The Fit Solution

Vanessa lost over 60 lbs!  This was Vanessa Before (see above middle) Vanessa Plante I am a mom, graduate student and a full-time professional.  My motivation for losing weight was to be a better mother and to lead a healthier and more active lifestyle. My weight loss effort was multi-faceted.  It entailed a diet based on calorie restrictions, yet allowed room foir the occassional splurge.  I did not eliminate any food groups but curtailed my intake of animal based products including meat, cheese, butter and like foods. In addition, I committed to a regular exercise regimen which involved both cardio and weight training modules.  This allowed me to lose fat yet sculpt my body in the process.  I exercised no more than four times a week for intense periods.  This was to both maintain momentum and to remain motivated.  I used a variety of exercise types and formats to ensure that my body did not plateau quickly and to stave off the effects of muscle loss which could lead to counter-productive exercise efforts.  My weight loss since 2006 is now 60 lbs.
