Hi,
Here is our story
how we went from the ‘Klumps’ to the
‘Incredible
shrinking couple’

-
In September of
2004 my Doctor discovered that I had Insulin Resistance. This is a
medical problem dealing with sugar levels. In my situation this
meant that my pancreas produced 5x the normal amount of sugar every
time I ate. This had me about 140lbs over weight in 6 years. I have
2 children that I couldn't keep up with or play with. It's scary
when you look in the mirror and don't recognize who you see….
-
After about 3
weeks of trying to correct this problem on my own I was unsuccessful
and needed help. My doctor had given me the name of a nutritionist
so I could get some assistance and their name was
Just Results.
So I pulled out the reference and called.
-
My first
appointment was in October 2004. I was very scared of what they
would say, but I knew I needed someone who could point me in the
direction to change my life for good... I am a very secure person
who had 6 years of many doctors telling me, “There was nothing wrong
just exercise.” I had many tests done & considered myself to be the
healthiest overweight person around. Since my daughter was born in
1998, I just got bigger and bigger and bigger. I had tried every
diet plan, exercise plan, quick fix & drastic measure's to change
but nothing worked. I remember talking to Holly and feeling so
embarrassed, my eyes filled when we first spoke because I was
thinking "I've been down the road of false hope before and I didn't
know if I could take any more heart ache"
After a
few visits I began to believe & became more comfortable to trust
this new process & what they were going to teach me. They also were
very comfortable working with my medical condition. They had
confidence that we would work through this.
-
I remember the
first step was to change my eating habits- One step at a time. I
didn't start exercising until a little over a month later then I
gradually added walking in.
-
2 months had
past and I was down 37 pounds. This I still did not believe until
one day my husband was looking at me from across the room and asked
me "how are you doing this? How can you have all of this energy and
you don't even have caffeine?" Since my insulin was extremely high I
had to take
all
measures to decrease my numbers before my pancreas stopped working
all together. This included cutting out caffeine, sugar, fruit &
starchy carbohydrates. I answered my husband stating "I really
wasn't sure?" This was the first time that I thought about the
change that was taking place in my life. This was from following the
Just Results
program. We discussed the options of him participating in the
program and agreed that we all can learn how to take care of
ourselves better why not!
-
He came with me
on my next appointment. He has been lifting weights since he was a
kid and really wasn't sure if he could learn anything new from
Just
Results.
He met with Holly & Lori and was very impressed with the
intelligence and knowledge that they shared with him.
-
We have gone
together and individually depending on our schedules since. We have
learned and keep learning many new things about ourselves. We have
excelled in our training routine as well as our nutrition. They have
given suggestions and ideas, do's & don't for each of us. During
this year we have traveled a lot and remained successful with these
new habits that we have developed.
-
Since my
husbands training regiment has change so drastically, he now has a
new goal and is working to compete in a bodybuilding contest. This
is something he has wanted to do since he was a teenager and now
will reach it with the assistance and dedication given to him by Just
Results.
-
We have each
past our 1 year mark and have been very successful. My husband has
lost 70 pounds and gained 2o pounds of muscle. His waist went from a
44' to a 32'. He now has 16 weeks left until his competition and the
changes have been and continue to amaze all of us.
-
I have lost 105
pounds and a total of 41.5 inches. I have dropped from a pants
size 26 to a comfortable size 14. I now have reached my struggling
point. I want to loose 25 to 30 more. Now the holidays are over and
I can concentrate on ME again, this is my new goal to reach by
summer.
We both have goals
that we are working for and
Just Results
to thank. I have worked on this letter for over
3 weeks. I keep typing and retyping because I wanted to express how
truly grateful I am to have my life back. We both feel healthier than we
have in so long. I can run and play with my kids, there’s nothing that I
won’t do now to enjoy every minute of our lives. There are things that
we have always wanted to do but physically couldn’t. This March as a
family we are going to go skiing for the first time. A year ago this
seemed like such an impossible feat!
The words THANK YOU
seem like two very small words for how deeply we feel for these two
women and this program
Just Results!!
THANK YOU Lori & Holly for our new life!!!
“The incredible
shrinking couple”

My Just Results Success Story
The reason for joining the Just Results Weight Loss Center is mainly due to my physician strongly suggesting that I get into a weight loss program immediately. Past experiences in other weight loss programs only proved to be short-term successes. I knew that I needed a nutritional program geared to me with personalized consultations. My weight loss began Jan of 2005 and has continued to this day. I have lost a total of 58 pounds and am a new person in the way I think about my food choices, how i feel and especially how i look. I love this program so much I highly recommend anyone to give it a try and not to give up. This program is so easy that i would be impossible to even consider quitting. You never go hungry, each nutritional meal is satisfying and there are no feelings of past poor eating habit cravings at all. You will never even want to have anything that you may think you "miss eating" because every meal that is nutritionally planned for you is enough to have. Exercise is also important, walking is an easy and also a gret way to achieve this. Remember, it is absolutely the best nutritionally sound, healthy and fabulous way of losing weight. I know that I will continue with this healthier and better way of eating forever. The program has changed the way I plan and make my food choices for the better and I am so happy that I am a member. Thank you Lori and Holly......... without you, I don't know what i would have done.

