1100 pounds lost in 1 year of Health Coaching!


Obesity is the 2nd leading preventable cause of death in America (only shortly behind smoking).  Stress, unhealthy sleep habits, lack of exercise and movement wear us down so that life is a struggle instead of a joy.  I live in a frustrated state because I know how to help people get healthy, but it is not politically correct to offer my services (“Hey, I notice you are overweight.  I can help you get healthy.”).  I have this sense that people are drowning all around me, I have a life preserver, but I can’t throw it because I would offend someone.

This month marks my 1-year anniversary as a Personal Health Coach with Take Shape for Life.  I am honored to walk along side amazing people who are now focused on creating and celebrating personal health.

In this past year, my clients have lost over 1100 pounds

I am also celebrating 14 months of my own personal health.  In August of 2011, I reached my goal of losing 31 pounds.  I was able to cut my insulin requirements in half.  All of my lab results now come back in the normal range (which is amazing for a type 1 diabetic of 32 years). 

If you love your life now, and you are happy with your health, stop reading now.  We’ll celebrate our health together!

For those of you who know you need to take charge or your health, or you know others whose poor health is interfering with the way they want to live, let me tell you a little bit about Take Shape for Life.

Take Shape for Life is created and run by doctors, and it is backed up by 32 years of scientific studies at leading medical universities.  The focus is on creating health (weight loss, exercise, stress reduction, healthy sleep, and even time management).  I am seeing lives changed for the better on a regular basis.  The comment I hear most is, “I wish I did this years ago.”

Take Shape uses Medifast Foods for the weight loss portion of the program.  They have been recommended by over 20,000 doctors since 1980.  While you are losing weight, I will help you learn to eat healthy, which includes recognizing and combating your unhealthy triggers, as well as healthy choices and portion control.  We will bring movement and exercise into your life, evaluate your sleep schedule, work on reducing stress, and tackle a myriad of other health issues that may be keeping you in an unhealthy state.

And my health coaching services are free.  All you pay for on the program is your food (around $300 per month).

I believe that Take Shape for Life is one of the biggest secrets in America – and it shouldn’t be!  It is healthy and it works. 

Let me know if you, or someone you know, want to take control of their health.
