In Breanna's own words, "I was an athletic active person living in a body that was not. I had no energy to keep up with my 6 kids and we spent most of our days indoors. I was in a depression and didn't know how to get out. I felt like life was just passing by and I was asleep for it. At 220lbs I purposefully gained 10lbs so I could qualify for gastric bypass surgery. I was at a dead end. I was introduced to the program by my friend of 6 years, Jeanette, who has lost over 50lbs. I tried it twice in the past but never gave it my whole heart. I started with the Mars/Venus solution shakes. Just to help balance me mentally. I couldn't even replace a meal at the time -I just added them to my diet for a while. Then things started to snowball. I changed how I ate other foods, replaced two meals with shakes, joined a gym and this was small steps of health over time. As a result I am now officially in the 100lb club! I ran a rugged maniac 5k, did my first triathlon, and am now apart of an amazing dodgeball league. My 6 kids have taken notice to Isagenix changing their parents' lives and we are proud to have set an example of health. Where they are begging me for their shake every morning. We are the active family that we always were inside. This journey has changed not only my life and my husband's life Griffin C. Ledner (53 lbs released!), but it has changed our entire family."
