Hi, my name is Gwen White and I wanted to share my progress with you during my journey to a smaller me. This site is dedicated to all the 40 and over competitors who realize life isn't over yet!!!

You ask, what does it take? It takes a change in mindset.....and diet. The biggest change was my diet. I cut out fried foods, excessive starches and Pepsi. I drink more water, diet drinks (within reason) and a bunch of Crystal Lite Rasberry. I also work with Beverly International and I was encouraged to compete in an amateur fitness competition in March 2005.

I started in October 2004 and have stuck with the program. Actually, this is the fourth time I have tried to do a weight loss program. This time I am finally succeeding. There has to be alot of patience added too!
