Today we’d like to introduce you to Hunter Haskell.

Hunter Haskell

Hi Hunter, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
It all started back in high school, I became overweight/obese and lost myself fully. I was made fun of and told “You will never be pretty, you won’t ever reach your goals”. Every day, it was a battle with my health.

It put not just my physical health in danger but my mental stability. The consequences just reached their maximum, and I was sent to my first weight loss camp. It felt intimidating to walk into such a thing like this. The amount of weight I lost was breathtaking. Spending six weeks there attending intense workout classes, and portion-controlled meals was dreadful then. The amount of information I have learned was worth the stay. Now that I’ve dropped fifteen pounds, I have made so much progress. Keeping on that same path has been the hardest though. The ups and downs were the highlight of the story.

My weight loss journey has been rocky but worth the outcome. Keeping that same mindset was the absolute hardest in my case. I didn’t know if I was going to keep staying stable with my weight. Five years later, I maintained a good image of myself. I am confident enough now to choose the right meals and make the right choices. Choosing health and fitness has extremely changed my perception of life. It’s given me the courage to help and change other people’s lives.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
The journey has been life-changing. It wasn’t smooth. The downside of having poor health problems was debilitating.

The amount of effort to change and fix myself was dreadful at that time. Knowing if I stayed at that point it would get worse. Now, I see it’s progressing positively. I’ve sustained my appearance and reduced negative thinking about myself.

I’ve adjusted to my lifestyle quite well. I am addressing my self-esteem issues accordingly. Change isn’t easy but it’s truly beautiful to see myself flourish.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am now a fitness social media influencer. I have attained a big audience on big platforms. I have worked with several companies in the industry. While sharing my story, I have inspired many people to start their journey to living healthy and happy. I stand firm with my lifestyle.

I live up to it wholeheartedly. I am vulnerable to topics that are hard to talk about. I care about my supporters, I interact and help them in my knowledge. It’s not about fame or reputation; but your character and mission behind it all. Helping others over social media gave me the chance to give back. It’s giving back what I learned over the past years.

What do you like and dislike about the city?
What I love about Palm Beach is the scenery and atmosphere. The general location is beautiful. The crisp air at the beach in the morning, the lizards always running on the sidewalk and welcoming people. I am not so fond of the resources that they have for the low-income and homeless community.

I am a very caring individual. Knowing there are sick and suffering people out there; it’s sad to see people deteriorate. I am not a lover of the immense traffic on the highway. That is a typical hardship you will encounter living in this city or all cities in Florida.
