My name is Christy McDade. Right before I hit age 51, I ballooned to 248 pounds! Worse, my cortisol levels were high, due to stress.
I was working 10-12 hours a day. Mostly of those days were without a break! Sleep was lacking. My appetite and weight were up and down.
Being diabetic, I had to watch my sugar intake. But you know how it is. Sometimes, I couldn't resist a sugar hit! It got harder to stay in shape.
I couldn't go on long walks. Plus, going to the gym felt like the last thing I wanted to do. The idea of lifting weights or running on a treadmill seemed impossible.
I wanted to feel better, do more, and get into better shape. I just didn't have the energy or time to do it.
That all changed one day, when someone I cared about got a health scare.
That "someone" I care about is my husband. On the spot, he decided he wanted to be healthier and be around for me.
But I had my reasons to get in the best shape of my life. I wanted to:
Be around for my three adult children, and any future grandbabies I can get (fingers crossed)!
Stop feeling tired, so I could go walking on the path we see everyday from our deck.
Have lower stress, so I can feel good, and be in a good mood (sorry honey)!
Mood swings because toxins affect your central nervous system and hormones.
The biggest reason was I wanted to reboot my life! I wanted to get healthier, too! So, I got "scared healthy", and decided to do something about I had been avoiding...
Like you, I tried every trick, tip, and weight loss gimmick out there. But nothing worked. Then I realized what would work for me.
All I had to do was make small changes in my health and lifestyle. I said goodbye to...
