Today’s weight loss success story: LaTasha lost 62 pounds.
“After having 3 kids (9yr old, 7yr old and 3 yr old) I just couldn’t get my weight back under control. I needed a change so I began my weight loss journey January 1 2012 and never looked back! I’ve lost 62lbs so far. I workout 5 to 6 days a wk, I eat less and try to make better food choices. I used to hate working out, now feel bad when I miss a day. I can’t afford a gym membership or a trainer so I do it on my own. My weight loss secret is simply hard work and dedication.
As far as eating habits, there is almost nothing I tell myself I can’t have because that will make me want it more! So moderation is the key for me, no more downing a big bag of Munchos in one sitting. I just try to eat less and added more fruits and vegetables into my diet. I only drink water but when I need some flavor I add lemon or a pack of Crystal Light. I can’t afford a gym membership/trainer so I workout at home using dvds (such as Jillian Michaels and Billy Blanks), kettlebells, stability ball. When the weather is warm I try to jog on a track at the local high school. But my favorite thing to do lately is Wii Zumba Fitness Core. It’s sooo much fun!”

Congratulations. You are truly an inspiration. Everyone I’ve talked to always say that a trainor is needed. I even went as far as hiring one at $150 a week, but could not afford to keep it up. Maybe I will take your story and use it for my inspiration. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.

I can so relate to your story! After two kids and a divorce, I battle each day trying to find time to join this widely popular bootcamp class in my area. Yesterday, I decided to plug in my elliptical, for the first time in 3 years. Now that I see you have success working out at home (by the way I have both Zumba Games and have never used it), you have definitely motivated and inspired me today!

Dear Ms. Natasha. Here’s to making it do what it do!!!!! You are to be commended for making this work when it is so much easier to say, “…..because I don’t have or because I can’t go! You have done an excellent job and you should be proud to be an inspiration to those of us who can come up with the excuse for not doing the right thing. Kudos!
