in my art making and have been really productive this summer. I wish my husband saw it as more valuable. I need to get more motivated with my food too – I have about 30 pounds to drop, which doesn’t sound like a lot, but smaller amounts are harder to drop – sucks. If you’re ever up to posting about your divorce, I think that could help give perspective to a lot of people too.
You rock – before and now! I’ve always loved your art and your dynamo personality! Thanks for sharing!

I’m glad you shared. It’s strange, but I know more about people who’s blogs I read daily than I know about my own friends and family. We share online daily. I believe I know you and some of the other gals on here. I don’t think we have to be afraid to share our feelings. I bet if my art was “stuck” I’d ask for advice and all of you would suggest solutions!!! OK. I’m done with the Philosophy! LOL

Meant to mention this the other day but I love that you are wearing more colors or at least you seem to be 🙂 It’s a common thing for bigger people to wear black & dark colors to hide behind – hand up, I’m guilty of that! Now you have color around you in all ways!
Ps. Great to hear you’re dating 🙂 x

wow! thank you so much for sharing…i know how difficult that can be. if your heart can handle it…I would totally recommend having an artist/photographer friend do a photo shoot with you…including a few boudoir shots for no one else but you. I did that when i lost a bunch of weight (i am still not small) and still didn’t really feel beautiful. When she showed me the pictures i was amazed. It was the best gift I have ever received even though it was really hard to be the subject. you are so beautiful and your art and expression is gloriously radiant! :]

We never know how God is going to use our lives and His gifts to help ourselves and others…and just look at how He is working through you! thank you Julie!

Julie you look amazing! I loved reading your story and your healthy, easy-going approach to the whole thing. I can relate in so many ways. I get so tired of hearing about people going on fad diets and crazy intense workouts. I’ve lost almost a hundred pounds myself in the last few years and I never EVER exercised either. lol! Just making the right nutrition choices like you said and the weight melts off. Slowly but surely is the best way to go to, especially to avoid the loose skin thing. I think that happens more when you lose too fast. I have 2 words: COCONUT OIL! Use it as a moisturizer all over your body and not only will it improve your skin but it even works magic on stretch marks 🙂 Anyway thanks for writing this very inspiring post! Congrats on your success!!!

Julie, Congratulations!!! I think you look terrific.
Regarding the traveling. This might work for you; it has helped me. I’m a diabetic vegan who follows a very low carb diet. I lost 30 pounds after my diagnosis. I did it all through diet (I know, I should exercise…)
When I travel, I bring some of my own food. Starkist makes these tuna packets that you can keep in your hotel room. IF you have a fridge there, you can bring some mayo in a jar (or mayo packets), some plastic utensils, some pita or other wraps, and make an easy sandwich. I also bring Adkins drinks (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry). I bring my own cereal mix and soy milk in a carton. I also rely heavily on Adkins snack bars and mixed nuts.
Again, congratulations and best wishes!

Julie, your story is awesome and a very good example for many women needing guidance on losing weight.
A great way to stay on track is to read about healthy food and the effects on your body, there are tons of great books. Once you have that information in your mind, making the right decision regarding food is very easy.
keep up the good work!

I lost weight 40 years ago. I kept it off. But I still think of myself as fat, I always go to the larger sizes when I go to buy some clothes. I was fat from 12 years old, and I think it imprinted on my brain.

Congratulations ! even if I rarely leave comments, I have been following your blog for years, you are a great source of inspiration to me, and I am really happy for you that you made it !!
But anyway, 100 pounds more or 100 pounds less, you still are the same nice person, what is really important, though people look at you another way !!

Along with everyone else I think you are amazing and inspiring in every way – so keep up the GOOD (sometimes HARD) WORK. You are simply glowing! I love to hear exercise was not the key to your weight loss, it really is the food. My husband did a great job loosing over 20 lbs with the Fitness Pal APP its truly the calories that count! Keep writing, making art and inspiring us everyday! Susan

I had to come back and read all that a second time. Having dieted once with great success but now it is back on, I’m looking for that motivation. I totally agree with you that there is something inside you that just drives it and does it with passion and almost obsession. I wish I could get that back. I wish you the very best for keeping it off, going places with your career, and the utmost happiness.
P.S. What a revelation to me that NY living is ordering in food deliveries constantly! It’s a good thing my little town doesn’t have that option. LOL

So proud of you! I too am a WW success story– I lost 50 lbs last year and I still count my points and stay “on plan” every day. As you said it has to be a life long commitment.
I didn’t do any exercise until after I lost my weight. Now I try to walk and do a exercise tape every once in a while.
I needed the face to face meetings but do love the online support too.
Now you are just a beautiful on the outside as you always have been on the inside.

