Pilates Stretch Band Exercises
The age of 23, I decided I didn’t like my body. I was too chubby and shaped like an apple. For 10 months, I worked furiously at the gym with endless cardio and Pilates. I managed to take off 28 pounds and while I reduced some weight off of my arms and around my middle, I never quite got to the shape I really wanted.
After keeping the weight off for 5 years, I got engaged. Having still never quite been at the point where I loved how I looked or felt, I was motivated to lose those last few pounds and build a better body. Working long hours at a stressful job, I could the weight off initially.
That’s when my friend told me about The Happy Body. She said that it was a holistic program that was defined by 30 minutes of weights, a balanced eating program, and relaxation. The point was to build a happy body, not tear it apart at the gym.

Weights, and I was intimidated by the thought of a diet plan. On the other hand, I was desperate for something that would work and fascinated by the various testi with the plan, I lost the weight, became stronger and leaner than ever, and I lost that achy feeling from too much running. My favorite part is that for the first time, I have an hourglass figure! I finally have a waist and taut abs. On the occasions that I attend a cardio class or ab class with friends, I find that I am stronger and more in shape than I have ever been. I was never able to make it through an ab class before I tried The Happy Body, but now I sail right through.
I feel liberated that I have the key to health, and it’s not tied to hours on an aerobic machine. I can come home, and in the privacy of my own living room, do my weights, enjoy TV, listen to music, or talk to my fiance. When I finish the weights I know the next few minutes of relaxation are purely my time to enjoy.
