Reader Success Story: How Chiklet Lost 30 Pounds

August 10, 2009

Our latest weight loss success story covers a cringe-worth situation that is a great reminder to all of us: Never assume a woman is pregnant. That’s exactly what happened in Chiklet’s case. She wasn’t pregnant and had had her third child a year earlier, but strangers kept asking her when her baby was due. It bears repeating: Never assume a woman is pregnant.

Chiklet took control of her situation by joining a gym. She started using a treadmill and lifting a few weights, with some mediocre results. She then tried a kickboxing class and everything changed from that point on. She also found some success by joining Beachbody (a company which has created popular fitness programs like P90X) where she could track her calories and find support.