Congratulations on a truly wonderful and impressive accomplishment!
I noticed that some of the people commenting mention their own difficulties with losing weight. I suggest they might want to check out the Wheat Belly blog. This blog documents scientific research showing that wheat contains several unique factors that cause food cravings and thus why many people have found that eliminating wheat has made it much easier to stick to their diet plans.

This blog documents scientific research showing that wheat contains several unique factors that cause food cravings and thus why many people have found that eliminating wheat has made it much easier to stick to their diet plans.

You certainly put yourself out there so others can find happiness through art and inspiration. Now you’re inspirational on a whole new level. Thanks for sharing your personal journey with us.

What I have noticed over the last several months is how beautiful your face is! The personal changes you have made have you radiating 🙂
Try dry brushing you skin daily. This will help with tightening and removing toxins. Continued success to you.

I’ve admired your art since discovering you on the PBS show Scrapbook Soup which used to air in my area. I was so happy to see your work on the Simon Says Stamp blog…and found your blog. It was inspiring to read about your weight loss journey…so honest and real. You are so on target…embracing this way to healthy living is a life long journey…thank you for sharing.

This is fascinating. I wish I could take the journey with you. I guess I should go for a walk now. Imagine how many people you are inspiring outside of art.

Thank you for this great post with so much information, and personal experience! Thank you for your courage and for sharing this. I think you look great and happy on your pictures, and I’m thinking of looking at this WW program (having weight to lose myself). Thank you.

Julie I think you look absolutely great but I liked you before too because you did not let your wt hold you back. You seemed confident and self assured. You are a beautiful talented artist now and you were before you lost wt. Thanks for sharing so frankly about your life changes. It surely inspires all of us to explore our artistic sides and to become more healthy.

Awesome journey. I agree with Hali…you seem more radiant…if that is possible, since you have an inner radiance that exudes in your videos and postings. Cheering you on your journey.

Thank you for reposting this and I can see why it made your 2013 top 10 posts. I just started following you a few mths ago even though I focus more on scrapbooking, but now I’m all about my art journal and I have you to thank … it is literally therapy for my soul, it’s stunning what I write about, and it is in some ways very freeing. I also listen to your podcasts when I am driving to work and hope that you continue to do that in the coming year, I always gain insight, and the reminder that I don’t have to be perfect and to just do it. You’re such a great teacher, seriously, your free tutorial on stenciling showed me everything I was doing wrong, now I love stencils! Just started your lettering class, love it! Anyway, thanks for the inspiration, the insight and all best in 2014!

You look great Julie, I’m a fan of your work and seeing you healthier makes me happy as an artist and a woman. It is not very smart to make how we look our identities, however it is part of it. Great job stranger sister!

I’m a major fan and LOVE your amazing art. Your weight loss is fabulous…it’s a struggle, I know. I had gastric bypass surgery several years ago and loss a little over 100 lbs. I’ve gained back about 30 of those pounds. Haven’t given up and am back on track. The BEST thing about my weight loss was not having to buy clothes in the “fat ladies” section of a store (usually located as far away from “normal-sized” clothes as possible) and also not having the humiliating experience of having to ask for a seatbelt extension on a plane. Wish I had thousands of fans “watching” me…I could resist that bag of chips easier. All your fans are cheering you on…you’re doing great.

Hi Julie, I live in New Zealand and have seen your online shows, but not for along time, ie years. I am so shocked to see the dramatic change in you and all I can say is what an awesome achievement for you. I have lost 30lbs in the last year, and know how that makes me feel, but I can only imagine how you must feel inside. Congratulations Bernadine

I am really excited for you (3 years later)! I recently found that intrinsic motivation and I’m in it for health and for life now. I’m respecting my journey and not giving up. You are an inspiration for many reasons.

It is a journey to loose the weight, and You look great. I started WW about 1 month and half ago. I’ve lost a few pounds but it feels like I should be able to get it off faster. I’m so happy to see someone that has been truly successful on this program, it gives me encouragement to keep going. I watch your videos on the brothers scan n cut and I love the enthusiasm you bring to the videos. Thank you for sharing your journey.
