Walking and Diet Changes Help Woman Lose 114 Pounds and Cure Acid Reflux

Missy Gillenwater, a 50-year-old stay-at-home wife from Ohio, lost 114 pounds in one year and cured her acid reflux by modifying her diet and committing to a walking routine. After being diagnosed with acid reflux, she cut out fried and fatty foods, soda, and tomato-based foods, and focused on eating fresh vegetables and lighter meats. She also started walking 2-3 miles a day and gradually increased her distance to 10-13 miles a day. She found motivation in the Start TODAY group and recommends creating a diet that works for you, taking photos at every stage of your journey, and joining a group that motivates you.
