“I truly had been feeling like my life was over but i now believe i have so much more life to live”

I have been fit and thin just about my entire life.. but about 7 years ago I had to have a total hysterectomy. That was a life shattering event. Immediately after the surgery I felt “different” in a not so good way. My body was thrown into menopause abruptly. I started to put on weight. Not only did I gain quite a bit of weight but my shape changed significantly, I lost muscle tone, I became really flabby, I suffered from mood swings, I experienced significant brain fog, my hot flashes were not “flashes” but seemed to be a constant state of being, my cravings for all the wrong kind of foods were uncontrollable and I was absolutely miserable. I felt helpless and powerless. All of my usual strategies for maintaining my state of physical fitness were useless. I felt like I was in someone else’s body.
I tried one diet after another but couldn’t stick to any plan for more than a couple days. I tried exercising but that did little good. My energy levels plummeted and I was becoming a class A couch potato. To make matters worse I started to look for “quick fixes”. I began to order one product after another that promised certain and easy weight loss. I spent hundreds of dollars on garbage because I was desperate. Of course nothing helped. 
[After taking WildFit]I really didn’t seem to be releasing much weight but I could see that my clothes were looser. I was sleeping much better. My skin was looking younger and the cellulite on my thighs was becoming more and more less noticeable. My hot flashes were improving. Slowly I was beginning to feel more empowered and more in control. I was also starting to feel happy again. Most importantly though my brain fog seemed to be going away. My thoughts were becoming clear again. 
I now weigh 135 pounds [before I weighed 147 lbs (I am 5’6” tall)]  and I have lost several inches. My body composition seems to be much more muscular and toned than it had been and I definitely have more energy. In a few days I’m going to turn 60 years old but I feel so much younger than I have in a very very long time. I truly had been feeling like my life was over but i now believe i have so much more life to live. It’s wonderful to feel hopeful and optimistic again! 
I seriously cannot thank Eric enough for giving me back my life.
