October 16, 2008
I was introduced to Transformations by a co-worker at a time when it was imperative that I lose weight. We were going to England in two months to visit my
husband’s family, many of whom I had never met before. I didn’t want to meet them looking like the Blob that ate Orlando! I lost 32 pounds in 2 months! Needless
to say, I was jazzed and feeling mighty fine when I stepped off that airplane.
I was worried about the 3 week break because 2 of those weeks was spent on vacation in a country where “Let them eat cake” isn’t just a quote, but a way of life.
I also had to extend my break to 6 weeks due to other scheduling conflicts. I was really scared that I would gain some of the weight back. Not only did I not gain
any weight, I had lost another 1½ pounds. That in itself tells me that I had learned better eating habits.
I recently started back on the shots and diet phase (Phase I) of the program. I know people hear “shots” and think, “Oh Yuck! I can’t do shots” but the truth is,
they aren’t anything to worry about. They certainly don’t hurt nearly as bad as having my eyebrows waxed! That little pin-prick is nothing compared to the benefits
you get from the shots.
I’m down a total of 40 pounds and still going strong! My goal is to lose 75 pounds, so I’m past my half way mark.
The co-worker who referred me to Transformations started out wearing a size 16 – 18, she now wears a size 6 and has lost 47 pounds. Our other co-workers have literally
watched us melt away before their eyes, and they are completely amazed.
If you’re considering trying Transformations, I highly recommend you go for it! It’ll change your life!

I was not one to try every diet in the book because I have heard and seen so many people just gain the weight back. Being a skeptic and all I did not think anything
would work, but in my heart I felt like going on the Transformation Diet program was the plan for me. I knew it was time to do something about my weight and my health.
So I walked in the Transformation Clinic on October 15, 2007 at the age of 41; weighing 310 lbs, wearing a size 28 pants, and an uncomfortable 3X shirt/blouse. As of
September 26, 2008, almost a year later, at the age of 42; according to my scales at home I have lost 92lbs, I am now wearing a size 18 pants, and a comfortable xlarge
shirt/blouse.
My short term goal right now is to have lost 100lbs before my anniversary date (the day I started this plan). My long term goal is to lose a total of
135lbs. I know I can do it.
Transformations has not only helped me along the way but my mind set has changed toward food and what I should and should not eat. This is just not a diet with the shots
and medication, it is a life style change. WOW!! I did not think it could be done.
Thank you Transformations, I can truly live again!

My name is Tonya. I was severely overweight and I had health problems. I had no energy so it was impossible to play with my kids. Then I found Transformations.
The people there are the greatest and the program is wonderful. They helped me with any problems or questions I had. When I started I was a size 18-20 and
weighed 221 lbs, now i'm down to a size 6-8 and weigh 148lbs.
Thanks Transformations for helping me live a healthier life!

Dear Transformations,
In January of 2008, I stepped on the scale and was horrified! I weight 128 and had never been that heavy in my life. At 5"1', with a small frame, I realized
I needed to regain control of my weight and eating habits.
A friend told me about Ttransformations, so I made an appointment. After hearing how easy the plan was, I signed up.
After six months of portin control, exercise and choosing the right foods, I have lost 20.6 lbs. I feel energized and better than I have in years! I have had
many compliments on my weight loss and had to buy all new clothes, which was fun! (I love retail therapy!)
My goal now is to lose two more pounds, keep the weight off and continue to eat nutritious, healthy foods.
Thank You Transformations Staff!

Dear Staff
Thank you so much for helping me change my life. This plan works! If I can do it, anyone can! My results were amazing! Now I can do everything I only wished
to do. I am active, I play with my daughter and I don't get tired. I can actually keep up with her. Thank you again for helping me transform my life and give
me a new beginning.
Sincerely,
Rose

I have tried so many weight loss programs since the birth of my children. The most I would lose would be 7, maybe 10 lbs. When I heard about Transformations from a
friend, of course I was skeptical. However, I decided "What do I have to lose?" So I called my sister and asked her if she would join with me. She, also, had her
reservations but chose to start the program. People used to be able to tell us apart - However, since we joined Transformations we look more and more alike. We enjoy
coming in for our weekly weigh-ins just to see how much weight we have lost. It is sort of a competition between us and both of us are winning!
Thanks Transformations!

