I am actually a really healthy person. I am a runner and was eating fairly healthy. I didn't have that much weight to lose, but the ten pounds I wanted to lose seemed stuck. I wasn't having success getting rid of it and had kind of decided that I just needed to learn to be happy at that weight. I am aging and thought that I was at a point in life where I could be happy with where I was. I learned about MyBodyTutor from reading Gretchen Rubin's book. I am a huge fan of hers and felt that it was worth taking a look at if she recommended it. Before starting, my hopes were to develop healthy habits that I could stick with throughout my life. I was a bit worried about spending the money and wasn't confident that I would get the results I was hoping for. I am the world's biggest skeptic. Part of me was sure this program wouldn't work for me, and I would be the one asking for the money-back guarantee. However, from the first day, I committed to completing all parts of the day-to-day check-ins and recordings that were available. I was so surprised because it did work. The involvement of my tutor was the biggest part of my success. Not only did she provide me with feedback on what I was eating, but she also helped me with strategies to deal with high-stress life issues that I was going through. Without her coaching, I am confident I could easily have resorted to using food to deal with the emotional impact of these events. I didn't need to make major changes to my current habits. A few minor tweaks like increasing my vegetable intake and focusing on more whole food choices made all the difference for me. After a number of months of making healthy choices, they have become my habits as opposed to exceptions. The biggest difference between MyBodyTutor and everything else I had tried is the one on one tutoring and accountability. Hands down, my tutor was the most positive part of the program and the reason for my success. Now, I am at a weight I am perfectly happy with. My goal was to lose 10 pounds, and I have lost 15. I am more confident. I find that my workouts and running are stronger at this lower weight. My clothes fit better, and I feel lean, which benefits my overall outlook. I eat so many more unrefined foods as a result and have really upped my vegetable intake. I also have been able to end my nightly snack habit. With her expertise, I have lost not only the ten pounds I had hoped to but an additional five. I know this may not sound like much weight in the weight loss world, but I can tell you it has made a world of difference to me. I love that your program is based on research-based practices that allow individuals to live in the real world. I am thankful I found your program and believe I have embedded healthy practices into my day-to-day lifestyle and can stick with them. Thanks for all you do, all the positive messages, and most of all, for employing such a wonderful tutor.
