There is nothing more motivating than a successful weight loss story. Everyone is taken back by the transformation, whether you are dieting or not. As humans we are wow'd by it!
Check out the transformation my beautiful niece has gone through. She dropped 48 pounds!!!! She looks absolutely stunning. I am extremely proud of her dedication and commitment to her diet. She did a 360 on her eating plan and has turned to healthier bites and a diet that she could stick too. She wanted it and was ready for a change. Her success has made her somewhat of a celebrity; she's been featured on a few good morning talk shows in her Texas home town. Losing weight is not easy. You have to give up all the things that you fell in love with, that aren't so weight-loss friendly. You're exposed to all of it during your weight-loss journey and there are days when the weight may not even budge and you haven't deviated once from your diet. Patience, dedication, will power and not allowing anything to get in your way, is how you achieve the goal that my niece achieved. Her confidence is through the roof and how much fun is she having shopping for new clothes!!! Brooke, you will be an inspiration to many!

"redtangerine provides more than just an exercise regimen. Coach Teresa takes on your own weight loss goals as her own, which in turn motivates the client to achieve their own goals with Teresa cheering you on the entire way. She invests time and energy in customizing workouts for your specific goals; she provides food counseling, as well as recipes designed to fit your dietary needs.
I have always been a woman with weight issues and never believed that I could ever lose the weight and keep the weight off. As a 30 year old professional, I knew that I wanted a different body, but was unable to attain the body that I wanted. I have tried working with personal trainers in the past, where I have lost some weight, but was unable to achieve any permanent weight loss. When I first met Coach Teresa, I weighed 205 lbs and had a 45 inch waist. She asked me two questions at our first meeting: (1) "What is your goal weight?" and (2) "How committed are you?" I stated that my goal weight was 180 pounds, but I had never really been able to get less than 195-200 lbs. I also answered her second question with "Sure, I am pretty committed," all the while thinking, "there is no way I will ever make it to 180 lbs even with working out and eating healthy." A mere five months later, I weigh 179 lbs and lost over 17 inches and am still losing consistently. I went from a size 16-18 to a size 12. Her training has not only taught me about healthy eating and increased my endurance levels; It also has changed the way I feel about myself. I am more confident and determined to continue to lose weight with Coach Teresa inspiring and educating me. I owe all of that to Teresa...she not only was my personal trainer; she became my biggest advocate and clearly was a huge factor in me seeing the results that I have always wanted to see during my lifetime. I highly recommended Teresa as a fitness coach that will hold you accountable, but also provide you guidance to incorporate fitness and healthy eating into your lifestyle long-term. Her fresh attitude and commitment to your individual goals makes her an excellent personal trainer." Alia - Attorney at Law, San Francisco Bay Area "I am a 25 year old female that has always struggled with weight and self image. Even when I was young I had family telling me “you shouldn’t eat that, you need to be more active, no one is going to like you if you get any bigger.” I have always been a confident woman in my career but I have never been confident when it comes to how I look. Because my family was always on my case, I never mentally was able to commit to a weight loss regime. I tried diets and lost weight but would gain it all back or quite for one reason or another. I would work out on and off but never stay consistent.
I went to the doctor in the beginning of August and when I weighed in, it was the highest I have ever seen it, 224 pounds. I had to do something but was not even sure how to start. I went out with some friends a few weeks later and completely lost it; I had absolutely no self confidence and had a major melt down. My friend Dustin asked me what was up and I confessed that I hated how I looked and that I didn’t feel beautiful at all. He called redtangerine right away to see what they could do to help me. He had been working with Coach Teresa for over three months and had been very successful with meeting the goals he had set; dropping from 18% body fat to 14% body fat. I figured, well, if he was willing to help me, then I should see what this was all about. I called Teresa and set up a meeting. That day I called Teresa changed my life forever. I decided never again will I see myself this way. Teresa and I met on Wednesday August 19th and I started my diet that day even though I wasn’t actually starting with redtangerine until Saturday. I lost three pounds in two days when I had my official weigh in. I had committed to a full month of working with Coach Teresa and was going to see from there where I was. We discussed what my short term and long term goals were. First I wanted to be below 200 pounds but my ultimate goal is to be 140 pounds. At my first weigh-in I was 219 my bust was 47 ¾ inches, my waist was 40 ½ and my hips were 47 inches. My first workout was intense, I wasn’t sure what I was getting myself into but I knew that I needed to stay committed. Teresa is one of the most encouraging people I have ever worked with. She pushed me and was my advocate. She fought for me and I knew that she was really there for my success. I committed to a diet plan that had worked for me in the past. I had Teresa look it over and she approved. With the combination of Teresa's well planed workouts and my diet, I was extremely successful. In four short weeks I lost 16 pounds, 2 ¾ inches from my bust, 5 ½ from my waist and 2 ½ inches from my hips. After I had worked with Teresa for four weeks I decided to join a gym and continue working-out on my own. She gave me the strength and determination to change my life. I cannot believe that I was as successful as I was. Now it has been seven weeks and I have met my mini goal and then some. Teresa is still just a phone call away and I hear her in my head every time I am at the gym. She is an amazing Coach and I am so glad that I had a chance to work with her." -Kristen - Bank Manager, Rancho Cordova, CA |
