![]() ![]() I had always been active through high school with sports. When I started college, I was not as active as I was in high school but the eating habits didn't change. So when I was getting married, I wanted to lose weight but really struggled. I just let my weight continue to get heavier. By 2008, I decided that I needed to get control of my weight as there are health issues in my family. There was a diet/lifestyle program at my work and I signed up. The weight started to come off but needed more than just to change the way I was eating.
My friend, Alisha Medina, was taking Hot Hula Fitness and not long after she started she invited me to join her. I was never one to take a group exercise class. I always worked out by myself. I really enjoyed the classes from the beginning. I really didn't think I would be able to do Hot Hula but, after the first few classes, I truly fell in love with it. At one point, I was taking the classes at least 4 times a week.
Hot Hula Fitness has helped me with losing the weight and inches off my body. I have seen such a transformation from the time I started taking Hot Hula to now. I am able to push myself harder in classes and have even had the chance to help guide new participants. Hot Hula is not just a great fitness program it is also a family. I love having that feeling that I am among family.
In November 2013, I had reached my goal weight and became a lifetime member of Weight Watchers and continue on maintaining my weight loss with the program. Since beginning my weight lost journey, I have lost a total of approximately 65 pounds.
I continue to attend classes and special events (when I am able). Thank you Anna-Rita and company for making a format that is good for all fitness levels! I love the friendships that I have made through Hot Hula. |
