Approaching his 50th birthday, Oscar weighed 320 pounds. “You get used to being overweight. There are certain habits that form over the years.” When his bloodwork came back, his doctor wanted to put him on some severe medications, medications he might very well be dependent on for the rest of his life. Others suggested surgery. It was a wake-up call. Oscar knew he had to make a serious and lasting lifestyle change. And he did. Through discipline and diet, Oscar lost 60 pounds. Then at the Y, with the help and support of our coaches and his community, in only 6 months Oscar lost another 60. “After that I want to keep going, I feel great again. At 51 I feel like I did when I was 30.” Oscar and so many others like him are embracing health and fitness into their lives and making positive changes. Here at the Y we know that healthy lifestyles are achieved through nurturing mind, body and spirit. Wellbeing and fitness at the Y goes beyond just working out.

AWAY MEMBERSHIP
AWAY means Always Welcome At the YMCA.
When you join the YMCA of the Foothills, you become part of a national movement of 22 million members in more than 2,400 YMCAs. Because each YMCA is autonomous, not-for-profit, and not a franchise, local YMCA policies vary on the use of equipment, facilities, services and program by visiting members from out-of-town or from nearby YMCAs. If you plan to visit another YMCA, it is a good idea to call that YMCA about visiting member policies.
To find a YMCA nearest where you are visiting go to the YMCA Locator at www.ymca.net
