Mesha lost 94 pounds

Transformation of the Day: Mesha lost 94 pounds. During pregnancy and after giving birth to her daughter, she experienced significant weight gain. She has worked to release the weight with HIIT training, cardio, and a plant-based diet. 

When did you start your journey?
My weight loss journey began in 2015.

What was your motivation?
After gaining so much weight with when I was pregnant with my daughter (and continuing to gain weight to add on after that), my weight reached 318 pounds. 

One day, my daughter ran in the street, and I couldn’t catch her! No cars came, thank God, but that was my wake up call. 

How did you change your eating habits?
Through the years, I have tried many diets and many workout plans, but ultimately what I have been doing for the last year is eliminating red meat and pork from my diet. I’m keeping my eating habits as close to plant-based as I can! 

What does your workout routine consist of?
I do my best to work out 4-5 times a week, doing a mix of HIIT and cardio. 

How much weight have you lost so far?
My biggest goal is to reach 100 pounds lost, and so far I have lost 94 pounds.

What is your height?
I’m 5’11. 

What advice do you have for people who want to lose weight?
This journey has been trial and error for me. The best thing I can say in terms of advice: Listen to your body and do what works for you . With so many diets and new quick fixes out there, it is easy to compare your progress to the progress made by other people. I hope my story will help other mothers and any one who reads this to keep going!!
