With only 18 years of age and thanks to the Yes You Can! Weight management program  Ginelys Medina lost 76 pounds and changed her life forever. This spectacular Boricua grew up in her family’s restaurant so she ate all day every day, even when she wasn’t hungry. Eating our of habit and being excessive with sweets led to her weight being out of control and her self esteem to disappear. Her obesity kept her from leading the life she really wanted; she always loved sports but suffered a lot because of them. No one ever picked her for their team and they would always fight to NOT have to play with her. Every single day was a little more frustrating to spend time with her friends, they only talked about clothes, boys and parties and she never had anything to say about any of these.

Ginelys was size 12 and tired of everyone calling her “fat” and having to wear ugly adult clothing so a few days before her 18th birthday she decided to transform her life and the Yes You Can! Diet  was the perfect solution. The Protein Meal replacement Shakes became her best friends and she never took a single step without having one in her purse or in her school bag. Ginelys says that the key to her success was the 24/7 support of the specialists and the whole Yes You Can! Team, the always answered her questions and kept her very focused.

Every minute that goes by she enjoys her life even more and she’s closer to her friends than ever before. She has become very active, uses her high energy booster every day and now she’s the star of all the teams at school and goes shopping every day. Now she can’t stop smiling when she shops because she fits in a size 2 for the first time in her entire life!
