Pounds Lost: 32
Inches Lost: 7.75
Body fat % lost: 10.3

Diana’s goal was to get in shape and find the energy to keep up with her daily routines. With the warmth and encouragement of Pam Downer, a registered dietitian, and Luiz Perez, a certified personal trainer, she was able to start making important lifestyle changes right away.

Pam taught Diana to manage her metabolism by not skipping lunch and by eating small meals throughout the day. Meanwhile, Luis designed a gentle but challenging exercise program for her that allowed her to build muscle without straining her injury-prone knees.

By the time the 12-week program was over, Diana had lost 4 inches from her waist, 2.5 inches from her hips, and 1.25 inches from her thighs.

The transformation was complete when Diana went hiking in the mountains of North Carolina with her three children, who ranged in age from 15 to 25.

“I was more energetic than my kids,” she said.
