Lost 20 pounds in just 4 weeks.I was always viewed as fairly thin when I was younger. After I had my two children which are just 14 Months apart I never had the chance to lose my extra baby weight, instead it remained a part of me regardless of how much I worked out. Having a mother that was very overweight I began to see my mother struggling with knee problems to the point that she couldn’t even walk, having her heart racing at night, hearing the doctor telling her that her arteries were clogged or seeing her take her handful of medications for Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure… I would head to the gym and workout even harder. Last year I worked out and hour per day for 365 days in the year and the scale still remained a steady 150 lbs. The fat still remained around my hips, butt and stomach. I then went for a physical and the doctor told me I should shed some pounds and that my Cholesterol was a borderline score of 220. I was shocked as I thought I was a healthy eater (not eating the McDonalds, sweets or any other obvious bad type of food) and I couldn’t possibly work out even more than I did. This became a wake-up call to me that I needed to do things differently. Within the first week of starting the program I began to lose inches around my waist, butt and stomach. I was dropping pounds every week consistently to eventually totaling 20 lbs in just 4 short weeks. I went from a size 10 to a size 2 in clothing. I was so taken back by the experience that I became a licensed Health Coach within a few weeks on the program. I have coached over 1k different clients (Desiring to learn Optimal Exercising and Eating Behaviors, Reducing Stress, Regaining Energy, Teens, Diabetics, with Sleep Apnea or High Blood Pressure or Cholesterol), but my biggest success has been to have my mother as part of my client base.
