My name is Gerardo I’m a firefighter and paramedic by passion and conviction, a few months ago I was 314 pounds which made it very difficult for me to perform at my job. I ran out of air when I was giving CPR, it felt like my life was going away with every breath I took. My life was reduced to feeling lucky if I ever found clothes that fit me, they always looked at me from head to toes and told me “we don’t sell clothes your size here”.
Whenever there was an emergency at the station I would literally pray that I didn’t have to go up stairs to aid the people in trouble, stairs had become and incredible challenge for me. My life, just like my eating habits, had become chaotic.One of the toughest moments in my life as an obese person was when I had to run less than 120 yards to rescue a woman who was in trouble and when I finally got there I was completely out of breath and dizzy, we had to share the oxygen. Right then and there I knew I had hit rock bottom.
My menu was a complete mess; it was all fat, carbs and sugar. I finally reacted with the real story of Alejandro Chabán and got motivated to give my life a 180 degree twist. I lost over 100 pounds and found out that the
Yes You Can! Diet Plan is a tool that guides you step by step and molds your habits for life, it’s not just about losing weight. With the traffic light guide I learned to eat again. To all of those who are suffering with obesity just like I was I tell you: it’s never late to change your life, absolutely all of us have the capacity to do whatever we want to do, with enthusiasm, hard work and will power you can do anything you think of.
No one says it’s going to be easy, it’s a challenge but not an impossible challenge to conquer. If you fall you have an opportunity the next day to get back up and you’ll never be alone there’s always someone from the Yes You Can! family right there with you. The most important thing is to never surrender, this shouldn’t be an option. The most important relationship is the one you have with yourself and as you free your mind and your body from obesity you’ll be able to se the sun shine again. My life now has another color for the simple reason that I can now help myself and help others without dying in the process. I love the
Yes You Can! meal replacement shakes.
