“I saw a difference after the very first stretching session!”
Linda Osmond stood in front of the mirror in the store’s fitting room, analyzing every last bulge showing through the too-tight formal dress. She had gone shopping for her daughter’s wedding and found the perfect gown, but they only had it three sizes too small. I don’t want to be overweight in the photos, she thought. My goal is to fit into this dress.
Although Linda had been a size 6 her entire life, in her early 40s the number on the scale had started to creep up. She had been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue and hypothyroidism, but both were being treated and she ate healthy and exercised, so her weight gain just didn’t make sense. “When I went to the gym, I would do 30 minutes of cardio, 30 minutes of weights and then hit the pool,” Linda shares. “At home, I’d even sneak in another workout. But no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t lose the weight.”
That’s when a friend told Linda about a gentle workout program called T-Tapp, which has similar principles to yoga. As she learned more about the method, Linda realized that instead of beating up her body, a good exercise plan could work with her body. She immediately purchased a video. “I saw a change after the first workout,” she says. “It motivated me to continue.”
Linda signed up for a 60-day T-Tapp challenge and was the winner in her category, losing 23.5 inches in just 2 months. For the next challenge, she lost another 22 inches—this time in just 30 days! In total, Linda lost 75 pounds in 2 years and went from a size 16 to a size 4. And not only did she lose inches, her fatigue lifted too. Even better: Her thyroid levels dropped back into the normal range.
These days, Linda is thrilled with her results and is a master trainer for T-Tapp. And when she flew out to California to visit her daughter this summer, she packed her brand-new bathing suit. “I wanted to show off my hard work,” she cheers. “I’ve experienced a major boost in self-esteem and body confidence!”
