Weight Loss Transformation of the Day: Keisha lost 95 pounds. This young lady decided that enough was enough and that it was time to stop digging her own grave with a fork. She shared with us about how she took action to lose the weight…
My name is Keisha and I began my weight loss journey on March 1st 2013 at 291.6 pounds. I am currently at 195 pounds. My motivation to get started was that I was 290 lbs at 19 years old with a 2 year old daughter to live for. I saw that I was digging my own grave with my knife and fork, so I decided that enough was enough! I began my journey with a 7 day detox and then made small changes to my diet. I do not eat red meat anymore (strictly for weight loss purposes) and I also cut back on fried food. After weighing myself in the first week of my journey and realizing that I had lost 12 pounds, I knew I could do it. For exercise, I began doing TaeBo videos from YouTube at home 6-7 days a week. I also began eating much healthier. In 18 months, I lost 95 pounds (I am 5’8” tall). The first step to real weight loss is to lose all of your excuses. Sometimes it is tough. Trust me, this is the HARDEST thing that I have ever done in my life, but the rewarding feeling of being comfortable in my own skin is a feeling I would never trade for the world.
