Featured Weight Loss Success Story: Tiffany lost 79 pounds. This proud nurse was battling fibromyalgia and created a weight loss plan for herself that worked with her needs. Here is what she shared about her 8 month journey:
“My motivation to lose weight was the pain caused by fibromyalgia coupled with my graduation from nursing school. I started eating more and set my phone for a meal reminder every three hours at first until I built up my metabolism. Medications had erased my appetite. I did the Insanity DVD until I pulled a groin muscle, then I followed that with Hip Hop Abs. I am way too self conscious to go to a gym. When I hit my first plateau, I started taking a weight loss supplement. I went from 234 pounds in the first picture to 155 pounds in the second. I currently work out 3 times a week, mostly cardio, because weight training is actually harder for me with the fibromyalgia. My transformation took eight months and now it’s all about maintenance. I eat clean and do not drink soda. I allow for cheat hours, not days. I also eat the majority of my food in the am, my most active time of the day. My biggest piece of advice is to get a group of friends who understand your journey. For me, it was a young lady named Charmaine Legrone and the ladies of Project Body Back. When I wanted to quit, they held me up. Sometimes just one person saying good work pushes you that much further. I was blessed with hundreds. Thank you and I hope my story helps someone. I’m @tchunt80 on Twitter and instagram. Thank you.”
