“It all began with a medical checkup in December 2018 (at age 33). A checkup that became my turning point. With the help of my wife, we made lifestyle changes, albeit difficult but very necessary. I saw it as a life or death situation. Her care for me developed into a passion and then into a career. She is now a certified health coach.

“Now, I train 6 times a week with the help of a personal trainer. In 18 months, I have lost almost 50 pounds and defeated pre-diabetes symptoms, high blood pressure and heart disease threat through a healthy diet and exercise.”

About 3 years ago, my health was challenged. I had high blood pressure reading almost to the 200s, I had pre-diabetes almost getting to full blown diabetes and the doctor confirmed, that it seemed I may have suffered heart attacks a few times without knowing.

This was a wonderful situation, for lack of a better word, but being a part of this great family has taught us, that we do not just accept any negative report but we take personal responsibility in God’s word. Trusting and believing God, I saw my health experience a 360 degree turn around.

I was able to change my diet following what the scripture teaches, and there was a total reversal in 24 months. If God did it for me, He can do it for you as well!”

In 18 months I have lost almost 50 pounds and defeated pre diabetes symptoms, high blood pressure and heart disease threat through a healthy diet and exercise. I am still a work in progress. Believe me..

“Dear believer, Christianity is not carelessness, spirituality is not stupidity, I faced my goliath. Its okay to despise your goliath but don’t ignore your goliath. Get it done. My fitness journey hasn’t been an easy one, but I will not allow temporary pain to stop me from getting it done”.

“I know there are days you will feel like not getting up, but remember why you started, that should be enough motivation for you. Today, I advice you to take it a notch higher, have a healthy diet plan to complement your workout.If I could do it, so can you.#GetItDone”.
