From Chubby girl to Prom Queen!

:Yes You Can!  gave me the biggest gift of all, he taught me how to love and believe in myself. Thanks to him I was able to make the biggest dream of my life come true”.

Karina is another example of how intention plus action can change a person’s life forever. With a lot of discipline, effort and Yes You Can's help this spectacular young Latina was able to lose 18 pounds in only 4 weeks. On top of reaching her ideal weight she was also able to make her biggest dream ever come true: she became the queen and star of her prom.

Ever since she was 5 year old Karina had problems with her weight, she was always the chubbiest in the group and because of this she felt different all the time. The reason for her overweight traced back to her own home. Her mom and her grandma, like in most Hispanic homes, believed that being “big” was an indication of being healthy so they created very negative nutritional habits in Karina. These habits stayed with her for the rest of her life to the point where she considered herself “addicted” to bread. No matter how much she exercise she was never able to lose weight because of the way she ate.

After trying lots of crazy and extreme diets that her friends recommended for her, and ready to give give up all together, Karina had a very lucky break and she started Chaban's diet and was able to work with him and his group of specialists to achieve her ultimate goal. After changing the way she ate, the way she worked out and they way she saw and loved herself our friend was able to leave behind that “chubby” girl that everyone stared at and became the center of attention of the biggest night of her life, the prom. Karina claims that looking in the mirror and feeling happy and comfortable with the person she sees in there is the greatest thing that ever happened to her. She loves her Yes You Can! transformation kit.