I'm Finally Free! My sister and I have always competed in just about everything. Being identical twins puts us on an even playing field, but I have always been heavier
than her. No matter what I did she would always weigh less than me. So you know I was skeptical about joining another weight loss program just to watch her lose the
weight.
What a surprise! I'm losing the weight. I haven't felt this good, alive, free in years. I feel more confident in myself. I feel great!!! Thank you Transformations for
helping me find me - even though my sister still weighs less than me. I'm going to win a weigh-in one day!

I don’t know where to start. I started this program less than a year ago. When I started I was wearing a size 24 and weighed 256 pounds, I
never thought I could be where I am today. I have lost over 87 pounds and almost at my goal weight!!! I tried several other weight loss
programs with no results. I believe in Transformations so much that I have referred several of my friends to join. I could not believe the
difference in the amount of energy I have.
I get a lot of compliments and the best part is now I am the one getting noticed. I could go on forever naming all of the benefits, but I’ll
sum it up best by saying “Thank You Transformations for showing me a healthier lifestyle.”

I have heard that in our lives there are events and people that change the course of our lives. Coming to Transformations has been a defining event. I have tried
countless weight loss plans. I have lost and gained several hundred pounds. Having reached a point of discouragement and hopelessness, I considered bypass surgery,
the cost of this procedure created another seemingly impossible barrier. I was so frustrated I did not care about the risk or the potential complications.
As fate would have I noticed several of my co-workers had lost weight. I asked them what they were doing to lose the weight. Of all the programs mentioned, the Transformations
program stood out. I had hit rock bottom, sick and tired of being tired and feeling hopeless. There is a bible verse, Romans 1:2, that says "Don't be conformed to
the ways of this world. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may know the God's good, perfect and acceptable will." For the first time in my adult
life I am experiencing this transformation. I live my life looking for opportunities to invest in other people’s lives. So just imagine the billboard I am now. I've
lost weight, changed my eating habits and have a solid exercise plan. I hope that when people see me they know that they don't have to live trapped in their
hopelessness and despair. I pray that they will experience this transformation.

Transformations works. I have been on other diets and to see
nutritionists and dieticians for over 20 years, all that I ever lost was maybe 20-30
pounds that always came back and then some. Transformations has a supportive and
friendly atmosphere that has helped me feel like a new person. I thought I would try
the program for the first 8 weeks but, like other programs at first I didn't hold much
hope at the beginning which soon turned to elation because after only 3 weeks I had already
lost over 30 pounds. I haven't felt this good about myself for a long time. On my first day
I was at 330 lbs. and now I am in the 6th week of my 3rd 8 week phase. I am now a very active 219
lbs. and feeling great. Thanks to Transformations for the support and for helping me to achieve
a much happier and healthier life.
Sincerely,
Eric
Orlando, FL.

