Tiring out a two-year-old is child’s play for Tanya Herranz

Tanya Herranz was 24 when her doctor told her she was at high risk for a heart attack, stroke, and diabetes.

She struggled with her weight for years, and was nearly incapacitated following a back injury. During this time, she gained even more weight since even walking was too painful. Tanya gave up hope of ever losing weight.

At the time of her doctor’s warning, Tanya weighed 355 pounds and was a size 28. She knew losing weight was the answer, and turned to a place that could support her with one-on-one counseling. She joined L A Weight Loss, and in the first two months, Tanya lost 25 pounds!

Tanya told me that, before losing 160 pounds, she would be out of breath just climbing a flight of stairs. Now she’s able to play with her 2-year-old for hours at their home in Deforest, Wis. The toddler has non-stop energy, and now, so does Tanya.

Here's Tanya at an agonizing 355 pounds:



Yep, this is really her now!! What a transformation, huh??
