Looking for some inspiration on how small changes can make a big difference? Check out Danny's story, below.
"I want to share my story which is centered around the
Holiday Challenge. I had no intention of trying to improve my diet or exercise
routine when I first read the email in regard to the Holiday Challenge. I had knee replacement surgery prior to the announcement of
the Challenge. As a result of the surgery and some challenging side effects I
unintentionally lost some weight.
When I saw the email about the challenge I
decided I would make an attempt to continue the weight loss, eat healthier and
begin exercising. I cut back considerably on all junk food and the amount I ate
on a daily basis. I was going to Physical Therapy three times a week and as
there was a noticeable weight loss going on, I decided to buy a recumbent
stationary bike so I could exercise at home. I completed physical therapy and
was invited to continue with independent exercise.
I now go to PT 2-3 times per
week, ride 8-16 miles per day on the bike and I continue to make healthy
choices when eating and drinking. The result, at this point, is I have lost 37
pounds.
It has been years since I have been at this weight and my overall
condition has improved dramatically. Thank you for the nudge that has me
feeling better and according to my wife looking more healthy as well."
Congratulations and thank you to Danny D. for sharing your story.
