I'm an independent OPTAVIA Coach. Here is my story:

Are you feeling overweight, tired, or simply unhealthy? Have you tried to lose weight and failed? You are not alone. Twenty three years ago I graduated with a fitness degree, taught body-walks & aerobics, an avid body builder and physically at my prime. Two years later I met my wonderful husband, and being a wife and mother became my primary focus. Year after year my weight increased slowly and steadily. Ten years ago, I decided that enough was enough and I began to work hard to get the weight off. I tried everything and I couldn't tip the scale. The stress of life kept the scale slowly climbing. Last spring I was introduced to Take Shape for Life (TSFL) and I was skeptical. My new dilemma was that my weight gain was so severe, that my feet began to have problems. Small tasks like going to the grocery store became a physical trial. I was too heavy to exercise, but needed to lose weight. So, I took the leap of faith and am so blessed that I did. I have currently lost 60 pounds and am halfway to my goal. I already feel great and my feet are doing much better. I signed up to be a health coach to help others achieve wellness as I finish the second half of my journey. What is TSFL? TSFL offers a simple solution: high-quality, medically formulated meal replacements combined with free coaching support to help you lose weight and keep it off. It is not a diet, but a two-phased approach for weight loss and maintenance. I can offer you a safe, effective, and non-intrusive option for weight loss and long-term health. Are you ready to choose health? If you have tried everything else, then what is stopping you from giving this a try? Join my team, take control of your own wellness and lets achieve success together.
