Chantel's Weight Loss Story!
When did you become unhappy with your weight?
I had issues with my waist size. I was athletic, but could never
tone or lose the extra pounds.
What made you decide to lose weight?
I made myself enter a figure competition because I was sick of
complaining about it and nothing ever changed.
What were the most important changes you made to lose weight?
Diet! I always exercised, but never considered diet to be equally
important.
What was most challenging about losing weight?
It was a huge commitment between training and diet, but the hardest
was giving up sweets until cheat days.
How long did it take you to start to see results?
It took 2 weeks on a clean diet to see my weight drop, but my
energy increased within 3 days.
How long did it take for you to reach your current weight?
I lost 20 pounds slowly in 9 months, but lost 36 pounds in the
last 3 months.
How long have you maintained your weight loss and how do you do
it?
I am within my 10 pounds of my competition weight a month later
and plan to maintain until my next contest diet. I did it with
a lean diet and exercise plan.
How has your life changed now that you've lost weight?
I feel so much more confident and happy with my personal success.
I accomplished a goal I never thought would be obtained a year
ago.
How did ShapeFit help you reach your weight loss goals?
ShapeFit's fitness
forums have really helped and seeing pictures of models and
competitors. The success stories were another major bonus.
