Aquatic Therapy and Weight Loss

•I had bariatric surgery because my weight was effecting my health, ability to move and in general making my life unmanageable. •I started doing aquatic exercise and love it! I’ve always had a problem doing almost any exercise but the water made things easier and more enjoyable. I am now moving to do some land exercise to increase my strength. •Since I started the program I have lost 95 pounds, 52% of my body fat and 6 inches off my waist. •I no longer have to take diabetic or high blood pressure medicines. •I also met my goal this summer of taking a 2 ½ hour horseback ride through the woods and onto the ocean beach. •Without my exercise program none of this would be possible. •Some days I don’t feel like coming but I always feel better afterwards. I can’t believe I’m exercising and liking it!
