Leslie’s Story
It was several years ago that I realized that I had to make some serious changes to improve my health. It was a lightbulb moment. Our granddaughter would have sleepovers at our house and I had no upper body strength to pick her up if she fell. I had a friend who was fairly well versed in fitness and diet, so she helped me to get started. It was nothing crazy…cleaner eating, not a lot less processed food, several workouts a week of cardio and strength, strength training and a lot of walking. I lost 50 pounds and I have sustained this .The most important thing I learned is that motivation waxes and wanes, but being consistent and committed to do what needs to be done got me through and still gets me through. It is now a habit like brushing my teeth.
