Fitbytes Client loses over 100 lbs in a 10 months, runs a marathon and is finally becoming a women.
It took almost four decades, but Michelle is finally comfortable in her own skin and ready to start a new life.
Michelle, 38, said she wasn’t at peace with herself until about five years ago. But her story is much deeper than that. It’s about a woman who was struggling with self-image.
Born Michael , she spent more than three decades as a male trying to live up to other people’s expectations.
That was before Michael became Michelle.
“I’m at peace now,” she said during a recent interview about her journey as a transgender woman.
So, what does this have to do with Fitbytes. Well, Michelle came to me after being denied as a contestant on the famous TV show, ” The Biggest Loser”. She was shocked to be denied since she would be the first transexual to be ever on the show which would have sky rocketed the ratings.
Michelle wanted to not only change her identity but also her image. She as a kid and into adult hood had abused her body by tr ying to eat herself to death. That’s how she delt with her gender issue. An average meal would be a large pizza, large italian sub, liter of coke and 4-5 large cookies. She didn’t care.
Back to Fitbytes. Well, she came to me begging to help her lose weight within the year before surgery. I obviously said, yes and a year later ( December 2011) she’s already ran a marathon, lost over 100 lbs, getting a sex change and looks like a totally different person.
Your probably asking how she did it? She worked her ass off. Yes kept her mouth shut and focused on her goal. See, you must have a burning desire to attain big weight loss. Plus, you need a plan that will work. Nothing is worse than training hard and seeing no results. The key is watch your calories and the calories you do take in are pure and from whole foods. Losing weight is 80 percent eating clean foods and getting nourished without eating lots of calories. Oh ya, don’t let trainers tell you cardio doesn’t matter because that’s just B.S. Unless you want to look like a body builder and taking growth hormone. I’m sure this isn’t what you want.
