Shawntia before and after
She says,
“Hello ladies! Im Shawntia and I love this site. People need motivation &*inspiration like this for weight loss.   I myself has struggle with weight loss throughout my whole life. As a mother of 2 I had to do something about my weight. So I started running and walking everyday, and doing Zumba at home. Once I started noticing that I was losing weight I got a gym membership. Started eating healthier and smaller portions. Now after a year I’m almost at my goal weight.”
Thank you so much for sharing with us, Shawntia!!!

  1. Shawntia, thank you so much for sharing your story. I am in the same boat…I have four kids and I’m at 205. I have been struggling to lose weight for the past year. I’ll get motivated and start exercising, then I’ll stop because I’ll get discouraged when I don’t see results fast enough. But seeing that you did it and you are at the weight that I want to be, makes me motivated to try again and keep at it! Thank you for sharing again!

  2. I think you did it the healthy way. You started excersise and healthier eating. I too started a plan to lose weight almost identical to yours at the end of January 2012. With no diet supplements, or shakes. Just excersise and a healthier diet, I have lost 26lbs. It may not came off fast, but it came off and stayed off. Just stay on your course and you will obtain your goal. I’m rooting for you.
