Karina lost 117 pounds

Awesome Weight Loss Story: Our Brazilian sista Karina wrote in to share how she lost 117 pounds, down from 368 pounds. Great job!

My name is Karina Farias. My highest weight was 167 kilos (368 pounds) and currently weigh 114 kilos (251 pounds). I decided to change my life. I made the decision that I no longer wanted to be obese. That’s when I started to make an effort to learn more about nutrition, which helped me to drop 20 kilos (44 pounds) in six months.

I started eating more healthy food, like greens, cereals, skim milk. I also dark plenty of water. I did a one hour walk three times a week, which helped me a lot too. I passed from 134 kilos to 114 kilos. My goal is to reach 70 kilos (154 pounds) and I’m calling it. My motto is : I want to, I can, I can. I truly overcame and I’m very happy to share my story with others.
