30-years-old Jayme Hunsinger weighted 138 kg while her height was 175 cm. One day her step-sister’s wedding motivated her to lose 70 kg.
“I was asked to be a maid of honor for a wedding. While honored about being able to play a huge role in this special day, I remember looking in the mirror and thinking to myself how disgusting I looked and how much I had let myself go,” she told Huffington Post.
That was when Jayme decided to lose weight. She started the Weight Watchers program thanks to one of her family members, and the program helped her lose the first 35 kg by the time her step-sister got married. “However, that wasn't my goal. My goal was to lose 150,” Jayme said.
Then she started running, which was rather difficult for her at first. “I was always a kid who would rather come home after school and watch TV and have some snacks than be active. But I was motivated by a friend of mine to start running but do it slowly. I tried and took my time. I struggled with the aches and pains and how hard it was on my body. However, eventually I grew to enjoy it and love it. Now, it is my number one stress reliever and outlet,” she said.
Running helped her get rid of the remaining 35 kilograms, but of course she had to change her diet and way of living too, eventually discovering “a whole new world of foods.” She was size 24 when she started this journey, and now she’s only size 6, so finding beautiful cloths has become much easier.
Jayme’s husband was also motivated by her success and started losing weight, too. He has already lost 43 kg and has a goal to lose additional 9. “I am so proud of us, not only because of the loss but because of the wonderful examples we are setting for our daughter. She now will choose fruits and veggies over junk more than before, which is a wonderful feeling!” Jayme said.
