Marcella knows what it feels like to spend most of her life as an overweight person. It’s not fun. It’s traumatic emotionally as well as physically. She tried most everything out there to get fit and lean. Nothing worked for her …. until now. Marcella got plugged in with the full package of workouts, nutrition, and accountability. She joined with Chris and Tekoa Garrett (if you don’t know them, you need to watch their Hall of Fame video cuz they are amazing members of the teamRIPPED family). And through their inspiration, Marcella knew she could do it too. Well, she definitely has, and I couldn’t be more happy for her. Check this out, and imagine what it would mean to those you know who struggle with obesity if you would inspire them, believe in them, and help them do what Marcella has done!
Marcella’s Story =
When I was a teenager I had a dream – to wake up in the morning and not see the obese, overweight body I was living in. In 8th grade I was 5’6″, weighed 220lbs and wore a size 16/18 pant. I had triple knee surgeries at age 14 and spent a year barely able to walk; spending the majority of my time on crutches and leg braces. I never remember a time when I was able to shop in the “juniors dept”.I struggled with my weight my whole life. I often used food as an emotional crutch. When I married my husband at the age of 20 in 2003, I weighed 200lbs. Nine years later I was a mother to our 3 year old son, and found myself once again trying to lose weight in any way I could – often trying countless diets and running myself silly. Then in November 2010, my husband was diagnosed at age 31 with terminal leukemia. As a stay-at-home mom to our 3 year old, I knew I needed to do something to help me cope with this overwhelming stress and worry that was suddenly in my life, and I knew I would need something to help me deal with my husband’s death. It was during this dark hour of my life that I discovered the Beachbody products.
For the first time in my life, I am proud of my body. My wish as a teenage girl to have the body of my dreams came true! I woke up today, looked in the mirror and realized I have achieved the body I also dreamed of! It didn’t happen overnight, and it has taken many hours of a lot of hard work, but with the help of the P90X, Insanity and TurboFire programs, along with daily using Shakeology smoothies, I have completely transformed my body, my mind and my emotional stability.
I can honestly say that before finding Team Beachbody- I had tried it all! I BELIEVE in these programs – THEY DO WORK! You have to put in the time and YOU have to have the desire to want to change your life, BUT, if you bring me your desire, I can help you achieve YOUR goals. I want to make your wish and your dreams come true like mine have! Together we can Achieve UR Dreams!
