My name is Isabel Veguilla. I live in Hudson County, New Jersey. I have been overweight most of my life. Obesity-related illness runs in my family. There is a strong risk for diabetes and heart disease. I am 32 and that’s about the age my mom was diagnosed with diabetes. I have tried just about every diet and every plan. However, the only times I have been successful is through a healthy diet and plenty of exercise. Last year, I had a few health scares that made me really think about what I was doing to my body and well-being by not exercising as often as I could and by letting my diet slip, especially on weekends. I am a pretty busy person, working two jobs and involved in many activities. My downfall has been fitting in exercise and making it a priority.

My goal for 2009 is to make a total health turnaround, hence my username, health180. I started in January with a self-styled program and have lost 15 lbs. I want to ramp things up and see what I can do with the fabulous Beach Body DVDs. I am starting with TurboJam, but want to try Chalean Extreme and P90X after my first phase.

I was put on medication for high blood pressure last year. The day my doctor says I won’t have to take it any longer is one of my markers for success. Other than that, I want to get lean and spread the word about reclaiming health through healthy eating and exercise.

I look forward to interacting with the community! Have fun.

My Progress

My fitness goal:

Transformation story

11/03/09 - I have been off my medication for blood pressure for about a week now and my pressure is holding steady at under 115/75. My biggest goal has been realized. Now I continue on my journey to my ideal body size. This is amazing!

09/28/09 - The weight is coming off very slowly. I need to be more careful with my food intake. Also, awaiting some results from my doctor to see if there are hormonal issues at work here.

7/3/09 - Down 2 more pounds. Slow but steady. I am ready to get into gear with ChaLEAN Extreme starting this coming week.

Breaking News (6/6/09): My triglycerides went down to 244 from 318 and my good cholesterol (HDL) is up to 46 from 38. My goal is to get my triglycerides down to under 150 and my HDL up over 50 as much as I can. :)

06/01/09 - I am a little over 30 days into the program. I've lost two pounds, one inch from my waist and am starting to see the muscle definition in my arms. :) The weight is coming off slowly, but I think it's because of a plateau I hit after the first 15 pounds came off. (My highest was 212 in January.) Upwards and onwards. As I am getting used to the workouts, I'll be able to move to the longer and more challenging ones to burn more fat. I know that I haven't lost a lot yet, but it is showing in my clothes. My 14s are getting looser by the day. :) Yippee!
