Shatina lost 60 pounds. This young lady wants to inspire single mothers, teachers, open-heart surgery survivors and people who have thyroid issues with her story. Check out her journey.
What was your motivation? What inspired you to keep going, even when you wanted to give up?
My motivation was trying to live a long and healthy life. I wanted to inspire not only other people who struggle with their weight but also single mothers, teachers, open-heart surgery survivors and people who have thyroid issues. When I feel like giving up, I look at old pictures of myself and I encourage myself in the mirror by telling myself, “You got this Beautiful.”
How did you change your eating habits?
I alternate between months: One month is no meat. Then, the next month is nothing white such as rice, potatoes, pasta, and bread.
What did your workout routine consist of?
I work out Monday through Friday at 4:30 am and at 8 am on Saturdays for 30 to 45 minutes. Depending on my trainer’s schedule, I do weight training in the gym at least two to three times a week in the evening.
What was your starting weight? What is your current weight?
My starting weight was 300 pounds and my current weight is 240 pounds.
What is your height?
5’2″
When did you start your journey?
July 2018. I’m still a working progress
What is the biggest lesson you’ve learned?
Be stronger than your own doubts. Also, when you don’t want to work out, you should anyway
What advice do you have for people who want to lose weight?
Always remember why you started and don’t get comfortable.
