My name is Martha Valtierra. I am 38 years old, I am Mexican, and I live in the city of Los Angeles, California. Like a good Mexican, I have always liked to cook typical dishes. When they tasted my food, people always commented that it was delicious. What they did not know was that my secret ingredient was to add fat to get more flavor. The way I cooked was making me fat I was the one who ate the most in my entire family because I spent hours alone at home while my husband went to work and my kids were at school. Because of my depression and loneliness, I began to eat in large quantities. I weighed 175 pounds I felt ugly, and I was ashamed of my body. I had fallen into the vicious circle of being a prisoner of food. I cried because I saw no solution to my obesity and because I had to buy size XL clothes to hide my size. I isolated myself from my family My relatives always told me I was fat. When I heard about Yes You Can!, I saw that it was a diet with a Latin flavor that has worked for millions of people. I wanted to be part of the Weight Loss Success Stories. I told my husband about it, and he had doubts. But we investigated and found that it was a healthy way to lose weight. I lost 50 lbs Thanks to my angel, Alejandro Chabán, and Yes You Can! I can continue sharing my Mexican food with my family, but in a healthy way.
