Rachel H.: Week Three of REBALANCE

Checking in once a week is really perfect for maintaining focus.  Saw Carli, got my V-12 shot, and took at look at the InBody Scan.  Despite a bad day during last week, I was down again, losing 4.2 pounds of fat (how does the scan break that out from my lean body...

From REBALANCE Client, Rachel H.

There’s always going to be easy diet days and difficult diet days, and yesterday was a difficult one.  I’ve been trying to heal from some injuries, but had a set-back.  I was feeling discouraged and the pain was getting to me.  My usual MO was to grab a huge roast...

Rachel H.: Day #10 of REBALANCE

Rachel H.: Day #2 of REBALANCE

Starting last night, I’ve been having a Cheeseburger Craving.  First waking thought this morning – cheeseburger.  I probably gained a few pounds in the night dreaming of cheeseburgers. Plan A, visualizing healthy, slender self, was not making the thoughts go away.  I...

Rachel H: Day #1 of REBALANCE

Rachel H: Day #1 of REBALANCE My first day on the REBALANCE weight loss program is winding down, and overall it went well. I misjudged the calorie count a bit and did not eat enough at lunch and for my afternoon snack.  Was feeling hungry and a nauseous in the late...

Rachel H Shares Her REBALANCE Story Had my metabolic assessment appointment today with Carli. I really love the information in the InBody Scan printout. The good news is that the muscle and water percentages in me are good. And the bad news, well, I knew that already...
