When I first met Mitzi she was tired, out of shape, sore, and determined! Mitzi had been on bed rest for an illness and was receiving chiropractic care and painful iron injections. Mitzi suffered weakness and pain, had to give up a lot of her life due to her illness,  which she eventually discovered was polycistic ovarian syndrome. Being immobile frustrated Mitzi, and gave her a lot of motivation to become healthy.
          I am always amazed at how strong an individual can get in a short period of time, and Mitzi blew me away. She worked and worked at her strength, endurance, and cardiovascular exercises, and eventually worked off 40 pounds! Mitzi has changed her diet as well. She avoided indulgences at the holidays and in a work environment that loved to eat processed foods. Her friends tell me she is a different person, with more energy and vitality, and she is a role model for many others in the community. Mitzi has gone from a pant size of 14 to a size 4 and is working hard to lose the last 10 pounds! Congratulations Mitzi, keep up the great work!