As I think about the past year and how my life has changed with Transformations,
I honestly don’t know where to begin. My weight had been a problem for most of my
life. Food had always been a major part of my life and I basically ate when I wanted
to without hesitation. Three family members of mine had been very successful with
Transformations and in the winter of 2003, I decided that I needed to do something
about my weight before I became even heavier. I was at least 100 lbs overweight
and was about to go up into the next clothes size. That had really done it for me
and seeing how successful my family members were with Transformations. I decided
to begin the diet on April 1, 2003 and a year and a half later, my life has changed
for the better. Over the past years, I have come close to my goal of losing 100 pounds.
I have learned how to eat right, and I also learned a lot about my body when it comes
to physical activity. Exercise has become such an important part of my daily life while
on and off Transformations. I have done things I would NEVER have imagined possible.
As I began dropping the weight, a colleague at work introduced me to running. I was really
intimidated by this because I knew I couldn't run very fast or for very long because of my
weight. I started off running for 30 seconds at a time and began to gradually increase my
distance. By the fall of 2003, I was getting very serious about my running. I was running
after school with this colleague, and hit my first mile! As the months went on, I gradually
increased my distance even more. In January of 2004, I entered a race for St. Patrick’s Day
in March. The distance was 3.1 miles, a traditional 5K. At the time, I was a little over a
mile and knew I had to increase my distance. By March 13, 2004, I had trained for the race
and completed the 3.1 mile race in 32 minutes and 15 seconds. I actually came in 2nd place
in my age bracket (15-29 years old). As I crossed the finish line, I have never been so
thankful for the help from Transformations. They made it possible for me. I never knew
that I had the will-power in me to train for a race. On that day, I also realized that
with the combination of their support and my determination to meet my weight loss goal,
anything was possible. I never imagined that I could have done this back in April of 2003.
I just figured that this was just another fad diet that would not work. I was totally wrong
and I would recommend Transformations to anyone!
My latest achievement took place on July 11, 2004. I entered another race, “The Boilermaker”,
in Utica, New York. This time I ran 9.3 miles (15K). I had built up to running 8 miles at a
time and this was the true test of my determination. I finished the 9.3 mile race in 94 minutes!
I realized that I am currently in the best shape of my life, at the age of 29. By achieving this
latest goal, and continuing to follow the Transformations program, I know anything is possible.
My next achievement is in the works, I may run in a half marathon in November in Philadelphia, PA!?
The staffs at Transformations have been a blessing. I don’t know where I would be today without
them?! My family members in the Winter Springs area have also been very supportive and also a
huge part in my success! If you are fed up with your weight and are seriously committed
to losing weight, Transformations will work for you too! I cannot say enough about Stacey and
all of the other staff member who work in the Oviedo office. They have helped me become a person
I never knew existed. You guys are the best – thanks a million!

I am writing to tell you about my success story. I have been attending your Oviedo Transformations
center since the end of March 2003. The six months before attending your weight loss center had
been an emotional landslide for me. I had learned that my dad was not feeling to well and the
long story short was that he died on St. Patrick's Day from pancreatic cancer. Losing my dad,
who to me was invincible, was my single most life altering experience. Weighing in at 209 lbs,
I was at my all-time heaviest. My chest burned all the time day and night, so I was popping
acid reducers on a regular basis. I got word of my 20th class reunion about 40 lbs, lighter
than I was. Within one week of starting my weight loss plan, I did not need the acid reducers
any more. Not only did I accomplish that goal, but also I was in better shape than I was for
my 10th reunion. I have currently lost 57 lbs and over 33 inches; I now weigh in at 152 lbs.
I was wearing size 18/22 clothes and now I wear 10/12 petites. Now I feel like a successful
business woman. When you feel successful, you feel like you have a sense of self worth and
become motivated. I now feel like I am somebody. My Mom asked me when I going to stop eating
this way and I told her that I had to change the way I was living and this is my new way of
life. I have finally realized; that nothing tastes as good as being thin feels. Stacey was
supportive to me not only in my goals for weight loss, but she is a friend that I can talk to
about anything. Every time I went to check out, Amanda always gave me a word of encouragement,
whether I lost weight, gained, or stayed the same. Stacey & Amanda have been a rock in my
relationship with Transformations. Their support keeps me honest with myself and weighing in
each week.
Respectfully,
Dawn
(A much happier person)

