Featured weight loss success story of the day: Kimberly lost 110 pounds in a little over 8 months. She primarily credits the changes she made to her eating habits. Here is what she had to say about losing the weight:
“I lost 110 pounds over 8 months primarily by changing how I ate. The dietary changes began mentally. I DECIDED NOT to die or have complications from diabetes. I began to pray. I was asking GOD for answers to why I had so many bouts of 30 day constipation and blood sugars levels of 350 plus all the time!!! I was enlightened and found that meat was my issue. Eating it with every meal, every day was killing my body. Immediately after cutting just meat out of my daily consumption, I lost 20 pounds in 30 days (no exercise yet). After seeing that, I decided to see what wound happen if I didn’t put ANYTHING in my mouth that was bad. That’s right, I ate NOTHING but fruits, veggies, whole grains and water for a solid year and was exercising for half of that time. After losing about 50 pounds, I starting doing a standing ab routine for about 5 days a week for 30 minutes per session. Because I had changed my mind about food, it seemed like I woke up skinny!!! I went from 280 pounds to 170 pounds in one year. Now, I am a comfortable at 180 pounds and 5’6” tall! I have put some “treats” back in every now and then, but am still enjoying a healthy lifestyle!!”
