Before starting the challenge, Linda says she worried about her health. "I've been carrying this weight around a long time, and fortunately I don't have heart issues yet, but two of my brothers have developed diabetes and have the same body type as me," she said.

Linda lost 20 pounds by limiting her caloric intake to 1,800 calories per day.
