Candice Chapman joined the
Hickam AFB Boot Camp in November. She says, "Honestly, prior to joining
Boot Camp, I thought I was able to lose weight on my own. I now realize that it
isn't just about a group of women coming together to exercise. It's so much
more."
When Candice didn't lose
any weight after her first month of training, she approached trainer Alicia Palmer, who suggested she get in at least 20 extra minutes of cardio each day.
"I made sure my feet hit the payment daily," says Candice. "In
the process, I have improved my overall running ability and have even begun to
enjoy it!"
Hickam trainer Alicia
Palmer says of Candice, "She's a quiet one, but she's always working her
tail off. In her first month, she suffered from a fairly serious calf strain,
so she had a lot to overcome. She didn't make excuses, she just fought through
it. And now, she's the Biggest Loser!'
"I know that if it
wasn't for Alicia and the rest of the Hickam crew, I would not have the
motivation to continue to push myself," raves Candice. "Alicia
commented at my last weigh-in that she could see the skinny girl inside me. And
to tell the truth, I can finally see that person again, too!"
