I was your typical yo-yo dieter. Each time I lost weight I felt great and looked beautiful, but those feelings would only last a short time before I would find myself returning to my old eating habits and the weight would return.  I needed to exercise and believe in myself that I could loss the weight and keep if off for good. I was devastated that I had gained 40 pounds from being a yo-yo dieter. I really was ashamed of myself.
 
What's worse is that my doctor diagnosed me with type 2 diabetes. I was devastated. I was suffering from high blood pressure, high cholesterol, elevated blood glucose levels and severe knee pain from the excess weight, so I was put on high blood pressure and cholesterol medication. After receiving my diagnosis, I knew I needed to take back my life and my health, or my future would be determined for me.

I knew I needed to do something about my weight and health. I decided to joined Linda Brooks’ Health and Fitness Program.  Her motto is, “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13). It was one of the best decisions I ever made, because my motivation and energy increased significantly and my pain was reduced as I started losing weight. I thank God for Linda Brooks and all her encouragement and her Health and Fitness Program. She helped me every step along the way. I’m more active than I ever been.
 
Today, I have a lot more energy, I am much more confident and happy, and I feel great in knowing I made the right decision in getting my life back.  I like how I look, and I love the person I have become! My doctor is so pleased and impressed with my weight loss and my commitment to overall being healthy.
