This woman has lost 87 pounds in only seven months. She started out at 217 last November and now weighs 130 in June.Carol Patton, 53, didn't join any kind of weight loss program. She did this on her own by changing her diet and exercising after getting a health scare from her doctor about her high blood pressure and cholesterol. The doctor told her her chances of getting a stroke or heart attack were high unless she started doing something about it.
Patton started a daily walking routine, and changed her diet. One of her key goals was to cut out most of the salt in her diet as this is linked to high blood pressure. If she had been eating lots of salt before, she may have lost at least five pounds very quickly due to getting rid of the water retention problem that often accompanies excessive salt intake.
People don't recognize her on the street now. Congrats Carol Patton!
