Breaking point:  In October 2004, Christine decided to break the cycle of weight loss and regain, and to change her lifestyle once and for all.  “I was tired of being tired,” says Carson, “I wanted to be healthy.  And this is a choice I made for me- not a husband, boyfriend, family member, etc… but for ME.” 

 

Key strategies:  She joined a formal weight management program and began Jazzercising.  “The commercial weight loss program taught me how to make better food choices and to eat in moderation,” Carson states.  “I also came to realize that food is the way to fuel my body, not my emotions.  If hunger is not my problem, then food is not the answer!”

Biggest surprise:  Christine now enjoys exercise.  “Who knew?  I love the way it makes me feel,” she insists.  “I miss it when I’m away from it- my body craves it.  Not just the physical benefits from it, but the mental as well.”  A typical day includes 30 minutes on the treadmill before work, and a 60-minute Jazzercise class in the evening.  “It’s a great way to dance and workout all at once!”

Reaping the rewards:  “My doctor took me off of high blood pressure medication.  I don’t get winded climbing stairs.  I can cross my legs.  When I bend over, I don’t think to myself, ‘What else can I do while I’m down here?’ I could go on and on,” Carson says.  “I’m still single.  I’m still approaching 40.  But I’m energetic and healthy and getting more so every day.”
