Maria Ramos of Naches, Washington
Maria Ramos was getting to
the point of questioning the benefits of exercise because she
couldn't observe any changes. Then she read the book and became
inspired to change her mind and her body. Ramos joined the
Challenge with tons of support from her family and co-workers,
who also joined the campaign. Coming from a Hispanic culture,
she first learned how to step away from the table, which often
featured large portions and foods high in fat, without offending
anyone. As her family adapted and gave her encouragement for
her new lifestyle, Ramos combined her new diet with her co-worker's
pep talks on meals, workouts and successes for additional inspiration.
She was amazed at seeing her body change before her eyes. dropping
8.5 composition points, down four sizes and six pounds. Beyond
her physical transformation, she now admires the person she
is and feels so empowered and in control of her body and mind!
