Donna lost over 23kg in 20 weeks - Life is great

I remember feeling stressed searching for the perfect outfit to wear to my son's wedding in November 2012.  I could not find the outfit I wanted because I was too large at the time.  I had let myself go.  I had put a further 8 kg on by August 2013 and finally was determined and ready to lose weight.

I always had a keen interest in reading health books on all types of ailments like allergies, thyroid, diabetes and hormone imbalance and was so excited when I discovered the Cohen's Program online.  I rang Margaret at the Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic in Chatswood immediately and after talking with her felt really positive about starting the program.

Dr Cohen's key aspects really made sense to me and I knew this was going to work.  I loved all the food offered whilst on the program and learnt quite quickly to think before stuffing food into my mouth and weighing all of my food really worked.  The other motivation was not getting on those scales for 4 weeks.  I was totally amazed and excited to continue when the scales read that I had lost 9.2 kg in 4 weeks.  The evidence was right in front of me and my clothes were starting to appear looser.

The next 4 weeks went really fast and another 5 kg dropped off.  This was when people started to make the comments - "You look good".

I am so happy I reached my goal weight within 4 months losing a total of 23.3 kg and now am in control of my body.  I have learnt to connect with my body when I am feeling dehydrated or hungry and recognise when I am nearly full.

I no longer binge eat and cannot thank Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic enough for providing me with all the valuable literature needed to accomplish my goal.  I can now quite easily stay on my maintenance plan for good.  The best part is not feeling guilty to eat whatever I want to.  I now love shopping for clothes and going to the beach and socializing with friends.  I can't believe I achieved such a fantastic result without changing my exercise plan (which is a 45 minute walk twice a week).  I want to start exercising now because I have so much energy!   

Life is Great!
