Awesome Transformation: Brittany lost 70 pounds. During her pregnancy in 2013, she gained 45 pounds. After giving birth, she was on a mission to change her lifestyle and lose the weight. She shared with us about how she took action and stayed dedicated.
Starting weight: 205 pounds
Current weight: 135 pounds
Height: 5’4″
In 2013, I gave birth to my son. During pregnancy, I gained a total of 45 pounds and weighed 205 pounds. That was the heaviest I have ever been. I was very uncomfortable with myself and my self esteem was very low, because of the weight.
After the doctor gave me the okay to workout, I changed my lifestyle completely. I eliminated all processed foods and began cooking with fresh veggies and eating lean meats. After 6 months, I was back down to my pre-pregnancy weight. Yay!
It didn’t stop there, I was determined to continue my health journey and lose 30 more pounds. I started using Herbalife products and replacing two meals a day with shakes. That was a year ago and it was the best decision of my life! Now, I am at my goal weight and I couldn’t be happier!
My workout routines consist of strength training 5 days a week. I also incorporate cardio 3 days a week. That usually consists of HIIT cardio routines on the treadmill, as well as outdoor cardio (running hills and trails or riding bikes).
In the beginning, I did more cardio than strength training and I lost the weight. However, that wasn’t helping me to tone and build muscle. After having a consultation with a trainer, he informed me that I needed to limit my cardio and increase my strength training. That’s when I started to see more results!
To all my ladies, I can tell you that anything is possible. You just have to be dedicated, motivated and want it more than life!
