Nickey lost 60 pounds

May 16, 2015 by Ajima Jackson 1 Comment

Weight Loss Story of the Day: Nickey lost 60 pounds, going from a size 20 to a size 10/12.  Her motivation was wanting to be there for her children for the long haul.  She shared with us about how she released the weight..

nickey before and after

Over the past four years I had gained so much weight.  I weighed 230 pounds and I’m 5’4″ tall.  My children where my motivation because I wanted to be around to raise them, so I was on my way to loosing weight.

I kept telling myself you are getting too big and unhealthy.  I started suffering from high blood pressure and I noticed that I had gained over 50 lbs.  I knew that I needed to do something about this weight.  I started walking  four laps around the track three time a week. On days that I couldn’t go to the track, I walked around by blocks. I didn’t just stop eating. I changed how much I was eating by eating certain foods in moderation and changing my portion sizes.  I also stopped eating a lot of fried foods. Instead, I grilled, baked, and broiled what I ate.  I did this for about six months and I lost 60 lbs. Now I’m down to 170 pounds. I went from wearing a size 20 to wearing a size 10/12 and I no longer have to take blood pressure medicine.
