On my 40th birthday last week, I was in better shape and weighed less than I have my entire adult life. For the past several years I have struggled so much with my weight and was always trying to “lose the last 10 pounds”. After gaining 15lbs over the holidays last year I decided that I was not going to turn 40 and be 40lbs overweight. So I talked to my husband and I called Dennis at Healthy Inspirations. That was the beginning of a life changing experience for me. I met with the staff of Healthy Inspirations and began to meet some of the most kind, motivating people I have ever met. Every time I come in to the Center I feel like I have a group of cheerleaders there to cheer me on. Even when I come in and I have deviated from the plan they motivate me and help me to get through the difficult times. Since my start date of January 5th, my life has changed in ways I really didn’t expect. The original goal that I set for myself I have surpassed by 17 pounds. I have reached a weight that is lower and healthier than any weight I have been. I now look at exercise as MY time for myself. Instead of inconvenience it’s an enjoyment. I enjoy the time I take every week to walk/run and work out at the Center to just be me, no phones ringing and no interruptions. Physically, I feel better than I ever have in my life. My blood pressure is the lowest it has ever been. I am wearing sizes that I still can’t believe fit me! Mentally, I’m happier with who I am and am more comfortable in my own skin than ever. I know I did the work but I also know that I could not have done it without the unending support of my loving husband and of course without the guidance and support of my friends at Healthy Inspirations. I would like to thank Dennis and all the lovely women at Healthy Inspirations for always making me see that I could do it. I would also like to thank them for the constant support and “cheerleading”. Every one of the people at this Center is fabulous and is changing lives every day in many ways. I can never thank you enough!
