Let’s show some Black Women Losing Weight love to Beverly on her 86 pounds weight loss. She went from 300+ pounds down to 215 pounds after being diagnosed pre-diabetic.
My name is Beverly, I’m 50 years old and this has been a journey. I was at my highest weight at 301 pounds in June of 2012. I now weigh 215 pounds thanks to wanting to lose weight and exercise, along with healthy eating. I give credit to God for the walks and talks thru this life changing experience!!
I was back and forth to the Emergency Room with difficulty breathing and numerous EkG’s. I was diagnosed Pre-Diabetic with Hypertension. I prayed and ask God for help. I thought I was dying. Weighing 300+ pounds was like carrying 2 people. I began to walk everyday. I did 30 minutes out and 30 minutes back in. In addition, I stopped drinking soda and unhealthy snacks. Now, I eat less junk food and more fruit and vegastables. I went from size 24 pants to size 16 and I feel great!!
