"I Lost Weight -- and Gained So Much Energy!"

What Worked for Me

Build a fitness base.

I lost a little weight on my own but still had a long way to go. When I first met my trainer, Sylwia, I could manage only a very slow jog. So that's how we started out: taking five-minute runs together. I soon joined her morning cardio-endurance class. (I had never done so many lunges!) It gave me the stamina to begin jogging two days a week, and now I can run five miles at a time.
