Member Spotlight: Kelley S.

Virgin HealthMiles made the difference in my life. I have struggled with my weight for about 20 years; always on the roller coaster ride. I was famous for crash diets then gaining it all back within a few months time. I allowed stress to rule my eating habits and consume my entire life. For so long I desired to get back on that roller coaster and not get off but it never registered mentally with me until I started the Virgin HealthMiles program. I realized at that time I did not want to live like this anymore and what better way to start the journey to a healthier me.

Since joining, it has motivated me to increase my activity level to the point of feeling guilty if I don’t have some form of exercise in my daily routine. I began recording everything I put in my mouth and focused on my caloric intake. 

I am happy to announce since joining this program I have lost 24.2 pounds and I'm loving life. I have about 26 more pounds to lose to reach my 1^st really big goal. Everything about me has changed; my mental state of mind, my body, my endurance and my husband would be happy to say my snoring at night. I had reached the level that my snoring was so bad that I would stop breathing several times during the night. Guess what? Now, no more snoring!

I could just go on and on about this program…one word sums it up – AWESOME!

2 months after sending her story, Kelley sent another update that she's since lost another 10 pounds and is now up to a total of 35 punds.  Way to go Kelley!

I love the pics, what an awesome experience! It is amazing how different I feel, more energy is noted, the wt. has not moved as fast as I would like, but it is still WNL, but I won't quit! Thanks for being an inspiration!

I just love hearing great stories like this. It's encouragement like this that we all need to hear. Exercise is so very important in all our lives, every day and for everyone, even if we don't need to lose weight. Keep up the great work.

Great job. You are my inspiration. I could have written almost the same "before" story as you had, and hopefully I'll soon be able to write the same "on going progress" story. Keep us posted. Cindy

Great going Kelley. I currently have a very bad cold and have been told to rest. As soon as I recover (hopefully within a couple of days) I am going to follow your lead right through the Christmas holidays. Thanks for the inspiration.
