Christi B. Lost 83 Lbs on RM3 ® & Feels Unstoppable
My job as an on-air radio talent requires me to be in the public eye every day. Being overweight made it difficult to be comfortable in my own skin. I worked with some of the skinniest women in the business, so I always felt like the fat girl. If there were an event coming up, I’d dread it because I needed to find a new outfit to wear. It didn’t matter how hard I tried; I could never hide the fat.
My weight also made me not want to go out anywhere. I’d come up with excuses as to why I had to stay home because I felt I embarrassed my family when we were with others. I’m naturally very social, but my weight kept me from people because I didn’t like my appearance.
I debated weight loss surgery because I had done every diet possible. You name it; I tried it. Some were more successful than others. However, the weight would always come back, and I’d be heavier than when I started. I got on the scale one morning and weighed as much as I did when I had my son… 10 years prior! I couldn’t believe I had let myself get this way.
At the time, I wasn’t sleeping well. I’d wake up in the middle of the night choking because I had either stopped breathing or choked on my tongue. One night, I woke up gasping for air and couldn’t catch my breath. That was it. I was done being overweight for good this time.
The issue I’ve always had with weight loss was not seeing results fast enough. With Red Mountain Weight Loss®, I saw the scale change quickly, which kept me going. Shortly after I started RM3®, my clothes began to fit better, my sleep improved, and people started to notice. I felt like I could succeed this time.
I could have stopped there and been happy, but I wanted to keep going. I wanted to show my kids what dedication and commitment could do. It also gave me a new level of confidence in my job.
I don’t think I can say enough about how amazing the team is at Red Mountain. Every person I have encountered has been supportive, patient, and kind. When you are overweight and have been made fun of in life or are at your absolute lowest point, how you’re treated makes all the difference in your success. I have worked hard to get here, and I will celebrate it!
