It is so wonderful to have my life back!

Ever since adolescence I have struggled with my weight. I’ve been on all the diets, even – what sounds so ridiculous to me now – the Dolly Parton diet and the cabbage soup diet! I’ve been to Weight Watchers seven or eight different times and Jenny Craig too. Nothing ever seemed to work. Sure I lost a few pounds here and there but I always inevitably put it back on … and more.

I knew I couldn’t continue this way and finally found a program that made everything finally make sense: the Transformations program at the St. Helena Center for Health. Participating in this 11-day residential program, I realized I really didn’t know what it was like to live a healthy lifestyle. I’m an intelligent woman and know the theory about calories in and calories out but had no concept that living a balanced and healthy lifestyle was more than that.

I learned that it’s not just food that your body needs, but good food. And I learned what good food is. And through other classes there and the counseling sessions, I began to come up with strategies to help me get through emotional situations without having to turn to food out of desperation.

I am proud to say that I have lost this weight once and for all! I remain successful with this change because I continue to mimic the life Transformations showed me how to live.
