Luke 1:37..."For with God nothing shall be impossible"
That
is the foundation that transformed a 5’5 307lb women into a healthy, whole and
fit 181lb woman today. After 126 lbs. lost and still losing; God has been my number
one source, provider, intercessor, healer and motivator. I started my Journey in
July 2011, after the Lord spoke to my spiritual accountability partner about
the enemy’s plan to kill me with morbid obesity. I wore a size 22/24 and weighed over 300lbs.
Most importantly, I had low self- value and esteem and was in abusive relationships
for over 8 years. I found myself being the “other woman” or the “side-line”
piece because I tried replacing my feelings of rejection with male attention.
Between July 2011 and October 2011, I lost 26 lbs., walking 1 hour on my local
track 3 days a week. In October 2011, I joined Weight Watchers and a nutritional
program Body Breakthru. As a
member of these programs I learned lifestyle changes and ways to face my
weight loss challenges. I also joined LA
Fitness and became an avid group fitness participant. Over a total of 15 months
I lost my first 100 lbs. Today I am a size 10/12 and 181 lbs. I am excited to
reach my goal and I continue to add variety and intensity to my workouts. I
also work diligently to stop over eating and emotional eating, as well as to practice
better portion control and honest calories tracking. I have been a motivational
speaker for the Weight Watchers Jennifer Hudson Center in Chicago and I am also
an online personality creating videos about my weight loss journey on LindseyMAdams.com.
