May 2013 – Today’s featured weight loss success story: Ms. Fab lost 86 pounds going from 245 to 159. Ms. Fab (aka. Rita) is a mother of 4, the founder of the Mommy-Make-Over Campaign and of “Girl Talk with Ms. FAB” a motivational program for teen girls.
“I made the decision to change the way I ate felt and looked by looking at this picture (before photo). I knew I had to do something. The biggest issue I had was that I ate my problems away…stress stress stress, so I wondered what if I walked my stress away. I started walking every day, twice a day, in the morning and evening. I went from 1 mile to 7 miles per day. Whatever I was stressed out about I left it at the end of my walk and did not bring it back with me. Water became my love. I started eating right. I began drinking a lot of water and switched out sweets with fruits or veggies (mini carrots are everything). I also use honey. Working out became something I looked forward to everyday. I was finally doing something for myself. Being a wife and a mother of four, I always put weight loss off cause I didn’t think it was important. That was until I lost my first 30 pounds and then I became addicted to my new lifestyle. I love the new found Ms.Fab. I changed completely not just in weight loss. I changed and became who I always was meant to be…..Fabulous!”
