They say a picture is worth a thousand words. For Mark Zucnick, a picture did more than get him talking—it got him doing.
“After my wife and I returned from a cruise, I saw photos of myself and I was shocked—I didn’t know I was that big. I got on the scale and it said 257 pounds. That’s when I knew I had to take action.”
The Body by Vi™ Introduction
Josan Caballero is a man on a mission. Tired of dealing with the health risks and physical limitations of being overweight, he invited Maria Rojas and other close friends to join him on the Body by Vi™ 90-Day Challenge. And then he challenged himself to transform Miami into a city free of obesity.
Dave and Esther Bengel weren’t always the picture of health and happiness that their friends see today. Dave used to wake up “like a zombie, clawing for the coffee pot,” while his wife Esther battled daily migraines and depression.
“I don’t even recognize our lives before The Challenge,” says Esther. “We had poor eating habits. We were apathetic about nutrition and always tired. Everything was a struggle. And then we just stopped caring altogether.”
Scott, Amy and Brennan Chandler had tried everything from fad diets to high priced nutrition experts, but the results were always the same frustration. Scott and Amy were overweight, drained, and unhappy. To make matters worse, their teenage son Brennan had struggled with his weight for most of his childhood, and they were about to give up as a family.
Kelly Vicent’s friends and colleagues don’t recognize him these days—and that’s a good thing! After 20 years of not being able to get on his bicycle, Kelly shed almost 50 pounds in 90 days and is now competing in local bike races and setting even more fitness goals on the Body by Vi™ Challenge.
“I used to be athletic, playing all kinds of sports and racing bikes. But I had steadily gained weight over a 10-year period, going from 150 to 230 pounds. Before the Body by Vi Challenge, I couldn’t even bend over,” Kelly recalls.
After an embarrassing situation on a family vacation, Angela “Angie” Mooij made a promise that changed her life. She assured her young daughter, “When you’re tall enough, I will be thin enough to ride the roller coaster with you.” The Body by Vi™ Challenge became the catalyst that propelled Angie to a future she never thought possible.