current: 141lbs
goal: 135 lbs
Okay....where to start...how do I get my thoughts across on such a life changing topic that I want to stop every person i see and say pssst..... i now know how to control my weight forever and so can you.
I want to share a bit of my background as to why this is so very important to me... have a couple of jobs...a busy busy family life...as we all do... and premenapause breathing down my neck... i was burning the candle at both ends.... then wham a life changing injury. After some time in a wheelchair and in PT i needed to be able to do something about my weight and diet, to say the least i was not very happy with myself and that affected everyone and everything in my life. i have a dear friend who had the "secret", she had joined Just Results the previous year and looked fabulous. we talked and i called...of course nervous....for years ago i had done the weight watchers routine to lose 10lbs but once i got off the "plan" i had gained it back...plus more! So i was bit skeptical...
entering the Just Results office i was nervous but meeting holly and then lori made me feel at ease the second we started talking....knowing right away they were going to be able to help, i had gotten myself there and they would help me lose the weight and gain control over my diet and eating patterns from this point onward, i was not alone anymore in this battle and they would help me win the war! i left the office that day equipped with my menu plan...their email address and phone numbers....what a support system!
walking to my car that cold february afternoon i just knew this was going to be such a good fit for me. as the weekd turned into a few months, the weight was coming off just like holly said ! i was feeling great...i had so much energy! i could fit into clothes i never thought i was going to be able to get into again and i was beginning to like me again. this holiday season has been so wonderful i have gotten so many compliments everywhere i go but best of all even when i stray a bit i know the secret "live life and lose" thanks to Just Results.

I would like to thank you for your program and helping me achieve my goal of getting down to 220 pounds.
Since I have been on your program I have been able to get off all the medication that I have been on and feel great with more energy than I have had in a long time.
Your program is easy to follow, your're counseling and help with planning my menus have paid off.
Your program along with the walking program that I started made for a successful outcome to the problem that I had and the new beginning for me.
I would like to say to anyone starting your program to remember that you need to set goals, be willing to start some sort of exercise program, drink plenty of water and follow the advice and guidance from the Just Results staff.
Again thank you for helping me achieve this and I am looking forward to work with you during my maintenance progam

With Just Results my consultant and I reached my goal of losing 30 pounds. I've tried every diet, diet pill and exercise program and nothing worked like Just Results. I would recommend this program to everyone. It's not a diet, its a change of your lifestyle. I may be 69 years old, but I feel like 40. No more aches, pains, high cholesterol or high pressure. I FEEL ALIVE AGAIN!!!! Thank you Just Results
Barbara B from Warwick RI
I started out at 208 pounds! I felt horrible, had no energy, I
couldn’t get out of my own way no matter how I tried. It was
terrible!! I knew it was time to do something; I just wasn’t sure what
to do. So, like everyone else I knew, I tried the “other” weight loss
programs. I started out alright but I could never lose more than two or
three pounds. This just wasn’t what I wanted. I couldn’t manage to
count calories from every little thing I made. I got tired of it and
just stopped. That is when I gained the most weight. At that point I
was at my worst. I had no self esteem and no self confidence. I
constantly whined about my weight, yet I never did anything about it.
Until talking to my sister one day .She told me about the program, how
it was working for her and she was losing weight every single week! I
literally watched my sister disappear on this program and thought, “if
she can do it then so can I”. So I made the call. I went in for my
first consult and I was horrified when I got weighed in. Talk about a
shocker!!!
Notice how I put everything in the PAST tense??? That is because I
have been on this program now for almost a year and I am down to 147
pounds slim and feeling great. I am working out on a regular basis and
my energy level has gone through the roof! I couldn’t have done it
without Just Results. This program really works. They teach you how to
eat right and get to know your body. I am so grateful for this program
and have told everyone I know about it.
The best thing about this program is how they CARE about you. This
isn’t just one of those programs where they give you a menu, and send
you on your way. These people put their hearts and soul into Just
Results and every bit of it shows! Take care of YOU and do what is best
for you by joining JUST RESULTS… It is exactly as the name states!

Just Results is the perfect name for
Holly and Lori. Seventy pounds and ten sizes smaller since
September 1st, 2005 is “just the results” I wanted.
Although I am still a work in progress, my life has changed. The
little things that people take for granted, like walking up a flight
of stairs or shopping were almost impossible for me. Standing for
any length of time was an effort. Now all that has changed. The
change is so dramatic that even my young grandchildren make comments
about how I run up stairs, and can stay out all day shopping and how
I can play with them now. After years of weight loss and then the
regaining of even more weight had taken its toll. No program seemed
to work, and then I was told about Just Results. I figured I had
nothing to lose but weight. Boy was I surprised…I am losing weight
but also learning how to eat, how to change my life. I am learning
a new lifestyle. How to enjoy life and still be healthy. Words
could never express the thanks and gratitude I feel for Holly and
Lori. Thank you both for putting a smile back on my face and for
making me feel better about myself. Please watch for my progress,
we will be posting pictures as I work towards my goal.
