A New Body & $500 – My Mom’s Shakeology Story
Yes, that’s MY mom. Isn’t she just fabulous? I’ve shared my Shakeology and body transformation stories, so I wanted to share hers too. She shared her Shakeology success story with Beachbody and ended up winning $500 in their Beachbody Challenge. I’m so thrilled for her, plus I know she will be keeping up with my kids for a long time to come.
My mom, sister & I hamming it up
Here is her story…
Before I started drinking Shakeology I felt fat and was extremely frustrated with life. I despised having my picture taken and always tried hiding behind someone or something. I would spend hours in my closet hunting for clothes that fit, and when nothing would, I’d get upset thinking that I’d have to buy a bigger size. And when I did go shopping, I felt even worse about myself. Even though I hated the way I looked and felt, I didn’t know what to do, or eat, to change my life.
So when I saw my daughter transform her body with Beachbody products, it inspired me to try. I had used so many other products in the past without any success and was hoping this one was different. Besides, I figured that if I don’t lose weight now, I never will. I was 68, and running out of time and options.
[vision_pullquote style=”3″ align=”right”] I’ve reduced my weight from 164 lbs. to 141, lowered my blood sugar from 110 to 93, and most importantly, lowered my cholesterol from 205 to 148 [/vision_pullquote]
My biggest problem was my addiction to sugar. Once I’d start eating sugar and carb-laden food, I couldn’t stop. And I was hoping that Shakeology did what it said it would do and curb my junk food cravings. And sure enough, it did. Shakeology kept me full and satisfied while keeping my hunger away until my next meal. And not only does it taste so amazing, I love how simple it is to prepare. Plus, it’s easy to take with me when traveling. Thanks to Shakeology, I now eat well-balanced, low-carb meals and have no desire to snack on unhealthy stuff.
I’m just shy of 70 and am most proud of the fact that at my age I took the steps to change my life. By drinking Shakeology for breakfast and slowly becoming more active I’ve reduced my weight from 164 lbs. to 141, lowered my blood sugar from 110 to 93, and most importantly, lowered my cholesterol from 205 to 148. I’ve even astonished my doctors by lowering my LP(a) from 103 to 66. (LP(a) is a marker for heart disease and should be below 75.) The doctors were pleased to see such an improvement in my blood tests.
I’m so proud to have taken my health into my own hands. My family has a history of diabetes, heart disease and osteoporosis, and now I’m at much less risk for any of these things. I now have tons of energy and am so much happier now than before. Having lost weight and achieved this success has given me incredible amounts of confidence and I feel that I can continue to improve my health by slowly adding more exercise into my routine and strengthening my body.
Do you have a success story to share? I would love to hear from you in the comments.
