Client Success Stories

Denise lost 143 lbs!

"My husband and I think it's funny that he's been accused of cheating on me... One person even thought we'd gotten divorced and my husband had remarried!"

Even in high school I was overweight, and over the years I had just resigned myself to being heavy. I was always told I was beautiful, but by the time I was in college I was a size 20 to 24, and didn't feel beautiful. I tried to be outgoing and funny to cover my insecurities.

I started having a lot of health issues, including swelling in my foot that required me to wear a boot for six months. My husband was afraid for my health, and worried that I wouldn't be around to raise my children.

I attended my employer's health and benefits fair, where aTake Shape For Life Health Coach introduced me to the program. I knew at the time we couldn't afford it, but I kept it in the back of my mind. Two years later my husband and I agreed that we would find the money and that I would do this. I lost 18 lbs the first month!

My family and friends can't believe my physical and emotional transformation. I no longer have knee pain or huff and puff as I walk upstairs. I especially enjoy doing things with my kids, and flying in a plane without worrying that the seatbelt won't fasten. And clothes I would never have dared to even try on before look amazing on me!
