Jen Gets Serious about Her Weight Loss
When Jen started True You Rx on February 14, 2022, she weighed 209 pounds. In addition to taking her medication, Jen introduced regular gym workouts into her routine. She started slowly with low-impact workouts and built from there. Five days a week, Jen went to bed at 9:30pm so she could wake up at 5:45am to prepare for her workouts. She would also go the gym on Saturdays.
“Along with medication and the team support, this exercise routine was integral to my weight loss,” Jen says. “I made myself a priority again, and then the scale finally started to move.”
Amazing Success for Jen with the True You Rx
In less than six months, Jen has lost 46 pounds with True You Rx. During her journey, Jen started to feel most motivated when she could tell her clothes were fitting differently. Down from a size 14 to a size 8, Jen was thrilled when she enjoyed a shopping trip with her daughter and finally fit into a pair of lululemon leggings.
“The True You team helped me figure out what I needed to do to keep the weight loss going, and it was like a light bulb finally went on,” Jen says. “I owe so much to True You and what this program has done for me.”
Additionally, Jen relates that being able to eat her own food, track calories the way she wanted to, and mentally monitor her own food intake—instead of being forced to complete a detailed daily journal or enter it into an app, was key to her success. Jen realized the rigidity of other weight loss programs had never matched her needs.
“Having to track calories and other nutrients as if it was a part-time job was not something I was interested in doing ever again because I knew I couldn’t keep it up for the long-term,” Jen explains. “True You said that I should do whatever worked best for me, and if I was having success, to stick with it and keep going. When someone asks me if it has been hard to lose weight with True You, I can honestly say no. For the first time in my life, losing weight has actually been easy and stress-free—and I feel like I can keep it up because it fits my life. Throughout the process, the team has also been extremely encouraging and flexible, especially Kathleen [bariatric dietitian and nutritionist] and Kristen [nurse practitioner], who have been fabulous!”
In addition to achieving better health, Jen’s inspiration for losing weight has always been her family and children.
“I want to be there for my children—I don’t want to be a mom who can’t be active or do things with my kids because I am unhealthy or overweight,” Jen concludes. “Thanks to the True You Weight Loss team, I feel better than I have in a long time. I love this program and what it has done to transform my life and my body.”
