LaQuita lost 65 pounds

Proud mom LaQuita lost 65 pounds and found Kale to be a great superfood. Here is what she shared about her weight loss journey:

“I am a mother of 5 and a wife. My motivation was my children! I wanted to get healthy for them to ensure I will be around for them. And be able to stay active with them. I changed my eating but I also stayed realistic! I cut out dark soda completely. If I just had to have soda, I would drink Sprite and dilute it with water. I drank 8 glasses of water a day. Kale was my best friend during my life change! Kale is a super food that helps with digestion and a natural fat burner. I ate kale twice a day! For breakfast, I would steam and add olive oil along with a boiled egg and a protein drink. For lunch, I would saute the kale along with fresh veggies! For dinner, I ate whatever I wanted. My trick for dinner was using a cake size saucer plate! Anything I ate had to fit on that plate, and I’d have either water or green tea to drink. Occasionally, I would even partake in a glass of red wine. I also exercised 3 times out of the week. I did planks and 100 squats a day. I would walk 1 of the 3 days for 3 hours. I wouldn’t power walk or jog, I just turned on Pandora and walked! Also, I small trick I learned is after you shower at night, while in a steamed filled restroom, drink a bottle of water with fresh squeezed lemon. For whatever reason, doing that kept the fat burning at night while I slept. I started at 195 pounds, now I’m down to 130 pounds! The best advice I could possibly give is never consider your transformation a diet it is a life change! Keep it simple and realistic! Stay postivive and most all know your are investing and reassuring your existence! Set small goals for yourself! Starving yourself is the absolute worst thing you can do. Remember its not what you eat that plays the part its how much you eat. The cake size saucer helped a lot with portion control. Water really is your best friend it helps detox the body! Wishing everyone good luck on your life change. I am always available for support or to answer questions.”
