I've never had a lot of problems with my weight. On the contrary! They used to call me names because I was so skinny. I started gaining weight right after I had my first baby; in the blink of an eye, I'd gained 70 pounds. During the months of pregnancy, I never cared about my weight. I just thought I would lose the extra pounds as soon as I gave birth, but that didn’t actually happen. When my son was born, I tried every single type of diet but I never followed through. Since I’d never been overweight I really didn’t know how to deal with it. I found comfort in food and that started a vicious cycle that didn’t seem to end. I remember eating whole boxes of cereal and entire bags of bread without even realizing it. Everything took a turn for the better when I started to look for a solution, and that’s when I found Yes You Can!. What convinced me was that it was a plan specifically for Latinos. I started to see amazing results the very first week, not only physically but also mentally. Alejandro’s book really helped me change the way I thought and felt about myself and this gave me energy to believe in myself and stick to the plan with a lot of discipline. I followed the Traffic Light Diet and became physically active. I started to walk 45 minutes every day and this helped my results. So far, I’ve lost 37 pounds and I couldn’t be happier. My husband and the rest of my family have been incredibly supportive and they’ve kept me motivated to keep going until I reach my ultimate goal. Thanks to Yes You Can!, this is like a dream come true and I’m going to be forever grateful to Alejandro Chaban and Yes You Can!.
