Taffy lost 70 pounds

Transformation of the Day: Taffy lost 70 pounds, going from a size 18 to a size 10. When she was no longer happy with what she saw in the mirror, she knew it was time to change. Clean eating and regular exercise were the tools she used. Check out what she shared with us…

My Name is Taffy. What inspired me to lose weight was when I stepped on the scale and it read 250 pounds. That is the heaviest I’ve every been. After looking in the mirror and not being happy with what I saw motivated me to jump into the gym. I also changed my eating habits.

I would eat every 2 hours. I cut out sugar, cut out bread and I upped my protein intake. I also started drinking a gallon of water with lemon every day. I worked out 6 days a week. I started lifting heavy and did an hour of cardio a day.

My current weight is 180 pounds at 5’4″ tall.  I was a size 18 and now I’m a size 10. My goal is to be a size 8. It took me 8 months to see this transformation. I didn’t use any drugs, it was all natural.

My advice for others who want to lose weight: Stick to your diet! Take before and after pictures every 30 days. When/if you get discouraged, look back at your photos and they will motivate you to keep going. Also, never compare yourself to others. Just take it one day at a time and don’t just look for results. Look to make eating clean and working out a life long habit.
