Meet Vernesha Floyd
Vernesha Floyd is a 31-year-old mother, wife, and inspiring warrior whose journey of resilience, discipline, and strength continues to motivate those around her. With two beautiful boys, Vernesha embraces the role of a stay-at-home mom, balancing the demands of family life with a personal mission to reclaim her health and confidence. Her story is one of transformation, tenacity, and the desire to show up fully—not just for herself, but for her family.
A Journey Rooted in Purpose
Vernesha’s struggle with weight began in her early teens, continuing through college and into motherhood. After the birth of her second son, her health challenges grew more intense, partly due to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hormonal imbalances. With a body and mind increasingly weighed down, she reached a critical point where she could no longer be there for her boys in the way she wanted. "That was enough motivation to get my life back for them," she shares. Determined to make a change, Vernesha explored multiple options before undergoing gastric sleeve surgery—a decision that has helped her lose 90 pounds and regain her health.
The Power of Goals and Dedication
As she continues her journey, Vernesha's goals are clear: to prioritize her health and be the best, healthiest version of herself. Her driving force? Her two young boys, who inspire her to keep going each day. Vernesha’s unwavering commitment has fueled her progress, reinforcing her belief in the power of consistency and accountability.
"Having the surgery is one of the biggest mental games ever"
Vernesha admits. With bariatric surgery comes the discipline of maintaining strict habits—hydration, exercise, protein intake, and vitamins. Each day is a practice in self-discipline and commitment to her journey.
Overcoming Challenges with Resilience
Juggling the responsibilities of motherhood, marriage, and self-care hasn't been easy. Prioritizing herself is an ongoing challenge for Vernesha, especially when her natural instinct is to put her family first. However, she has learned the importance of carving out time for her health within her family routines, finding ways to balance exercise and nutrition amidst her busy schedule.
Finding Confidence with What Waist
Vernesha discovered What Waist as a loyal customer and has found a new sense of confidence and support from their products. With her weight loss came the challenge of managing loose skin—a common experience among those who've undergone significant transformation. "What Waist supports my midsection so well, keeping it all together," Vernesha says. "I feel confident working out, at the gym, or on walks with my waist trainer—it looks great, and I feel even better in it!" Her favorite results? A noticeable reduction in her midsection and a beautiful shape she once only dreamed of achieving. Vernesha is thrilled with her progress, excitedly sharing that she's ready to downsize her waist trainer—a milestone that fills her with pride.
Words of Encouragement for Fellow Warriors
To others on similar paths, Vernesha offers heartfelt advice:
"Stay the course and take it personal. No one knows what you battle day to day. This journey is yours and yours alone. YOU ABSOLUTELY GOT THIS!"
Her story is a powerful reminder that every journey is unique, and the only person who truly understands the significance of each step is the one walking it.
As Vernesha continues her journey, her resilience and joy serve as an inspiration to all of us at What Waist. We are honored to be part of her story and look forward to celebrating each new milestone with her.
