Team Vi-Possible: How Joining Forces Leads to Challenge Success

 Todays post is taken from the Visalus Blog: 


Over 600 lbs. lost by our 2013 Team Weight-Loss Champions: David Cummings, Leticia Christen Tova Acosta, Greg Smith




Having an accountability partner can make all the difference when it
comes to creating and sustaining a healthy lifestyle. Knowing this,
David Cummings, Leticia Christen, Tova Acosta and Greg Smith joined
forces to form Team Vi-Possible. Separately, each individual was already
waging war against his or her own personal history of being overweight.
However, uniting in their efforts strengthened their resolve to improve
their health.




Life Before The Challenge




“I was over 400 lbs. and was tired and lifeless,” Tova says. The
other three team members share similar experiences. “Simple things are
difficult when you’re that fat,” Greg says. “Everything from tying my
shoes to shopping for clothes made me miserable.”




Success as a Team




Once they joined forces, their collective healthy choices led to
astounding results and surpassed their overall total weight-loss goal of
600 lbs. over multiple Challenges. “Having a team to support me, keep
me accountable and encourage me made all the difference,” Leticia says.
“I was responsible for not only my own success, but also my team’s
success. It helped me find the fire within to get it done.”




New Lifestyles




Today, the four are enjoying the rewards provided by their dramatic
lifestyle changes and healthier choices. “I was the epitome of a couch
potato,” David says. “Now I’m a gym rat, lifting weights, attending boot
camps and running 5K races.”


Enjoying their new bodies and improved health is the dream many of
them never imagined would be possible before discovering The Challenge.
“I’m happy, healthy and active,” Leticia says. “I finally feel like me.”
