From Obese to Michigan’s Fitness Ambassador 

Ressie is a busy Mother of three children, registered nurse and university professor. She works 62+ hours a week and is on call nights and weekends. She recently found her secret weapon with the Isagenix nutritional system and ran with it (literally) as she was recently selected as one of Michigan’s 2016 Fitness Ambassadors.

“I WAS OBESE! I wasn’t always obese; it kind of snuck up on me. I was full of excuses: A high stress job, a career ending injury, quitting smoking and having a baby.  In reality, I was obese because of poor eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle.  Year after year and pound after pound I made excuses for my lifestyle. After 4 years of hard work, I had lost approximately 45 pounds but my weight loss had hit a plateau, so I made some more changes.  I cleaned up my diet even more (mostly :)) and began incorporating the Isagenix nutritional system. The program includes an online motivational group which has helped me increase my daily activity too. I am proud to say I have now lost 115lbs!  My BMI has gone from 39.87 to 23.33. Not only am I NOT obese, I’m not even OVERWEIGHT!

Last summer was one of the best I’ve ever had- I can now proudly call myself a runner. I spent the summer camping, swimming, kayaking, running and most importantly…LIVING!”–Reesie Stranaly
