Weighing over 235 pounds at the age of 22, @Kendall_is_Poison was out of shape and extremely unhealthy. Accustomed to the college life of eating whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted had finally caught up to her and she was ready for a change. Read her change below.
In the summer of 2009 while visiting my doctor for a physical, I was informed that I was in danger of having diabetes, high cholesterol, and several other risks all because of my unhealthy lifestyle. I thought to myself that I was way to young to live my life that way. I went home that day and got on the treadmill. I was extremely embarrassed. I knew that I was obese but I didn’t know how bad it was. The journey the first year and a half was extremely difficult because I was doing it on my own. My friends didn’t really understand why I wanted to change all of a sudden.
Soooo…basically first thing I did was BOUGHT A NEW DRESS…I was a size 18 and I bought a size 10 dress with the side cut out. why not? GoHardOrGoHome! I hung it up in my bedroom so I could see it often. I also bought a treadmill and put it in my bedroom. When it was time to workout I would pull out my long mirror and my dress and jog….and walk…and jog…I AM NOT A RUNNER. When I got tired of the treadmill I bought an elliptical machine and did the same thing. Got bored with that and moved to insanity for a while…I loved it!!! I loved to sweat and I tried to hang in there with the professional athletes they hired lol. I lost over 70 pounds in one year. I kept that weight off for a few years then decided I wanted to lose a little more and tone up. I created “ I WORKOUT TO LOOK GOOD NAKED,” because I needed motivation to get back into the swing of things. I workout to look good naked is more than a T-Shirt slogan, I have an online for club for ladies and gentlemen who could use a little extra support on their fitness journey. I have started toning my body and I’ve fallen in love with the process. I’d like for anyone who is looking for extra motivation to join my online fit club. Staying motivated has been my biggest challenge, but with the support of my online family I know I will be successful. If I can go from 235 to 145, a size 18 to 6, I know you can too.
