MEET SHERYL

Sheryl believes that weight loss has many different components. One of the most important being changing the way you think. Where most diet programs talk solely about food, they do not address the underlying factor, which is changing your mindset. It all starts in the brain.

Addressing the food issues is about knowing when and what to eat, not skipping meals, being prepared, portion control, and realizing that all the little bites and tastes add up. Weight loss is all about choices. Wherever you go there will always be temptations, but in spite of that there is always going to be a good choice.

Thank You For Taking The Time To Meet Our Team

We have provided handouts that can help you while shopping at the different food stores and exchanges. Please view the available handouts by navigating to the top title menu and selecting the desired handout from the dropdown menu. When specific situations arise, we can provide assistance during your first trip to the supermarket. This will help you comprehend product labels and guide you in making informed choices in the future. Furthermore, if your family wishes to participate, we can arrange a home visit to assist in identifying the best food options and advising on what may not be suitable. This way, not only you but your entire family will gain a better understanding of the optimal snack choices. We have already done the work for you as a part of our plan to help you achieve success during our weight loss journey.
