I am from La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico. I am 28 years old. My story begins with me weighing 300 pounds.
In short, I have been obese all my life, since I was very young. That brought health complications, I couldn't breathe well, I got tired very quickly doing simple tasks and I started to have skin manifestations due to insulin resistance at an early age, that made my childhood and adolescence very difficult.
My parents were very worried about me and my health. I had tried everything to lose weight but still had no good results. In 2009 I made the decision to have surgery, the bariatric doctor recommended a gastric sleeve, but even so he told me that I had to lose weight to reduce the risks and complications, because even though I was young (18 years old), there were risks .
After a lot of exercise and diets, I managed to lose 118 kilos and was finally able to have surgery. It was amazing how I started losing weight very, very quickly. I was very happy but no one told me that after surgery it would be difficult to get the nutrients I needed. This brought new complications, such as anemia, which took me a long time to control. I had to take all the supplements I could and "tried" to do the best I could.
And I say “tried” because the amounts I was able to consume were absurd! Both food and liquids. I remember there were so many multivitamins that I had to take them throughout the day because I just couldn't take them all at once; I was filling my stomach with food or pills. I had to eat several times a day and still did not meet my requirements, I was hungry all the time. Sometimes I just smelled the food, because I knew my body wouldn't tolerate eating it.
This situation lasted a long time and more complications began to appear. My hair fell out a lot and my skin was always dry no matter how much lotion and oils I put on.
In the first year after surgery I was down to 150 pounds and honestly, I never felt good. Taking supplements on a daily basis was necessary to cope with my day to day life. I suffered from dizziness every day, I passed out several times.
About two years after surgery, I began to gain weight. He still wasn't eating much, so he couldn't understand why it kept increasing. I tried to exercise and went on a “diet”, but no, nothing worked. It felt like my body was taking its toll.
Time passed and I returned to 115 kilos, almost the same as when I had surgery. I had so many conflicting emotions inside me, so much effort, so much suffering, so much damage that I had done to my body that it wasn't enough, I was back where I started or even worse.
My mother, who was a doctor, seeing my suffering and how it was getting worse, began to investigate what supplements I could take to be healthier. Fortunately, one of her friends from her health area was taking YOR Health, and that's how I found out about the YOR Best Body challenge and the products.
I began to nourish my body, and little by little my health and energy returned to normal.
The chocolate YOR Shake is my favorite thing in the world, it's like a dessert for me and it fits perfectly into my lifestyle. The YOR SuperGreens is the same, every time I take it it's like having a body full of vitality. I always carry my YOR Digest Ultra, YOR Repair Ultra and YOR Essential Vitamins pill box.
My life changed a lot with YOR Health because the number of servings and pills I had to take was drastically reduced and from the first days of taking it I began to feel better.
It has not been an easy journey, much less an immediate one. But today I am at the lowest weight I have ever been in my life, which is 65 kilos, even less than when I had surgery! The important thing for me is not the physical change, although I have to admit that I love it, it is knowing that I am healthy. I am completely excited to know that my body works as it should thanks to good nutrition and supplementation, and a different lifestyle. I feel full of energy, I eat delicious food and I definitely love inspiring other people to achieve their goals.
Without a doubt, I am in the best shape of my life and I am 100% sure that I could not have done it without the help of YOR Health products.
This became a lifestyle, it doesn't feel like a diet/medication but like my day to day. It's amazing how the body reacts to the love we give it through good nutrition.
“Undoubtedly, I’m in the best shape of my life and I’m 100% sure that I couldn’t have achieve it without the help from YOR Health products”
