Allison’s Wellness Success at InShape MD
I started the Countdown Program about 2 1/2 months ago and have lost 35lbs. I have learned that I can control what I put in my mouth and that it can be very empowering to control your eating habits. Losing weight with HCG has been great because of how the weight comes off; you can see the difference in a completely good way. And, through the weight loss, less than a pound was muscle, which is what makes the results look so different.
I feel very fortunate to have a coach through the process, which helps with the emotional aspects both good and bad. In my case, I have had the good fortune to have 3 coaches. Each one has provided a different perspective that has been helpful for different challenges along the way. I never imagined I would do a diet a like this as it requires a real commitment, but with the support of my coaches, I have not felt like I was alone, at any point.
