A Dietitian Shares Her Story of the Transformation Program

The Personal Story of a Transformation Participant..
A Dietitian

I started Transformation to improve my Hemo A1C, which had been elevated since 2005. I had used the Bios Life fiber to lower my cholesterol for 7 years, and had lost some weight. I maintained a dress size 16, but had originally gone down to a 14 from a 16, sometimes 18. My cholesterol had been maintained for all of those 7 years, but now my Triglycerides were creeping up and I was increasing in my waist as before. When I saw my doctor in April of 2012, and he suggested that I was now considered Diabetic, that was my breaking point. I knew I was not going to take Metformin, which is an oral glycemic medication to lower blood sugar.

I knew about the Transformation, but did not think I needed to do because I am a Dietitian. I was thrilled when I saw my labs after the 13 weeks. Even though I have taught patients and clients that in order to stabilize their blood sugars, they needed to eat on time, and consistently. What I had not focused on was the impact of high glycemic index foods, and how they affect blood sugar.

In the past, it has not been the practice of the Dietitians to teach restricting high glycemic foods from patient’s intake for fear that most people don't know how to use this approach wisely.

The Transformation brought to the forefront all the data that I was already aware of, but was not using in a comprehensive way. I lost 6 pounds after the 13 weeks, my Hemo A1C went from 6.5 to 6.0, my Triglycerides went from 166 to 90, Glucose went from 131 to 104, my HDL went up from 48 to 51, the Cholesterol was minimal from 178 to 177.

I started out with a body fat of 41%. I continued doing the program on my own , and when I measured myself, and weighed myself in November , I had lost an extra 19 pounds , % body fat went down to 38%. The entire program, meals, exercise, sleep, water, and guidance on emotional eating, is so comprehensive and effective, it is fail proof if done correctly.

I get so many compliments about how good I look, it is no way I am going off the program. I am still eating the way I learned on the Program and improving each day. This is my lifestyle change for life. Praise God!!!
