Amy’s Transformation Story:

Years ago, I had lost 100 pounds and managed to keep it off for three years. During my first weight loss journey, I had been diagnosed as having the beginning stages of ankylosis spondylitis. I even had back surgery, a fusion at L5/S1, which I fought hard to recover from so that I could continue to lead an active life – I even ran a 5K the day after I was cleared for running. But the stress of my job and commute led to an ever-worsening binge eating disorder. I sought treatment and learned valuable lessons on how food shouldn’t be used as a drug for comfort. But my ankylosing spondylitis continued to get worse. I spent many hours in physical therapy thanks to severe bone spurs and tendinitis throughout both of my feet. As of December 2016, I could barely walk and the only exercise I could still do was spin. Needless to say, I was quite depressed and unsuccessfully trying to avoid using food for comfort, though no longer binging. For the holidays, I visited my sister, and she looked amazing after completing her own transformation. She got me in touch with Diana and I signed up so that I could start soon after I returned home in the new year.

It took four months of excellent nutrition, but I am now able to do all activities again! Running, kickboxing, high-intensity intervals – it’s all at my fingertips and fun again! And I’m no longer on any medication for my condition. I’m down 53.5 pounds as of today – in 28 weeks, 8.5 inches in my waist and 8 inches in my hips are gone. Being able to live a life that is mostly pain-free, though, is priceless! Now on to maintenance!
