My Body is a Temple
Life in general is a roller coaster; similar to my weight, up and down, since I was young. I began eating emotionally when I started dealing with people. I was always very sensitive and caring so when I started to realize not all people are the same way, that people will make fun of you for anything, jealousy exists (even within my own family), and that every family is not like the Brady bunch, it made me really sad, depressed, not able to trust, and sort of a loner. So food was my only friend for a long period of my life.
When I started high school, I began to diet off and on. I began a program, LA Weight Loss, where they give you a diet plan and you come in as often as you can for advice, to stay on track. It worked out for a while, but then I was just getting tired of weighing my foods, having to beg my mom to cook something (I couldn't cook at the time) and having to drive to the center all the time. So I went throughout high school gaining more weight, my highest is 205 lbs.
During my senior year of High School I began exercising aggressively and watching what I ate and went down to 140lbs. During this time I learned a lot about staying healthy and exercising, but even with all this knowledge, it’s hard to stay on track when you don’t know how to deal with your emotions. As I began college, I fell back into my old habits and ended up gaining back 20 lbs.
During the time of the anticipated YOR Health launch I began caring about my health again. When I received the Pre-Launch Package weighed 160 pounds and I decided to begin my aggressive workout routine again..
What the MRP and CompleteBurn have given me is energy. Energy to run on the treadmill, take a step class, then run on the treadmill again and not feel sore or extremely tired from 3hrs of exercise- now that is amazing. I had the MRP for breakfast with two CompleteBurns and an MRP after my workouts. For lunch I would have some sort of protein with a salad and an MRP for dinner. For snacks I would eat fruit or granola bars. So Far I have lost 10 pounds
People don’t enjoy exercising because of the lack of energy and the feeling you get afterwards, but the MRP and CompleteBurn have eliminated that excuse for me and have made exercising more enjoyable. Not only is it convenient and taste good, but it gives you energy and this is all people want in a health product. These are the types of products you can use for a lifetime just to maintain a healthy active life and I now realize that this is what my body needs and deserves. My body is a temple...lol