To Whom it May Concern:
I am writing to say “It really works!” I am so glad I got the courage to come and
see what it is all about. I was on my last straw for "diet schemes". I am walking, living
proof that Transformations is NOT a scheme. I was so depressed when I came to
Transformations' and I had a few minutes before my counsel session and I started looking
through the testimonial book and thought "Wow! I want to be in here"! I went from a size
16 to a size 6-7 and lost over 30 pounds! I feel wonderful. The first thing I saw disappearing
was the fat rolls on my back! I think almost every woman hates those! I saw it melting away!
I saw my before picture and was like..."Wow! Is that me?!" Another thing I did when I started
losing weight was get rid of my "Excuse Clothes" (you know...the clothes that are too big and
you wear them when you other ones start to get snug). Eliminate your excuses and believe in
yourself! I did and the people at Transformations definitely do! I will promote them till the
last breath goes out! Thank you to everyone there!
Sincerely,
Shari

Dear Transformations;
I can’t express how happy I am today, after losing 100 lbs. in eight months. Today, I feel like
a new person.
I would like to thank my family and friends for encouraging me to get into this diet, especially
Amanda, Stacey, and the staff of Oviedo’s Transformations office.
You don’t have to change your lifestyle, just the way you eat.
God Bless,
Carlos

I have always struggles with my weight. Over the past 10 years I became heavier than
I ever had been. Not only was my health at risk, but I hated myself. I finally got
to the point where I couldn't takeit anymore and I had to do something about it.
That’s when I went to Transformations. I have tried hundreds of different diets and
I would always gain back the weight I lost and then some. With Transformations it’s
different, the diet teaches you how to eat right. I had to learn to change my eating
habits. I have been going to them for 10 months now and have gone from 263 to 160 lbs
and have lost 78½ inches.
Thanks Transformations for giving me a new life.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Since the birth of my daughter in 1994, I have been on an upward weight gain
spiral. I have tried numerous diets such as liquid diets, fasting, cabbage
soup diet, cayenne pepper, lemon and maple syrup concoctions. You name it,
I tried it. As soon as I would resume my normal eating pattern, the weight
would come back with double the vengeance.
In April of 2003, I weighed 201 lbs and I was uncomfortable fitting into a size
18. I knew I had to do something quickly. A work associate confided in me about
a weight loss program she used that works. I was very skeptical because of the
laundry list of programs I have tried in the past. I was also a bit concerned
about injecting anything into my body. After thorough research, I scheduled a
meeting.
My visits were always pleasant and I was excited to see the weight and inches
leave my body. When I started the program, I was on a 2 week vacation. I went
from 201 lb, size 18 body to a 170 lb, size 10 body within 6 months. I must admit
that I did not hold true to the diet plan on a daily basis. I have never
encountered a program such as this that I saw such a visible change so quickly.
Although I am not wearing my teenage size 4-6, I am extremely happy with the
results I obtained from Transformations. I am no longer on the program, however
with exercise and proper eating pattern, I am on my way to maintain a healthier
lifestyle. Transformations helped me to achieve a smaller frame as well as taught
me better eating habits, which I now use regularly.
Thanks to the wonderful staff for all the encouragement and support they provided
to me over these months.
Sincerely,
Andrea

To the Lake Mary Staff of Transformations,
I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me to reach my
weight-loss goal! Your knowledge, energy and friendly faces each week was not
only encouraging, it made me strive even harder to get there!
Like so many other people, I wasn't ableto lose all the weight after the birth of
either of my children and have tried dozens of diets over the years. I would lose
a good amount but never get back to what I used to be...just close enough and then
stop. That’s when it would quickly pile back on. Transformations is a very structured and
precise diet, but it is also the only one that has made me feel this wonderful! I
saw results the very first week, and every week afterwards. That in itself makes
you want to go further and further! My family also thanks you for helping me go
from a tight size 16 to a comfortable size 6! For the first time in may years, I
thoroughly enjoyed having to go out and purchase new clothes! My husband is glad
to have his spunky wife back, and as for my kids...this is a totally new, energized,
younger looking mom that they have never known.
The compliments and responses from family members, friends and neighbors has been
very uplifting and a huge encouragement to remain this way! Again, many thanks
to each of you!
Sincerely,
R.N.
