I wasn't really interested in losing weight in the past and always was active. A nutritionist even told me my weight was fine and having a little "extra" as we age is beneficial. But a cardiologist said I should lose some weight, and my desire to look and be more healthy kicked in. I had hoped to lose 20 pounds with permanent changes of habits. When I found MyBodyTutor, everything about the program attracted me. I lost 21 pounds and got a great bill of health from my doctor last month. Some people say it is hard to lose weight as you get older, but the weight came off steadily for me over around five months, and I will be 75 years old in July 2024. I've been out of the program now for months and the weight stays off. I am considering losing another five pounds using the same techniques I've learned. I did MyBodyTutor simultaneously with in-depth therapy. The two reinforced each other. Before I started this work, I was very out of touch with my body, and I lacked motivation to look better. Right now I am no longer in the program, but I maintain the habits I learned, particularly much more conscious eating (which entails A LOT of learning) and drinking lots of water. I always exercised, but now I hate it when I miss a day or two and walk, swim, do pilates, and weight lifting. The philosophy of MyBodyTutor is realistic in terms of what it takes to really change long-term habits and an understanding that it takes a person time and a lot of personal support to get to the roots of some of the reasons behind an unhealthy lifestyle that one wants to change but can't. To me, this is a really excellent program to not only lose weight but also to come to know yourself better. Once you come to understand your choices, your triggers, your misconceptions about weight loss, and your sabotaging behaviors, you can really change them permanently. And the secret sauce of MyBodyTutor are the people involved. I was matched with a tutor whom I liked and respected very much and whose personality and style clicked with mine. And Adam and Haley are dedicated, always interesting, and reinforce the philosophy of the program constantly through videos and emails, as well as the training and support of personal tutors. I recommend this program if you are looking for lasting change instead of quick fix where the old habits will probably rear their ugly heads again when life happens.
