Just over a year ago, nearing my 50th birthday, I started to realize that if I didn’t get serious about my health, I might not enjoy the years to come as much as I would like.

So I joined a gym, signed up for personal training and was fortunate enough to meet Dimitri Giankoulas, who guided me through nutrition counselling which has changed my life!

My intention was to get fit and feel better. I never thought of myself as overweight, nor did my friends and co-workers. But after I lost 35 lbs. I realized that I was carrying a lot of unnecessary baggage. I am barely 5′1″ and 35 lbs represented 25% of my total weight!

I went from 37% body fat to a lean 22.5%, from a size 12 to a size 2 and I feel and look amazing! I have more energy than I did in my 20’s and have been told I look 15 years younger. I walk taller, present myself with more confidence and know now that I can do just about anything I desire.

Dimitri showed me that even though I was eating healthy, I was eating the right foods at the wrong times of day. Here’s the best…. I was able to eat more than I did before, and lose weight and over a year later, maintain the weight and the “feel good” lifestyle. Anyone who hasn’t undergone a personal transformation like I did can’t really understand how incredible the experience can be.

While attending one of Dimitri’s group nutrition sessions, listening to all the naysayers and complainers, I stood up and made the following comment. “If all of you knew how to lose weight by yourself, you would not be here in the first place. Pay attention and make yourself a slave to the information being given to you, live by it word for word and watch the results. You will be amazed what a professional can do for you. I am living proof!
