Testimonial : Marian Fortner
Dear Sandra,
It is with the greatest pleasure that I write you this testimonial. I am a typically over-committed businesswoman, working 12 to 14 hour days regularly. I am also 54 years old, and middle-age spread had spread to my waste line! What to do? I don’t have time for exercises, I barely have time to walk the dog…….
I visited Sandra and heard about her Lean for Life programme. Our first appointment all we did was talk: about my goals (lose 10 lbs and get rid of that tummy), and Sandra educated me on the workings of my metabolism. Thanks to Sandra’s advice on how to structure my eating throughout the day, incrementally eliminating certain unhealthy things, incrementally increasing the healthy things, I feel that without any inconvenience I managed to lose that weight in 3 months, and I felt so good I started putting exercise at the top of my agenda, not last, as was my old way of doing things.
Then I went on holidays for 7 weeks: that’s 7 weeks of restaurant food, and 7 weeks of not having a predictable routine. Lo and behold, because of Sandra’s commonsense approach (the 80/20 rule) and her exhortation for ‘mindful eating’, I only gained 2 lbs but still lost 1/2 inch over the course of my holiday. This was the first holiday in my entire life where I felt so comfortable in my bathing suit, I even bought a form-fitting dress and had my old clothes altered. I feel great, I feel sexy, I feel so positive and full of energy!
So, there you have my story: I have realized that even if I enjoy something that is not really good for me, I can stay on track by adjusting my lifestyle that same afternoon, or the next morning. All is not lost. Thanks to Lean for Life and Sandra Froher I have embarked on a new phase for the rest of my life: healthy, happy, and enjoying life to the fullest.
