About Me

Natalia Burleson: Brandon, FL, United States; My name is Natalia (Nat-a-lee-ya). I have been overweight pretty much my whole life. I participated in a contest at my gym and won! It was a Biggest Loser contest and I lost 23.5 pounds over 12 weeks and gained 9 pounds of lean muscle. During this contest I learned that even though I have a lot of weight to lose to get my goal, there is no reason that I can't have fun and Embrace the Journey along the way! You and I can take this journey together!
