By now you may have heard that our new Miss South Carolina was once a chubby teen. It was her doctor’s intervention that got her attention. The pain in her legs, he told her, was directly attributable to her weight.
Bree Boyce made the connection and made significant changes to her eating habits. She started an exercise routine. But, she lost the weight the old fashioned way, over three years.
Two big things are significant here: her doctor looked her right in the eye and told her that she was the cause of her problem and she lost the weight slowly with changes to her eating and with exercise under the guidance of a trainer.
It is up to each adult to make decisions about what and how much we eat. And it is up to each adult to make a choice to include more exercise in our daily lives.
The road to gaining weight is smoothly paved. The road to a healthy weight and fitness is bumpy and steep. Which road to take is up to each of us.
